Recent diagnosis

Hi, I'm Ruby. I'm 52 and very recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer stage 1b

i will have a full hysterectomy and lymph nodes removed.

Then radiotherapy after I've healed. 
So very nervous and a bit scared.

I have tried to stay happy and me and my daughters laugh a lot.

would love to chat to others
