diagnosed with stage four ovarian cancer - chemotherapy starting on Friday

Hi, my name is Rita
I have been diagnosed with stage four ovarian cancer that has spread to the pelvic area and lymph nodes. My chemotherapy starts next Friday. A bit of a a scary time but trying to keep positive. Hope everyone is ok. Nice to meet you all.

  • Hi I too have stage 4 ovarian cancer. Debulking surgery done at the beginning of December with chemo started January. I have just had my 3rd treatment and 3 more to go. CT scan after that to see if any development.

    I too had my wig fitting prior to starting chemo. I tend to wear that outside the house when its not the weather for a woolly hat. Also bought some lovely soft hats with pretty coloured bands for inside.

    Wishing all the luck in the world on this horrendous journey xx
