Dr. Stoddard found 2 polyps or nodules. We will have the pathology report on Thursday. Polyps are not cancerous but will turn to cancer nodules. Nodules are already cancerous. Dr. Stoddard says they have to come out and the only way is surgery as soon as he can do it.
Matt is set up for Surgery on December 23 at 7:30 in the morning. Dr. Stoddard said by Christmas Day IF. . . he was feeling up to it she would let him leave the hospital for a while to be with family! My side (Kitty's) of the family gets together on Christmas Day and we have switched it to be at our house in Ixonia so Matt can be apart of it.
Matt is having a colon resection surgery. This is where she cuts the colon open where the polyps are and takes them out and reattached the colon. She is not worried about my possibly having a colostomy done. She dose not for see that happening!! She cannot do it Laparoscopic surgery because Matt has had to many surgery's.
So on December 23rd Matt has to be in the hospital at 5:30 with a clean colon again!! He cannot eat or drink after midnight on the 22nd.
Thank you for all your continue thoughts and prayers for Matt! If you want to visit Matt he will be at Watertown Hospital Deceber 22 thru Dec 27. They said it is usually a 5 day stay.
