Hysterectomy after pelvic radiation for cervical cancer

Hi All,

I just have a question I was hoping someone could answer.

My mum was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer stage IIB 2 years ago. she under went chemo, radium and brachytherapy after which she was given the all clear. She has had a discharge ever since she had the radium and went to the doctors about it where she was told that the cancer had returned. It's only a cluster of cells, but the pet picked up on it. She has been told she'll have to undergo a hysterectomy, but it wont' be straight forward as after having radium your organs can basically stick together and her bladder may have fused to her womb so when removing her womb she may end up with stitches in her womb which likely won't heal fully and she may end up with her a 24 hour drip or a bag! Is there anybody here who has undergone this surgery successfully following therapy? We are all concerned, it just seems never ending! Thanks for taking the time to listen/reply to me
