Dottie said… - Hello, 25 states have an F in colon cancer legislation. That means people under 50 have to fight to get a colonoscopy even if they are showing symptoms. This is why my diagnosis was delayed. Please read the message below.
Please read
Many states have an F in making their insurance companies pay for colon cancer screening. The docs are forced to tell people like me that I am too young. Then we go on thinking we're ok for symptoms disappear for a while then we're diagnosed with stage III or IV cancer. Please help me
Could you please sign and forward my guestbook through bulletins and email for people to sign? In the message box, type I support colon cancer laws in America. Please don't wish me a happy birthday. :) Thanks. It is to support colon cancer laws. 13,000 people under the age of 50 are being diagnosed with colon cancer every year. Around 150,000 people total are being diagnosed every year. And 56,000 people are dying from it every year. It's the 2nd leading cause of death in the country yet only 25 states support colon cancer screening for the unisured and the insured. My wish if for 1,000 to sign by my 43rd birthday on June 29th.A beginning to stop the pain and sorrow. You do not have to post your picture or email address. See if your state measures up on colorectal cancer legislation providing colonoscopies to all including people under 50. http://www. eifoundation. org/national/nccra/report_card/
Remember 13,000 people under 50 are being diagnosed with colon cancer every year. With colonoscopies being insured, we can cut this in half by early detection of polyps. Please sign my guestbook.
