@goldengirl2 you mention "Some provinces use it but others don't." Am I to understand that you live in Canada?

I read in the abstract of this 2014 study that "vaginal cuff brachytherapy is also of potential benefit in USC" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3984476/
Is brachytherapy the type of radiation being suggested for you?

Yes I live in British Columbia. They are suggesting WART and along the paa aortic lymph nodes, not brachytherapy. I just finished my last chemo and this may be the next step in January. Adjuvant , like the chemo. I will read the article thank you so much. Knowledge is powere I am finding out the hard way through this whole process of advocating for yourself...
