Hi everyone.
I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer which has spread to the cervix (grade 1 stage 2) on the 28th of November. I then had a CT scan which has shown no further spread which is a relief. I'm 48 and peri menopausal.
Things have moved very quickly since then. I have been moved to a different hospital and my operation is planned for the 30th December, in 2 days time.
I am having a total hysterectomy and sentinel node biopsy, and the bit I'm not totally sure of but I believe it was removing tissue on the wall where the womb was. I've been given so much information and must admit it's really hard to take everything in, between myself and my partner I think we just about did it.
I have really struggled this month to get myself in the mood for Christmas, I normally love it and i've felt so guilty as I feel like I've put a downer on the Xmas period for my whole family, although everyone around me disagrees.
I don't talk about my surgery or say out loud that I have cancer, I think maybe if I don't think about it it's not happening. However this morning with 2 days to go I've woken up and panic has set in and I'm finally reading all the booklets.
