@tomrennie day 3 post opp. Im hanging in as well as I can. Again so difficult to see a loved one endure what cancer throws. Ty so much for checking in . Whipple was 6 hrs . No further resection of large Artery or veins for they were clear from the tomor. Excuse my medical terms for I lack in understanding most of what I read in his follow up. So a successful removal of the tumor. All margins clear. ( Which I've learned means no cancer) Being honest he's In rough shape. Yet I feel this is positive news about how things went smoothly. He sat in a chair yesterday for an hour. Been having struggles of which I'm preying resolve in time. Think walking will of course help with some things. Maybe today. My inability to secure a cup of coffee is key to keeping it together 🙃 It's my goal for this morning. Again ty all for the support.
