Family News

Shock and surprise.
So we have big news in my family.

Bonnie has been bothered lately by having to vomit while having a bowel movement. (we had fun in Vegas, we were there for Christmas)

So it takes forever to get scheduled for a colonoscopy. She had one scheduled for today but they called Monday and canceled it. So she started calling Tuesday to see if she could get in anywhere and a Dr Batista just had a cancellation and they asked if she wanted to come in the next day (Wednesday). She did and the Dr. couldn’t get the tube past a 90% blockage that was there about 6-8 inches in. They go in a meter normally.
The Dr said that from all he has seen he is pretty certain it is malignant and the biopsies won't be back for 7-10 days.
We just scheduled with a surgeon to have the growth removed and the bowel re-sected(sp). We meet with him Monday and it will probably happen Tuesday. It needs to get out ASAP malignant or not.

So that is our shocking news. Please include her and us in your prayers and on temple rolls where you are and hopefully the surgery Tuesday is all she will need.

Thanks and love you all.
