A long wait
I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in March and was supposed to start chemo a couple of weeks later. Wrong. Covid put me in the hospital for 21 days and then to a rehab center to fight a staff infection until 2 weeks ago Wed I came home. I have been ok to start chemo with a nurse, pt and ot coming to visit and hopefully I will start chemo soon

Sorry for your delay. I was diagnosed on March also. Ended up with pneumonia and my surgery was postponed until May 6th. Pathology showed it was stage 3b. I just got my port put in yesterday and start chemo next week. Prayers for you and that your chemo will start soon and you will do well with it.
