Re: Dad recently diagnosed with Bowel Cancer

How is your partner's condition recently? Is there any improvement after treatment? Are you taking good care of your partner and what about you?

I hope everything is going well with you.

Take care of yourself, best wishes!

Spoiler
Thanks for the check in. 
Unfortunately my partner now has also Mets in her lung.

She will undergo colorectal surgery in 10 days.

Much apprehension now because of current virus. Things don’t seem to be getting any easier..... but holding tight and making the most out of each day. 

Im hoping things with your dad have improved and you are in a good space.

Best wishes and best hopes for you and your family.

Re: Dad recently diagnosed with Bowel Cancer

Hi there Karlz9,

Oh my, you are amazing!  Thank you for sharing.

I opened your link and read Sandy's story.  Amazing!!

How are you doing at this point?

My elastace is at 24 and not sure what this means other than they gave me proton pump inhibitor which has helped w nausea.  Awaiting results of endoscopy biopsies and curious as to what they will decide to do if anything,  w my pancreas.  We shall see.

I wish you the very best.  You seem like such a strong person.  A good example for me since I am a bit of a wimp.  Thank you again for sharing. 

Peace
