    I would like to share my experience with my daughter who was an extremely healthy and active person until she was unexpectedly diagnosed with colon cancer at age 25 and then passed away at age 31 when it eventually returned to her upper esophagus and greatly in her lungs...as her mom, I feel that I have much to share about what I learned and what types of support my daughter had when going through this experience...I especially would like to share with young adults of my daughter's age about how she recovered and got back to her old self and then had to deal with the cancer returning...
