Any progress @Snowy ?
-
My wife had an abnormal result on a smear test. Got the dreaded call from the doctor instead of a text.
A closer look shows she has a lesion on her cervix that has 'high grade cell changes', which are pre-cancerous. She will need part of her cervix removed to get rid of it, and then regular tests to confirm they are all gone.
While the whole thing has been stressful, we are both incredibly grateful that it was picked up before it developed further. Cancer really is a fucking bitch.
If any ladies read this (including the hot Polish chicks), get your smears, they are genuine life savers.

@no-quarter Jesus, glad to hear your picked it up relatively early but still all the best as I’m sure it’s still not easy
-
@no-quarter same sentiments as @Kiwiwomble - great that it was caught early. Cancer really is a cast iron fucker aye. All the best as the missus gets treatment. Echo the call to get checked out.
-
@no-quarter so sorry to hear this!! You are right, this is why smears are so important. Wishing you both all the best.

@no-quarter so stink mate

Obviously horribly stressful news and so sorry you have to experience that, but great they caught it in time. Hope she has a speedy recovery and you guys can get on with your lives.

@no-quarter Not great news mate, but this isn't that uncommon. My wife had exactly the same thing a few years ago and has had no lasting repercussions. Last smear was around a month ago and she continues to have the all clear.

Thanks mate, we are definitely of the outlook that this is good news rather than bad as we appear to have caught it before it could develop. Feeling really grateful overall that she got the test, and that we live in a country where we can easily get the required treatment.
@MajorRage thanks for sharing, the doctor was saying the same thing - the procedure is low risk and then it's just a matter of more regular tests to confirm we are clear.
Things like this do affect your outlook on life a bit though. You just never know what is around the corner.

@no-quarter Wife had a scare about a year ago. Similar thing, but she is fine, no operation. It frightens the shit out of you though.
Hope that it is all O.K.
I've had enough of cancer and @tim is working on fixing the fucker so it will all be fine I'm sure.

Looks like my sister's black Lab is heading to the other side in the next week or two. They will do the right thing by her but fuck those decisions are hard.
I think that she is 18. Incredible for a big dog and one of the most loved animals on the planet. If she were a human a cathedral would be full for her funeral.

@snowy i dread the day our cats get that way, i love those little monsters and its hard enough not being able to explain what going on when just having vet procedures let along the big one
It's a part of having them, and it sucks. The joy of having them around, with the sorrow of knowing the end. The day I started one of our businesses was the day I had our ginger tom (a cat) put down. I think about him every day, the little bugger. Amazing how they get into your head.

Wife finally lost it, busted knee stuff and the time I’ve been spending at rugby, my selfishness ruined all the plans she had for the last few months apparently and then me wanting to go watch the team play or do management stuff at training was too much
I have been a bit selfish, forgot her brother was coming to stay when I planned to go to training, I was just enjoying it, everyone’s happy to see ya up and walking etc
I’m sure she’ll calm down and say I should carry on or something but now I’ll always know she resents me going
Pretty down as had really enjoyed making new mates etc
-
Lost a family member to cervical cancer after she ignored the signs, so really great news it was picked up quickly.
Wish her good luck for the op.

They do indeed. We still compare our two cats with our ginger Queen who we saw off into juicy- mouse paradise 4 years ago. She was something special and we scattered her ashes over her favourite hunting patch and drank a toast to her.
-
She probably doesn’t resent you going per se, just that she resented you going during a certain time. Hope so anyway mate, rotten to give up something that gives you pleasure.
