I'm asking anyone who reads this journal, please next week say a small prayer for my family.  The reason I ask is for my mother.  To a long story short, a few days after christmas my mother has emergency surgery to save her life, while they were doing the surgery they found a tumor.  A week and a half after surgery, they diagnosis my mother with stage 3 colon cancer.  She has completed 1/4 of the scheduled chemo treatments, but had to stop treatment right now because they need to do another surgery next week. This wasn't a planned surgery (it was supposed to be done when she finished her 6 months of chemo), but do the exterme chronic pain on a daily basis they are doing the surgery early.  She plans on finishing the chemo after the surgery.  I'm worried about the surgery next week and also her chances of beating the cancer.  Here onocologist can't give any odds on survival because there aren't any studies with results of people starting chemo, stopping somewhere inbetween and then starting again.  I'm asking for kindness from strangers for my mother...............Thank you from the bottom of my heart..........
