Are these symptoms colon cancer?

First I would like to thank whoever you are for taking the time out of your day to look at my post. I am curious if my symptoms could not be cancer.
I have anemia, there is a constant pain from about 2 inches to the (from looking at me)right of my belly button that wraps around to my back it has been there for the last week I have stool that is shaped anywhere from almost deer like pellets (I still feel as though I need to have a large bowel movement only to get off of the toilet to find these)to gray crayons.
On very rare occasions, I will have what almost, but isn't something, that looks like what I use to have for my entire life. I have visible blood in my stool that varies from bright red to almost crimson.
I am tired but I will sleep for 9 hours. I have small bruises that I can't explain. There is no history of colorectal cancer however my mom has non-hodgkins lymphoma. I am 28, over weight, 5'11", 260lbs, Caucasian.
However, I eat fresh (home grown veggies and fruit all year round)fruits and veggies I am also the wife to a man who lost his mom at 21 and a mom to 3 young kids all under the age of 5.
If you need to know anything else, please just feel free to ask. I, like so many, do not have insurance and my husband is about to start work as a truck driver because there is not a large need for finish carpenters.
I live about 25 mins from downtown LA. If I have cancer I would like to go to Norris (where my mom has been for the last 13 years).
However, without insurance I just don't know. Any help would be appreciated. Once again thank you.
