    Amber, I hope you will find someone to talk to, because your situation is a pretty heavy one for your age. I suggest face-to-face support groups because I know there are many people who do not access the internet; one of the youngest members of my group was diagnosed in her early 20's (and is still is in her 20's), but I know she does not use the internet, and has never seen this site. I was reluctant to go the first time because I really was afraid what I might find. I spent some time in the chat room here, and received encouragement that gave me the confidence to go. It has been a very good resource for me.

    Hi amber, my mother has been diagnosed with stage iv uterine cancer that has metasised to the lungs. I am sorry to hear about your news, but hopefully there are things that can be done. I live in New York, but my mom is actually in australia. How are your chemo treatments going? Did they put you on Epirubicin for chemo? My mom had to have surgery to remove the primary, but now the battle is against the metastis in the lungs. this can be beaten! be positive. walter.
