Hi Jon, Those sound like good honest assessments of what is going on. It is great that they are telling you what is happening which is half the battle. They sound like a great team there at the hospital. And its good that you are your normal cheerful self.
All the very best for the ops; and let us know how you get on.
Cheers for now,
Tony.

Very best of luck Jon.

As others have said, your sense of humour seems intact and the medical professionals are communicating with you clearly and honestly.

Will be thinking of you.

Good luck to you Jonners a friend is having the same and is now recovering from his op that took 19 hours! He is looking well if a little battered.
Diane and I will be thinking of you.

Just to keep you all informed and say once again how much I appreciate all your support in its various forms....

I had surgery om Wednesday and in some ways it went well. It was done "keyhole" and they managed to remove quite a bit of liver disease using radio frequency oblation.

A bit less positive in some ways is that the disease spread in my peritoneum was worse than anticipated and had not really shown up well on the last scan. So its now a wait for histology results and a new treatment plan. I expect to be referred to St Mary's in Paddington for that to take place and it will involve some combination of chemo and more clever surgery.

So I'm grateful that the surgery took place and that they got the chance to find stuff in time to do something about it.
I also feel very encouraged at how quickly the recovery from keyhole surgery is taking place. I feel pretty fit, although not yet up to
diving under bonnets for a while. It was nice to be home again much sooner than expected and I reckon the liver work has made a difference to my digestion too.

The roller coaster of cancer treatment carries on...but I'm not riding it alone...:-)

Wishing you and your family all the best in these trying times.
Its always difficult to understand what is going on between your head and body, however you seem to be in great hands.

See it as a bit of payback for all the times you have contributed to this forum, getting people out of their own spot of bother.
All the best for a speedy recovery.
