Hi Everyone:
Long story short, Jim can't move his bowels, and he keeps throwing up.
The tumor may be pressing on nerves that make the bowel muscles function, hence nothing is moving. Or there could be an obstruction, which they don't think is the case, based on other tests.
The GI guy wants to go down and look. Problem is, all that air could cause Jim's duodenum to perforate. Result. They do an emergency surgery to save Jim, but he couldn't get chemo, and his white blood cell count and red blood cell count is low, and Jim dies. STUPID.
However, I don't know what the alternative is. Could they just let him go, or would that cause worse problems? I'm scared to death, and so weary. Please pray for wisdom and protection.
Love Gloria
