Rejected petition Rebecca's cervical cancer fight
More details
My wife Rebecca, now 26 was diagnosed with cervical cancer when she was 25 on her 1st smear. We were married in June 2013 and she was told in July 2013 she had cancer, we have a 7year old son.
After going to the doctors over a period of a few years with vaginal bleeding they blamed it on her contraception and and her weight loss as she want down to 7st.
When we found out they said it had been there for around 4 years and it had spread from the cervics to here Virginia walls and lymph nodes and pelvic area.
After intense chemo and radiotherapy 5 days a week for 8 weeks she has been very lucky and pulled through but is still very poorly.
So please help us take the fight to the government to get the age of smear tests down to the age of 16/17.
Everyone in the country needs to sign every petition going for this to get the government to stand up and take notice now!!!!
