Healthcare workers are often so concerned with caring for their patients, that they neglect to care for themselves. Thank you for sharing your story ❤️

Thank you. If this post nudges even one person to book that overdue colonoscopy, FIT test, or whatever screening fits their risk profile, mission accomplished. 💙

Geçmiş olsun Hocam

So true!! I nudged my advice on an eligible loved one - and we found 13 polyps with some likely genetic tendencies. The family is now on surveillance and we can’t be more thankful!! Early detection is critical and timely screening, however uncomfortable and ‘unnecessary’ is the key to early detection.

Thanks @DrYukselUrun Sir for sharing your own story openly to us. Indeed it is an eye opener for everyone. True that screening saves life.

Ling: It was the first time I've ever been out in public and felt like I needed to find a weapon. I was looking through my bag to see what I had, and I found a sturdy handheld fan. The thought in my head was that if they came at me, I’d have to smash it over their head Orm: P’Ling is about to transform into P’Tawan Orm: I mean I saw what happened, and more or less I knew what had happened. Then P'Ling told me afterward exactly what had happened. If it hasnt happened to you personally, you really cant understand it. It was really terrifying. In all my life, I’ve never had people run straight at me like that before. It even looked like they were trying to get into her car. We didnt know whether they had weapons or not. They came as a group, too. Thats very frightening for a woman They talked about the SSFs thing 😭 you could see all the concern on Orm’s face as she listened to Ling talk about it...
