That looks great. Congrats on the update

I think the property name is New Farm. I don’t have any contact details

Tim, similar story. Stage 3. Month in hospital, six months chemo, still flying. Good luck, Peter.

Thanks Peter.

Hi Steve. I am only new here as well but welcome

Thanks Flightrite and you are right with that saying and I won’t let the bastard win. From when I woke after my first op I have looked at things as my second chance and I will continue to look at it like that.

Thanks Red750. The more I open up to people the more I meet people with an ostomy. I hope you are going okay now. You have some great photos.

Thanks for the welcome onetrack. I have so far come out of it okay but I do have a colostomy bag for the rest of my life, but I am okay with that. The good news is I don’t have to dig holes to have a crap when I go camping.

My symptoms were some blood and sudden urges to go to the toilet but can’t actually go. That would happen around 15 times a day. I put it down to haemorrhoids for so long. I also don’t have anyone in my family that has had bowel cancer, but it has to start somewhere.

Hi Everyone.

New here and new to aviation. I have always been interested in becoming a pilot but life has always got in the way. That is until now and I have decided to make it happen.

This year i was diagnosed with stage 3 bowel cancer the day before my 40th birthday and that has made me look at things a little different. It’s been a crap year with 2 operations so far and a month in hospital but I am alive and going to make the most of it.

I look forward to learning from here and the input from everyone.

And I will finish off with if you have any symptoms or changes please get checked. Don’t be like me and leave it a year or more before seeing the doctor.
