One of my colleague’s husband had the intestinal perforation, he battled a long time to get well enough to go home. His wife had never given up on him, and his own will to survive together with his wife’s determination saved him from being one of the statistic numbers. He was going to be sent to hospice service at one time.
Best of luck and listen to your care giver. When in doubt, seek a second opinion immediately.
Hope your buddies will join you on the golf courses in 2024.
