Endometrial Cancer | Clare's Story | Stand Up To Cancer

- Clare found out she had a rare cancer, endometrial cancer, in her womb. Endometrial Cancer is a type of cancer found in the lining of the uterus or womb, due to the abnormal growth of cells that can spread and rise to other parts of the body.
'I'm angry at the cancer, for ruining everything, every dream I've ever had.'
Diagnosed in August 2013 at age 32, Clare had to go through Brachytherapy (internal radiotherapy), where they put a radio active rod in the vagina and she wasn't able to move for the 19 hour session.
All the women in Clare's family have gone through either breast or bowel cancer, which is led to Clare having some more tests to see if there are any signs.

I’m researching about endometrial cancer. This is the first day I found out I have endometrial Cancer. I’m still crying. I haven’t told my family yet. My husband is here supporting me. Theres a lot to take in.
I hear you., I wish you full recovery. xxxx I am waiting on results of the ctscan I had a week ago. Seeing my doctor Friday. I am demanding an hysterectomy. At 65 don't need my uterus. I do need to live. This is scary shit.
I’m only 34, no kids yet. So I’m hoping for recovery and hopefully when I’m cancer free, we will do IVF. Long process to go but I’m hoping. If not it’s ok. My husband and I accepted it❤ we will be fine. Enjoy our life. Travel when we can and always be nice🙏🤞
I was diagnosed last month. 25 days radiotherapy will start next week. Praying for everyone going through this as well. We can do this!
Id lvoe to know how your doing now 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼

I had a total hystrectomy, they got some of the cancer but not all of it, I have stage 4 endemetrial uterine cancer, got to have chemo and radiation treatments now, I am 56yrs old, I am going to be strong and Pray and have Faith that God and Jesus Christ will work through my chemo and radiation treatments so I will be cancer free, I am going to be strong and hold my head high through this journey. Pray Dear and have Faith.
What where ur symptoms
🙏for you!
My sister was diagnosed with endometrial cancer yesterday and she is devastated. It is with the size of an egg and the doctor told her that her prognosis is not very optimistic. She is scheduled for surgery in ten days. Can you tell us how things are going with your treatment and how big was your tumor? I will pray for you and my sister’s healing!
🙏🤗💐
@@jamesgrant3812 Usually the symptom is ANY bleeding/discharge in a post menopausal woman. In younger women it is bleeding when it is NOT the regular time of month. I was also extremely tired/fatigued. This fatigue persisted even with normal amount of sleep plus naps!
My mother is 51 years old and we found out last month that she is diagnosed with stage 3 endometrial cancer. Our doctor suggested that we immediately do hysterectomy. While doing sugery doctor said that he had to abandon the surgery because her uterus and intestine were frozen together and it would put her life in danger if we continue.
Alot of emotions trafficked my mind that I lost my spirit. Like, I m 25 years old and is the only child, she is my everything, my beautiful sunshine and could not live a second without her in this world.
We then consult doctor and he said that it is a slow growing cancer and it can be control with a session of 25 radiations and 4 chemotherapy.
Now it's my mother's 7th radiation today. She is alright looks the same doing fine. Tomorrow is going to be a big day it's her 1st chemotherapy.
Please pray for my mother to win this battle and speedily recovers. And also do pray for all the other wome who are suffering from this cancer. May all be blessed by Jesus, Amen.
Praying all is well for you and your Mom love! Sending thoughts and prayers to you right now! 💕
God bless u i hope blessings will come all your families way im so scared i have a solid lesion in cerxix it was 1.5 cm not its 2.2 so to me it must be growing im to. Go in for a procedure to see what's wrong am terrified its cancer i had a scan done i read it and it said i have a differential diagnosis between edeometrial cancer and fibroid
Maria we all going to be tested. Just keep your faith in Jesus and be strong for your mother.Praying for everyone including myself who's affected by this horrible disease. Let us all continued to pray and believe Jesus for our healing. God can heal all diseases. Just Believe
We are praying
Praying for your mother, you and ever woman suffering from this kind of cancer. Keep Your Faith
You can still be a mom. There are millions of babies that need a loving home. You don't have to birth to be mom. Don't give up on that dream. Children are a blessing and you would be a blessing to a child in need of parents.
Clare is a young lady that I have got to know over recent months as we both had a womb cancer diagnosis. She is an amazing young lady and extremely genuine and caring. She is doing what she can to raise awareness of this cancer whilst fighting her own battle and I am so proud of her. xx
Hi how is Claire doing today I hope she is well and is living her life to the full

