Dear sir i can understand your concern.
i am very sorry for you uncle condition.
Ecosprin is medication which will make blood thinner and help in better circulation of blood
This is customary to stop ecosprin before any surgery to prevent blood loss during surgery.
usually doctors will restart after completion of surgery.
In my opinion your doctors are very well aware of this situation and they will do the best for you.

Hope I was able to help you.
If you have any further question feel free to write me back. I will be happy to help.
Take care.
Best Regards.
