Endometrial Cancer | Clare's Story | Stand Up To Cancer
Clare found out she had a rare cancer, endometrial cancer, in her womb. Endometrial Cancer is a type of cancer found in the lining of the uterus or womb, due to the abnormal growth of cells that can spread and rise to other parts of the body.
'I'm angry at the cancer, for ruining everything, every dream I've ever had.'
Diagnosed in August 2013 at age 32, Clare had to go through Brachytherapy (internal radiotherapy), where they put a radio active rod in the vagina and she wasn't able to move for the 19 hour session.
All the women in Clare's family have gone through either breast or bowel cancer, which is led to Clare having some more tests to see if there are any signs.
1 in 2 people in the UK will get cancer during their life time. Every pound you give helps speed up life-saving cancer research, bringing treatments to people who need them, faster.
