Hello guys. So this is what’s been going on- they opened up Rob and couldn’t do the surgery. There were 2 more tumors and his portal vein is full of cancer. Then he got pneumonia and went into respiratory failure so we ended up being in Omaha for 9 days. That’s resolved thank goodness! So we are heading back to Omaha for radiation beads to be put in the large tumor (11 cm) on the right side of his liver to try to shrink it. Then we head to Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN for a newer treatment called a Histotripsy. It uses sound waves to break up smaller tumors and hopefully clean out the portal vein. Hopefully all goes well and we can get back to a somewhat normal life. Thank you for sticking with me 🥰
