Update on my hubby

First let me thank all of you for your kind wishes, prayers and good thoughts

Bob had a long surgery.  They removed a tumor the size of a grapefruit from
his colon.  ( i think the surgeon said they could not get it all, but i have to talk
to him again tomorrow).  they also removed a tumor from his omentum, and
took a biopsy from a tumor on his liver.  they removed his appendix, and also
did a colostomy ( which possibly could be reversed with a future surgery)

the poor guy was a mess, the surgeon told me that they found a congenital
malformation of his whole gastro track, which he had from birth.  that caused
much extra surgical work.

i feel so horrible for him, but although you all know im not a religious person,
this situation is out of his control and only time and hopefully good medical
after care will determine his future health.  he will need radiation and maybe
chemo. ( and some good old fashioned luck)

my mom is about the same, they did not expect her to make it thru last night,
but she did.  hopefully tonight will pass quietly as well.

hugs to all in need and i will welcome any hugs you all send my way.

im going to say good night to my kitty now, he missed me all day.  then im going
to try and get some sleep

Sounds like you deserve some sleep ... hope you get it. Not a good situation at all for your hubby ... as you said, good medical care and luck will determine his future. Hope he gets both.

As for your mom, hope she can go peacefully in the night. Sometimes they keep fighting for whatever reason.

 W O W   You have really had your hands full.  I'm just so sorry for all this going on in your life.  

Huggs to you....  I am religious and will pray for you and your family.

Sleep well and take care of yourself...

You have gone through a lot and I hope that all goes well from now on.
You can expect prayers from some of us and I hope that doesn't anger you.  We are all concerned for you and please keep in mind that you have to look after yourself as well.
Get a good sleep and hug your kitty and that will also help.
