Congrats Jaynee

Lucky 13

So Happy for you.

Chapter 32 Over the course of writing this journal I have mentioned a few times regarding how valuable the Colon Talk forum has been to me personally during my journey. I stumbled across the forum by accident a couple months after I was diagnosed. I read every day, literally dozens of posts as my im...

Congrats on 13 years Jaynee,
When I joined this forum GreenMonkey was my first reply to my first post. You were second. I have always found you to be one of the most informative, knowledgeable members here and read most of your post.
Thank you
Mike

As a Canadian I can’t complain about the level of care I’ve had here. Serious illnesses are prioritized. I’ve waited 11 months for a CT scan for something not urgent, I’ve also been squeezed in immediately numerous times over the past 6 months for many procedures. All without giant bills or premium...

I just had my 5th cancerversary. I go by surgery date February 26 2014. Surgery is when the cancer is removed. Many still go by dx.

I hope it all works out for you.

Yes, it is 18 months since he passed, but I'll never forget him Ride In Peace Brownbagger, ride with those hawks and know the world was a better place for you having been here. We all have regrets in our journey. I remember Eric was debating getting his teeth fixed but it came at a hefty cost. He h...

You are new. If you were here for a few years like myself and read the stories of those who skipped the chemo and now wished they didn't, you would do the chemo. This is a no brainer Stage III's do the adj chemo.

You need to put every nail in the cancer coffin.

Congrats Michael

At first when I came here you were a regular poster with a quirky wit.

I also thought you had the coolest name on here just in case you cared.

Hey Kiwi

Back in March 2014 I made my first post and you were the third reply with encouraging words. Congrats on your house and your 6 years NED. I am positive that many will gravitate to your post for encouragement and hope like we both did in the early days.

It was five years ago today when today seemed a lifetime away. For those new to the journey, take a deep breath, listen to your doctors, ask questions and never hesitate to get a second opinion. Butt!! Most importantly stay away from Dr. Google, I had myself dead and buried at least five times. Stil...

Seriously that was your first mistake. Sounds like you are on the right course now.

So many names who were regular posters when I got dx are now gone. Bev was a insightful person who imparted her knowledge in regular post that would always give me hope when I needed it most.

Thank you

RIP Bev

Nik seemed to be a very pleasant person, she was always wanting to help others get through their journey. I remember reading threads that had multiple pages and most of the posts were Nik's. She was just thanking everyone who would reply to her post with a simple Thank You. What was very clever was ...

Hey Snoop 5 years this Halloween since dx and not a week goes by without thinking about recurrence. The slightest tweak or ache always triggers the thought. The slight raises in my CEA triggers the thoughts. I will say that I am way better than I was in the early stages of my journey when recurrence...
