A mum who was initially told the pain and discomfort she was experience was due to her contraceptive coil now has around one year to live.
Emma Rice, 32, from Birkenhead, first started experiencing symptoms in February 2021. The 32-year-old experienced heavy bleeding from her vagina and discomfort.
At first, her GP thought that her contraceptive coil had become dislodged but it was later discovered that she had stage four terminal ovarian cancer in January 2023. Despite the mum-of-three undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the cancer spread, and Emma has now been told she had around a year to live.
