This week, we're kicking off the Global Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer Think Tank (#GEOCRCTT)! We're teaming up with experts, researchers, advocates, and survivors from 29 countries to confront a shared crisis: colorectal cancer is rising in young people—everywhere. Together, we're not just starting a conversation. We're fighting for answers, driving change, and working toward a future where fewer young lives are impacted. We'll be sharing updates daily right here on social, and even more inside our Community of Champions (link in bio)! Thank you to our global partners: @bowelcanceraustralia, @dice.europe, @bowelcanceruk, @globalcrc, @coloncanada, and @ibsal_iis. . . . #GlobalThinkTank #ThinkTank #Research #Cancer #ColorectalCancer #BowelCancer #ColonCancer #RectalCancer #Collaboration #Science
This Father's Day, we're honoring dads like Steve Greene. 💙 Steve's story began in November 2012 when, at 43, he noticed some unusual symptoms. He was active, healthy, and not overly concerned. But a colonoscopy revealed stage IV colorectal cancer. Just three years after losing his own father to prostate cancer, Steve and his family were stunned. But he faced the diagnosis head-on. With the support of his care team, family, neighbors, church, and the Fight CRC community, Steve finished his last round of chemo in January 2014. Now, more than a decade later, Steve is still raising awareness and pushing for earlier detection. "It was a shock to hear the doctor tell me I had cancer when I was 43 years old. Today, it's a true blessing to share my story and be involved with a great organization like Fight CRC. CRC is preventable in so many cases if we know our family history, pay attention to symptoms, and get screened. Forty-five is the new 50. Don't wait to get screened." We're proud to share Steve's story and celebrate the strength of dads everywhere.
"My father, Paul Shadle, was diagnosed with stage 4 colorectal cancer in 2016 at age 44. The day that he was diagnosed was terrible. I can remember falling to the floor and thinking, "Why him?" My dad was strong — in fact he was the strongest person I have ever met. He never once complained about what he was going through or said it was unfair (although that's what I thought and felt about it). He loved to share his story and help other advocates spread awareness about colorectal cancer. Looking back on that day my dad was diagnosed, I think about how strong he was and the strength that carried throughout his entire journey. As for me that day, I made it off the floor and got to watch one of the greatest men who has ever lived show me how to fight. Now, I ask myself, "How can I help others who are in the same situation he was in? How can we catch this cancer before it is stage 4 in other patients?" This is how I am carrying my dad's torch." - Ryan Shadle (@ryan_shadle) 💙 Today, we carry the stories and legacies of all dads — those still with us, those facing colorectal cancer, and those we hold in our hearts. We remember them. We honor them. We fight in their name.
Who are clinical trials for? Clinical trials are for anyone who meets the eligibility criteria, not just those with stage IV cancer or limited treatment options. Knowing your cancer stage, biomarkers, and treatment history is 🔑 when considering a trial. Not sure? Talk to your care team. Looking for a doctor who offers clinical trials?
