Hi Elizabeth, members have often shared that they join Mayo Clinic Connect for one reason or diagnosis and then find over time that they are several groups relevant to them and their family and friends. You can see the complete Group Directory here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/groups/
Esophageal cancer is a challenging diagnosis to be sure I hope your son-in-law might consider joining the discussions in the Esophageal Cancer group and/or joining the monthly support group meetings.
All the best for your son’s surgery on Thursday too. What is his surgery?

I suggest short visits with anyone that is recovering from esophagectomy. It’s extremely tiring and need a lot of time dedicated to either tube feedings or when able to actually eat, they must eat VERY slowly, chew excessively and frequent small meals. Visits over an hour interrupt the nutrition schedules.
