Where to start ...
I was on POP to stop my periods as suffered 3 weeks a month .
I was fine for years, then started having periods & was told that an odd period could happen,
But i was having them frequently more than once a month , so on Monday 2 December 24 I went into Hospital for a procedure (can't remember name of) to find out what going on,
I was in over night , on Tuesday 3 December the word was said , but need the results of one more test will seal it, the results will be in 2 weeks from the 3rd ...
I chose not to know straight away, as I knew if I was told I wouldn't be able to hold it in & wanted people to enjoy Christmas & Birthdays without worrying about me
While this going on, I find out middle December that my Dad who lives in Australia who has been living with Cancer was told he had 6 months to live, he didn't make 6 days ...
On 22 January 25 after Christmas Birthdays were done a month-ish after my Dads passing, I did find out & tell people i have Stage 3 Cervical Cancer.
With my Differing Abilities Radiotherapy didn't start till 7th April...

Hi Starber and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community, and I'm sorry to read about all the cancer in your life at the moment.
The online community is divided into different support groups so I'm going to recommend that you join the cervical cancer group, which is a great place to ask questions, share experiences and get support about the type of cancer you have, and also the bereaved family and friends group, where you can share your feelings.
To join, just click on the links I've created and, once you've joined, you can start a new post in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
It would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and proposed treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
