Young woman's life-saving advice after shock diagnosis leaves her 'broken'

A young woman told how she was "living her best life" on holiday only to return to urgent letters from the NHS.

Sarah Waters was due to have a smear test in 2020 but it was postponed due to the pandemic. On April 1 this year, she managed to book another appointment and attended the routine cervical screening.

Sarah, now 30, didn't hear anything for a few weeks and assumed "everything was normal" when, at the end of May, she jetted off to Spain where she had "best time". But upon her return home to Prescot on June 2, "urgent letters" were waiting saying she needed to be referred to hospital following her results.
