Coming out from under a rock

56Nomad · 02-20-2013, 07:25 PM

Hi Hooligans…….

I've been silent since getting back from our trip to Superstition and Quartzsite and I guess it's just my nature to keep problems under the radar.

When I got back from the trip, my GP had requested that I do a colonoscopy screening which found a lesion that was too large for the local gastroenterologist to remove. Also, it was too close to a nerve bundle, so they sent me up to Stanford to see their experts. Last week, I spent two days up at Stanford for them to stage the lesion and tomorrow they'll do the actual surgery.

I apologize for not hooking up with Steve and Cory when they came up to Santa Cruz to see Courtney…… I just was not up for seeing anyone as all I had was bad news at the time.

On the positive side, we're hoping the pathology finds only pre-cancerous cells and they don't have to cut out too much of the pooper. I really want to remain as much of an

as possible. Thank goodness, when I get too anxious I can take a Xanax.

That's the story so far. Please keep Diana and me in your prayers and thoughts and I can't wait to get back riding with the Hooligans real soon.
