I am happy so many enjoyed his story. I know some here will face surgery in the future. I am 68 so think I can avoid it but you never know. Good to know there is life after surgery - many times a better life!
I was on a bowling league when about 30 years old with a woman for about 6 years and never knew until then that she had her colon removed and an ostomy (?). She was young, healthy and very active. Certainly seems a great tradeoff for all the medications, hospital stays and pain many here are going through!
