Ken got home October 29th, which was wonderful to have him here for Halloween. It always feels so much better to have him home. He was able to make his 2 doctors appointments. He saw his surgeon on Halloween afternoon. Dr. Campbell agreed that Ken has developed a hernia along his surgery incision. The hernia is three fingers wide. It will need to be repaired, but because the hernia is so large there is not the worry of strangulation. We have scheduled the surgery for the end of January since Ken has another trip scheduled for work for most of December. He will need a couple of months before he can doing heavy lifting.
His oncologist Dr. Halber will schedule a CAT scan druing this month to get a baseline scan. Then we will be able to check future scans with it. Ken will also have his port removed while he has his hernia repaired.
