When we get that diagnosis, this is often one of the first questions that comes up- is it my fault that this has happened? Have I caused it in some way?
This is a topic I feel really strongly about as I think it’s all to easy to beat ourselves up over perceived mistakes we’ve made or ‘unhealthy’ choices we may have made in our lives.
Have a listen to hear my thoughts on this - exactly one year after my bowel resection operation to remove the tumour and 7 months after finishing active treatment and being given the ‘all clear.’ This time a year ago, I was in a lot of pain… right now, I’m honouring the day that my surgeon was able to remove it all and set me on the road to recovery.
