Damn, Harry. I am so sorry to hear that. But, as has been said,
"early" means a lot. Study up all you can; knowledge can (in some small
ways) help fight the fear.

You're in our prayers.

Wow, Harry, sorry to hear that. Diane's was in stage 2a, and as such, is
considered quite cureable. Stay on top of it, and get a second opinion if you
feel the need. My prayers are with you.

A while back I asked for your help in helping my daughter Diane in
fighting
colon cancer. Yesterday she got the results of the second round of tests
following surgery, and at this point she is cancer free. She is gaining
weight,
feels great and looks 100% better. While nothing is ever completely
certain
with this type of illness, her prognosis is excellent as long as she
continues
periodic testing.

Now that is *great* news!

My thanks to all of you who held her in your thoughts and prayers. I am
not a
devoutly religious person, but I have never doubted the power of prayer
and
positive thinking in combatting illness.

My sentiment, as well.

Op

Once again, Thank you.

I'm pullin' strong for ya Harry, if for no other reason, my only other fly
connection ties flyz with the hooks broken off.

Op --Hang tight good buddy!--

I found out yesterday that I have Colon Cancer.

Glad you found it early, Harry. You'll be fine, especially with all of
us pulling for you.

Prayers are allways answered. It's the times we don't get what we pray for
that test us. I am very happy for you daughter and you. It's great when
you get the answer you want.
Number one son is halfway through his fight with Hodgkins disease. Things
are going well and it looks like we're going to get the answer to our
prayers as well. Hodgkins is pretty much a slam dunk these days.
I know we pay a lot for drugs in this country, but that and some of our
taxes are supporting important research that will help get the right answer
to a lot of peoples prayers. Part of the "too-much" that I pay for
prescription drugs goes for that research and I don't mind at all. Sometime
in the future when our grandchilden need help there will be a drug or
proceedure in place that will make getting the right answer to their prayers
a pretty sure thing..
