The Surgeon Is Finished With Me

Just returned from surgical clinic.  All OK.  The major object removed was confirmed as metastatic colon cancer and the resection was well surrounded by cancer free tissue.  The other small object was a duct defect, likely there since birth.

Next step is to remove staples early next week, either I can do them or my GP's nurse can.  I will likely do them myself unless the wound has a problem.

I can expect a appointment in oncology within a few weeks, to agree the approach to chemotherapy and get it under way.

Feeling good although the walk from the hospital car park, within the hospital, and back was a bit of an effort.

My sister called in before we left today.  My mother is not in good shape, very yellow and just wants to sleep, unfortunately she is around 90Kms from us and I am not up to the trip yet.
