Tony had colon cancer and his entire colon was removed yesterday. I just learned I can hear his program on www.tonysnow.com. John Gibson announced the successful surgery this morning and said Tony was listening. So if you'd like to send a personal message, call in.

Tony, one of our dearest friends just learned last week that he too has colon cancer and has already had a colostomy. We brought photos of GWB and Ronald Reagan to the hospital to keep him company. He knows you are both fighting this cancer which discriminates against no one. He is a BIG NRA fan and I told him to just imagine that someone is trying to take his gun away as he wages this fight!

We're praying for you and your family during your recovery and giving thanks for your very skilled surgeon!

Praise be to God that Tony has had a successful surgery.

My husband had two sections of his colon removed in early Dec. due to colon cancer. He was fortunate in not needing a colostomy. He has just completed his 4th chemo treatment. He gets several drugs every other week via a catherer in his upper chest.

The main side effects have been fatigue, some nausea (which meds control) and sensitivity to touching anything cold.

We have found the Wellness Community to be very supportive and have learned so much from the programs, talking to other cancer survivors & attending the counseling offered.

May God bless Tony with His Healing Grace.
My prayers will continue for Tony and his family.
