Brother's Colon Cancer 2nd Surgery Results

My brother appears to be fine after his second surgery. They found no cancer...just a lot of scar tissue from the first surgery and that is what was causing his blockages. They again had to do a re-section which means he will have a colostomy bag for at least another six months, at which time, they will decide whether they will be able to re-assemble everything.

The really good news to me is, my youngest sister was able to convince him to seek out the advice of another physician (or two). Hopefully, it's someone with more of a bedside manner and is willing to direct my brother towards more "natural" things he can do to improve his condition. Only time will tell...but at least he's starting to listen to other people instead of the surgeon who's currently got everything in his hands.
