Operation Day

Two weeks to go and the nerves are kicking in. Until this morning I was convinced that the operation was the right way to go. Then I read all the information that we are given from the team. Nightmare scenarios comes to mind.

I know I have to go through with the op, just millions of thoughts going through my head.

Now of for yet another endoscopy to see if previous stomach op has affected the aortic blood supply, as if I know what that means. Good luck to you all out there.

Hello John

You wouldn’t be ‘normal’ (I put that in quotes because I’m not sure what normal is any more!) if you weren’t anxious about the op and the more you hear and read the more the nerves will get to you.  

It’s so hard but try to see the positives, all being well in about a month’s time you could be home and cancer free, that thought alone has to fill the glass more than half full…..and then there’s the rugby to look forward to, maybe not this year but in the future.

Take care. J x

The op is a maybe now as the angio gram I had last week identified that there is an issue with the blood supply. Having another angi something on Thursday to further investigate. Have to stay in on Wednesday for this.

It maybe the chemo radiotherapy route for me.

Hoping for the best for you John ,
