Thank you so much for reaching out to me! I have a wonderful family but am having a hard time saying too much to them as I don't want them to worry more than they already are.

I have been reading a lot from reputable sites. My cancer is endometrioid adenocarcinoma with mucinous differentiation that metastasized to my left fallopian tube. My doctor said that this type of cancer is not typically found in the uterus so that made me nervous to start out!

I wanted to really research everything I could to be knowledgeable about my situation. The pathology report
said that there was lower uterine segment involvement and that there was necrosis focally seen in the tumor. Both of those details show a poor prognosis and decreased survival rate. I think that's why I am so nervous to start treatment!

I know I need to offer everything up to God and have complete trust in Him. Working hard on doing that because I know that faith will help me through! I also know that talking to others will help me too so thank you again!!!

So glad you have a wonderful family: that cannot be underestimated. I understand your desire not to "worry" them, but remember: they love you! You will know best how and what to talk to them about. That's why it's so important to have others (friends, therapists, etc.) to help you sort out this new reality you find yourself in. Glad you've connected with others here, too; please keep us in the loop as much as you want as you go through your treatments.
