Colon Cancer Survivors 10-20 Yrs Page1

Colon cancer survivor, Efren Valero, now 59 years old, currently 13 years in remission. I operated on him 13 years ago in Manila Doctors Hospital.  He was 46 years old then.  I cut a segment of his colon that contained the cancer and then did  a reconnection.  I did NOT have to do a colostomy.   Histopathology results: adenocarcinoma, moderately differentiated, with mucinous component, with full thickness involvement of wall, nodes negative.  He had no additional treatment after the operation.  Just check-up and symptom and sign directed surveillance. We thank God for the remission.

Colon cancer survivor, Conrado Rubin, now 81 years old, currently 10 years in remission. I operated on him 10 years ago (2005) in Ospital ng Maynila Medical Center..  He was 71 years old then.  I cut a segment of his sigmoid colon that contained the cancer and then did  a reconnection.  I did NOT have to do a colostomy.   Histopathology results: adenocarcinoma.  He had no additional treatment after the operation.  Just check-up and symptom and sign directed surveillance. We thank God for the long remission.

 I am Conrado Rubin, with the help of my son George, I went to your google account and saw our picture. I am very grateful for your help “Bonus” for my life, as I told you this morning.
