Surgery tomorrow for colon cancer...
Hi friends, it's been a busy few weeks and I have not been on OH much but just wanted to say Hi and let you know that I'll be having my surgery tomorrow for the colon cancer. I will be in the hospital 3-5 days and I've asked my daughter, Marenda to post an update tomorrow night.
The prep for the surgery was much easier... 2 ducolax at 10 am followed by a 64 oz bottle of gatorade with a big bottle of miralax which took about 4 hours to drink and then 2 more ducolax. I got the strawberry/kiwi gatorade and it sure was a lot better than that GoLightly that I had to do for the colonoscopy.
Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers. Hopefully, I'll be home this weekend.
Take care, Alice