I’ve learned that being a mother is so much more than birthing a baby. She will be a mother in her life. She is so loving and has so much to give. She has the heart of a mother and children will be in her life in the way God h has planned for her. “ I have loved you with an everlasting love”. For I know the plans I have for you. Plans to prosper you and give you a hope and a future.”
I pray for everyone on here, God bless everyone. You are all so strong and brave. Wish you all well and positvity. ❤
Lord Jesus Christ i pray for all people suffering from Cancer and other illnesses. Please give us complete healing oh Lord God. In Jesus Christ i pray AMEN🙏❤
Amen, I had it in January , it has completely scared me and my mental health is really bad in fear of it coming back .
My mum is gonna win this battle!❤️
My life.. my heart was broken..when I had to get a total hysterectomy...never becoming a mom at such an young age.. but I thank God for life
She seems like a lovely gentle soul ❤️
I was diagnosed early with endometrial hyperplasia with atypia at 37 and years fighting with numerous treatments to be diagnosed with breast cancer later. Very exhausting but in remission now for almost 10 years. But my mental health is still ongoing.
So brave, I'm going through the same, and it's horrid not having the choice to have kids, but I thankyou for your positive way of thinking
This made me cry. Such a remarkable young woman. Anyone have a update on how she's doing now?
I lost my aunt to uterine cancer last year. She was 65 years old. She suffered so much in her final moments. It ate away at her. The last few weeks she weighed so little, she didn’t eat or drink anything. She would yell out in pain and no one could do anything except give her morphine which wasn’t enough. Her cancer wasn’t found until it had spread, which is why her death was so terrible. It’s such a horrible disease.
I'm so sorry you saw your aunt like this cancer is such a cruel disease and a painful death from what I've seen.
I am so sorry for your loss. 💐
I am so sorry💔
My mom has uterine cancer and she has large lymph nodes that are too big for surgery, so they are trying to shrink them with chemo. Her cancer has spread.
She is lucky she has people who are supporting her. I am going through endometriosis pain daily and im at risk of having cancer in future. My parents are not even a bit supportive at all only my husband supports me and my grandma is always worried about me its killing my brain. its really hard to fight with this stuff. Clare hats off to you you are so strong! God bless you and help you heal!
Prabz Kaur I’m sorry 💚
Consider changing what you eat. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Starches should be potato, rice, barley, etc. Eat beans too. Try to not eat animal products or processed foods. Drink green tea. Eat a serving of tofu/soya paneer daily or drink glass of soy milk. Quit using sugar. Walk daily for 30 minutes. Reduce weight to normal. This is what the doctor told me is good for prevention and to avoid cancer coming back.
Lucky you have a husband... everyone has family or people that dont get it.. to have one or 2 is better than non. You come in alone so fight on your own too.. take care x
Good luck on your journey hun xx
My daughter was just diagnosed with uterine cancer last Thursday. Trying to be strong for her. Inside I'm a mess. Can only imagine what she is going through.
The only sign that I had was that after I had my son my periods were different. I had more clotting and I just thought it was because I had a baby. Well, I was wrong and the doctor's were also wrong 4 times. They don't call it the silent killer for nothing. I was really, really lucky.
I pray for all woman who've had their lives turned upside down due to cancer. I Pray for all of us and our families . Hearing the word Cancer is emotionally paralyzing .I am so confused. Which poison do I take? I am so afraid,I got a family. I am hurting,and I know others are too. I pray for us.
I lost my mum to an aggressive form of womb cancer in 2018 6wks before her 60th birthday, I was pregnant with my now 3yr old daughter ❤ sending love and light to anybody battling this awful disease
Hope and pray I can fight and survive I'm suffering pain every day because of this disease I don't want to lose hope I need to fight cause my daughter need me shes to young to leave alone in this world...God knows I pray for him to add me more strength...
And don't leave us alone to this battle I'm only 39yo and my daughter is 21yo I'm a single parent ...keep fighting have faith God is good all the time he can give his healing hands...❤❤❤
My Mom is also diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer as well. She was supposedly undergo an operation last month, but due to pandemic it was postponed. Now, my mom is suffering from pain and there's nothing we can do. It really broke my heart. 💔
Im sorry x
I hope she will be able to get her operation soon x
look with ganotherapy it can be cured with the help of God Investigate there are texts of people cured of tiredness with ganoderma lucidum Investigate and if you have any concerns write to me + 573125853837
I hope she got the surgery
