Steve’s surgery went well yesterday, his oncologist replaced the gtube w a Gj tube, hopefully this won’t give as much trouble. His oncologist said he has only seen 2-3 cases of great problem like his, he is probably in his 70s.
Btw, his surgery lasted for 6.5hrs yesterday, they removed tissue from bottom soft palate, reconstruct the area using skin from his arm.
Thanks again, everyone.
