Hello! I am putting together an e-book on “Surviving Cervical Cancer”. My goal is to inspire other women with stories of those who have survived Cervical Cancer. I would love to include as many personal survivor accounts as possible. These stories will remain anonymous.

If you would like to be included in this project of mine, please discuss the following in your own words:

How did you feel when you found out you had Cervical Cancer?
What was your initial reaction?
How did you cope with this?
What symptoms did you experience?
What was your diagnosis?
What treatment was used to treat the cancer?
Were any alternative treatments used?
Discuss any choices and decisions involved in the treatment process.
What emotional aspects were involved in the treatment process?
Please add any additional information that you would like included about your personal story.

I thank you greatly for your time!

-Grace77

Hi Grace77

If you look up 'other cancers' you'll see some survivors.

Plus my link below- 'My Story'.

I will try and get together some infor and story for you, about my feelings and answer your questions

Its a fantastic idea- and would love for you to PM me more about it all.

Grace77, I was hoping that Inica would find your post and reply. One important thing she did not tell you but that you will find out if you read her story is that she is a long-term survivor of cervical cancer.

You are in my thoughts a my prayers.

Hi Inica,

Thanks for your reply. I will PM you so that we can discuss this further.

I read your story. You have been through so much! It takes a really strong person to handle it all and it sounds like you are doing a great job of it.

Hi Kat,

I too have a longggg stoy and still fighting. You can see my story in the link in my signature.

Feel free, if you wish to, to post here letting people know your story- as it might help others. And as you would know- its a sadly known, but a hush hush cancer. The more storys and experiances will help many.

Inica.
