🩺 Got a FIT Kit ? Don’t Ignore It!
A FIT Kit is a simple test you can do at home. It checks your stool for tiny amounts of blood. This can be an early sign of colon cancer.

The test is quick, easy, and not painful.
Colon cancer often has no signs at first, so this test can help find problems early.

📬 If your doctor gave you a FIT Kit, please do the test and mail it back soon. It only takes a few minutes, but it could help protect your health.