I was diagnosed with a uterine cancer too… I hate thinking about that nightmare. It was horrible. I was so scared… I just turned 33, I was so young. I remember asking myself, asking the Universe “Why me?”. I felt alone. Even though I had supportive husband, friends and family surrounding me, but I felt alone... I wanted to talk to someone... To share my feelings, to cry all my inside pain out… I needed someone who could tell me what it’s going to be like… Later, when things settled down a little, when I accepted (not really) that I’m infertile, it was time to move on. And I turned to surrogacy. I’m so grateful to women who are ready to be surrogate mothers. They change lives! My son is 4. He’s EVERYTHING for me. Now we’re planning to go through surrogacy once again. Maybe next year my little boy will have a sibling. I really hope so!
Hello, Have you recovered from the cancer now? Wish you a speedy recovery. My mother is also suffering from the same. As part of the procedure total laparoscopic hysterectomy + bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy + bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection was done for my mother(52 years old). In sentinel lymph node biopsy for the right side One out of three lymph nodes showed metastatic carcinoma. In right pelvic lymph node, 10 nodes were taken and all were negative for micro/macro metastasis. In left pelvis 7 nodes were taken and all were negative for micro/macro metastasis. TNM staging is pt1b n1a. As part of the treatment doctors have suggested for chemotherapy followed by radiation therapy. For chemotherapy carboplatin(600 mg) + Paclitaxel(280 mg) has been asked to give per cycle for 4 cycles followed by radiation therapy. After this treatment, as mentioned by you it will have side effects, but does this increase chance of survival from cancer or recurrence and any chance is there for cure?
I recommend ganotherapy. Investigate with that you heal with the help of God. Investigate and if you have any questions write me + 573125853837
I already gave him the ganoderma Lucidum solution
Im so scared this is what i got aftter nearly 47 years of the effects of abuse from childhood i dont think i can take much more an abusive mother an abusive partner i left and now doctors found a solid lesion 2.2 cm in cerxix im so worried and i got 3 more weeks waiting at home to be called while this thing keeps growing i cant understand why dey won't bring me in now i asked them too and was told due to covid i must wait
@@reg8297 they always say covid this covid that stuff covid go in now!!
You are a beautiful woman.and may I add a strong woman.💜❤
I was diagnosed 2 years being 17 years old with Stage 1A endometrial cancer, being the youngest person to have this type of cancer and 3 months later, I had my hysterectomy removing my cervix, womb and fallopian tube, but my doctors risked it a bit by keeping my ovaries in my system!
I am very sorry that you are going through this! My sister was diagnosed with uterine cancer two days ago and we are devastated. She is scheduled in ten days for a surgery to remove the uterus, cervix and ovaries. Can you tell me how your treatment is going and do you see improvement?
So sorry to hear this, I'm 36 stage 1c. Ended up having major surgery where my left ovary was removed and any other Endemetriosis to be tested. I got the all clear from that to do emergency IVF before chemotherapy. I have a feeling I'm going to have to have a hysterectomy which is so scary I don't want to think about it. How are you feeling
@@monicacoe4266what were your symptoms?
@@catsNplanets none. I decided when I was 32 years old (2019) to do a body MOT for fertility as I was getting older and I wanted to know where I stood.
It was then they discovered I had an issue with the internal scan. That they referred me back to the NHS where they did basic tests and the put me down as having endemetriosis. Even though at 6cm I had no symptoms.
They were to monitor me, but because I didn't have pain or irregular bleeding I think they just forgot about me even though I was to be monitored to see how the cyst goes, but it didn't happen, maybe because of COVID or because the hospital was overrun.
It was only during COVID when trying to conceive did I have another hospital do the tests, did they see it grew to 10cm (no symptoms) did they say this needs to be removed before IVF and it was only then from the biopsy did they find the cancer.
@@catsNplanets didn't have any symptoms. Had a scan because I was trying to conceive in 2019 and was picked up in the scan I has 'Endemetriosis ' only to discover years later was cancer.
Thank you for informing us of this! Carcinoma in situ is a form of cancer that has progressed. The abnormal cells, which are also referred to as stage 0 cancer, do not penetrate adjacent tissue in the same way that cancer cells do. Certain carcinomas in situ, on the other hand, are usually treated because they have the ability to turn into cancer.
I hope you survive them all sweet heart
You have loving parents: that’s so nice ❤!
Sorry 😔🙌😭❤️🙏
Why does cancer exist this world .It must be hell what she went through we was brought into this world to be happy n progerate .Right now I'm sitting watching this and I am crying my eyes out
So sorry Clare😓💔💙💛💙💛
I too had endometrial cancer in 2019 all ok now for me but anxiety high
Same , anxiety and mental health , terrible daily .
I'm going through this right now after being diagnosed with stage1b Endometrial Adenocarcinoma on 8/8/2019 three days after having a radical hysterectomy
I just saw your comment on another video and commented I am so sorry you are going through this, I've got all the symptoms and am going through the waiting for ultrasound and blood tests etc at the moment.
I really hope you are coping with such a diagnosis of mine is positive that's my worry how will I cope with everything. I'm a mother aswell to two young boys who need me. 💓

