I hope everything goes well for you with the colonoscopy and your journey throughout this. 2 years ago I had my colonoscopy and 6 weeks ago had an ilonoscopy. Like your husband, my cancer spread to my liver and have just found out I’ll be on chemo for the rest of my many years. A kick in the guts. I wish you strength to the both of you, put in one hell of a fight 👍🇦🇺

@@claudianeymour63 thank you 🙏 update- I have went thru 6 rounds of chemo and 5 1/2 weeks of radiation. Just had surgery Dec 27 to remove the mass tumor. They sent me home after 7 days but something didn’t feel right so I went back to the hospital, the stitches didn’t hold and I spent the next 6 weeks in the hospital with a mini vac up my rectum, yes it was painful. I’m home now recovering ❤️‍🩹

Your courage in getting in front of a camera & telling your story is only helpful for many many people. Thank you for taking the time to do it. Good luck.

Thanks for sharing your story...i am also diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in April and im done with my surgery..right now i am having my chemotherapy...until now i don't have the courage to tell everyone what im going through except my family members..let's beat this together!!!

How are you now?

So sad you got this illness so young , but stay strong.My father got colon cancer when he was 42 years old , he survive.He startes eating more vegetables and wholegrainbread for more fiber in his diet.I wish you luck on your Journey. , you Will survive.🌹

I pray you are well Joel. God Speed!

My father was diagnosed with the same cancer as you he was also diagnosed with colon cancer and had the same operation.It’s heart breaking seeing your own father going through something that I wish I can take away from him.He needs to have chemotherapy and I’m just so scard of losing him from this horrible cancer.

Joel thank you for sharing your story, you’re very brave! I hope you’re doing better now and beat this thing! I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Colon cancer five and a half years ago and am considered cured at this point! When I was diagnosed it had already metastasized to my liver. Had surgeries, and 18 months worth of chemo and radiation here I am years later. I too did not fit the typical profile, I was very active, plant based diet, intermittent fasting, exercised no family history but I got it anyway. That’s why colonoscopies are so important at younger than typical ages. Here I am a survivor years later from advanced stage colon cancer, no bag, a partially brand new liver and a new outlook on life. You started talking about having to tell your mom which was very sad because I too had to tell my mom and it is so emotional. If I can beat this others can beat it as well! I will say though at the same time as the colon cancer I also had Non Hodgkin’s Splenic Marginal Zone lymphoma which is also Stage 4 and this type of lymphoma is incurable, but it’s doable and I’ve lived with it for years with not even having to do treatment yet so I’m good. You just have to move forward and enjoy life as much as possible! I went back to school to become a medic and am a volunteer first responder so that I can help others! Good luck!!

Turn to Jesus He loves you very much, He is the God of miracles, i was ill for a long time, but the doctors couldn't really help me, i don't blame them there was only so much that they could of done for me, Then Jesus gave me a miracle and healed me, God has done amazing things in my life and in the life's of people i know and love, He can do the same for you and yours, When you need Him call on Him, The bible tells us in Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved, He is the God of comfort and will be there for you when you call on Him, God saved someone i love from an illness leading to death, There is nothing impossible to God, Its as simple as accepting Jesus, and Trusting Him for your Salvation, He is the healer of the body and Saviour of our souls, And if you truly seek Him Jesus will answer you, i know this because He answered me when i called out to Him, Take care

Thank you for being so brave to talk so openly about your journey, really inspiring and wish you the very best for the treatment x

Many tears and smiles watching this Joel, wishing you so much good health, happiness and speedy recovery. This is your marathon but you are bounding through it. I am so proud of you and miss being with you in the team x

Joel, thank you for being amazing and sharing you battle and insights. You got this! May the sisu be with you - hugs from all of our EDU team!

Wish you the very best, Joel ! And a lot of health.

Credit for sharing this buddy! You will help a lot of people with this and hope it also helps you process everything. Good luck with all that is to come, everyone back in UK is thinking of you and your family.

Wishing you the best of luck for your upcoming treatment. Praying you get better, so brave x

Argh! So cool calm and collected Joel, hoping you have a happy ending too! Sharing your story like this is really awesome and will undoubtedly help others going through similar situations.

Hi Joel, thank you for sharing your story. It's wonderful to see you stay so strong (for yourself, Becky and your family/friends) during this challenging period. I look forward to having you back, playing basketball and hanging out once you've recovered. See you soon!

You are awesome and wish you speedy recovery.

Joel, you're such a legend! Thank you for sharing your story. I think you have redeemed yourself with this video - it's honest, real and funny! I'm rooting for you my friend. The good news in all of this is that I (hopefully) get to see you soon now that you're in Sydney.

Joely you made me laugh and cry! Thank you for sharing your journey and I hope this helps someone else xx

i'm glad you are sharing your story, and making it a little light-hearded on the side. most stories i see scare me. you kept me very engaged this video. i'm 18, and i occasionally see a little amount of blood in my poop. it's been like that since i was little... i've always had a very low fiber diet because i am a dairy addict. i love cheese, so my poop is usually hard and that probably caused hemorrhoids, but i really should get checked to see if that's the case, just in case. anyways, i hope treatment goes well, you got this. thanks for sharing.

Stay strong buddy... Thanks for sharing your story... My friend cudn't survive stage 2 Colon C... Your story will give hope to many people.... May god bless you with more power.

There's a young guy from the UK on here who talks about how his doctors wouldn't believe him. It came to the point where he had to take photos of his bowel movements for them to take him seriously. Perhaps they were labeling him or were assuming he lived a certain lifestyle. But those prejudices kept him from getting treated earlier on.

I now have to wait for biopsies. I am very worried and wish I had got this done much sooner. Best of luck to you!

I will pray for you Elliot. When we we pray we are telling the Lord what is on our mind and in our heart. When we read His word, the Bible, we are letting Him speak to us. It’s a package deal. The only way to have a healthy relationship is to let both parties speak. Do you have a Bible? I recommend an NIV (New International Version) or the NKJV (NEW King James Version [written in today’s language]). Lord be with you. I will be praying.
