Shell shocked to say the least. Told I had signet ring cancer in my left ovary yesterday two weeks post surgery .

Totally shocked to be given this news . Probable secondary but not sure where from. Now await lots of further tests and scans. Not sure that I will survive and not sure that my beloved husband is going to cope with all of this. No family and no children . Not sure we will get through this.
