He is in day surgery as I type. Alan is Stage 4 and the Tumor is obstructing the esophagus. He has lost so much weight that the Medical Oncologist said he is too fragile for Chemo or Radiation therapy. We are supose to go to the CC on the 11th of JUly to be re-evaluated. I so hope he will gain some energy and be less dehidrated with the PEG. I know this is terminal this time but I would so like him more comfortable. He chokes when ever he tries to swallow anything. | | |
