This sucks. My uncle was diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer. Might as well have been handed a death sentence
inoperable?
nobody I ever knew in real life died of cancer but it must suck.
Something to keep in mind is that colon cancer is relatively easy to detect and treat in its early stages through colonoscopy, this is why screening for this type of cancer is important people!
True, but a lot of people don't do them.
my mom (at 54 yo) had stage 4 colon cancer and went through surgeries/chemo. She's been cancer-free for 3+ years now.
Cancer sucks
Yeah. They're trying to bring his strength back up and get rid of some lingering infections to administer chemo, but the outlook isnt good
