Night Before Surgery
Today Bonnie and Kevin met with the surgeon, the surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 6:30. They had the results from the biopsies and it is malignant. The biopsy shows that it is invasive adenocarcinoma. After the surgery it takes 2 days to get pathology back to find out what kind of cancer it is for sure. It is normally a 2 hour surgery. The growth is 12 cm up (4.7 inches), the surgeon told them that the growths are usually about the size of an apple core and that is what they are hoping to find. They are hoping that they will be able to attach the colon back together without any problems. There are still a lot of unknowns at this point so tomorrow will hopefully shed light on exactly what we will be facing in the months ahead.
Thank you all for your support and prayers.

We are definetly praying for you Bonnie, and your family--for peace and comfort. And that the doctors will be able to successfully treat you. It's not fun living in cancer world, but the Lord does bless you in amazing ways, we have found, and you will too. Thanks for doing this blog, Merissa. It's a good idea.
Dear Bonnie, Kevin & family,
We just learned of your situation yesterday.
Needless to say we are worried and feeling a little helpless. That being said, we trust that you are doing everything you need to do to bring about the most positive results. You have to trust your doctors and of course the Lord!
Although we are a couple thousand miles from you are definitely close in our hearts , minds and prayers.
We will monitor this site and keep in touch.
