Hello and thank you for posting. I am sorry to hear about your diagnosis with Stage T1 rectal cancer.
We do have web pages on statistics for survival, but it is important to remember that these are an average. For a more accurate response do talk to your hospital team who know you and your cancer.
Prehabilitation, the care you give yourself before you start treatment, is good to help you feel as physically and mentally prepared as you are able. Do read more about that on our website.
Take care, and if you want to talk to the nurses do call 0808 800 4040. Lines are open mon-fri, 9-5.
Sarah.
