Hi, my name is April, I am 32 and was diagnosed with cervical cancer when I was 21. Had bioposies done and came back stage 4. Had laser surgery done and so far things are okay. This was all done in about 3 weeks time. Nothing showed up when I had a pap about a month or so before my son was born but after the 6 week checkup things really went downhill. I was terrified!! Doctor told me not to have any more kids, but my husband and I wanted one more so 4 yours later she was born. Hope everyone is doing okay. If anyone needs to talk, I'm here to listen.

    Hey, I'm a tarheel girl, too. I'm 27 and was diagnosed about seven months ago. I had a cone in Nov. and a hysterectomy in Dec.

    I'm glad you have children! All those years I spent thinking that the worst thing in the world would be to get pregnant...Now here I am. Hope you're doing okay now!
