Hi @dawnkoehn, you must be very worried. Did he have surgery for esophageal cancer or another condition? Is he in the hospital now?

He had surgery to remove a diverticulum and widen his stomach opening. This was his second surgery, the first doctor thought it was a hernia and it wasn't. The second surgery they went through his back between 2 ribs and deflated his lung. He was in the hospital for that because of fluid buildup.
He isn't in the hospital right now, but yes, I'm very worried.
