@dr.yousufzafar: Everyone needs to know that stage 4 cancer isn’t what it used to be.

Here’s why. #stage4cancer #cancertok #tiktokencyclopediacontest #oncology #creatorsearchinsights

I have stage 4 colon cancer. I’m only two months in but my team at Mayo is hoping to cure me. I know that anything can happen but I’m hopeful to be there for a while. I’m 47 with 5 kids.
