Hello,
I had bowl cancer surgery in Nov 2022. Just heard its spread to my liver.
I'm waiting to hear whether they will be able to cut out the diseased part out. Should hear next week (22 Jan 25).
I've already done loads of research and maybe my only option will be a liver transplant, unless it can be cut out.
Without me saying anything, my son has already offered to be a live lver donar (brings me to tears to write this, what a son).
I'm luckily enough to be able to pay for this privately.
According to my research, the chances of me making it to the end of 2025 looks dim, but hopefully the NHS will have something good to say next week.
There's mounting information saying Sugar is a major cause of cancer, so I'm currently embarking on a keto diet, trying to consume less than 20 g of carbs a day.
I just checked and I actually am averaging 22.5 grams.
I haven't read anyone elses story yet, but please reply if you have anything to say

Hi SteveJ
I’d recommend putting your post in the bowel cancer group, where I see you’re already a member. There are lots of discussions there about spread to the liver and it’s a subject that comes up frequently, so you may find it helpful to reach out in that group in addition to this one to widen your audience.
