My daddy is now 76, we lost my oldest sister to cancer just this past October as many here know.(she fought it for almost 4 years) When she found out first colon cancer, we all had Colonoscopys and we were all clear.
My parents since older ages, are to have the test every 3 years, and us sisters every 5 years, since she got it quite young. My dad had his newest test today, although clear last time, but had polyps but clear. THis time he had lots of polyps they removed, but had a spot they left, because they think it is cancer, and they took some for biopsy. But they told my parents that it does look very much as the test will be positive for cancer!! So please keep my father in your prayers, this is one reason I have always been glad we moved back into my hometown 7 years ago. To be close to my parents as they are getting older. (I lived away in Boston area for 13 years...) anyhow please pray for him, and our family..as we may be going down the cancer trail again. thanks all, sarah

((((((((((((((Sarah))))))))))))))
my prayers are lifted. I know how scary this is. I pray that they will be able to effectively remove it, but even more I pray it is benign

Adding my prayers to the others Sarah.
As you may remember I went through the same thing last year, so I know what you must be feeling. I'll be keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers.

Count me in , too, Sabi
I am thankful that you all are being diligent - usually "bad" news for this type of cancer is still a good outcome when caught early. Hoping that will be the case for your Dad. |

I am trying to be positive, but when they found my sisters colon cancer and removed part of colon, it was said she was in the clear and all good so far, and that caught so early... then only month later, on a scan, it was in her liver, they removed part of the liver...and chemo...and again said to be pretty positive news..!! then over time, other part of liver had spots...and eventually her lungs too!! this over 3 year span... but then once told liver and lungs...wow time went quick...glad in a way so she didnt suffer. I got a good visit with her before she passed away just this past October my oldest sis...not very old either she was 49...
hoping the news is good and early, just cancer is terrible..with his age I worry too... thanks for all the prayers and good wishes, I know whatever is in Gods plan will be!! Just hard after just getting thru Christmas, knowing my parents and siblings all were a bit bitter sweet on first Christmas without Madeline!! thanks again all, and you know it...HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSS,sarah

Bless your heart, Sarah. I'll be praying for you and your dear father.
Am accepting prayers for my Dad, too -- he was dxd with lymphoma about 6 weeks ago. Hurts to see those we love hurting.
