Hi All,

My name is Shannon. I have stage 4 colon cancer metastasized to my liver. I'm a single mom of an amazing six-year-old boy. I had emergency colon tumor obstruction surgery at the end of December. Just completed chemo #12 with two more to go before I get another CT scan for liver surgery consideration.

I look forward to connecting and getting to know everyone.

    Hi Shannon,

    Same boat here, Stage 4 with mets to liver, discovered during ER visit for abdominal pain last month. Stent put in as a temp fix, then colon resection the following week. Will start chemo next week.

    I’m sorry you’re going through this and can’t imagine how hard it must be with a little one. Wishing you strength and sending you positive vibes 💗 This is beatable.
