    what did they tell you
    when you woke up what did they tell you or did you see the pictures.. you can send me a private message if you want to

    when I woke up
    When I woke up my wife was already talking to Dr Masters. (She the one who did my colonoscopy) She already knew it was cancer because of the size and what it looked like and the fact that she's been doing it for 20 years. A week later the path report proved she was right. The first week after I was told that I have cancer I cant hardly remember. My mind seemed to go into another world. It just so unreal!!!. Weeks went by and many more tests and scans where done. I was told that I have stage 3 colorectal cancer. So far I've done 6 1/2 weeks of radiation w 5FU pump. Surgery last August and now have done 4 out of 9 of my last chemo treatments. (I hope)

    Life is funny sometimes

    Piece of cake
    The prep is the hardest part. It is a no brainer. And once you are done, you won't even remember a thing. Good you are getting tested! Marie
