My Uterine Cancer Journey Decided No Chemo/Radiation

@danae25 I noticed that you've been a member of Mayo Clinic Connect since 2025 but I think this might be the first time you've posted in this support group.
Your story of what begin more than 5 years and then to date is so concerning. I've been told over and over again that vaginal bleeding post-menopausal is not considered to be normal and should be thoroughly checked out.
I'm sad to think you and your sister are going through this at the same time. I would expect that you can support one another but honestly no one wants their closest relatives to go through this.
I'm sending you positive energy that this cancer will not be with you and your sister forever. It's taken me a long time to get to the point where I keep going to my cancer surveillance appointments, learn that I'm NED (no evidence of disease) and can go back to living my life.
Keep coming back to our support group and we will be by your side.
When is your next appointment?

@naturegirl5 My story is a warning not to wait on getting these things thoroughly checked out. My sister has been fortunate. The hysterectomy was much easier than our mother's hysterectomy some 50+ years ago and her prognosis is good. Mine has just been more complicated. It actually was nice to have someone else understand what you were going through without having to explain and I think she felt the same. I could support her in a way her husband and children couldn't. Thank you for your positive energy. My next infusion is August 25th. Feeling stronger today than yesterday. And yes, I bought that wig that I swore I never would. Better haircut than the one I have now.
