My fight with colon cancer; part 1.

My name is Seth. I'm 50 years old, healthy, exercise, try and eat well, occasionally overdo the booze and I recently got diagnosed with colon cancer.
A friend of mine and the nurse suggested I do a journal. I'm pretty open about what goes on with me and thought maybe someone out there could benefit from my story.
I plan to create a vlog of sorts to explain how I found out that I have cancer, my surgery, my prognosis, and whatever else may come.
I start chemotherapy shortly and am pretty anxious about it. I hear a wide variety of stories from everyone. I just don't know what to believe. I hope that this journal can be cathartic for me and potentially even help someone else.
This experience changed my whole life. As a combat veteran, I faced death on multiple occasions, never in slow motion.
If people watch this and pose questions I'll do my best to answer them.
