The other reports are colon cancer and spinal cancer. Supposedly Putin had abdominal surgery of some sort several months ago.
Also, I’m sorry about your wife,
My wife was exceptionally lucky and had world class care. She is 3 years past the diagnosis—not out of the woods, but further than most get.
The surgery would have him bed ridden for about ten days, and then barely able to walk for another month.
Falling on stairs and defecating is side effect of chemo as well. The chemo for colon and PC is brutal and cumulative. The first few rounds wouldn’t be noticeable. After 7 or 8....the effect is that the patient looks....”like a cancer patient.” After 10...its pretty close to killing a person. Interestingly, Chemo for PC doesn’t cause hair to drop out.
He looks sick. But doubt its PC. Its been too long. He would either be off the chemo by now—or he would be dead.
