I was the one who took him in the ER on the weekend before and I thought he had just a stomache ache.  It ends ups not to be in his colon but started outside and spread to his liver, pancreas,  lymps and possibly the stomach.  He just had surgery to have a portion of his colon removed.  We are meeting with pathology and the onconologist tomorrow or Tuesday.  I started out hopeful that they would be able to treat it but once they went in it's a Stage 4 and we are not sure what to do ? I don't know what to say.  I am so sad.  He looks so tired and depressed.  It was quite a shock.  He's healing from the surgery.  We are not sure how long he has had it.  Nothing ever showed up on his test.  I am so scared.  My mother is devastated. I have been helping my Mom meet with the surgeons and doctors.  I want to be able to stay hopeful but I am not sure what is going to happen.I am here to get some information and trying to grasp for something.Any advice would be appreciated. lizam1968 Mon, 17 Sep 2007 00:00:00 GMT