People say that she could just adopt but having your own kids is totally different to adopting someone else’s
Hi Sorry only just seen this comment, I love the comment you made, I often get that comment made to me, my reply back to them 'adoption is an option not a solution,' I struggle with baby showers as even if I adopt I will never be able to feel or understand pregnancy and giving birth to a child. At the moment I'm still fighting the cancer and unfortunately have been left with side effects so I need to make sure I can come to terms with these before I even think about options like adopting, I think people don't even realise that adopted children have their own issues to deal with which why its not a solution and ahs to be a well though out option so that all involved in these matters are taking into consideration. thanks you for leaving your comment t help people understand the real impacts my cancer has and its not as easy oh well ill just adopt. sending love hugs and smiles clare xxx Keep Smiling :-

Making children yes is great but, there are children in foster care who need a family! They are unloved because everyone wants there own baby they don’t think of the ones who want us
As someone who is adopted, I find your comment to be very rude! Shame on you!
Im Adopted and I wouldn't trade what I've had with my parents who have past now Adopted children are the chosen ones !!! Just as loved if not more then natural children !
This comment is a disgrace....absolute rubbish medieval thinking....its superb to adopt in many ways ...shame on you
I have been bleeding for 48 days, my endometrium thickness came out to be 12mm on 40th day of bleeding. I live in UK and the gyne team been contacted by my GP. And this is nothing urgent for them. I feel depressed
How are you doing Sarah?
I have the same I'm in UK too.Gp send me first hysteroscopy next week I'm terrified. How you doing?
Approximately 40% of cases are related to obesity.[3] Endometrial cancer is also associated with excessive estrogen exposure, high blood pressure and diabetes.[1] Whereas taking estrogen alone increases the risk of endometrial cancer, taking both estrogen and a progestogen in combination, as in most birth control pills, decreases the risk.[1][3] Between two and five percent of cases are related to genes inherited from the parents.[3]
I have really bad side effects to birth control pills so unfortunately I can’t take them. Two days ago my sister was diagnosed with endometrial cancer and we are devastated. I feel like the whole world is collapsing on my head right now.
@@myay8340 There is evidence that eating vegetables, fruits, beans, green tea is protective. Also a daily serving of tofu or soy milk as it blocks estrogen receptors. Avoid processed foods, animal products (saturated fat increases risk), and sugar. Look for "slow" carbs like potato, rice, barley, steel cut oatmeal, etc. Daily exercise like walking is protective as is maintaining normal body weight. Even "healthy" fats increase risk so use sparingly. I spent the 5 weeks since my surgery frantically reviewing the scientific literature about endometrial cancer and other hormone driven cancer. Dr. William Li (Angiogenesis Foundation) has some CZcams lectures on how to eat to reduce cancer risk. He also wrote a book but you can get the points from his lectures. Also, you are now aware so if you have symptoms you will go to the doctor. So if you do develop symptoms you will go quickly to the doctor.
This terrifies me as my wife 37 years old is suffering from really bad pains throughout her lower back and abdomen and she's been overweight most of her adult life. I worry that we're going to find something like this. I have to be strong for her and just hoping for the best. She needs to live a long life for our daughter. Fingers crossed it'll be alright. My deepest sympathies to all the lives interrupted by this insidious disease.
hi. i was diagnose a month ago and i will have operation this end of month. i was totally down. i want a child so bad. i want to feel pregnant.
miss jeba you will feel what its like to be a mother just not carrying a baby. Believe me - being pregnant doenst make u a mum
I really hope you are doing well. May God bless you.
Hope things are continuing as you want x
I got diagnosed two days ago. I'm so shocked and scarred. I'm having a MRI in three days time to see what is going on inside 😔
I'm so sorry to hear that! Good luck to you. How did everything go?
I'm still waiting to get my cancer staged and to hear what treatment I will be having.
@@KEA23. Well good luck to you and I hope everything turns out well!
Update..I'm in remission from stage 1b grade 2 endometrial adenocarcinoma.
How are you now?
I never had children of my own - even though physically, there is nothing wrong with me! With 49, I have given up hope, but there's so much more than being the biological mother of a child! Lots of children are unwanted - a disgrace! - and being a foster mom or adopting a child, is that really so much different? 💋
There is so much more to this life than just having kids. No doubt Clare will raise the vibrations of love in this world! When my two daughters told me they did not feel they wanted to have kids (in their 30s) I was so relieved! In the USA there's no limits and too many kids are neglected, abused, missing, & murdered by the thousands every year.
@@styphlynne8253my 3rd daughter doesn't want kids and that's okay with me. She's a great aunt. My other 3 have precious babies so I'm happy but I worry about my girls with stuff like this. Cancer is like the plague 😢

