Wow that was an awesome story of survival that gets the word out for colon cancer. It seems everyday, I hear of someone diagnosed with colon cancer. Maybe this will get some more awareness out there.

Thanks for posting this! He's become an inspiration to me in how he deals with it in the media. He doesn't shy away from the fact that it was colon cancer.

Yes he is and he's not afraid to discuss it. I kind of like him, not to sure about his 999 plan, not sure if it would ever be passed but a good idea.
