Hi,
my mum had bowel cancer about 5 yrs ago now, the chemo was not too bad on her, obviously it isnt nice, but like everyone else..you get through it.
she is now 5 yrs post treatment and doing well...good luck to you, but i'm sure you'll be just fine.
Hi
My father had bowel cancer and got the 5 year all
clear last year, my sister and I both had it last year and finished
chemotherapy in Jan 08, been given our first year all clear.
I had to have the picc line which meant carrying it for 3 days every
fortnight, also chemo through the vein in hospital. I admit I went for
the positive approach in public. But the nurses and Doctors were great.
I get my first official check up in August.
Just remember to rest and when your up to it, get out and have fun.
Regards
