    Hi Moramore,

    A very warm welcome to our forum.

    I am sorry to hear that you are worried about sometimes having a little blood in your poo. There could be several different reasons for this and they don't always relate to cancer. Have you discussed this with your mum? Please see your GP to get this checked out. It would be unusual to have cancer at your age, but sadly, not impossible. You are just as well to get it checked out, as if it does turn out to be cancer, the sooner it is treated the more effective it will be.

    Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you/

    Kind regards,

    Jolamine xx
