Larry update 3

I told Larry that I ought to go to more of his doctor's appointments.  I got to leave work early and Mom bought me lunch. Lunch did feel rather celebratory. Larry had the staples removed from his incisions, much to his relief. According to the Surgeon, things seem to be healing well.  As for the "other things" the surgeon recommended that no chemo or radiation treatment be done at this time.  This is what mom and I had both hoped for.  So basically now it is a matter of mom and Larry learning to make the most of living with a colostomy bag.  The hope is that Larry's balance and physical strength will continue to improve so that he can be as independent as possible.  Thank you again for your prayers and concerns for Larry.
