But I don't know why.
And I'll ask him, I need to ask him this actually.
I was just like, well, why did you do it?
Yeah.
What made you change your mind to do it?
He would be 65.
Right.
And he did the test and he obviously sent it away.
And then they came back and they were like, you need to come in.
And they, you know, they scanned him and everything and he'd got a two-inch diameter lump in his bowel and he'd had no symptoms whatsoever.
He told us that, you know, that he got that and that he was going to have to have an operation.
You know, I didn't know, obviously didn't know until they went in as to what they would have to do, you know, because whether it means, you know, in a colostomy bag or whatever, you know,
all the things that goes along with bowel cancer.
He'd not got any idea really.
Luckily, because they caught it early, you know, and all the stats say, you know, if there is any symptoms at all, try and get it checked out because the earlier that you can get it, the prevention is so much higher.
You know, with my dad, he had, I think he had, I think it was about a third of his bowel removed.
And that was it.
He didn't have chemo.
He didn't have any radiotherapy or anything like that.
Obviously, he had different tablets and things, and he still rattles around now on about 20 tablets a day.
