After what seemed like a long surgery 4-1/2 hours, my dad's surgery went well. They removed a part of his colon that had a tumor the size of a baseball. My God...they are checking the lymph nodes and checking for more cancer....he had a cyst on his liver and kidney and they said it didn't look cancerous but are testing....

Than you all so very much for thinking of my dad and for the prayers...please continue to keep him in your thoughts..he looked good....

Love you guys

Nellie...xo

((Nellie))

Thank you for keeping us updated with that report.  4-1/2 hours, that is a long surgery.  But I'm happy to hear that they got the tumor out.  Keeping my fingers crossed that nothing else turns up cancerous.

If he looked good, that's to be thankful for, for right now.  We will certainly continue thinking about him and keeping him in our prayers.

Well, they took out the tube from his nose to his stomach...making him walk around now. He's eating jello and drinking water and tea and light things like that...so far so good.Only thing now is that his sugar and blood pressure are a little high

He has 2 cute nurses taking care of him   Grin Grin Grin Grin so he's happy

Nurses said if he keeps this up he may be able to go home by Monday...now let's see what the doctors think

Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers,I truly believe that helps in the healing process;you guys are awesome!!

My mother was sent to the hospital in an ambulance this afternoon. She has been really bad and getting worse the last couple of days, with a very high fever today. A year and a half ago she finally went tosee a doctor and was then diagnosed with a severe COPD, she almost died that night. And a year ago, in January she got a complication, Pulmonary embolism. Since then there hasn't been any comlications. Of course she is living a very limited life because of her condition but no complications until now.

They are keeping her at the hospital of course, took lots of tests and she got help with the breathing and something that took the fever down.
