If your hospital, cancer cener, or what-ever has a colorectal support group, I would encouragee you to join it. I didn"t discover this group untill I was NED two years out, Those newly dxed with colon cancer need to hear our stories. They still think cancer is a death
Projection. By meeting with them and describing their future,they can realize that cancer can be beat--no matter how rocky the road.
Join a group and help our fellow cancerites!!!!!

Support group
I have yet to find a colon cancer support group but the group I do attend with has a couple people with our disease. It is helpful to see people living with cancer and having camaradamie. There is a lot to learn and share in these groups and to know you are not alone.
Our cancer wellness has Dr. presentations, a culinary evening featuring foods to fight cancer, counseling and exercise/healing programs. It helps to put the diagnosis in perspective and keep it in positive.
We recently had a cancer walk to raise money for the programs.
I agree -join a group -knowledge is power to help fight this disease.....and help newly diagnosed.0 -

The support groups around here all meet in the early evenings. By that time of day, I'm just worn out and don't have the energy to go anywhere. All I do is lay in bed and watch TV and the only place I feel like going is to the bathroom, and that will get put off until it's almost too late.0 -
Agreed
While being on this site is helpful for myself as well as others, face to face is great too if you can swing it. I went to Gilda's Club for a while as well as a group at a hospital. I believe STRONGLY that all of us have a responsibility to help others who are in a similar situation.
Many who get through this don't look back and stop coming here. Of course everyone can do what they want, but I believe their presence would help others who are fighting cancer. Some want to forget cancer ever happened, there's no way I could do that. It happened. If my experience can help others then I feel I need to remain accessible to help others...
It's just how I am I supposed...0
