[quote=Anonymous]Hi everyone. Coco's story sounds quite similar to mine. I was diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer at age 35 last year, two years postpartum. Now NED after chemo and surgery, thank God! The odds of recurrence are frighteningly high, but I try not to dwell on that and just enjoy every moment with my daughter. And it surprises me how many other young women I have met (mostly online, though several are local) with stories like mine, diagnosed with colon cancer within a couple of years after a pregnancy and not fitting any of the typical risk factors in terms of age, family history, diet, etc. There's no evidence that colon cancer is hormone-driven, but it does make me wonder if there is a subset of cases where that is a factor...
