I have just been phoned by my g.p and he has just told me I am going to be fast tracked to the local hospital as I have bowel cancer. I am so scared. I am 71 years old and cared for my 87 years old wife for 5he last four years until she died in January this year. I could be strong for her, but am terrified for myself. What a wimp, but Inever let her down. My daughter tells me that I am worrying too much, but if my doctor tells me I have got cancer I am sure he is right. Roy
