Hi I’m Rosie, I’m a 31 year old student nurse, a crochet fanatic, dog lover and I had stage 1B1 cervical cancer with lymph involvement. I’m sharing my story here and through my facebook account https://www.facebook.com/alladventurouswomendo17 and Instagram account www.instagram.com/alladventurouswomendo17 in the hope of providing information and support to anyone else experiencing CC and as a means of sharing my journey with anyone who wants to follow it!
I was diagnosed with cervical cancer in October 2016 following an abnormal cervical screening (smear test). I have had a Lletz, a radical trachelectomy followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
I’m from Norfolk UK, which is where I had treatment although I live and study in Southampton.
Please feel free to contact me through the comments section on my blog or connect with me through my social media accounts. If you are currently going through cervical cancer or are concerned about symptoms or cervical abnormalities please check out the useful links section, particularly Jo’s cervical cancer trust https://jostrust.org.uk and if you haven’t already, make an appointment with your healthcare provider/GP.
