In May of 2020, at 30 years old, in the midst of COVID, I was diagnosed with Stage IV colorectal cancer. I don’t have a family history and many of my symptoms had been disregarded for years due to pregnancy and postpartum. I began chemotherapy in June and had treatment every two weeks for 7 months. I am currently recovering from major surgery to resect my primary tumor and lesions on my liver. This will be followed by more chemo.
