My age was not a factor - Dannielle

A new Australian study has found the rates of bowel cancer in people under 50 continue to rise.

Dannielle was diagnosed with bowel cancer at the age of 28. Over a period of a few years she sought medical help and knew something wasn't quite right, but bowel cancer was constantly dismissed because of her age. This delay resulted in her stage 4 diagnosis.
