I had a family friend who recently passed from colon cancer.

It was particularly brutal because it never showed up in any regular screenings, due to the tumor growing on the outside of their colon. It took ~2-3 weeks just to figure out what it was, but they only knew something was wrong because of some blood tests that came back with unusual results.

It was only 90 days from when they got the call about the unusual results till their death.
