Yesterday I took my wife for pre booked tests at the hospital. And after having an Endoscopy and Colonoscopy the Doctors discovered my wife has Bowel Cancer.
At the moment we are just numb and trying to get our heads round it, Donna is a woman who has never smoked or drank to excess (the odd glass of wine) and teaches PE at school. So she has always been fit and healthy. And in ten years has only been off work twice due to illness it just makes no sense.
We have now told all the family which has been very hard on everyone. This woman is my rock for over 22 years we have only ever been apart 3 times in all those years. I find myself having to be the strong one telling everyone its alright mum will be fine, while cracking jokes and keeping a smile on my face when in reality I just want to scream. 
It is now a waiting game for more tests and the results from the Biopsy. We have a full body CT scan booked for the 4th of next month to see if it has spread and only after those results will the Doctors decide the next step.
I do not claim to be a religeous man but I prayed for the first time in a lot of years. Not for me but for my wife who is the most wonderfull kind and gentle woman you could ever wish to meet.
I only post this to remind everyone, hug the special people in your life , tell them you love them today. Because you never know what tomorrow brings.
Wishing everyone the best

Sorry to hear this mate.
My wife is near the end of her treatments now and all I can say is stay strong and be there for her when she needs it.
The treatments aren't pleasant and the overall experience is very unpleasant,  which in turn affects emotions and mental well being. 
If you need any advice or just someone to talk to then give me a shout.
In the meantime my thoughts and positive vibes are with you

Sorry to hear this. Prayers for your wife, you and your family. You're so right if you love someone tell them.

Sorry for you Baldie and your family.
Cancer is bad but remember it could hit everyone at every age .
all my thaughts for you and your wife...
Stay strong and positive it helps..

I'm so sorry to head Baldie, praying for you both and sending hugs and love your way. 

Please take care of her and tell her that a bunch of idiots would like to hug her.

So sorry to hear this @baldie.  Positive vibes coming your way!

Mate so sorry to hear your news.... Thinking of you both..........

Sorry to hear this baldie, positive thoughts for you and your family.
