Thank you for sharing.. I just had my liver resection last Sept 11 2023 and I was scared so i keep on watching your videos just to get any ideas about this kind of surgery and thank God I'm now on recovery 🙏🙏🙏
I am glad you finally had your surgery and are foing well . Most people do better at home , sleeping in their own beds ! You have bounced back very quickly after having major surgery 👍🏻 ! You very strong willed and that is a plus , you are not afraid to go forward if it means getting better . Your attitude and strong will get you very far , in terms of recovery . NB. After surgery , when patients have a lot pain , strong , unbearable pain , they are given versed to cause amnesia . You forget the time after surgery when you were in excruciating pain . Peter I wish all cancer patients had your outlook and positive attitude, they would get better so much quicker . May God continue to bless you with good health !
Oh Peter I'm so happy your home. I know what you've been going through, I will never have another epidural. I went crazy. I hope you will get back to normal? This NETS is a sly one, You are young and have always been fit. Be safe I look forward to seeing pictures of babies. That's a old lady speaking. Be safe👵👵
Honestly, people can correct me if im wrong on this, the people ive seen die of illnesses are usually ones that have just throw the towel in and said, enough is enough with the pain and they call it a day, but youre a strong, beautiful man, just keep pushing.
Hi Peter, I have been following your ordeal with interest. My surgery was in 2017. Don't worry your liver will soon be back to normal, as mine was. Be careful and don't push things for the next two months. I do hope they got all the cancer. I am following your progress. Keep a positive attitude. Best wishes Vic.
Outro segment of the video you spoke about how you will be able to overcome the hardships that present themself to you when doubts set in. As I have had cancer and surgery before with the worries and concerns prior to all the hardships, your words spoke some homerun truths 👍
Peter, ilius is no joke. I have had it after bowel surgery myself. And it is scary. You keep feeling like, ok, what if my bowel doesn’t start working soon? What next? Very scary and painful experience. It sure was a tough journey for you. What a struggle in the ICU. Thank goodness you made it through. It’s a testament to your strength and resilience. You are looking so much better now. You’re going to come through like the champ that you are. Stay strong, friend. Prayers going up for you. Xx
I survived Neuroendocrine cancer 8 years ago. It was in my pancreas. More recently I found out that it metastasized to my liver causing me to have to undergo a partial liver resection surgery. The surgery process went just as you described with the epidural (fortunately worked for me), central line, etc. except all of that was done when I was put to sleep. After a dangerous 9 hour operation, my surgeon was able to remove the tumor which was sitting in the dead center of the liver. I was up and walking the next day and ready to go home by the morning of the 3rd day. Unfortunately, like you, Major challenges presented themselves causing me to become incredibly ill by the afternoon on the 3rd day. I developed a blood infection as well as a bile leak causing me to slowly become septic, which is incredibly dangerous and deadly. What was supposed to be no more thanto a 3-4 day stay turned into 13 miserable days. I underwent multiple procedures during that time to stop the leak. Ultimately, I’ve ended up with 3 drains collecting bile keeping me safe. I’m going on my 9th week post liver resection and it has been the most frustrating and hardest time of my life (more than 8 years ago). I hope one day soon I can have the drains removed and try to get back to living some kind of life. You’re videos give me hope. Prior to surgery I was very active, going to the gym everyday, hiking often, traveling and now I’m confined to my home mostly in bed or the couch. However, I see you and how you’ve overcome the nightmare and I can only pray god gives me that luxury as well. I just need to be patient. Thank you and Take care.
So happy for you that you are home and doing well. You are AMAZING Peter! The way you've handled this whole situation from the beginning all the way to now has been so inspirational and a true testament as to how to handle major adversity. Keep healing my friend... you'll be outside running again before long! Prayers continue. Elizabeth in North Carolina
im glad you are getting better day by day. coincidentally on aug 12, I was walking across a crosswalk and was smucked by a truck. I was released from hospital on the 18th of aug to recover at home with several broken ribs, collapsed lung and other injuries. but day by day we heal. thanks for the updates; we've been waiting patiently.
I retired a few months ago after being a palliative social worker. I have also had a few surgeries and treatment for cancer. I remember crying for pain relief and the nurse bringing me a hot chocolate! When I looked at my notes when feeling more human (and provided with pain relief from another nurse) I looked at my notes to find I was prescribed oramorph! I will never forgive that nurse - there are a few of them about. Fortunately most nurses care.
