Re: My darling husbands diagnosis

lHi Cheryl I am 31 years old and like Ron was diagnosed with stage 3 bowel cancer at 29. Times can be very daunting, it can be good going on the internet but what i was told was to read the cancer council info as its definitely correct. The chemo isnt an easy ride but i found i wasnt as sick as some other people having chemo for other things. Lots of rest and listening to your body is my advice and becareful with cold things/food, the nurses will explain all that, i used to ask hundreds of questions and found the chemo nurses fantastic more helpful than my oncologist at times!! Goodluck to you and your husband on this journey lots of positive thoughts coming your way Regards Stacey
