PERMANENT colostomy at 29!? BIG colorectal cancer operation coming
PERMANENT colostomy at 29!? HUGE colorectal cancer operation coming
Malin & Tom
Malin's made a huge decision to keep her colostomy bag. Choosing to have a permanent colostomy at such a young age was a huge decision for her, but after careful consideration she's decided that it's the best choice. She was given a temporary colostomy after being taken in for an emergency cancer surgery a couple of weeks ago, to fix an urgent issue with a blockage in her large intestine caused by the remnants of a colorectal cancer tumour.
After meeting with a head surgeon, she has considered how her quality of life will be different with a permanent colostomy bag, and decided that it's by far the best decision, rather than them attempting to reconnect her colon.
Malin was diagnosed with an aggressive colorectal cancer at just age 29, and has since been on a long journey to getting rid of it. She has had a full cycle of radiation therapy, as well as 4 rounds of chemotherapy, and next week she is scheduled for a huge cancer operation to remove what's left of the tumour. They are also removing Malin's uterus, fallopian tubes, and other bits around where the tumour has been.

Who are we?
——————
We are a young 'Swenglish' adventure family, that consists of Swedish Malin, English Tom, and babies Charlie & Isabella, who are half and half. We love all kinds of adventures, including travelling around Sweden and beyond in our little budget family campervan, and we're currently building our dream campervan project.
But right now we’re focused on one thing: to be free of cancer. We've been on the journey to recover since Malin received her colorectal cancer diagnosis in late 2022.
