November 2016 in Uterine/Endometrial Cancer #1

It is with great sadness that Gwen Ifill, noted political correspondent and PBS news anchor has lost her fight against uterine cancer today. Of note she never had been pregnant which is a risk factor for uterine cancer. I loved and admired her as such an amazing woman in her work and courage.

RIP Gwen. From what I've read, she was diagnosed less than a year ago. So sad. And it's probably safe to assume she got the best treatment.
