I have a good fiend who's father died way too young. The doctor said that people are genetically predisposed to having a gene that causes colon cancer. He has 4 brothers, 3 of which have that gene including him, one of who had a couple of feet of his colon removed already. My friend has to get a colonoscopy twice a year.
Good luck brother.
