Important to all women...

This is kind of personal, but useful, helpful, important information
When I went to my 6 week check up I was called about a week later and told that I had an abnormal pap smear. I was like okay. I did not think anything of it and then the nurse told me all about a procedure that my Dr. wanted to do called a Colposcopy (no not a colonoscopy) and take a biopsy. So I went to do that and I have a really good Dr. so he was able to tell that it was not cervical cancer. He told me that I was very lucky because I was 1 step away from cervical cancer. He told me that I needed to have a LEEP done. (This is a procedure that the Dr. shaves off the cancerous cells. It is no where as bad as what it sounds) I went to have the LEEP and then I went for my follow up appointment 4 months later and I had no signs. I have a very very good Dr. who I knew when I was a child going to his church. (he is not old, he is only in his late 30's early 40's) He is a very good Dr and a Christian man. He told me to keep going to my appointments no matter what, he was not worried about the financial part. The important part of this is I am only 26 years old and he told me that I was a step away from cervical cancer. So all my gal pals out there and every other woman who reads this spread the word! Anyone could get this, anyone could have this same problem and not even know. I believe my baby saved my life, I would not have went to the Dr. (OB/Gyn) if I had not been pregnant. He is my little life saver. I would have had cancer and who knows what before I went to the Dr. I had no signs, no problems, no reason to think that I had this. Everyone spread the word to your sisters, mothers, aunts, cousins, daughters, friends, grandmothers- to everyone. To me this is like a silent killer. I found out that a girl I know passed away in May from this. She had it so bad that it spread to uterus and intestines and she died. She was only 25! She had a 1 or 2 year old son and that is when she found out that she had cervical cancer. I am lucky to have caught this in time because I need to be here for my babies to take care of them and see them grow and go to Kindergarten, graduate from college, get married and to make me a grandmother. Please everyone pay attention and see about yourselves. This is really important.
