I suspect that either the tests were incorrectly done, or she is stretching the truth. miracles have been known to happen, but you see more chickens running around with dentures.

It has been known to happen. Praise the Lord! Tell her to check herself every now and then.

Was this a false positive? My mom's friends daughter in law got in from a std virus (it gaave her cervical cancer).Anyways, she should not have kids but never got cancer back

probably it was a pre invasive cancer that affects epithelial cells of the cervix only without infiltration of the stroma it also known as CIN (cervical intraepithelial neoplasm) or cervical dysplasia and about 60% of the cases heal spontaneously without any treatment the condition is just followed up by vaginal smears

Spontaneous remission is a real phenomena and occurs in all diseases including cancer, but it is very rare. http://www.intentblog.com/archives/2005/08/spontaneous_rem.html Spontaneous Remission of Metastases of Cancer of the Uterine Cervix http://content.karger.com/ProdukteDB/produkte.asp?Doi=91645

did she really have cervical cancer or just an abnormal pap? an abnormal pap can be nothing, thus future paps can come back clear. either she is a liar, uneducated or you have witnessed a miracle

3 tests? Sounds like abnormal Pap smears, not neccessarily cervical cancer. A conclusive test would have been a biopsy. Cell dyplasia can "clear" up.
