he had colon cancer 7years ago had it removed everything seemed ok, came back year 7 in sacrum stage 4, hes been goin thur chemo and radiation since october, it is now in his blood stream not sure wat that means, cuz they didnt find it anywhere else in his body, but hes taking 1 day at a time, and goin on about his business, fishin and workin on cars. i really do believe now positive thinking plays a very big role in fighting this, when he was diagnosed the second time he was in such bad shape, his weight was really low, had no fight in him at all. and now its just become a part of his life. hope this helps sum1 with the fight, my heart goes out to you all.
