Finally some news

My son was taken to hospital a few weeks ago with severe stomach pains 
They did a scan and found a “mass” 
Yesterday he had a colonoscopy and gastroscopy 
They found the mass to be a tumour. 
They also found another spot with abnormal cell growth 

They have removed about half a foot of bowel
They checked everywhere and found nothing else. 
They suspect a carcinoma. 
They’re pretty confident that they have it all 

We now wait for the biopsy results 
If it’s a aggressive tumour he may have to have chemotherapy 
To just make sure. 

These few weeks have been very hard. 
Not knowing 
Worrying 
Just flat out stressed. 

I’m still hoping and praying that this is the last of it 
Please send all your good vibes. 
We need them.

  2. Best wishes to your son that the biopsy does not necessitate any chemo followup. May he have a good recovery from the colon surgery (I had that same surgery so I know how it is). Sending all the good positive vibes I have!
