As April is bowel cancer awareness month we are delighted to have a bonus episode for our listeners. We are joined by Carmel Drohan who was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer in 2015 and she talks us through her experience to date. Carmel has had multiple surgerys and chemotherapy treatments and we are extremely grateful to her for sharing her story with us. We are also joined by her friend and well known surgeon Professor Ann Brannigan who walks us through what bowel cancer is and how it may present, advancments in bowel cancer treatments, and the important role of the multidisciplinary team plays in deciding individual treatment plans for patients.

We hope you enjoy this episode.
