Risk Of Infection From Stent In The Liver After Being Treated And Cured Of Cancer. Weakness, Sleep A Lot. Matter Of Concern?

Hi my brother just turned 39 in Dec, he has had bile duct cancer for over 2 years now and was told that, he is cancer free a few months ago as the tumors had shrunk, the problem now is risk of infection and apparently the doctors said he might only have 1 year to live as he has been in and out of hospital alot this year for many procedures regarding the stent thru his liver etc He seems to sleep alot and is weak lately which makes me worry he might not have long to live, don't know what to do as I feel helpless and he is in South Africa and I am in New Zealand recently and plan to stay here for awhile, please help ease my mind, should I be worried as I can't even msg him much anymore he seems to not answer and sleeps alot? Thanks Michelle
