I was diagnosed with a MMT (uterine) in June. I've had surgery, followed by external beam and HDR brachytherapy. Right now I am feeling physically fine, but having trouble with anxiety. I know that this is a particularly aggressive cancer, and that it is so rare that there is pathetically little research available. I have entered into the "vigilant" stage of my battle, and am starting on a nutritional plan to hopefully arm my immune system to identify and destroy any lingering cells. I was sorry to hear that your mother lost her battle, but would be glad to make contact with others who are still in the fight. I think we can be good support for each other.
