I was rather religious about my annual exams. Once I was done with them we always went on our spring holiday. So when the doctor said you can get dressed I thought, Good one more year down! But as the doctor opened the door I mentioned I sometime get a pain that would take your breath away. I only seem you once a year....go to the hospital and have an ultra sound. That was ten years ago....I thought an annual Pap Smear kept me safe...imagine my surprise to find out I was a III-c ovarian cancer patient!...I was 35 who gets ovarian cancer at that age? I haven't been able to work since....I wish I could have my old life back or at least a job that could help pay for my numerous prescriptions.
