Correct me if I'm wrong but here's the story that I know. Ros had been feeling 'a bit off' since the beginning of the year. She'd seen her Doctor on and off but nothing significant could pinpoint why she didn't feel so well. Then late May '09 she went to see her Dr but he was away on holidays. She saw a different Dr (same surgery) who took her complaints fairly seriously and decided to do some tests. Ros' health has been pretty good through her life. A few ops including an appendicectomy when she was late 20's and a cholecystectomy not long after she got married to Dave. From being a fairly sporty person, life became a little more restricted after her knee started to give her grief in recent years (probably a new knee is on the cards in the future). So our new Doctor organised an ultrasound. Following the results of this she had a CAT scan which revealed a very "speckled" liver. This looked suspicious and so a colonoscopy was organised. The results of this revealed Cancer of the Colon, with suspicion of secondaries in the liver. Ros is such a calm person. It's just step by step through the process. So referrals were made. First to Mr Izale (hope my spelling's correct) - he was the surgeon. Second referral was to the oncologist, Dr James (I think that's his name) and on with the process of healing Ros.
