Mastan

Postby jesselise » Mon Aug 22, 2016 10:17 am

I just wanted to let the colon club know my father, Mastan, passed away, at home, on August 12, 2016. I wanted to thank the colon club for their support and education both my father and myself received here.
I am the luckiest daughter in the world to have had such a brillant and loving father!


Take care and keep in touch
Jessica
Mastan's daughter

Went in for surgery for a cyst on my bladder, and they found colon cancer growing on the outside of the colon. Got to have two surgeries at the same time! Stage 3, one node involved.