“Endometrial, what is that!” Exactly the problem! Not enough education on this type and the body for young people and all. Educate to act early. Thank God for CZcams!

My sister was suffering from Endometriosis it includes symptoms like heavy bleeding and severe pelvic pain etc. She used various medicines got no relief from Endometriosis. Then she heard about Planet Ayurveda. She started to use Female Health Support, Aloe Vitals, Pradrantak Churna, Shatavari Capsules, Boswellia Curcumin of Planet Ayurveda and she got relief from Endometriosis.
Endometriosis is not the same thing as Endometrial cancer, which is what this video is about.
I am writing this many years later, but you can always adopt a child. many children need a loving home. my grandfather was a step grandfather. I never knew my real grandpa, but he was always my grandpa to me. I knew him since birth. It did not matter that we were related by blood. we were related by love.
actually the uk adoption system is not that simple, if shes got any risk of continuing to be ill they won't approve her to adopt
❤〰🌷🙏〰💚
How is she doing?

kazzywopz thank you

Wait why didnt they save her eggs?
I think I know why now... she must’ve got her uterus removed.
I couldn't have biological kids but I adopted
Thank you for helping a child needing loving parents! There are so many kids out there who need love and home. May god bless you for being adopter!
Her eggs could have been harvested before the radiotherapy?? she might not have been able to carry them but she could have had a chance at biological children
It's an arm and a leg in the US
My middle name is Oriel
Sometimes you don't even have time for that, if it's too aggressive.
I think your mindset at that moment would be preoccupied with your own sudden life-or-death situation.
It takes a while to get eggs ready for removal. Months of hormone injections there normally arent months to waste in these situations.
I found out I have EC. It's ok. I'm not afraid. How can I be. I'm going home to Jesus. Peace. No suffering. Home
My friend died from this
Is it possible to have an endometrial cancer even you are still a virgin?
Of course. Only some cervical cancers are linked to sexually-transmitted disease.
Yes, that happened to me.
Yes definitely its o ly hpv type of cervical cancer linked to sexual partners and sperm etc.
96% of cervical cancers are HPV related so a virgin couldn't have the HPV versions of cervical cancer but they could I believe get the other 4% of cancers or they could get uterine cancer because I don't think that related to HPV I don't know everything though about cancer just what I'm currently researching because I'm being tested as I've got all the symptoms unfortunately.
Yes. Endometrial cancer is NOT from sexual relations.
I think a good weight loss diet will help her first. That may be the reason she developed it.
the medications also make you gain weight, but if its genetic its nothing to fo with external, it means those cells are timebombs waiting to go off
@@cloudedcolour5329 how do you know? I don't think endometrial cancer is genetic.
