My grandmother recently had a stroke. She recovered very nicely and was home within a couple weeks. Today she was admitted again. This time she had a temp of 102 with elevated white count and abdominal pain. They did an ultrasound which showed a mass in the pelvis. They did a CAT Scan which showed a large tumor near the bottom of the large intestine, which had perforated. They are pretty sure it is colon cancer. They planned to do emergency surgery tonight but she stabilized so they decided to operate tomorrow. It is a high risk surgery, especially because of her age and recent stroke. Since we know all too well what a ruptured colon can do, I am really scared for her. Please keep her in your prayers. Thanks.
