Daryl's Battle with Intestinal Cancer - Teaser
In 2021, Daryl asked his doctor to perform a colonoscopy. He knew he was younger than most routine colonoscopy patients, but because of his family history of gastrointestinal cancer, he wanted to be careful.
During the procedure, the doctor found an unusual mass in Daryl’s terminal ileum, which is the last segment of the small intestine before it turns into the colon. She performed a biopsy on the mass and sent it to the lab. The results came back three days before his wedding -- the mass they had found was cancer.
Daryl went on to have surgery to remove the tumor. In addition to the diseased part of his small intestine, his doctors also removed lymph nodes, his appendix, and some of his colon. These tissues were all tested by the clinical laboratory team.

    I am 34 years old. I was diagnosed Aplastic Anaemia in 2020, when I was 30. As I am only child to my parents and due to non availability of donor, Dr planned for ATG. But count didn't improved even after that. Today, I can see that I will die soon in next coming years. Life is beautiful. Don't waste it. Very few gets this opportunity of rebirth. God chose you.❤ Love from India. God bless you. Stay healthy.

    This is a powerful testimony…🥹 and such a beautiful story shared by two resilient individuals. Moreover, we need laboratory scientists in every corner of America 🇺🇸. Preventive care saves lives and this young man is an amazing testament as to why these professionals are so desperately needed. Critical life-changing decisions shouldn’t be determined by a single physician. Period. Well done.
