hey there, I just read your story and i just want to tell you everything will be fine. I was diagonosed with invasive cervical cancer in September of 2007. I am 31 years old and had never had children. My story is posted under the title denial. I have been through external and internal radiation along with chemotherapy. My oncologist wanted to perform a hysterectomy but in my case the tumor had spread to my lymph nodes. I was very afraid at first. I just want you to know i would always tell myself that positive thinking gets positive results. I also believe faith plays a big part in life. I had my first scan a week ago and everything was clear. I will have to get scans every three months for about two years. I would like to know what your doctor has told you and my prayers are with you. God Bless
