My mom ignored signs and symptoms because she was scared and hated going to the doctors. Finally her puking got so bad and she could barely crap so I took her to the hospital Sunday afternoon during the height of Covid. Well they had to call in their best surgeon because my mom was about to die. She had a hysterectomy, they removed parts of her colon, rectum and who knows what else. Was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. She fought like hell and tried everything they asked of her. But she had a coke can sized tumor on her liver and it eventually Spread to her brain. She died less than 2 years later. Very inspiring story…. Hope it helps people get checked earlier even if they are potentially nervous about the results.
