If you believe in prayer
 

Please say one for my father-in-law today. He's having some pretty major surgery and we're all very concerned. Even though my husband and I are having rough times, I still have alot of respect for his father and am pretty worried about this whole situation.

Consider it done!

Thinking of you all.

I do and I will :)

Sending vibes of peace love and healing his way.

lonelyarmywife,

Yes mam. Shall do.

:wish: Will include him in my prayers.

:angel: :console:

Done.

Done.

Yep.

Sending healing vibes your way!

Got lots of prayers from here. Pray all goes well.

Any update on the surgery?

Hope all went well!!

Surgery was pretty extensive, but went well. All told he was under the knife for about 7 hours. They removed parts of his liver, his gallbladder, three lymph nodes and about a foot of rectum/colon/intestine. He has a permanant colostomy.

He is recovering well, but is still very heavily medicated. The doctors have assured us that they got all the cancer for now, but that it will return in the future, which is the VERY bad news. But the organ tissue that they left looks very healthy, and some of it will regenerate.

He is in ICU for now but should be in a regular room in the next few days.
