My grandmother had piles from her teenage. Whenever the problem occurred, she suffered from acute pain in the rectum, and blood came out while defecating. About two years ago, one day, she told me that she was suffering from constipation. We tried some home remedies to loosen her stool. My father started giving her the medicine for piles because he thought it was a symptom of her piles. This time, those didn’t work. She noticed dark maroon blood in the stool. Gradually she became weak and had a sharp pain in her abdomen area. So, we took her to our home physician without wasting time, and he gave some tests that included colonoscopy. My father took my grandmother to a nearby diagnostic center and got all tests done. She was diagnosed with an early stage of rectal cancer. We made an appointment with the best rectal cancer doctor in Kolkata and visited there the next day. After going through all the previous reports, the doctor said that her type 2 diabetes could be a reason behind her colorectal cancer. The doctor advised her to go for surgery; otherwise, cancer would spread elsewhere. We were a bit worried about going for surgery because of my grandmother’s age. So, we talked to the doctor about it; he explained everything to us. He said that my grandmother’s cancer was yet to spread and affect other organs so, that was the right time to remove cancer, and he also advised her to go for chemotherapy after the operation so that cancer would not come back. The operation was successful. After that, we took her for sessions of chemotherapyin Kolkata. Now, she is completely cured and leading a healthy life.
