Cervical Cancer

Hello -

I was diagnosed with stage 2A cervical cancer 3 years ago.  I had 26 rounds of external and 6 rounds of internal radiation along with chemo.  Due to a bleeding event prior to my diagnosis I was not able to have surgery. I know how scary a diagnosis can be, the treatments,waiting for results,  the recovery.  If anyone would like to ask me questions about my experiences, please do so. Obviously everyone's cancer is different and only doctor can give medical advice,  but sometimes it helps to talk to someone who's been through it.

Prayers to all that are facing this disease.

  • Hi Laura am just knew on here iv just read Al you went through and  I must say you are a strong women. Hope you are well 

  • Hi K,

    I am doing well, thank you! But I didn't (and still don't) always feel strong but I have strong faith and that helps me. And, this website has helped me many times over the years. It is so important to follow up on your appointments and conquer medical anxieties (which I still have, but it is easier to overcome). After going through what I did in my cancer journey I want to make sure people know that you can get through it! It is scary and sometimes rough, but you can do it if you have to. One day, one appointment, one scan, one test result at a time. Don't google anything.  I hope you will feel free to reach out if you have questions I might be able to answer.

    Laura xx
