my april fools has been a really bad

[jay97lt1]

Ive been having some blood troubles recently. I had some test done last week and i got my results back today. Im in early stages of colin cancer and im only 37 years old. What a horrible April Fools.

[firebird_1995]

I'm so sorry to hear that man. At least it was caught in the early stages. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask. I'll be praying for ya. Stay strong

[Fastbird]

Oh dude, I'm so sorry to hear that. As Chris said, at least it's been caught early. Stay strong man, we're all here to support you.

[Sahara54]

Sorry to hear that man. You have an entire community behind you.

[spikester7878]

Sorry to hear it. It is good you caught it early! as previously said you have a big community to help you out if you need anything.

[jay97lt1]

Im trying to keep a positive outlook. I have to stay strong for my family Ive only been married alittle over a year and have 2 kids cant let them see me stressing over it. I go for a CT scan saturday to see if it has spread anywhere else and probably have sugery next week to remove the cancer thats all I know for now. Thanks for the support guys.

Good luck man. Keep us updated.

[firebird_1995]

You said it, stay strong for your family, but don't overstress yourself over it. Whatever is found, get a quick second opinion, then put your care in the doctors hands. I've watched my dad beat stage four cancer twice now. Modern medicine has came a long LONG way. Find you a good source of positivity and tap in often. You'll be fine

[meissen]

Wow - sorry to hear. :(

[harner]

Healthcare technologies have come a LONG way and continue to evolve the means of "modern medicine". I wish you success with any issues. My advice is to stay positive as it's in the early stages and there's a strong possibility to kick this thing early.

[ZGOBYBY]

Keep your chin up man, like you said, for your family. Sending positive thoughts your way.

Cancer dr tom, surgey dr fri and ct scan sat. Should I tell my 13 year old daughter I have cancer or just tell her I just got to have a surgery. It was though telling my parents.

I dont know ur kid... but I can tell u... guidance comes to me with many kids that are "distracted" with home/family issues that they have concerns for... Although not little kids..they just dont have the coping skills yet. (fyi: Im sro in a middle school;6,7,8th grade...so same age group).

In the end...please... its ur decision, Im just telling u my observations.

I agree with Popo on telling your 13 year old. Stay strong and positive, both my dad's had cancer and beaten it cause thay caught it early. As everyone else has said we're all behind you. Feel free to vent or PM here if needed.

[jay97lt1]

Well I went my cancer Dr and got some good news it is cancer. But in the very early stages its more per cancer with some cancer cells. Its not to the spreadable stage yet. Surgery should take it out 100%. Maybe I can sleep now. Saturday I have a Ct scan and getting 2 units of blood to build my bloot count back up before surgery.

That is so fantastic that it was caught in time man. I am very happy for you. Im sorry about the med reaction, but at this point if that is the worst you have to deal with.... well, you know.

[jay97lt1]

I couldnt be happier with the our come. Dr ask if he could use my case in a cancer study board, where all the local cancer dr, s and surgeons talk about one case and try the figure out what caused it. He suggested my case because of my age. Of course I said yes.
