Overview
- Doctors initially treated a suspected Bartholin's cyst before a 10cm tumour was found in her womb and biopsied in June 2024.
- By diagnosis, the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes and lungs, confirming stage 4 leiomyosarcoma.
- She received radiotherapy to shrink the primary mass followed by chemotherapy for lung metastases.
- She is now on palliative chemotherapy and has outlived an early prognosis of only months to live.
- She is waiting to join a Leicester research trial for a sarcoma blood test and is fundraising for LMS Research UK while urging people to check lumps and consult their GP.
