Colon Cancer: Never Too Young

Colon cancer, although considered an older man's disease, can strike anyone at any time. The hard reality: you're never too young for colon cancer. That's why we've joined with Bowel Cancer UK and the Colon Cancer Prevention Project to launch the international Never Too Young campaign, providing a platform for all people, not just those over the recommended screening age of 50, to take control of their health and their destinies.
Learn the newfound trends, hear from the people we've met and find out how you can help incite change at www.nevertooyoung.org. #never2young

I am a colon cancer survivor. I was diagnosed at 50. I hated the chemo but in the end they saved my life. There was never any history of colon cancer in my family tree so I was the first. I have alerted my children to start screening early to avoid a delayed diagnoses. It all started with a positive PSA test and everyone should start there soon.

I was 36 yo when I first dx in 2002 ...You Are Never Too Young!! Why hasn't screening guidelines by the American Cancer Society been amended ... 50+ may be too late for many people!

I am a colorectal cancer SURVIVOR!!! I was diagnosed at age 48. No family history. Was told from doctor that probably nothing to worry about I was too young and with no family history everything should be okay!!! Then the office called and wanted me to come in to "discuss" the results. Gulp. That's never a good sign. YOU HAVE RECTAL CANCER. I was told. YOUR NEVER TOO YOUNG.!!!!

Only by the Grace of God am I a 10 year survivor today. I was 37 years old when I was dx as Stage III: Are you at risk? Find out and act accordingly. Be your your own advocate, don't be afraid and GET CHECKED!@CCAlliance‪#‎never2young‬‪#‎ACS‬
