Hi all, I know many of you are as worried as I am about John. I wanted to let you know I just heard from him and told him I would update you. He said he will be posting soon. His tumor was blocking his stoma, so he has been given a new stoma and it is functioning well. He said he is down to 9 stone, which I googled and learned is about 126 pounds. He is being fed by a TPN bag. He said he is in good form though. This is such great news!! -Liza Thanks for this, Liza. It is good news indeed! I think many of us have been sitting on the edge of our seats waiting to hear some news about John. So relieved that the news is positive. Laurie Just a semicolon Thank you so much for the update. I've been worried about him every day, so this bit of news is wonderful to hear. I am sorry that he's been going through so much, though. 😔 Just your friendly neighborhood ostomate. Thank you very much, Liza; it is a relief to read this good news. I think of John every day. Colostomy 4/30/18. Liza!! That's SO GOOD to hear that John is still managing his way through the challenges! I hope they took out the tumor blocking is old stoma!! Thank you for telling us you heard from him! Details John, Details... well, when you're up to it ofcourse! Lol! I have another kindergarten field trip today so I'll be checking in later just incase you updated us John!! I'm not sure where we are going today, but I'm going! I have a big secret & I am trying hard not to burst from the joy! Lol! Maybe I'll tell you all about it in private messages but not publicly here. Lol! I don't want to steal your thunder John! Lol! I'm sorry you've been going through so darn many challenges but you just stay strong & fight this stupid thing invading your 9 stone self!

Linda Hi Liza and all, I didn't know there was anything wrong with John and am sorry for that. John, I want you to know that my prayers are with you now that I've heard about your struggles. God bless you. Tony That's good to know , John thinking and praying for you every day . So sorry to hear of all John is enduring at the moment. It sounds like they are taking good care of him. I too was on TPN feedings before. I have faith that John is going to pull through this and heal. Many prayers going up! John- Still thinking of you often. Glad you are such a trooper, but hoping things get a little easier for you. Take good care of yourself. We miss you on here!! So get strong so you can come back to us. 😊❤️ -Liza
