Screening Saved Me

Cervical cancer is preventable — and when it occurs despite screening and vaccination, that fact can carry its own particular anguish. The writers in this volume have sat with that complexity and set it down on the page alongside the rest of their experience, which asks more than any single word can hold.

Inside this volume

Fifty accounts describe the path from an abnormal smear or a symptom through biopsy, staging, and treatment — surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or some combination — and into recovery. Writers address fertility, relationships, body image, and the psychological toll of a cancer that touches parts of life rarely spoken about openly.

Who it's for

For those diagnosed with cervical cancer, those in the long aftermath of treatment, and the partners, families, and friends who want to understand what this experience is like beyond what the clinical notes describe.
