[nfbwatlk] Upcoming Hospital Stay

[Mike Freeman]

Yee haw!

It'll be interesting to see if I stil have my appendix when I wake up? 
Usually they take that, too, but that's not the part of the colon 
that'll be resected.

Thanks.

Mike

Mike,
All the best with this procedure.
You're a tough guy who's not going to let this get in his way, and I'm
certain you'll be cured.

In fact, when you're doing this colon procedure, ask the doctors the
following question and see what they tell you.

If adults have colons, does that mean that kids have semi-colons?

Greetings, fellow list participants!

On April 21, I will be entering Southwest Washington Medical Center here 
in
Vancouver for a colon resection to ensure that all cancerous tissue
surrounding a cancerous pollup discovered during a recent colonoscopy is
removed. I am told that cure is virtually certain. I  will be in the
hospital for five or six days and convalescing at home for several weeks
thereafter. I am told that I will be fully recovered by the time of the
national convention in July.

Assuming I'm not drugged to the gills and that there is wi-fi capability 
in
the hospital, I will endeavor to communicate via email from the 
hospital. If
not, I'll be back in the land of the computer-living when I return home. 
I
shall see to it that you are informed how things went as soon as is
practical.
