We're shining a light on carepartners this month in honor of National Caregiving Month. Michele found the courage and education she needed in COLONTOWN to be a better caregiver for her Dad to where Docs would ask: Are you in medicine?! Read her story: colontown.org/michele/

As Ghislaine reminds us, "Hindsight is 100% — but you make your decisions based on what you know now and as best you can." This National Caregiver Month, we honor every carepartner doing their best in the hardest moments. You are seen. You are appreciated. You are enough.

Labs...not the kind that play fetch. The kind that make your stomach drop while you wait for numbers. In COLONTOWN, everyone knows that feeling. Some words change forever after diagnosis. In COLONTOWN, you don’t have to change them back. #COLONTOWN #WeGetIt

They research. They coordinate. They advocate. And they love. Caregivers somehow fit 32 hours of care into 24 hours of life. This month - and every day - we honor the balance they hold with grace. 💙 #NationalCaregiversMonth

Inspiration comes from lots of places, but Stage IV COLONTOWNies were pretty unanimous in what brings them hope. Whether it's an inspiring example or new clinical information, having a connected community is the source of hope for so many. #CRCAwareness #Survivors #StageIVHope

“During severe anxiety moments, focus on one thing: breathe,” says Alex. 💙 We celebrate every caregiver doing the hard work of showing up through fear, uncertainty, and exhaustion. Remember to breathe and to give yourself the same care you give others.

“Microsatellites.” To most, something orbiting Earth. To us, something shaping our treatment plan. In COLONTOWN, you don’t have to translate your cancer experience. You can just talk. #COLONTOWN #WeGetIt

Caregiving can feel non-stop, but even small moments of rest, joy, or support make a big difference. Take care of yourself so you can show up fully for your loved one. #NationalCaregiversMonth #COLONTOWN #CRC
