Unfortunately Ray isn't doing so well. I keep thinking back to his RC when he was walking up and down the ward 3 times a day on the 3rd day and fit to leave hospital on day 7 . This time he has shuffled from bed to chair only on day5. He is suffering from paralytic how is which many of you will know about and is vomiting so they've put him back on a drip and nil by mouth. The dreaded ng tube is ready if they need it. He's really suffering with the new stoma 2 nephrostomy tubes and the hernia repair and I can't get anywhere near. His mood is not too great either. I knew it would be hard but comfort on the phone is just not enough. Sorry for the self pity in my voice I'm finding it very hard to cope. Thanks for listening
Hi Jenny. It is understandable how you are feeling. Not being able to be with Ray must be really hard, and it must be hard for him not having any visitors. Still early days yet and although he is having a tough time of it, he is in the best place and will be very well looked after. Best wishes.
