I had a very similar diagnosis of colon cancer in 2013. The area of the colon looks to be the same. About year and a half later I had a stage 2 breast cancer removed followed by Chemo. I’m in remission from both now.
At the time of my colon cancer I was about to turn 51 (my only risk factor-over 50), I was not a smoker, ate mostly vegetarian and had no family history of cancer. The minute I got the diagnosis my first thought was about the trauma I’d gone through exactly one year earlier. I’ve done a lot of research about the connection between cancer and emotions, so it didn’t surprise me. Perhaps what Pearlsky experienced gave your immune system a hit that it couldn’t handle.
If you ever want to talk about the surgery, recovery, Chemo, any of it…email me. Sending you strength and love.
Shitty news indeed. I’m sorry.
Low grade is good, as is stage 3. Fingers crossed all goes well.
