@angierivas1 It's reassuring your mother continues at City of Hope with her same oncologist and that she feels comfortable with him. Hopefully when she sees her oncologist they can talk together about the vaginal cream and whether or not to continue with that. Also, hoping that the City of Hope gynecologist sees your mother soon.

As I look back at my own cancer journey I also think of what I could have done differently. I wish I had gone to Mayo Clinic at the onset of the vaginal bleeding instead of the local gynecologist. But we cannot change what's already happened in the past. We can try to make our choices now and in the future based on what we've already experienced. Isn't this how you knew to get your mother to be seen right away because of your own cancer journey and that of your younger sister?
