My mother fell ill with cervical cancer 1.5 years ago. She has had surgery but has metastasized and the drugs are not helping. I don't know if he'll recover. I am afraid that I will also get sick. I wish I had an organ removal to be he althy. I don't want children in the future. I am determined.

You are too young for such a mutilating procedure and it is not performed without indications. At your age, a prophylactic pap smear, and if necessary - colposcopy, can play an important role. When everything is fine, you should get vaccinated against HPV, which causes cervical cancer, and have a Pap smear test every year. This precancerous cancer takes years to develop and regular visits can prevent a catastrophe. You may choose not to have children of your own choosing if you keep your reproductive organ. Let me mention that the lack of pregnancy and breastfeeding before the age of 30 is one of the factors of breast cancer.
