Emma and Dava Rice married just months before the mum-of-three died
Emma Rice, from Birkenhead, was repeatedly told by her GP that the abnormal bleeding she was experiencing was a result of her contraception becoming "misaligned" and that it had "lacerated" her womb. Emma's GP said he would not perform any tests, and she was told she was "too young for it to be anything else."
Speaking to the ECHO, David - known affectionately as Dava - spoke of Emma's bravery and selflessness, even in those final months. Dava is passionate about warning others, and encouraged people with any doubt whatsoever to get checked and do a smear test. Dava told the ECHO: "As soon as we found the news we were both devastated. Emma was traumatised because she didn't want to leave us all behind. She was brave and always put other people before herself on every occasion."She remained there until June 29, when she died.
This month is Gynaecological cancer awareness month, which aims to raise awareness around cancers such as Emma's as well as their early detection and prevention. One in four women throughout the country don't attend their cervical screening test, which can have serious implications.
