If caught early, colon cancer is one of the most treatable cancers so stay positive
She'll be in my prayers though.
G will find out Wednesday if the chemo is shrinking the tumors so prayers are very welcome at this point. Two high school "garage bands" did a cancer research benefit concert on Saturday night in honor of G and everybody wore their "Cancer has no friends" t-shirts. The kids did a great job. It is heart warming to see something like this bring out the good in these teenagers. G's mom seemed pretty stressed out and she generally puts on a happy face for everybody all the time, even all through her own bout with breast cancer. It's all pretty darn scary
