Good mornings, goals and gratitude's

Tue, Sep 29 | 6:00AM - 7:30AM UTC

Welcome to Good Mornings, Goals, and Gratitudes. Each morning, we meet with open hearts and tired eyes to greet the day gently, set a daily goal, and choose one small act of care for ourselves. Then, in return, we are grounded, lighter, and reminded that we are not alone. In the GGG, we start our day with positive quotes, journal prompts, self-care activities, daily intentions, and a goal we aim to achieve that day, followed by a moment of gratitude. Join us for a gentle, caring way to start your day.

Topic context

Understanding cervical cancer

Cervical cancer is most often diagnosed in midlife, and some women are diagnosed while they are raising families or still hoping to have children. Treatment can affect fertility and intimacy, and because the illness is linked to HPV, a very common virus, some women feel an unfair sense of shame.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with cervical cancer

Peer support can help with cervical cancer because shame grows when a subject is kept secret. Speaking with people who listen without judgment can ease that weight, and it helps to hear how others handled conversations with partners and family.

Inside the room

What cervical cancer groups often cover

Grief about fertility and plans for a family
Intimacy during and after treatment
Shame or blame connected to the diagnosis
Managing work and children while in treatment

ShareWell groups are peer support and do not give medical advice, so please keep working with your care team on anything about diagnosis or treatment. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Good fit for

Who these groups may help

Women diagnosed with cervical cancer at any age
Women grieving a change to their fertility
Anyone who has kept the diagnosis private

Frequently asked questions

Does ShareWell have a cervical cancer group?

Not yet. This page lists groups that welcome people with any serious illness, as well as calm sessions such as mindfulness, so you will meet members with a range of conditions.

Can I talk about fertility loss?

Yes. Members talk about fertility and grief, and ShareWell also has infertility groups on their own topic page.

I feel ashamed of my diagnosis. Is that common?

Many women say they feel that way, even though HPV, the virus involved, is very common. A group can be a gentle first place to talk about it.

Where can I find information about cervical cancer?

Cervivor (cervivor.org) is a community of cervical cancer survivors, and the National Cervical Cancer Coalition (nccc-online.org) offers education and support.
