He had throat surgery last week and im worried about him he’s nil by mouth and is on morphine and antibiotics for an infection. Should hopefully find out where the infection is soon. He has high temp and chest pain and can’t even walk out of his room without it being too much. Im wired tonight worrying so much nobody knows yet what is wrong. I hope he gets better soon.
Although i can barely cope with seeing anyone including family i still love them all. I was very close to this brother growing up and we shared same sense of humour
Just to let everyone know ive been considering deleting this account. It doesnt seem as supportive as the old forum was. But i will see
I hope that your brother gets better ASAP and im sorry for your stress of watching him suffer.
Prayers sent your way
This is a very slow time of day. Not as many members are on at this time as other times of the day and there’s fewer total members on the entire forum site in general as the other forum had. That may explain why no one answered. I’m sorry about your brother, I hope he’ll be OK. Give people a break, this is actually a very supportive site.
Praying for your brother ![]()
I’m praying too @Ducky
Hope all will be well
Hope your brother comes out ok
I guess your right @77nick77 it is a big change having fewer people on this forum that must be it
Im worried about him i got some sleep in the end. I have a blood test for pdoc later. I will update y’all with any news thanks for caring
Forum has been slow after the weekend…
My brother had a ct scan last night showed a small puncture to his oesophagis. Dont know if it will heal by itself. And not sure where his infection is. Its scary tbh
I am sending good thoughts and wishes your way for you and your brother. I hope he heals soon and you are able to rest easy ![]()

I am so sorry I completely missed this thread somehow. I really hope your broth were pulls through. How are you holding up? I’m so sorry for both you and him.
I hope things turn out well for your brother. Keep us posted! Sending positive vibes your way!
May your brother find recovery and may you find peace of mind through this stressful time. I know this might sound trite or like I’m simplifying things but really try to search for the silver linings in this terrible situation. This is a clear signal from the universe that you two need each other more than ever right now. Make sure he knows just how deeply affected you are by his condition. Never give up. Sending lots of love to you and your brother, Ducky, and Ducky’s brother.
Thankyou so much @DireStraightsJacket yes i love him
Thanks @Lilyofthevalley & @Sunshine
My brother is off the morphine and oxygen. He’s nil by mouth still but having nutrition feeder. He is able to sit up and walk around now
Its just i dont know whether the puncture to oesophagus will heal or if he needs another operation? Will keep you updated. Ive been very upset over the whole thing. He has a wife and teenage daughter, my neice. He works very hard.
My mental health has been worse this week and feeling very tired im just down atm too
Well it sounds like they’re taking care of him. I hope he heals fully and quickly. I’m sorry your mental health isn’t good. Maybe take time to do self care like walks in nature, aromatherapy, hot baths…
