I guess I should be sad and I am ... but not as much as I'm angry.

My best friend had colon surgery today to remove tumor .... but they couldn't get it all. The cancer has spread and is going through the abdominal wall and it is really bad.

I'm mad because I've been after her for years to get colonoscopy. She is such a freak about her "private parts" that she would only do the fecal smear. She is 74 and just had a colonscopy last week and they found a mass. She has had to be hospitalized 5 times over last two years for intestinal infections in her psosas area ... three surgeries and finally found the cancer.

If she had not been such a prude she might not be dying of cancer now.
