Personal update - medical issues

I spent most of a week in the hospital in late May, where I was diagnosed with colon cancer (discovered during a colonoscopy and endoscopy). Severe anemia, from the slow internal bleeding, is what landed me in the hospital for an emergency blood transfusion. I have not been able to get an appointment with an oncologist yet, so I don't know what awaits me in the weeks and months ahead. I image a lot of the summer will be spent at the medical center getting tests, scans, transfusions, and hopefully a simple surgery, but I don't know the stage or treatment options yet. My red blood cell levels are slowly improving as I take iron supplements (also due to the blood transfusion and two intravenous iron infusions in the hospital). But it's still low enough that I have to spend my afternoons in bed, too weak and winded to do anything but rest. I would appreciate your prayers.
