I have hesitated over and over again about writing this.  However, I have decided to post this message because I think that I would have liked to read this when my husband and I first started our 'cancer' journey. He was initially diagnosed with colon cancer, but had a sigmoidoscopy during which they removed the cancerous growth.  This was Nov 2022.  In a follow up scan, which showed that the colon growth had been successfully removed, they then found he had a growth in his right lung, which after a few procedures turned out to be small cell lung cancer [sclc].  This was 14 Feb 2023 [my birthday] when we learned it was lung cancer. After chemo and radiotherapy on the lung cancer - with various problematic side effects from that - we arrived at our oncology specialist follow up meeting last Wednesday.  The growth has stabilised and the brain scans they did showed there was no metastases to the brain - unfortunately a very common follow on from sclc.  Then today [actually yesterday Sun] after another sigmoidoscopy he was told that the colon cancer removal was also all OK.  So within 4 days he has been told that his lung cancer has stabilised and the colon cancer has been removed.  I feel so unbelievably deleriously happy about this.  I just want to tell people on this forum that the medicine/treatment can and does work.  Never give up believing.  I love you all.
