You know what you want to put up with, and what is too much for you. all so some one said they had to take somee stuff to clean out there belly I been through lot of timess last time was about a montth or so. they put a tube down my through. last time I was put to sleep they want to open me up again I said no here was to much left that they could not get good pictures. first time I was in I.CQ. 4 months. the doctor who opened me up sid they would not do it again i would have to a clicnk . at my ageit,s not worth it. have a belly all the time had a dad,sister,aunt all die of belly caner. it does not mean i have. I think about it a lot. got to get it out of my mind. that is why i do not post a lot. just feel bad. You continue to be an inspiration to all of us for your fighting spirit and the way you manage to do things ---"you can't keep a good man down" must have been written for you !
