Last week's surgery at Sarah Cannon: The doctor said Glen's opening was severely restricted AGAIN. The doc stretched it ... again... and placed a temporary stent [which is only allowed to be in there for a max of 6 weeks] with strict orders of 'DO NOT THROW UP' or the new stent may come out. The first couple of days he still threw up some - but less frequently - and significantly less frequently now. He still has a lot of acid and some other issues, but he is eating regular food with more frequent smaller meals and has even gone a couple of nights without having to supplement the nutrition with nightly tube feedings.
Yesterday's surgery: The docs successfully put a in a port in his left shoulder/chest area. They said he would be in a lot of pain for a day or two. Glen is scheduled to start his chemo next Monday, July 9th.
Thank you for your current and continued support and prayers!!
We hope you all have a great 4th of July as we are all blessed to live in this country!
