The death of Chadwick Boseman, known as the Black Panther to many fans, is shining a spotlight on the travesties of colon cancer.

Pochapin, who treated Katie Couric’s late husband Jay Monahan who died at the age of 42, said tell-tale signs to look out for are blood in the stool, a change in the size or shape of stool, abdominal pain, or unexplained weight loss.
