A Familial Adenomatous Polyposis story

I found out at the age of 31 yrs that I had FAP, I was adopted and did not know about the disease in my birth dads family. I was not given a good out come after surgery but weeks afterwards the biopsies came in and there was no cancer, we all were so shock and gave praise for it. I was very sick afterwards for a year but with all the help and love of family and friends i got through it. They say it's a 50 % chance your child will have it, saddly all 4 of my children have FAP. We all had our surgeries at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto . It has been 24 yrs since my first surgery and I am doing good, I live life to the fullest, spend every minute with the ones that mean the most to me and do not bother with the ones that have no time for me. I can not stand drama and will not put up with people with it.
