Plastic utensils have helped some people.

If you were diagnosed, or are a caregiver to someone, with colorectal cancer under the age of 50 - we have exciting news! Applications for Colon Camp are now open and will be accepted until January 31, 2020. This year's retreat will be held at the beautiful Five Star Retreat from July 8-12, 2020. Do...

Absolutely! If you know any previvors, please encourage them to apply. Evelyn Keener (http://colonclub.com/2017-featured-survivors/evelyn-t-keener/) was our first previvor to be featured, and we welcome anyone else that falls into that bucket. Excellent question Jacques.

I have had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Barzi on a patient/Dr. panel. She is truly one of those doctors that want to know what makes her patients tick because it helps her to deliver better and more personalized care for each patient. Check out her blog post. https://uscnorriscancer.usc.edu/csa...

Hey Rob,

Have you tried seeing a physical therapist? I wonder if they can help break up some of the scarring. Scarring has caused some pelvic pain for me, but PT has definitely helped. Might be worth it if you can find a pelvic specialist to work with.

P.s., thanks for the well wishes!

Phuong, congratulations on your new position! I know you'll do a great job. I have two questions for you. (1.)

I remember when you first joined! Congratulations from a fellow "old timer" on the forum.

You guys are the best bunch ever. I practically lived on Colon Talk for years, and this place has taught me so much. It was the first place I went to share my cancer news - to celebrate the good with all of you, and to take a breath with the bad...but always with Belle's (NWgirl) words in my heart: ...

We are very excited to introduce the 13 survivors and caregivers that were selected for the 2020 On The Rise magazine and Colon Camp retreat! We thank ALL of this year's applicants for sharing your stories with us - you all deserve to be heard and we hope that you will apply again next year. Congrat...

It's important to know where you come from. The Colon Club was the beginning of my understanding of the importance of advocating for myself and others. Our founder, Molly, has published her book in honor of 20 YEARS after being diagnosed on her 23rd birthday and you can get it now on Amazon! Bonus p...

All but one of the 2019 featured survivors and caregivers will be there. Our President, Trish Lannon, and our VP of Operations, Kristina Smith, will also attend. I'm sure there will be others, but I don't have a full list.

CRguy, it's folks like you that inspire me to keep pushing forward. Thank you brother.

This Colon Talk forum was the place that started it all for me.
