It’s true, My iliostomy “Take Down” reversal is set for April 9th three days short of my cancer dx in 2009 (April 12th) anniversary. This journey is coming to a end and a new one is starting. I hope it’s one of being NED!!

Surgery April 9th 2010
Kaiser San Diego Zion Hospital. I’m READY!!

    coming up quickly!
    Brooks,

    That's great that you have a take down surgery date!
    BTW, I took my daughter to a dr. appt today at a bldg across from the Kaiser bldg in San Marcos, on Craven Rd. Is that where you go?

    Anyhow, best wishes on the upcoming surgery!

    That is really good news. Hopefully, you won't be riding he throne too badly but you can always set a laptop in the bathroom and watch Molly to occupy yourself.

    Seriously, this is good news and I wish you the best.

    very cool Brooks
    Look forward to see a good prognosis after takedown. Mine is scheduled for April 20. If things go the way of our Disney trips it should all be golden as far as post takedown!
