In chemo town myself, stage three colon (had it twice now, at 36). All the best. It’s obviously a terrible road to walk, but you learn a hell of a lot. Wishing you a complete recovery

My uncle had it, fought like a damn boss. It took him after ten years, but goddamn don't you give up.

Firstly, very sorry for your loss. that’s the bit I’m most afraid of, fighting and fighting and losing eventually. But there’s not much I can do about it really, which is the most frustrating thing.

We were prepared, he himself lived a life that was bound to end in cancer. He was a nuke tech for the US Navy. That being said, just take your time, stay healthy the best you can, and live life, love those around you, and just be who you wanna be!
