I've heard this before (I'm sure your mom told you her story). I had a oscopy scheduled for last month but I cancelled because it didn't fit my schedule. My wife had this done last year.
By the by, let's get together this coming weekend to look at your slideshows!
Maybe after you two look at slideshows together you could go and get scoped (oscopy) together. Called it BONDING. It is good to have a support system.
Colorectal cancer, also called colon cancer or large bowel cancer, includes cancerous growths in the colon, rectum and appendix. With 655,000 deaths worldwide per year, it is the third most common form of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in the Western world.[1] Many colorectal cancers are thought to arise from adenomatous polyps in the colon. These mushroom-like growths are usually benign, but some may develop into cancer over time. The majority of the time, the diagnosis of localized colon cancer is through colonoscopy. Therapy is usually through surgery, which in many cases is followed by chemotherapy.
