Young Mom Shares Overlooked Symptom of Stage 4 Colon Cancer

Casandra Costley, diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer at 38, initially ignored symptoms like rectal bleeding, attributing them to hemorrhoids. Her condition worsened, leading to a diagnosis of invasive adenocarcinoma that had metastasized. Costley shares her journey on social media to raise awareness about colon cancer symptoms, especially in young people, and emphasizes the importance of early detection. Despite the challenges of chemotherapy, she finds strength in her family's support and humor, and hopes her story encourages others to seek medical advice for similar symptoms.
