Hello, I got diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer with 7 tumors at the age of 28 and I am 32 now but I went through 4 surgerys and chemo radiation and the cancer still came back so I had a pelvic exenteration and the outcome of it was having to wear a colostomy bag and a urostomy bag the rest of my life. It's been 2 years and I still haven't been able to cope with it my bf/baby dad after 8 years of being together when I got cancer he kinda was slipping away and now that I have to wear these bags he barley touches me kisses me he's barley home anymore.. he doesn't want me now after all we been through he doesn't want me because of these 2 bags I have to wear the rest of my life. I don't think I will ever find love again

    Brittboyd743, I am a visitor from the Uterine/Endometrial cancer board but I wanted to post to send you virtual hugs.

    I can't imagine what you are going through, but it sounds very difficult. If you haven't, maybe you can find someone to talk to because it is a lot to wrap your head around - I think anyone would honestly!

    I know it helps to get it out, and sometimes a page like this can help, but it is so quite and it would help to find someone who has experienced the same thing.

    There is another site called SHARE that may be a little more active.
