Hi all you gay men that have or are affected by cancer. I just want you to know this stage4 semi-colon is out here fighting a good fight and finding ways each and every day to live life not just survive. I have been on xeloda and avastin since dec and have one more round before my next PET scan. I am loosing the skin on my hands and feet but other than that, damn I look good girlfriend. Hope you all know there is support and hope foe each and everyone of us that are impacted by cancer.

    Limey,
    You are a fighter and because of this you will win! I know as a gay man that just had a low anterior resection that there are few support groups and resources for gay men. I feel alone and hope that you do not feel as lost as I did when I was first hear I had colon/rectal cancer. My thoughts are with you and wish I could email you and that we could be mutual supporters.
