My experience
by: Angie

I was diagnosed with stage 111, after my first child was born at the age of 27. I have been cancer free for 9 years now!! My surgeon and oncologist both told me I had had it for about 9+ years. It takes a long time to show symptoms, of which I had for about 3 years (ignoring them). I have a family history.

I don't care if you believe me or not. My mom had no symptoms when she was diagnosed terminal. She's been sick for seven years. We do have a family history.
