Another Surgery Scheduled

My next surgery is scheduled for Tuesday March 3rd. They will do a liver resection first, then close my colostomy.

I have been healing well since the last surgery and I feel strong again. Hopefully this will remove the last of the cancer; and then the chemotherapy will block any return.

Clean PET Scan

Good news! I had a PET scan last Friday to see if the cancer had spread to other areas. The results showed no other cancer.

So now I'll get together with the liver surgeon so he can remove the spot that's on there. I already have surgery scheduled on the 25th to reverse the colostomy. Maybe they can do the liver operation at the same time?

Colon Cancer

I received the lab report this week and it was not good. The tumor was colon cancer and there is a spot on my liver.

I'll find out this week what my treatment options are. Please keep me in your prayers.
