Sobre IBD

I’ve decided to hear what the doctors at Duke have to say about my options. The last time I was at Duke was for open heart surgery. I arrived at six in the morning and found my way to the new heart center where I was greeted and given a hospital gown to wear. Then I was escorted to the operating room where I lay on a table with at least twenty medical personnel surrounding me. I was prepared for surgery, and all eyes were focused on me. I’m the professional actor who was contracted to be the patient on the operating table. The shoot and simulated operation went well. Everyone said I was the first patient to ever jump off the operating table after open heart surgery. It was a fun day and the real medical professionals thought John Travolta must have been hired for the part. Now reality - cancer and I’m going to Duke Cancer Center. Wow...I have cancer...this is no act!
