Donald was diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma of the colon on January 30, 2017. He had surgery to remove the tumor on February 10, 2017. On February 14, 2017, he was transported to Littleton via ambulance to Littleton Adventist because his heart went into V Tach where he remained to be monitored until February 19th. He went home where he rested for a few days until an x-ray confirmed there was more fluid around his heart and then he was transported to St. Mary's in Grand Junction via ambulance again on February 24th. They monitored him there until March 1st.
As of now everything with his heart is okay, which means we can concentrate on the original horrific reality....he has colon cancer. On March 21st Donald will go back to GJ to meet with the Oncology team to find out what the plan is to kick this cancer in the ass!! Thank you all for your continued support and we will continue to add updates when we are able to. Love to all.
