The surgeon rang me an hour ago to say that the 'matter' that is leaking into Roger's system and giving him such pain, is faeces leaking through from the original hole, which has opened up again.
He cannot now wait for a second opinion from St. Marks Hospital, as they're taking 6 to 8 weeks to see people. Therefore he intends to do an emergency operation this afternoon to cure the leak and to reinstate the colostomy bag.
I will go in this afternoon to see Roger and stay with him until he goes to theatre,which won't be until late, because he has eaten breakfast, so they must wait.
There's nothing more I can say right now. We just have to await the outcome.

Oh dear Suzanne, it never rains but it pours.... I hope the op for Roger has been successful and that you are still coping with things
