Sophie’s Choice- Cervical Cancer Screening

March 17, 2014

I’ve just read the very sad story of Sophie Jones, 19.  Sophie sadly passed away on Saturday morning. She lost a year-long battle with cervical cancer.

But when she first had symptoms, she was refused a smear test- because her doctors said she was too young to get the disease.

Now, family friend Pamela Keelan has started this petition to get the minimum age for cervical cancer screening lowered to 16.

Please, join me in signing, in memory of Sophie and to help make sure there are no other Sophies.
