Research is helping us piece together the puzzle of early-onset #colorectalcancer. 🧩 Certain strains of E. coli (not the kind that causes food poisoning) produce a toxin called colibactin. This toxin can damage DNA, causing mutations and increasing the risk of developing colorectal cancer later in life. These mutations are much more common in patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer at a younger age. While there is likely more than one cause in the rise of CRC in young adults, this discovery provides an important clue to researchers looking for the "why" behind increasing cases of early age onset colorectal cancer.
Our local drop-off challenge is BACK—and we need you! 💙 Last April, #FightCRC ambassador and ROCKSTAR advocate Kasia hand-delivered letters to her local reps, helping keep #colorectalcancer top of mind while they were home. Now it's your turn. 🎯 The goal: Protect funding for the CDC's Colorectal Cancer Control Program (DCPC). 📬 How to help: Deliver a handwritten message to your members of Congress at their local office. It's personal, powerful—and takes just 2 hours on your schedule. 🛑 Why now? The President's budget proposes eliminating DCPC. Without it, we risk losing access to lifesaving screenings and critical data on young-onset CRC. We're showing up, speaking out, and fighting for more time. Let's flood congressional offices with messages they can't ignore. Join our advocacy group in the Community of Champions to access everything you need! . . . #ColonCancer #ColorectalCancer #RectalCancer #Congress #CancerSurvivor #Funding
We’re back with more LARS swaps for our #colorectalcancer community navigating low anterior resection syndrome. 💙 LARS can happen after low anterior resection surgery—and the symptoms aren’t easy. But sometimes, small swaps can bring real relief. Have you found any tips or tricks that help? Share them below! ⬇️
For all our #colorectalcancer survivors dealing with LARS, this is for you. 💙 Low anterior resection surgery is one option for treating colorectal cancer. It involves removing part of the colon with cancer and reconnecting the remaining pieces. This “hook-up,” called an anastomosis, shortens the colon—and that can lead to low anterior resection syndrome (LARS). We’re talking urgency, stool clustering, constipation, pain… the list goes on. That’s why we asked our badass friend CC to share her top tips for managing LARS. Have any of these worked for you? Stay tuned for part two!
