About charliej

Hi I am 68 years old and have been told I have stage 4 bowel cancer which has spread to my lungs and liver and is inoperable I have decided to have chemotherapy which will start soon. My biggest difficulty was telling my children as I have always been fit and played a lot of sport and I am going to be as positive as I can to try and get through this . I would like to hear any positive stories from people who have a similar condition and I am determined to be as positive as I can. It has been so difficult at this time with the coroner virus and I would like to hear also from anyone who just wants to chat. Please stay positive. charliej
