I had my surgery on Friday (Nov 13th). It went real well
the surgeon said anyway. Except the tumor was not in the
sigmoid but higher...I talked to the surgeon last night,
she was gone over the weekend.

But it did go real well and I am awaiting the related biopsy.

I did not have to have a oestomy, I think because of the high location
of the tumor.

I want to thank all who helped me get to the point of surgery.
I am worn out, tired, and in pain, but alive and that is what counts
at this point.

thanks again,
Amy

    So glad to hear that your surgery went well and you didn't have an ostomy. Make sure you walk a lot as this will help the body to heal. Good news. Hope you have a speedy recovery.
