If you don't mind, what type was it? And how was it treated?

You definitely don't have to answer if you don't want!

God has blessed you my man. I’ve been praying for you. I love your post, and I love your dedication and love for Big Blue. I pray that those that have nothing better to do than attack you find peace within themselves. None of us are perfect, and some find pleasure in attacking others. These few will reap what they sew. As for you the peace you have found will continue to grow. Ignore the weak that find pleasure in attacking you, because God is watching. Some will be posting in this thread.

Very happy to hear that. My mother just finished her treatment a few weeks ago. There are many families touched by it but you never truly understand its impact until it hits close to home. I know that cancer is as much of a mental struggle as a physical one, and I hope that you continue to do well in both aspects.

I was diagnosed on November 14th with stage 3 colon cancer and the stage 3 is a code that indicated that the cancer was also in another organ which turned out to be for lymph nodes my surgeon remove the mass in my: and took out 16 lymph nodes after I was released from the hospital I started with chemotherapy at Florida Cancer Specialists. the chemo injections was a cocktail made up of three drugs leucovorin, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin. I had eight treatments each one two weeks apart as time went on in the effects of the chemo had some time behind them the symptoms got worse to where I was feeling faint and did faint to the ground 3 * also I had cold sensitivity and dry mouth. I lost 27 pounds during the duration of the chemo so loss of appetite was actually my biggest concern Foods tasted the same like nothing and trying to swallow I had a gag reflex no wonder I lost so much weight

Great news Dave there’s almost nothing better than hearing you are cancer free. I’ve been blessed to hear that news also in my life. Brain cancer and I beat it thank god. It’s like a weight has been lifted off your body.
