Meghan's Story

I was diagnosed at age 51 in February 2022. I had a positive Cologuard® test result and then colonoscopy and was told after I had a cancerous tumor at my sigmoid colon.

I had robotic surgery in March 2022 and began six rounds of chemo from April to July of 2022. I am now NED.

Meghan's Advice

Please do it! Screening beats chemo, hands down!

Trust your medical team! Science is amazing! There is so much out there to help you through this time! Cancer is treatable!
