Three years cancer free after a resection!
I was lucky to have had my cancer caught very early by a wonderful surgeon who noticed an abnormality on my liver when he took out my gall bladder.
I’m posting because when I first visited this site I was looking for stories of survivors. Searching the internet had provided only dismal statistics and I was looking for hope. It was hard to find here, but it did exist.
I hope that stories like mine will give all who deal with this disease hope, an important ingredient in everyones’s survival.
Good luck to all.
Onlygirl,
My father was medevaced from Mexico to Philadelpia 4 years ago. He was unconscious, 87 and in congestive heart failure. While in the hospital the doctors discovered he had colon cancer. He had surgery, chemo and radiation. It was a slow but steady recovery until recently when his age is catching up to him. He has never regretted what he went through to have the last 4 years of his life.
Best of luck to you and your father.
