Having been on the receiving end of hearing the big "C" diagnosis three times,the second time I didn't even know anything was wrong.
I can't stress enough the need to be pro-active. I have had to have a colonoscopy regularly and will continue to be monitored because they found polyps...I'm not taking any chances because colon cancer is slow growing and it's too late most of the times when symptoms show up.
I'm standing on my soap box and yelling at the top of my lungs...Please, be pro-active, don't let this dang disease take another person because they didn't get tested.
S.D.
