Colon - Stage IV |
Age at Diagnosis: 32
My name is Jen French – My wife was diagnosed in April 2021 with stage IV colon cancer. On the same day she was diagnosed I found out I was pregnant with our daughter after a year of infertility.
Kirsten had no signs or symptoms and when we went in to the urgent care she was told it was a UTI and 3 days later she was diagnosed. She had biomarker testing and was KRAS G12V TP53R175H MSS. Kirsten was NED Dec 2021-Oct 2022 and it reoccurred in her bones.
Kirsten fought for 2.5 years and passed away in December 2023, 9 days before our daughter’s second birthday.

"I fight for my wife and daughter so no other 2 year old has to lose a parent to this preventable disease."