Oh my god you are going through so much Dezzy from the uk Bristol here .. wish you all the best on your journey, you are really brave & doing your very best to keep upbeat, very proud of you X
Hi Peter - proves once again that your great diet, healthy active lifestyle and low normal BP comes to kick your behind - :-) My normal is 102-105 so had similar problems with post surgery BP. I am really glad you on the mend side - Hope the labs show no micro cancer. Wishing you the best recovery possible. xx k
What an ordeal Peter both physically and mentally. Adding the sense of isolation that comes with serious illness you were physically separated too . It's very very difficult when it's these times you need the hug from someone you love. Continue with your recovery one-day at a time and thank you for sharing your journey with us. Best wishes to you your wife and family Peter.
I’ve been on here every day looking for your update. Thank God you are now back home recovering nicely. You’ve had a rough go of it…now you need to rest rest rest. Praying for continued healing. Blessings and love to you and Jenny. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰
hey man, your videos are never pushed to my feed, but i always make it a point to check up on you. Glad you got through those 9 days and thanks for sharing what you went through.
First, I am so glad to see that you are doing better. Have been waiting for an update. Second, while I wish you didn't have to go through this, I have a feeling that you are the right person to deal with it and educate us all on the process. Third, dang...you went through some hell my friend...and you have the scars to prove it. I have learned so much as well as have learned how lucky I am right now to be well. Sometimes I think we take our health for granted until something like this comes along. I want to thank you for being willing to share your ordeal. You are an inspiration to what the human body can do as well as a great educator. Well wishes from your friend across the pond!
Love you man, sorry about this ordeal you have been faced with and have to endure. You will beat this thing friend - try not to let any negative thoughts in.
You don't know me Peter - I'm just some random American (now living in Portugal) who's rooting for you. So glad your surgery went well and I hope you get good news on follow up tests and scans! You've got this! 💪🏼
Even though you missed your "official" obstacle race this Spring...it sounds like you had to battle another much tougher one. Glad you ended up victorious in this race. 🥇
Hey Peter, OMG what a journey 🚗 I must admit I felt worried that we hadn’t heard from you, but also expected it. The pain involved with not being able to use your bowls would in itself have been excruciating on top of everything else. I’m relieved you are on the mend, the journey ahead can’t be rushed but you have your lovey Jenny to support and love you. Thank you for sharing your experiences, I appreciate the honest approach you have shared concerning the good, the bad and the ugly 😊 Stay safe dear Peter and know that the reality of riding your bike, going for runs and trekking through the woods is just around the corner. Cheers Chrissy 😊🌹
Wow...to experience such pain that you begged to be put back to sleep, must have been so scary. It must have put a strain on you mentally as well, but some how you pulled though and doing better, I hope you continue to do so. Looking forward to hearing more about your recovery in the coming months, and what’s next. From Billings Montana USA.
I am so happy that you are recovering well. I was just discharged from a 3 week stay in the hospital from sepsis. I was on IV antibiotics and have gone home with another month of oral antibiotics. The recovery from my liver resection has proven to be the hardest thing in my life. I am glad to see you have conquered your complications and are healing nicely!
Blimey Stephanie, that sounds rough. I was wondering how you've been getting on. Hopefully that's the last of the really difficult days for you now. Best wishes to you.
Thank you for sharing your journey and showing the reality of an operation like that. I love the way you are so factual about everything and always remain so positive. You really are an inspiration and I wish you the very best in your recovery.
All the best with the rest of your recovery. I have had 5 bowel surgeries now due to ulcerative colitis and really relate to this vlog. Every problem you suffered during your stay I have also had. Hang in there bud, getting through this shows massive strength.
14:33 …. Picture of a true warrior. Glad to see you on the other side of this surgery Peter. Sorry to hear that the early recovery wasn’t in a straight line. Keep that chin up sir! The worst of it is in the rearview now! Sending positive and healing prayers. Your friends in Canada 🇨🇦
I was in your shoes last Tuesday, I’m waiting for the biopsy report. I have been battling now since July 2023. It’s such a hard journey. Thankfully my epidural worked and I left hospital last Saturday. They put me on poo tablets and was only given liquids.
Glad to see you on the other side of your surgery. I have been through a similar big surgery so I was somewhat triggered and remember it being an emotional and difficult time. I hope you continue to do well.
Hope your doing as good as u can be , and that your feeling out of pain , I’ve bin getting procedures and tests at hospital for the last 16 months stil no diagnosis extremely extremely stressful and worrying but we are strong cookies , good will come from your journey thank you for sharing
Only just got to see this video as I've been away, so relieved that you are ok and improving daily. You are right the memories of the challanges you faced in hospital will fade, having had surgeries myself I know this to be true. Focus on the positives, you will get there! :-)
So thankful your liver resection is over. Sorry for all the hiccups in your experience. So glad you’re home now. Looking forward to your next update. 🙏🏻💜
Hi Peter! Soooo relieved to see you. I am really sorry for all you went through. Sounds very difficult, glad you’re home with your wife, that will help you to heal. Please take it easy and keeps us posted. 😊
Oh the excitement of your own room and toilet I know that feeling then to be bumped down to shared room trust me it doesn't assist the healing , Andrew your a true warrior and a bloody legend to overcome such challenges in there, there really is no place like home for recovery, keep healing, smiling, resting and dreaming on planning your running return cause it will happen my friend, sending love and speedy recovery from Sydney Australia 🦘🐨🌺🌼
Bless your brave spirit. So glad you are on the road to recovery, regaining strength and happily home after the major trauma to your body. Thanks for sharing these difficult experiences - painful, but also truly valuable to others.
