no good way of saying this: the colon cancer is back

so i just got word from julie that the surgeon, dr allred, called and the colon cancer is back. that is what the mass was in her body apparently. they tested 5 times to make sure what kind of cancer it was and there is no estrogen and therefore it is not ovarian cancer. even though the colon was clean on the colonoscopy apparently it had spread to the outside of the colon which is why it didn't show up. he said it was "metastatic cancer" which essentially means that the original cancer spread to the outside and it "beat" the chemo she had previously been on. when asked what the treatment would be, her surgeon just said that was not for him to say, but he assumed more chemo. julie asked if this makes his initial statement that chemo would just prolong her life but not cure it, he said, "i don't know" dr allred advised that she see him again aug 19 for a follow up and then go see the oncologist. that is not ok with me. i want her in asap to see the oncologist, i was second opinions and i will be looking into cancer treatment centers of america. PLEASE have her in your prayers. she is not taking this well, no one is. i don't give up easily, and i know she doesn't either so please keep her in your prayers as we fight what looks to be a very rough fight. i will keep you posted. please feel free to post comments here or email me at mrsavery678@gmail.com if you have questions or messages, but, julie prefers to be left alone right now. she told me that she appreciates everyones concerns and well wishing phone calls but she needs some time to process this in private. please don't take offense, just understand she needs some space. i will keep you informed. thank you so much. - tobra
