Son in Law and daughter just returned from Boise. SIL needed more imaging to determine the extent of the cancer. The radiologist report essentially says surgery is the only chance he’s got. Essentially the docs will “gut him like a fish” hope to get enough of the cancer to prolong “salvage” his life. A few months ago, following radiation and Kemo it appeared the cancer had been in remission. We are beyond sad.
He goes in for surgery this Friday. He’ll be in hospital for at least a week. Docs hope they can salvage enough of his rectum/colon that they can repair him in about a year. In the interim he will be on a bag.
We have greatly appreciated all the prayers, hoping you have a few more.
Don.
 
Best of luck to your SIL , hopefully they can get him back on track to enjoy his life.
Cancer is such an evil disease , I lost my Mother , both Grandfathers and an Uncle to it.

Heart wrenching to say the least. Hoping all the best for him and all the family. Prayers!
