After close to a year of doing the rounds at various hospitals in connection with the diagnosis, surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, dad finally was back to his healthy, bouncy self. He began to work as he did before, do things like he had pre-diagnosis and in simple terms, lived life on his terms.
What he got back to which was unnerving was, his irregular meal timings. AGAIN. The whole world could tell him not to do that, but dad would never listen. For him, a task well done was worth more than a full happy tummy, had he a choice between the two :)
It was during this period that he got me married, was happy to have 'settled down' his daughter and got on with his passion for work.
He was accustomed by now to the colostomy and the bag, but yet, desired to get back to 'normal' again.
Finally, in March 2010, he got himself operated, closing out the ostomy and letting his anal passage be once more functional, after a PET Scan.
