Update

Post by kate_ce1995 »

Geoff's Mom saw the doc yesterday and does have colon cancer. She will have surgery on January 29. Then we'll know how bad it is. With all her other health problems, if its not surgically curable, I don't think she will survive this. Just seems like we can never get ahead of the health stress. I supposed thats the way with aging parents.

So sorry. Knock on wood that they can deal with it surgically and that it doesn't get too complicated for her or for you and Geoff. You're right, it's always something.

Katy-
I'm sorry to hear this. I hope it is good news and a good prognosis after the surgery. Fingers crossed it has been caught early!

I'm with the others, hopefully it's caught in time and can be cured.
My prayers are going up too.
