Hospital again

Less than one minute read time.

Well my pops ended up back in hospital yesterday because his stents blocked AGAIN. Hes fed up as its only been 9 days since it was last unblocked but the tumour is growing that fast it keeps covering it. He hates going in but its the best place for him even though he hates the food and being away from home.

On the plus side his brother in law has arrived even though he had problems due to the snow so i know he will be eager to get home to see him so lets hope they unblock it today and we get to put a big smile on his face.

    Hi blackbun

    I know how you feel its like a rollercoaster and the waiting is awful. My pops had trouble with the stent from the start and its awful to watch them go through this. I hope your husband will get sorted soon as i know how frustrated they get with this. My pops lost 5 and a half stone now and shows no signs of putting it back on.

    Im thinking of yous and take care.

    Hi Elgee yeah im glad bill arrived safely, he didnt get to see my pop today as he was jet lagged and hes also in his 70s but i rang him off my mobile when i went to see pop so he got to talk to him which made him a happy man.

    Im keeping as strong as possible for pop and its so nice when he appreciates it even though he doesnt have to. We had a good chat today and he was in high spirits he was so pleased to see me and just kept telling me how much he loved me and that he is grateful for everything i do for him. The best of it is i dont do anything im just there for him as hes always been there for me, hes such a gentle and kind man its unreal.

    Thanks Elgee and take good care.

    P.S Hows things with you, I hope your keeping ok. xx
