Eric Abidal

[Metaphysical]

thats what i mean, the media really made a big deal about abidals circumstances last time but it was not right. that was peanuts compared to what he faces right now. he was always going to recover from that surgery, it was a small resection that required a fairly standard recovery afterwards. but a liver transplant is a whole different kettle of fish. he has to survive the 8-12 hour surgery, then afterwards has to totally suppress his immune system for a few months during which time any infection could basically take his life, then he has to pray the body doesn't reject the organ, and for the rest of his life he has to be on low dose immunosuppression. this is nothing like what he dealt with before. in footballing terms, him returning to football last time was like overcoming a 3 goal deficit at halftime. this is like overcoming a 10 goal deficit with 10 min left in the game....

news says " will undergo the operation in weeks " .. so ..

 

[Jedy]

WTF seriously just like that? Pops out of nothing? Why abidal? And what does it mean he will undergo the surgery in a few weeks? That he will play some games before he maybe never comes back? WTF WHAT IS THIS SHIT

All the best abi!

Disgusting news and even more disgusting are the people who are worried about Adriano and rest of the season.
I would relegate to the segunda if that meant saving Abidal's life. the guy has little kids.

Please Allah help him and his family stay strong during all the procedure and help him recover completely !

I think many people don't understand how risky this procedure is, hence some of the responses.

Allah be with him.

Wish him a speedy recovery.

Always been on the good side of things off the pitch and that is where it matters, hope he recovers to take care of his family and raise his children. Football is not important, his career is not important, what is important is for him to rest and live to raise his family in peace. I have a good feeling about him, he will come through.

Animo Abidal.

Asked my sis ,who is a doc, about this whole liver transplant and explained the situation for her and she was surprised he could play this efficiently on such high level, such a demanding sport with a malfunctioning liver. Among all kinds of organ transplants , liver transplant is one with mediacore risk and the patient can in many cases return to a mostly normal lifestyle. the survival rate provide a very positive outcome in most cases and the answer to the question that how long will he live after the operation is said in some sources to be around 15 years but my Sis says the length of life cannot be exactly determined really and is very much dependent on various factors and one important factor that is in control of the patient is the person's previous, current and future lifestyle, that in King Erick's case has been and is very healthy so he does have a very big plus in that department.
After having to endure an 8 to 14 hours long operation he'll have to use strong drugs to suppress his immune system to protect the new organ and wait for the body to accept the new liver. if the rejection does not occur, he will have to keep special diet and extra care against all kind of infections. all these procedures will last up to maximum 2 years in most cases, and then the dose of the immunosuppression drugs will drop considerably but he still needs more care than a normal person in that regard. That he can or can not continue playing football is a big question mark and is also dependent on what his doctors conclude from his body's overall respond to the whole procedure but the chance of seeing the warrior on the green pitch again is very small to be totally honest...

Anyway, in front of his health and life every other matter loses color and importance. I'll be praying for him and may the compassionate Allah spreads his merci over him and his family.

I'll be praying the best for him.
