Finished 6th round of chemo today and rang the bell!
I have stage III-B, high-grade papillary serous endometrial carcinoma. It had spread to local organs, so everything was removed surgically; however, it had already spread to the peritoneum, as well. Fortunately, lymph nodes were negative.
(There's a P53 mutation going on and that's part of what makes it extra aggressive.)
Next up: ongoing Herceptin infusions and 5-6 weeks of daily radiation.
Sending best wishes and good vibes to everyone else here, in solidarity!! ~~~~~~~

fuck cancer all to hell!! 
I'm so sorry you're going through this, Sparkly, but it sounds like you've got a good oncology team, good attitude, and so happy to read lymph nodes negative! Chin up, healing thoughts going your way, and thanks for sharing.
Good luck with the rest.
You got this! Please keep your cheering section updated.

I hope you are in an area that isn't too hot or too smokey so you can get some fresh air over the summer.
There is so much lovely fresh produce to eat, too.
Looking forward to keeping you with us.

This means a lot, especially knowing there are so many survivors among us.
Thank you!

I'm still seeing the radiology oncologist a week from Friday to find out whether/why and how much I'll need radiation.
