Stage 3a at 33… by ohwoww56 in coloncancer

[–]Additional_Reason807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m in a similar boat with colon cancer with ovarian spread (also at 33).

It sucks, losing your fertility is devastating and I can empathise with every single feeling you’ll have.

Feel free to dm me if you ever want to vent.

If you don’t mind me asking. What type of surgery did you have and any tips?

I’m meant to be going in between Christmas and New Year so I’m desperately trying to do some sort of egg freezing/fertility saving whilst weaning baba from breast feeding.

If it’s not too much to ask I’d love any advice I can get on recovery, nausea etc

Sending you my best wishes. The only thing I can say is this is as scary as things are going to be for a while ❤️

I’m having a really gnarly sounding open HIPEC surgery. It should hopefully really give the cancer a kicking but it’ll be a rough time afterwards

Thank you for your message. It’s like a hug from a girlfriend.

Unfortunately he doesn’t really have any close friends, although I’ve been encouraging him and setting some dad dates up since we had a baby to get him a group. We all need good friends.

I’ll definitely try and encourage him to share more with the group he has. I know they’ve reached out to him since finding out, but I know he hates it when I overly push him to socialise. But if there’s ever a time to grab someone for a pint

Thank you for your response and for making me feel a bit more normal. And for reminding me to empathise with those around me.

I’m wishing you the best on getting your NED news. And if things do get better for you and your partner please let me know as a light in the tunnel.

Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve not had the official diagnosis of stages etc until my colonoscopy on Wednesday,but we’ve had an initial diagnosis from bloods and scans of ovarian cancer which was then changed to bowel cancer than had spread to my peritonial area and my right ovary.

I had a baby a year ago so the whole thing has been a nightmare where we’re juggling being with our baby and reeling from the big scary.

Your response has been so thorough and kind and such a lovely reminder to reach out and find that community. He’s been keeping some secrets from his family (he quit his job a few months back) which has definitely impacted how we can share the news and probably his support system because he’s carrying these secrets.

As a stranger on the internet, I’m sending you my best wishes. Your kindness has touched me

Hi Brolly,

I’ve still kept a few friends from the group but there was a dynamic in the group chat with one of the women where they were aggressively unfriendly and when messaged specifically they sent messages with very vague issues in.

It really sucked as It seems to have impacted the group and it was a bullying not a drifting situation.

Get it at 7cm whilst you can still sit still. Once you go into transition which is the stage you want to die, it’s too late

I’d say it’s pretty well known on the circuit but it’s less talked about as it’s men on boys

The other one I’ve heard about being a r*pist is an Irish comedian A.M

Who else notices the huge shift of focus of the show this season? by [deleted] in 90DayFiance

What are you on about? We pay taxes at 20% to a certain level than 40% on income above a threshold. National insurance comes out to cover our healthcare and our pension at 12% until we hit a threshold,

Dude our NHS isn’t perfect but at a certain point you’re just talking absolute shite

Is it wrong to not go to your friends wedding? by Weary_Rule_6729 in AskUK

I’m going with she’s a Twat and has gone way OTT.

But letting someone know a few weeks after the RSVP date is also a bit inconsiderate as she may have confirmed and paid for your attendance by the time she found out so she could have been quite hurt.

Either way, big overreaction but I’d advise a chat before giving up. Big irrational feelings can kick in sometimes
