Stage 3C Colon Cancer





We found out tonight that Mathew has stage 3 C cancer...
8 of the 16 lymph nodes tested positive......
The survival rate for 3C colon cancer is approx 44%....
They think it has not spread to other organs thank goodness...
Looks like he could have had this cancer for about 2 years...
He is doing much better today and hope that after 6 months of chemo we will be able to celebrate him being cancer free....
He will begin chemo in about 3 weeks.....
Thank you again for your support...Maxine
