Hi, I am new here. I had a diagnosis of pre-cancerous cells detected resulting in right hemicolectomy with nodes surgery on 26th August. They have said it is the right size and shape for cancer but the tests have only come back as pre-cancerous. Well this whole thing threw me into a spin at my consultants appointment and this has been compounded by my beautiful Dad passing 10 days ago. My original surgery date was 7th August, but had to be changed as this is my Dads funeral.
I have had pre-habilitation and pre-op appointments this week. I would welcome any advice to get my head through this to surgery. I am off work as I have had a funeral to arrange and be with my Mum who is 83 and obviously devastated at losing her husband of 61 years. Work haven’t been too understanding but I really don’t care. with love to you all
