I had the misfortune to be diagnosed with colon cancer following the return of a testing kit received as part of the cancer screening programme. Frankly it came as a shock because I considered myself very fit and did not have any symptoms.
Within days of the result I was booked in for a full colonoscopy which identified a large growth. Barely a week after that I saw the consultant who confirmed the need for surgery. A date for the operation had already been booked together with all the various pre op tests and procedures.
I went in for surgery at the treatment centre on 2 December. Thankfully the surgery was entirely successful and as at 2 January I have been declared clear.
Since apparently you will edit out names all I can say is that every one and everything during my stay at Leighton was absolutely fantastic.
My heartfelt thanks to you all.
"Excellent Care"
