I Almost Skipped a Routine Colonoscopy and It Nearly Cost Me Everything — Jennifer Kyle (Video)

March is colorectal cancer awareness month—a time to spotlight the increased risk people with CF and CF carriers face when it comes to developing colon cancer. In this podcast, Jennifer Kyle, an adult with CF, shares the moment she learned that malignant polyps had been found in her colon after finally undergoing a routine screening. Urging others to speak with their care teams and get screened early, Jennifer highlights that colonoscopies aren't just boxes to check on a list but are life-saving diagnostic tools.
