I had surgery on Tuesday. The initial thought was to remove my appendix and that would be it. Well, the Dr. had to do a little more than that. The appendix was malignant and stuck to the abdominal wall. He had to remove my appendix, part of my right colon, part of my right abdominal wall, and the lymph nodes in that area. I was on the table for over three hours and was released last night. There will be future treatment of either low level chemo and/or some radiation once all the pathology comes back but the future is bright. I AM alive and plan to stay that way for a while longer.
Now for the bad news, my trolling motor malfunctioned at the Diascund Bash and I need to send it to NC for repair. There are only a few repair places in the USA that will work on my motor. I hope to get it back before the Beaverdam Bash.

Wow Pan, I didnt' realize it was that serious. Get well man!
( I had a good joke about the new Bass Pro above Richmond doing appendectomies while you shopped) but I won't use that now.
Seriously dude, hope this all works out.
Do gooder since April 26, 2009!
I hope all turns out well for you Keith. Too bad about the trolling motor, you can always pull crank baits.

Ouch-e-wa-wa Man! You pulled a number on that one. Hope your recovery goes well. When do you expect to be back on your feet?
What kinda trolling motor is it and what happened to it? Did I kill by being in the boat?!

i hope and pray you get better
The fishing was good,it was the catching that was bad
I hope all goes well, maybe you can catch a ride for Beaverdam, I'm sure somebody will have a spot for the guy who knows the lake.
Bummer, man--how long did your doc drydock you? If you need chemo or radiation get your doc to prescribe some of Jeff's herbal treatments.
Good grief, sorry to hear about all that. Hope all goes well with your treatments and recovery. Take care and get well soon.
I had another flare up of diverticulitis, gotta go for another CT scan Monday. May need surgery myself.![]()
