Hi ketsy
Welcome to support groups hon. I can understand about how scared you are.
My daughter got cervical cancer at 30 years old. I myself have Lymphoma.
You have every right to be scared but you did not share much about your story like where you are in treatment, just beginning? havnt started? what stage are you? whats your onc telling you.

people will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel...God Bless

hi Ketsy i was diagnosed with cervical cancer in september of 2007. i was 46 years old. it is scary! i went in for a radical hysterectomy, but the cancer had spread to my uterus~so the dr ended up leaving everything. he removed 25 lymph nodes & found cancer in one of those. i then underwent chemo &radiation & brachytherapy! i am now coming up on 4 years since my diagnosis & am doing well! stay strong! you can do this! if you have any questions, feel free to ask me! all my best renee

I just got diagnosed with cervical cancer and they also found a tumor in my uterus. Getting radical hysterectomy in a few days. I don't know exactly what's going on, they are just rushing me through everything.

If you see any of my other posts you will see I'm dealing with a husband who is addicted to porn and every other woman BUT me, I'm an alcoholic, was molested as a child, went through several abusive relationships and have serious doubts about everything right now. My self esteem is completely shot to hell. And alcohol is looking better and better everyday. Now I will feel even less attractive or like a woman. Are there any support groups for people who are generally screwed in almost every aspect of life? {Haha}
