I haven't said anything on here but I've been worried lately about my hubby. Basically back at the end of May we went to the ER bc he had horrible stomach pains. They were pretty sure it was a ruptured apendix but there was a mass in front of it and couldn't get a good pic of it. But knew it had attached itself to the colon wall.

Cancer was brought up then. Hoping the mass wasn't cancerous. They didn't want to cut on him then concerned that it was too dangerous at that point and it would spread all thru out his abdomen. He wanted the infection to go down before they operated.

He stayed 5 days there on iv meds. Came home on 2 antibiotics. It's been weeks and weeks of cat scans, more and more of antibiotics. Finally 7/27 they did the surgery. Took out the mass, removed the apendix. Then is when they realized the mass had gone thru the colon wall.

While on the table in OR they froze the mass and cut it and it didn't look good. At that point the surgeon removed 1/3 of his colon. We finally got his diagnosis today. It's colon cancer The mass and the appendix were cancerous too. Level 2

We will see the oncologist after they call us with the appt time. They said the 14 lymph nodes did not have cancer in them...thank Goodness.

I hadn't been taking my meds lately. This morning my mind was racing and I was all over the place. I went into the gutter in a split second. I'm exhausted and just want to sleep. I'm worried about him!

I need to be strong now for him and my son. I just can't right now. How can I go from one extreme to another in a moment? Why can't I be normal
