https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/I-ve-just-been-diagnosed/Bowel-Cancer/m-p/10873#M1068 Hi Kdubya59, I have been treated for colon cancer over the last 12 months, surgery & chemo. Bloody awful! Now waiting for a scan & next onc appointment to see if it worked.....hard but keeping my fingers crossed! People (medical ones) have very nicely and positively shared with me the good survival rates these days compared to 20 years ago. Lets hope our journey continues cancer free. Good luck!
