Found out today that my Mom has cancer. She's got a spot on her large intestine about the size of a tennis ball. About 5-1/2 years ago she had gastric bypass surgery and has been having spotty issues on and off. She went to her doctor a couple of weeks ago and he deemed her fine, but wanted to take a catscan just be safe. She was supposed to report back in 2 weeks for the results and a consultation of the findings. They contacted her the next evening stating that she needed to come back down for a colonoscopy within the week. Well she went back today and found out the news. They squeezed her in and are operating tomorrow to remove about a 8" to 10" section of her intestine and plan to re-attach. Hopefully they have found it early and this will clear up any future issues. I ask that you please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we approach this difficult time. Thanks in advance.
