![]() I am Ed Ducey's daughter (Jennifer) and stopped by to thank you all for your kind thoughts and tremendous support. My dad absolutely loved participating in these blogs and had a true passion for Porsche's and buying / selling parts and authoring his first "how-to" Porsche V8 book. As you may know, my dad was diagnosed with stage 3 - Esophageal Cancer in Sept '07 as a result of having acid reflux for years. He bravely completed his lengthy chemo / radiation treatments from Oct-Jan and took some time to recover before having his thoracic surgery in early March. The surgery was supposed to take 6-8 hrs, but complications occurred and his surgery ended up taking 13+ hrs. He has the best possible care with stanford residents and a great doctor. Although my dad has now been in ICU for 16 days and hasn't woken from the surgery two weeks ago and is still listed in critical condition and unable to breath on his own, he is an absolute fighter and knew going into this surgery that he had a long road ahead to recovery in order to extend his life. This was his choice and he was eager to face the challenge and get on with his life. Just this past week, he started to regain some inner strength after having a trach on Wed. They expect him to be in the ICU for another 3 weeks as his progress continues. Please keep my dad in your prayers. My sister and I have filled my dad's ICU room with many pics of him with his treasured Porsche's and family photos. We love him dearly and are by his side always. I will be filling his room later today with print out's of all your kind thoughts of encouragement. Feel free to email me directly if you would like to include a note to my dad (Porsche 914 pics & V8's are always welcome!). Thank you again for all your support, it means a lot to our whole family! Best, Jennifer Tumminelli jennifer@jennifertumminelli.com |
