For the past several years Jennie Allen has been raising money for various charities by trekking around the world. She's walked across England, trekked in Africa and New Zealand and started to run marathons. But in mid 2013 she started falling ill. In July she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. By the time she was admitted for treatment, fluid build-up in her abdomen was so great that she appeared to be in an advanced state of pregnancy. Friends and family feared the worse, and Jennie saw it in their eyes. But Jennie never doubted she would live. 10 months later and shortly after being given a clean bill of heatlh -total remission, she tells her story...
Cancer. Very pleased that 45% of viewers have watched the entirety of this 12 minute uplifting video I made for my friend Jennie. Know anyone worried about cancer? Show them this.
I will show it to my dearest friend tomorrow. Many thanks for making this great video and to Jennie for telling her uplifting story
Thank you. I've just been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Felt bummed all day since leaving the dr's office. This video has helped me, knowing that I'm just starting down this road of treatments and more tests. Ugh. But thank you. cyndy
This lady seems like a lot of fun. This is a very uplifting video. Best wishes for her continued good health
been recently researching about ovarian cancer. I'm 16 and going to get tested next week to see if everything is okay. wish me luck.
Thank you for your testimony and your positive 😃. I'm going for testing tomorrow. I am encouraged by your life story. Bless you! Tina from Southern California🌈🙏
How is she doing now? Came across this, after researching my symptoms. Every symptom points to Ovarian cancer. My mom just passed from breast cancer, and I began having symptoms while she was in the hospital. 5 months of this, change in bowels, irregular cycles, pain in lower abs and lower back, swollen lower legs, my belly size increasing and doesn't match my figure. But the past 2 days now, I'm just beginning to get sick while eating. I've always been able to eat a lot. Went to my MD last month, normal pap and normal "over the stomach" ultrasound, and then suggested I see a GI. Really?? Last week I had such severe cramps, yet refused a cat scan. They DID schedule me with a top OB, I'll be seeing him in 10 days. His nurse said he would order scans, thank God. If I DO have ovarian cancer, I'll use this woman's strength as a source for my own. My mom was not much of a fighter. I will definitely be fighting. I loved this woman's determination. Thank you.
did you have it?
What is your update?
September 2021 I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer after having been to a G.I. Doctor who assumed that all my symptoms were due to opioid constipation. Doctors don’t listen. I told him I was having nausea, vomiting, and trouble being able to eat even the smallest amounts of food and would swell up on the right side of my stomach. I also told him about pain in my bladder area that was not burning pain but was painful to even turn over. It wasn’t until I landed up in a woman’s clinic and they did a sonogram inside as well as out that they found the tumor. Actually the Doctor Who sent me for the sonogram felt the tumor but had to make sure. Then I was off and running. Three bouts of chemo, surgery with massive debulking and then three more chemo. In between I would have to get blood transfusions as well as shots for white blood cells. Push your doctors don’t allow them to tell you it’s nothing it may not be ovarian cancer but that doesn’t mean there isn’t something wrong, you know your body best.
you are so beautiful 😊im so proud of you .God bless you and hope deep in my heart that you get better😢
So good to hear a positive outcome.
Thank you so much for sharing your story xx
thanks for this....keeping it to symptoms is so helpful there are so many and what might be for one might be different for another but good to here
Can you please message me with what you have done to stay cancer free all these years. Mum stage 3c high grade serous ovarian cancer and desperate she is 39 😢
Thank you for a very inspiring story. I did not know that having ovarian cysts and endometriosis, increases the chances for cancer... Anyway, it is worrying that as a patient you have to be very persistent and strong to get a diagnosis, when you know something is wrong. I don't even want to think about what could have happened to you, if you weren't. I wish you all the best. ❤️
what an inspiring story! A very good friend of mine has ovarian cancer and is waiting for surgery...So worried about her, especially while she's living in Russia and not sure how qualified her doctor is...if she only could get her surgery abroad where there is a high quality of medical care and experience...oh, we'll see
You are anazing Jenny ..I have an emergency appointment with my gynecologist Tuesday ...I’m really uncomfortable..not as destended as you were ..but I’m feeling very unwell
hi I just wanted to say I'm so sorry you are going thru this .I'm probably going the same you are going.I pray to God I don't .but I can't lied .I do .
Very encouraging
Inspiring individual
Such a lovely lady, hope she’s doing well ✨
Yes, she still is, now years on cancer free!
TheVideoWhisperer wonderful news! 💚 thank you for the update
@@TheVideoWhisperer is she ok?
