The following was taken from Margo's blog talking about the start of her battle:
“In October of 2011 I got engaged to my best friend Derek. Everything was great we were happy living together, he was student teaching, and I had a great job. Somedays I would think about how lucky I was, and couldn’t even believe it. To me nothing could go wrong.
I have always loved kids. Ever since I was little I was a mothers helper, and a babysitter, for a couple years I was a preschool teacher. To me nothing was greater then getting to become a Mom, and I always looked forward to that in my life. One of the things that made me realize that Derek was the one for me, was how much he too loved little kids. I knew that one day he would be a great Dad, and I absoutely loved that about him.
In November were getting ready to go on the trip of a lifetime for the two of us. We were going with my work to Turks and Caicos. I was so happy it was Thanksgiving we were traveling, and with people we loved. We had such a great time on that trip, and knowing what I do now I would give anything to go back when everything was happy, and it all made sense.
A week after we came home from vacation I wasn’t feeling to well. I had some female problems for longer then I knew I should and I knew that it was time for me to call the Dr. I had been avoiding it enough, and I knew at this point all it could do is help me.
I was nervous to go to the Dr my sister had taken off the morning, and took me there, because I didnt feel comfortable driving myself. After my Dr’s appointment I didnt really think that anything very serious was wrong, I needed to have some tests run so they asked me to come Monday morning for the results.
My Mom came with me to the Dr that morning. I didnt think that anything was really wrong, but I just felt better having her with me. Sometimes I forget how old I am, and think that she needs to come to every appointment with me.
I will never forget what I thought when the Dr told me the news. The first thing that ran through my mind was ” I don’t want to die.” I had just been told that I had cervical cancer. Cancer? But I thought that it was nothing serious? How is this possible? The gynocoligist couldn’t tell us much about my cancer, all she could tell me is that I had always done everything right. But if I did everything right then why am I sitting here? The next step was I had to meet with the oncoligist at 2:00. I had just been told that I had cancer, but now I wished more then anything that I could go back to not knowing, go back to what I considered “normal”.” (Margo Mallory Ambler )
