Rectal Cancer

Just diagnosed with Rectal Cancer the day after my 50th birthday. I will beat this. My family and friends positive response and help has been overwhelming. 

  • Hello Bungit627147

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently been diagnosed with rectal (bowel) cancer. It's often hard to hear this news but it sounds like you have a really positive approach to what lies ahead. It's great to know that your family and friends have been so supportive as well. This is all going to stand you in really good stead as you begin treatment. 

    We do have some information on our website about rectal cancer that you may find helpful. If you would like to talk things through with one of our nurses at any point you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to offer any advice, information and support they can. 

    Do keep in touch Bungit627147 and let us know how you get on over the coming weeks and months. We're here to offer any support we can. 

    Best wishes,
