Hello so sorry to read this.  My daughter was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer.  She had been having symptoms for a good few years, her GP only referred her in August thus year.  A colonoscopy found a 4mm mass which after the biopsy came back as cancer.  She is only 26 with a 3 year old xx

Hi wow your story mirrors mine , I in hindsight before I saw blood did have different bowel movements but just put it down to diet , urgency going to toilet is a symptom as I've learnt , waiting for diagnosis was without a doubt the worst bit for me , once I knew and my treatment was in place I felt alot better, obvs not the best outcome ! Hopefully yours will be a better one , mines is 3 cm too , im on my last cycle of chemo on Friday, then scan and surgery at a later date , thinking about you , keep intouch xx

I am sorry that your daughter took so long to be diagnosed. But glad she has you as her Mum x

Ah thank you I am doing my best.  It’s hard for all of us.  Please let us know how you get on xxx

Good that your chemo is nearly over. I hope the scan and surgery go well x

Thankyou , hope everything goes well for you too xx

Morning how are you? Xx

Morning how weird I was just about to message you , my chemo fri was the worst yet but also the last , in pain with hands and arm but eased a bit now , how is your daughter doing? And yourself ? Xx

You must feel relieved chemo is done? My daughter has her 3 round of chemo Wednesday.  She has just messaged me she is badly constipated and it is hurting where the tumour is.  She has an appointment at the hospital today for blood, I said she needs to mention it to her oncologist xx