@@semanawitkibrom5430 Yes, Jennie is still going strong. 10 years ago (at the time this video was done) she owned two shops in London called Bailey & Sage. Since beating cancer she has expanded her empire to 13 shops, all in great London locations. Thought I'd share a link from the Bailey & Sage website to give you a bit more info: bayley-sage.co.uk/about-us/#:~:text=Jennie%20Allen%20started%20Bayley%20%26%20Sage,quality%2C%20the%20B%26S%20story%20began.
@@TheVideoWhisperer oh am very happy for her thank goodness
I'm being diagnosed of ovarian cancer and yet been schedule for operation. I'm angry! Angry because I don't have money or insurance. If you don't have money or insurance in my country then prepare to die because they will make you wait until those paying patient finish their surgery before they got time to cut you, which by the time they get to me my cancer would have metastasized! Just want to vent not looking for sympathies!
SexySheerah how sad, but maybe Jesus is telling you to do something? My Mom died of ovarian. She had chemo surgery, went to the brain. She didn't do any natural remedies. Her Mother died and that really depressed my Mom. 1 thing I'm grateful for is that my beloved Mom knew Jesus and after she died that is when I gave my heart to Jesus. May Jesus bless and heal you♡♡♡♡♡
SexySheerah, how are you doing now?
I have a lot of the symptoms for Ovarian Cancer, although they came on quite suddenly. I get bloated and gassy immediately after eating, I need the toilet to pee a lot and I've been tired on and off. Also I have the side pain too. I took some medication that seems to have helped with the gas and is supposedly helping my diarrhea too but I'm still so worried.
Get it checked out. Could be nothing, or...(don't ignore it, get a professional evaluation)
You need an ultrasound request it
You have a wonderful courageous attitude. I was so nervous the whole time, but what can you do. How are you now?
Jennie doesn't monitor this channel but I made the video at her request 6 years ago and I can tell you she's alive and well. In fact my wife is going to visit her in her French house this Sunday.
TheVideoWhisperer Oh that gives me so much hope, thank you so much for answering
Thank you @videowhisperer! I'm going in the morning for another ultrasound but this time with my gyno that I haven't seen in 4 years due to my insurance. I'm 90% certain I have had ovarian cancer since 2017 but it wasn't detected on that ultrasound or endometrium biopsy. Sooo 4 yrs later we will see. I just started losing weight this month after gaining a lot.... 🤦🏻♀️
@@TheVideoWhisperer is she in remission?
She's still cancer free 7 years later
❤️
Incredible! What stage was her cancer? how is she doing now?
Not sure if 3 or 4, but it was pretty bad and many of us were concerned that she would not survive the operation. She had a slight relapse the next year, but got over that and has had a clean bill of health for about 3 years now.
Nothing short of a miracle.
How are you doing now Jennie?
Enjoying The Journey; Cancer As A Lifestyle Jennie doesn’t monitor this (I made the video) but I can tell you she’s alive and well and cancer free after all these years. Yes, there was a momentary relapse a year after this video, but she beat it quickly and has been clean to this day.
Is she doing well? She gave me lots of hope and inspiration. I d like to know if she had a recurrence and what she did about it.
Yes. But what I'm going to do is send the link to this video to her. Of course she saw the video when it was made, and occasionally I'd tell her how many people had watched it and some of the comments about how it was helpful, but maybe she will answer your question right here herself. Watch this space.
I am the lady in the video. I had a recurrence a year after the first diagnosis. I had several rounds of further chemotherapy with different drugs. It had little impact on the cancer. After a number of months, I had further surgery to remove the tumour and two months after that I had 25 sessions of radiotherapy. That was in 2015 and I have been disease free for 4 years now with stable ca125 levels.
TheVideoWhisperer thanks so much! Her wonderful story really helps to keep on fighting this illness with optimism.
Jennie Allen I thank you so much for your response and I am so happy for you. I am in my second recurrence and working hard in my mind and body to bring myself to a remission. I salute all those women like us who have had to travel this road wishing you all the best!
@@jennieallen5669 Dear Jennie I am sooo happy for you. I wish you all the best in life XXX
A message to anyone googling "cancer"....
Unsinkable Molly Brown, unstoppable Jennie, same, same, may there be many more survivors turned thrivers. Mr VideoWhisperer, the power of video strikes again, well done, more need see this.
I got ovarian cancer at 32
Jennie is still alive and cancer-free. She got 1) good treatment, 2) studied the hell out of the subject and pretty much went vegetarian/vegan but still enjoys a good bottle of wine. She's a statistical anomoly (because ovarian cancer ' is incurable and a killer'.) So do what she did and study the hell out of alternative holistic treatment/diet and do your best to mitigate or eliminate the supposed 'inevitable'. You can survive!
that technician would be fired in the US.
That’s your take? She’s still alive and we’ll all these years later after stage 4 ovarian cancer. How’s your success rate with those technicians and doctors?
