2013 was a really bad year for me My Mother died in July , I was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in August ,had a transanal resection on 5th September then ,after I was home ,the surgeon phoned to say the cancer was deeper than he thought ,so on 12th September I had the big operation. Followed by 6 months chemo. The cancer came back in my lung and this was operated on the 24th February 2016. At the moment I am in remission and hope to stay that way.
