Shortly after gallbladder removal, Keith started getting stomach pain. His wife encouraged him to go to the ER where he got a CT scan that revealed a mass in his colon. After removing the mass and some lymph nodes, a biopsy showed Keith had stage 4 colon cancer.
As a husband and a father of two boys, Keith discusses the impact his diagnosis has had on his outlook and life and how he stopped working to prioritize time spent with his sons.
Now on his third line of treatment, Keith discusses cancer support groups, chemotherapy, treatment side effects, mental health, how he is considering a double lung transplant, the importance of being a patient advocate, and his advice for others on their own cancer journeys.
