in Colorectal Cancer #1
Three years ago today I had my colon resection which in my mind saved my life...

Although I had two reoccurences, I know the most important surgery was the first one...

I am thankful and a very happy three year old today!!!!!!!

    I'm Glad You Asked.....I'm OK Now...
    After the colon resection, a year later they found two spots on my liver...not sure how big, but they were close together on my right side...I was a candidate for a liver resection and it was successful...I already had a small spot on my lung that was seen at the time of my colon diagnosis...then in July 2010 the spot grew just a little...it was determined it was cancer again...I had the spot removed and now I'm said to be cancer free...

    I'm a lucky man and I know it...and you are or will be too....

    You and I and several of us have alot in common here...

    BUZZ says it well here...and I believe in keeping your mind right and trust in yourself and your continuous drive to survive...
