New adenocarcinoma
I'm not a doctor and have never been invited to play one on TV. This said, if I had to choose any organ I might lose to cancer, I think that the appendix would be about as high in the polls (internals, natch) as Obama is in California. I look forward to baiting you for years in these precincts (or on our old turf if, you know, there's ever any progress on that front).

cordially,

its one of the rarest forms/locations of cancer and because it rarely presents itself as it did in my case (early as appendicitis)...its often not discovered until much too late..its a quick spread to liver in men and ovaries in women..so oft proves deadly.

I was lucky.

That said...having to have some portion of my anatomy removed..that and the few inches of surrounding area are probably not going to missed.
