Find another oncologist - one who cares. My husband landed in hospital for 4 weeks and had 3 emergency surgeries to deal with damage to his gastrointestinal system caused by radiotherapy. He had been intubated, rigged to more machines than I can count in ICU. His recovery is out of the hands of the oncologist but she put together a team of 7 doctors/surgeons/ansesthetists/radiologists to treat and look after my husband. And she has visited my husband every day of the last 4 weeks. Quickly find another oncologist- there will be one who cares.

Can you explain what happened with the radiotherapy? Did they somehow hit is colon or intestines?
