We are home from our first Oncology Appointment : ) Not sure how we are feeling yet, so here are the facts. The doctor looked over our charts and said Dave has Recto sigmoid Cancer, not Rectal Cancer. Nope, didn't mean a thing to me either. It means it is higher in than first thought, just not quite to the colon. They don't do pretreatment with this kind of cancer, so we meet with the surgeon on August 29 to schedule surgery. He seemed hopeful that this is curable. I feel like we have had a course correction or change...God is still leading, we are following (though we are considering a second opinion again). More later...
My mother-in-law just arrived and dinner is ready, so I need to go! So I think we have two weeks of "normal" Lord willing.
