My dear brother and colon cancer
My brother was told he had colon cancer January 2009. He passed away feb 18 2010.
He had been going to the doctor monthly complaining of pain in his side and stomach for about 8 month before was told he could have cracked a rib coughing. He asked for a scan. That's when he found out he had colon cancer.
He was such a fighter; 4 different types of chemo.
Don't listen to your doctor if you have a gut feeling. Demand a test.
My brother was the youngest of 9 children. He stayed at home with his 4 sisters nursing him.
He passed away at home, which he wanted. He passed like an angel. He looked like the little boy we adored and loved so much. His parents both 85 years old miss him so much; for them it was hard to imagine Gerard passing before them he was their full time care taker for 10 years
