Back to the beginning....

I have been having some abdominal pains for the last few months. The Docs have sent me to have my bladder scanned and nothing was seen. They followed that up with a flex sigmoidoscopy. Kinda like a colonoscopy just no sedation or as far inside.

A growth of abnormal skin was seen and a sample was taken. The GI doc said it did not look like cancer.....

Last Friday, we got the results...it is cancer, joy, joy......

So what is the next step? Brenda and I are going to Linberger Cancer center in Chapel-Hill for a consultation there on September 25th. We both feel this is my best bet for long term survival.

I am gonna push for as much of this cancer to be removed from my body. There are other options which we will explore as well. Please remember us as we make decisions that will effect the rest of our lives.

Believe,

Kevin
