Quick smear test saved mum’s life

The 36-year-old mother of two was “harassed” by friends to get a smear test in 2012. Fortunately, she relented.
“It was after I had my second boy, a friend of mine had been harassing me to get my smear [test] done. I eventually made an appointment, not expecting anything, but I got a letter saying there was an abnormality and that I needed to get a biopsy done and then couple of weeks later I was called and told the result was high grade-three pre-cancerous.
