Upsetting news
06/22/12 at 08:48:37

Well, I just found out that my mother has colon cancer. They are operating this afternoon to remove a section of her colon and the tumor. They also found a couple of spots on her liver that they want to do chemo on in a few weeks. Let her recover from the surgery first.

She is 78, and up until last September, has always lived near me, and we have always been close. She met a man and decided to move to Arizona last fall. I guess I'll be finding out just how hot it is out there in a few weeks.

If you are so inclined, prayers would be welcomed. Also feel free to share any stories you may have with me. I need some uplifting.... :'(

Lucky they found it before she got too old for the surgery to remove it. My neighbor was not that fortunate, he will die soon.

There is a possibility that they can remove it laparoscopically, which would greatly lessen recovery time, so let's hope they are able. Sorry about your neighbor Boule'

They are saying no colostomy at this point. Just like cutting a bad section out of a hose and putting it back together. The liver spots are worrisome, but they think they can get them too.

That's a shame, Bill... She must have been very young... it's clear that she's still remembered and missed...

Prayers piglet. And you want a story, you might be sorry.

Soon after I got my savage, I was coming home from the hospital in Greenville, about 35 miles one way. It was a beautiful. Bluebird kind of day and I was riding a motorcycle, what could be better? Anyway, I had not had the bike long, so I was just putting along, checking things out, waving to the people in cars that passed and so forth.

I noticed it seems like everyone was really interested in me, looking, waving and so forth. I was thinking, “I am looking good on this bike.” I looked down and my shirt had blown up over my belly. So, I just reached down, pulled the shirt over and kept on riding. Well, the shirt promptly blew up again.

So, I just kept riding and waving, my big ole belly shining. Kids would point, wave, laugh and then mom and dad would look. Kind of gave a new meaning to the term fat boy.

Sorry, but you asked. Proverbs 17:22, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”
