Hi everyone, 

My mum has recently been diagnosed with stage 2

borderline 3 womb cancer and I feel so so so emotional and overwhelmed. 

Thanks Rachel x

  • Hi RachelL1234. Welcome to the community, the place nobody joins willingly. That said, u will find us a friendly n supportive bunch of folk .

    Why not join the Womb( uterus) cancer group to find other ppl similarly affected to your mum n also Family and friends for yourself.There's also an Emotional issues group and The Room, where u can just rant if u want to 

    Suggest u repost the above in the Womb cancer group as a first off . 

    U might also add a bit to your profile so u don't have to keep repeating yourself

    Fear of the unknown is the worst thing. Once we know what we're facing, we find the strength to deal with it.

    Hi

    I am really very sorry to hear about your mum. I was diagnosed with stage 3 womb cancer over five years ago and I still remember the shock of it. I thought I had fibroids. 

    The one place that really helped me through all the treatment that followed my diagnosis was the womb cancer group. The ladies there were (still are) so supportive. They know everything there is to know about surviving the different kinds of treatments (surgery, radiotherapy and chemo depending on what stage and grade the cancer is) and they are just great.
