I chose to post on this site as I have a more rare form of colon cancer. As an anal cancer survivor, I want to be able to communicate and and hopefully educate newly diagnosed anal cancer patients.

If you would like to learn more about me, I have a personal page at http://kathybienapfl.blogspot.com My personal blog will lead you through my journey from new diagnosis and treatment to my current experience.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding my diagnosis or treatment.

Best of luck to you and your journey.
