Sleeper, I just wanted to chime in, hopefully it will help a little bit. I went through this exact thing, I had several positive pap smears, had a cone biopsy, and was treated for abnormal cells using liquid nitrogen, everything came out just fine (this was in my early 20's). Changes in cervical cells are usually detected extremely early, often years before they become'cancerous' so to speak. Try and reassure your wife the best you can, I know hearing the word 'positive' strikes such a fear, but the positive is that cervical abnormalities are extremely treatable with very positive outcomes.
My prayers are with you and your wife.
