The Kathy Spurlock Blog

This blog has been created to help all of Kathy's friends and family keep in touch and updated, as she undergoes her latest... what should we call this? Adversity? Experience? Trial?
Kathy, we want you to know our thoughts and prayers are with you and Larisa and Dad!

An update on the events: [I'll make the format prettier later on!]
Mon. 2/9/09 Kathy was experiencing a lot of stomach pain.
Tues. 2/10/09 Kathy was taken to ER, but released.
Wed. 2/11/09 Another trip to ER. Tests.
Thurs. 2/12/09 The diagnosis: Colon cancer that has metastasized to the liver!
Fri. 2/13/09 During surgery, 30" of the small intestine is removed, and 10" of the colon.
The doctor noted prolific cancer seeds in Kathy's abdominal cavity, small but visible, and
3-4 main spots of cancer on the liver. The doctor felt it would take a specialist to work with
the liver.
Mon. 2/16/09 Kathy remains in the hospital, but is recovering well from the surgery.
Tues. 2/17/09 Home from the hospital, Kathy is resting comfortably.
