Craig Jenner, business owner and father of three is dedicating himself to raising awareness about the importance of screening and raising funds to support Bowel Cancer awareness.<\/p>
Bowel cancer claims the life of over 100 Australians a week. But in seniors, it remains one of the most preventable cancers if detected early enough.<\/p>
Although his father had bowel cancer, Craig didn\u2019t realise it put him at an increased risk.<\/p>
At the age of 45 Craig was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer. Following surgery, he underwent six months of chemotherapy, but the cancer returned six years later and has now spread.<\/p>
\u201cBowel cancer is a silent killer. Put yourself first. Get checked,\u201d said Craig.<\/p>
Because bowel cancer often develops without any warning signs, screening can help reduce its incidence by detecting blood in the stool, which could indicate a precancerous lesion or existing cancer.<\/p>
