This type of surgery, called an esophagectomy with gastric pull-up, is a significant procedure that many community members have experience with and can offer valuable insights about. Consider connecting with others who've been through similar journeys - their firsthand experiences with preparation, recovery, and outcomes could provide the perspective you're looking for as you and your husband navigate this important decision.
