Simone Boseman on Chadwick's Colon Cancer Battle

0:00Welcome to Entertainment and Celebrity News Today, two minutes of pop culture that matter. Simone Bozeman recently opened up on the Today Show about her husband Chadwick's battle with Colin Cancer. He was first diagnosed with Stage 3 Colin Cancer back in 2016. The couple felt confident he beat it with surgery and chemo, seeing it as a tough, but temporary challenge. Cancer free by 2018, which she called a beautiful year, his illness sadly returned to Stage 4. It would pass away in August 2020 at just 43 years old. His symptoms hit suddenly over a few weeks, but being so young, he never even considered a colonoscopy at first. Simone explained why they kept his diagnosis private. Chadwick didn't want pity or special treatment on set. He pushed through major projects, staying active to keep his work strong, even sliding under fallen cabinets and running across fields. Awareness of Colin Cancer is growing these days, thanks to stories like his and others in Hollywood.

1:00Symptoms to watch for include changes in bowel habits, rectal bleeding, stomach pain, cramps, gas, or unexplained weight loss. These days, Simone says her grief lingers, but feels less sharp around the edges. Painful moments still come, yet she's learning to carry the weight while finding love in the memories.
