Well I'm 6 months post op and back to normal. Had my check up last week and all good, next one is Oct. How is everyone? Life had been super busy with work, holidays and general life.
I say all is well then tonight my mum has been diagnosed with early stage endometrial cancer , she's waiting for her MRI to see exactly what's going on but what are the odds of mother and daughter going through exactly the same situation 6months apart.when she rang me to tell me at 6pm tonight I was transported right back to last December when I was given my diagnosis. I've cried for England tonighttonight.
Why is life never easy

Hi nannydeb. I'm so glad that you have had your first check up and everything was found to be fine. I was sorry to hear about your mum though..the chances of that happening must have fairly low odds
especially for the same type of cancer but as some sort of comfort, if there can be any, you have got through this and are in a good position to give her advice. A big hug coming your way and you wi both be in my thoughts and prayers. Your advice you gave me helped a lot when I had my surgery and I have my first three month check up on 15 august. However it has not been without complications athey did a combination of robotic surgery and open surgery in the end, everything became infected and the wound has still not completely healed yet. I have a 5cm exuding cavity which is being packednd dressed daily and I have literally just come off the telephone to the hospital to find out whether they want it dressed and packed or undressed and unpacked at the check up. As you say life is ner easy..testing times indeed. Anyway you take good care of yourself and your mum..I hope everything goes smoothly for her. My love and prayers. God bless. Lamb . Sorry, the lamb seems to be photobombing the post again. I hope you can make sense of it....it's gone to sit on the naughty step! XX

Oh wow that's definitely unlucky and I am sorry to hear about your Mum what's the odds on that one . It must seem so surreal the only thing at least you are well prepared for what she could experience that will help her out no end but it must seem rather daunting for you too. As always don't be afraid to ask and just wanted to send you and your Mum some gentle hugs and fingers crossed for what the MRI shows.
