I agree with shequilts- our neighbor just died of colon cancer - around 70 y.o. Never had a colonoscopy. By the time they found it it was too late and had spread- she was gone in two months.
So I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. I know I would be really p!ssed off if I went to the doc because I wasn't feeling good and found out I only had two months to live. And I would be kicking myself the whole two months.
Scowlkat, you say you just can't face one more thing - that is the reason you SHOULD get the test. Much better to face the test than to face cancer.
