Day Four:

Last night was a bit scary. I woke up on the bathroom floor around 2 am and had blacked out and faceplanted into the hard tile. My nose, chin, and knee must have taken the brunt of it, because they HURT this morning. I was prepping for a colonoscopy and I think the lack of food just did me in. I have never functioned well when hungry. Many of my friends and family have known that for years. :)

But the great news...I just returned from my colonoscopy and the Dr. was unable to find anything currently that looked at all like cancer on the inside of my colon. We know there is some on the outside, and that there are several other places we still need to check, but I am grateful that we had some good news today. I felt as though the stars aligned to get me into the specialists I needed overnight to schedule this procedure as well as my big surgery for monday. I am officially scheduled to have a right hemocolonectomy on Monday @ 6am. I will not know the news from the pathology lab until much later in the week...and I will be in the hospital all week as well. Please continue your prayers...and THANK YOU for your amazing support!
