Cheryl’s Story:
In July 2023 health issues showed up that led to further testing and a diagnosis of stage three clear-cell carcinoma uterine cancer. On July 31 Cheryl underwent an open hysterectomy with a lymph node removal due to spread of the cancer. Cheryl will begin chemotherapy (two drugs) and immunotherapy in 1-2 weeks. The plan is for six rounds of chemo along with the immunotherapy for up to two years. She will also have a PET scan in the near future.
Cheryl has worked as an in home daycare provider for over 37 years- which was always her childhood dream. She loves kids and has cared for too many to count She is currently unable to work as she goes through treatment.
