After 2 colonoscopy procedures, husband tests came back abnormal. There was one palup pre cancer which they took out but something else is wring. Maybe the lympnoids are cancer? Blood tests are the next step! Really concerned but have faith that there is a way to treat this! Any comfort and support would be greatly appreciated! Hub has gone thru radiation for tumor in left eye which has not gotten better. Pray,keeps us both going each day! :)

You and your family will be in my prayers tonight! Don't quit. That's the important thing. Don't give up :)

Don't force the conversation, but when it is initiated by the patient, just listen. Getting the tests takes time, getting the news is quick, processing the thoughts and feelings takes time.

I am a breast and lung cancer survivor, and I have a friend battling metastasized rectal cancer who is suffering from many negative side effects of the chemotherapy.

Hang in there.
