Hi Everyone
Just a quick update on Derek's Progress, he had his total Gastrectomy on May 24th, after a long hard road he is now looking fantastic, he is feeling good, and he is eating vitually anything and the portion sizes are a good size, certainly not tiny portions like he was having just after his op.
He had 3 months chemo before the op and started chemo after op but has had to stop as it was affecting his heart, he had a heart attack 2 years ago and is on a cocktal of drugs so best to stop chemo now, we dont want another attack.
All we can do now is hope that no cancerous cells broke away in surgery and that he will be back to himself in no time at all and hopefully we can put this nightmare to the back of our minds.
Hope everybody else out there is well and winning the battle.
Steph