It can be very challenging to recover from major surgery. You’ve met the challenge! Thankfully, you were very fit going into the surgery, so you should heal fairly quickly. Loved seeing your incision site. It looks great! Keep on keepin on! 👍🏻👍🏻
It is so good to see you getting better. I have been thinking about you and wanting to know how you are. You are a strong young man. Praying for you to get stronger and stronger.
So glad to hear from you and that you are home, and Jenny is able to help you get better every day. Praying for your recovery and that all the test come back with great results. God Bless.
Funny, I was thinking about you earlier today, wondering how you were. So glad that bit is over. No-one would wish that sort of ordeal, but you have a strong spirit for sure. Now I wish you good sleep, rest and a speedy recovery. Take good care , good to be home.
Welcome back Peter. It's good to see you looking refreshed and healthy. So sorry about the rough days in the hospital. I pray the report you get from lab is a good one.
Thank you so much for sharing. In two weeks I will be having a liver resection to remove NETs cancer. I find so much comfort in seeing others share their story of surgery and recovery. Thank you!
Great to see you! I was getting worried! I'm so sorry that it didn't go as smoothly as we all hoped. You look so thin (which isn't a criticism at all). You've handled this whole thing so well and so bravely. Good on you. Best wishes!
Hi Cathie. You're right, I lost quite a bit of weight. Thankfully I'm eating well now and I'm slowly putting weight back on. Thanks as always for your support.
You’ve taken a pretty big hit with that surgery, to say the least, and it’s sobering to see just how very complex the whole situation was. Thank you for sharing so candidly. Your content will help a lot of people and families. The NHS are incredible too. We are so glad you are coming out of the other side of this part of your treatment.
Peter so glad you seem to be doing well, it’s such a tough surgery to go through. I had a hepatobiliary right lobectomy as well and couldn’t get over how absolutely fatigued I became during recovery and realized my body made me really rest so it could regrow a brand new right liver lobe, which it completely grew back exactly like the original liver in four weeks. Funny but my surgery team wanted to know if I would mind jazz music, and I had the surgery done in Austin Texas where you’d think they might want to hear country. I tried not to take much pain killers as well so it wouldn’t be so tough on what little liver I had left after surgery. That was almost 7 years ago and I did quite well, I certainly hope you continue to heal and have a complete recovery.
Thank you for sharing.. I just had my liver resection last Sept 11 2023 and I was scared so i keep on watching your videos just to get any ideas about this kind of surgery and thank God I'm now on recovery 🙏🙏🙏
until you have all these scans , iv's , anti biotics and hospital stays you could never ever comprehend the sheer magnitude
You're a tough cookie with the patience of a saint. So glad the worst is behind you
I am glad you finally had your surgery and are foing well . Most people do better at home , sleeping in their own beds ! You have bounced back very quickly after having major surgery 👍🏻 !

Thanks Robert, that's very kind. It definitely made a big difference to get back to my own bed!
Peter.....It is always great to get the update. Please rest.
Oh Peter I'm so happy your home. I know what you've been going through, I will never have another epidural. I went crazy. I hope you will get back to normal? This NETS is a sly one, You are young and have always been fit. Be safe I look forward to seeing pictures of babies. That's a old lady speaking. Be safe👵👵
Thank you Dorothy.

The NHS are incredible too.
We are so glad you are coming out of the other side of this part of your treatment.
Thank you!
Peter so glad you seem to be doing well, it’s such a tough surgery to go through. I had a hepatobiliary right lobectomy as well and couldn’t get over how absolutely fatigued I became during recovery and realized my body made me really rest so it could regrow a brand new right liver lobe, which it completely grew back exactly like the original liver in four weeks. Funny but my surgery team wanted to know if I would mind jazz music, and I had the surgery done in Austin Texas where you’d think they might want to hear country. I tried not to take much pain killers as well so it wouldn’t be so tough on what little liver I had left after surgery. That was almost 7 years ago and I did quite well, I certainly hope you continue to heal and have a complete recovery.
Thank you for sharing Tammy. It's nice to know your liver was back to its normal size in 4 weeks. Hoping I might have achieved the same!
