I have somehow been chosen to talk about my bowel cancer journey on the radio Grinning specifically , on the BBC Bristol breakfast show after 7am on August 4th . So if you are interested , tune in that morning!

Clearly, the BBC are keen to make everyone out there better tuned into the various and varied symptoms and signs that might lead to bowel cancer, since there is a very marked increase in many countries among younger people getting this cancer.

In my own case, it was a combination of seeing a little blood in my poo, with a spell where my stools became unusually narrow ,that  prompted me to mention stuff to my GP but I swear that I could just as easily have brushed it all off as nothing,as those symptoms were irregular and rarely seemed serious.

ADMIN-I hope it's ok to post this here? Obviously, during my interview I will mention the splendid role that the likes of MacMillan do in bringing people together and sharing support and knowledge.
