[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2446764, member: 25851"] My brother has to have more surgery to put some kind of a sleeve over his aorta, which has expanded to a concerning size. The surgery is not available to him on the NHS and to have it done privately will cost him £20,000. He's not making any decisions until he hears if he is free from cancer - in the next few weeks. If he is, he will pay up and get it done asap. If the cancer is still there, he'll save his money and leave it to his wife. Oddly, it was while the hospital was looking at his aorta that they found the problem with his kidney. What I don't quite get is, if they wouldn't do the surgery, why were they trying to identify the problem? [/QUOTE]
