Okay BP family,

This is what family is about, even a virtual one;

@@Mom26 around her son and family....they need our prayers.

It doesn't matter what faith - just pray.

<3 The outpouring of love and support has brought tears to my eyes. I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that last Tuesday life was beautiful. And last Wednesday, our world was shattered. How the hell does your 28 year old son not only get rectal cancer - a cancer they pretty much only see in the elderly, but have it already at Stage 4 with 5 sizable lesions on his liver? How do you hear the words "incurable", "unfortunately", etc. and not just crumble? And how the hell do you deal with this 3 weeks post-op?

My heart is broken. Thank you for your support.

You certainly have my prayers. We just had this happen in our family too. It's stage 4 & terminal colon & liver cancer. I will pray for your son & Bill also. I will also ask my Bible study group to include your son in our prayers. My daughter came thru tyroid cancer & a friend of ours was stage 4 breast cancer & survived. There is always hope & I believe in the power of prayers.

It's just earth shattering when you're touched so personally. Prayers for your family as well.

Hello I'm not very religious but know there must be something more out there . I'm also not very good with words. But felt the need to send you my wishes to you and your family. What a terrible time you are all going through life seems very unfair at time and no one can answer why this happening to your family.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
