Anne’s 2024 Mission: Get Your Rear In Gear - Milwaukee
Anne Burdge
Anne Burdge
In July, I went to the doctor with pain in my abdomen and some bowel changes. After a colonoscopy at the age of 43, I am now facing colon cancer. I had resection surgery in August to remove the tumor, and my recovery goal has been to train for this 5k.
My diagnosis is stage 3, and chemotherapy will begin shortly after the Get Your Rear in Gear walk. I’m doing this to help my community and raise awareness for others so maybe something good can come from this.
Screenings begin at 45, and this disease is hitting those younger than me every day, so awareness of symptoms and talking about it and to your doctor is important.
Please join me in supporting the Colon Cancer Coalition’s mission to reduce barriers to colorectal cancer screening and educate the public about life saving colorectal cancer screening options. Together, we can make a difference.
Did you know that colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer? Only lung cancer kills more Americans each year than colon cancer, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Regular, early screening is essential to catching this disease before it begins and in its earliest stages.
Survival rate is over 90% when caught in early stages.
By donating and sharing my page, you can directly help people that are impacted by colon cancer and help save lives.
Thank you for your support! We are stronger together.
