On December 21, 2021, I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer after months of appointments, biopsies, and misinformation. In January of 2022, I began my treatment plan which consisted of 1 full round of IVF to preserve our fertility, 8 rounds of intensive chemotherapy, another partial mastectomy (breast surgery), and finally 20 rounds of radiation. Today I am sharing a behind-the-scenes look at 1 full month of radiation, the side effects of the treatment, and a little celebration that this marks the end of a very long year of treatment.
The online world comes with many beautiful perks but the constant highlight reels of Instagram and social media can often make us feel isolated. Like we're not doing enough. Like we don't have enough. That we aren't enough. And while I love sharing the amazing places we've traveled and never miss a chance to capture a sunset I want my voice here to be more impactful. We are all enough. We are everything we could ever need. We can find beauty in the midst of turmoil, despair, and chaos.
Thank you for making this a safe space for me to share such personal videos with no filters. We love you. We can hardly believe that we are on the other side of this journey. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the love and support you have sent our way this year.

Good morning beautiful people! I am so proud to be sharing what we hope will be the last ever cancer video. It has been a long, challenging year made lighter by the people who have surrounded us both online and in the real world. We can never express the gratitude and love we have for all of you. Thank you, thank you ☀🥰
In Jesus name i do pray that it shall be the last cancer video May God protect you as always.
I’m so happy then also because it’s two of my fans b days and now I’m so so happy thank you for telling us love you guys so much also I was just rewatching your 30 day recovery ❤❤❤😭 omg I’m so happy luvs
Love you both! Praying for healing and strength. 🙏🏾❤️
Love you Bec! I am sure it IS the last!! Only real sunshine from now on. Love to all your Legends.
Thank you Bec! I’m so proud of you and Eamon!! Thank you for bringing us along cuz we all LOVE LOVE LOVE you guys!!!!! 💛☺️🙏🏽
Sweet sweet sweet Bec, when you posted your first video telling us you had breast cancer I myself was diagnosed with cancer as well. Everytime you uploaded a video you were one step ahead of me so I could prepare myself for what was coming, which made me feel like we were in this together. You inspired me to document my own cancer journey as well and I'm just so happy that you're done. A few weeks ago I heard the news myself that I've beaten the cancer! We are winners!!!!! Much love to you ❤️

Congratulations!!! 🥳❤️💃🙏🏼
Congratulations 🎉
Congratulations 👏. May the Lord bless you and keep you well. You now have such an ability to help others traveling this road. 🥳
Congrats!!!!
I think only those who experience cancer themselves can understand the range of emotions, fights and difficult moments you go through. Everybody else just has no clue. Even when you go through it yourself, you still can't put all of it into words.
To a point. My husband has been my ears and eyes for 4 months and at times struggled more than I have. He has been a Rock of support and reason. I am 60 years old. It has been hectic to say the least. ❤️🇦🇺🦘
I know the feeling. Going through it at the moment. I have 3 more rounds of chemo. That's of the 16 rounds I have to do. Then I have surgery, and then 30 rounds of radiation......😬🤯💪🏼
Oh for sure! I am now battling depression- I've never had depression. It's so frustrating that things seem to go from one issue to another.
I underwent mammosite radiation in my left breast following surgery for ductal carcinoma Stage 2. Today marks 18 years from the whole scenario..being cancer free now. I am so thankful.
As a fellow breast cancer survivor I just cried so many tears of joy for you! Congratulations 🎉
I’m a student radiologist, and I just want to say thank you so much for been so open about your experience, it was so valuable to hear it from the patient perspective
Just found this. I had the most awesome radiologists. One was 'old school' and had like 25 yrs experience and had seen so many advances. The other just 8 yrs. But the same experience. Advances in radiation therapy, techniques, equipment, etc are excelerating. Good luck in your career.
I really like how Eamon called Bec a weapon. The positivity you exude is a weapon & you can’t be broken. That was beautiful to me.
More like a sales woman for outdated and invasive technology. #rife machine and others like it is the future they are not telling you about
HAPPY FOR YOU BOTH!
As an 84 y/o man I had 45 radiation treatments about 10 years ago for prostate cancer.... men do not talk about it.
9 weeks, every Mon thru Fri
Made peeing tough.
Peed off the back of my pontoon boat while fishing, with buddies on board.
WELL WORTH IT.
YOU ARE A SURVIVOR.
I had to have my first tattos as well, they include a chip I think, the machine went around me once each time to find these chips, then again to zap the cancer.
The radiation was directed in a more concentrated area each 15 treatments.
I did not get any burning of my skin. Not sure why you did. At the very beginning they gave me a huge female hormone shot.
Now years later I feel great.
So men get cancer too.
YOU ARE A SURVIVOR.
Image those elsewhere who are never diagnosed or treated.
WE ARE THE LUCKY ONES.
GOD BLESS.
Have fun and enjoy life.
My lovely husband did this. Hope you are ok. Prostate can be toughtpath.
My dad got proctitis from his but they also did too much in the treatment program so it scares me a bit, but I am going to the 2nd place he went and did better. He also had heart failure and a pacemaker/defibrillator that complicated treatment. I learned radiation zaps pacers.
If I’m ever faced with the challenges you’ve overcome, I hope I handle it with even half the class and grace and positivity you have.
I’ve used the “if I had to choose” mentality before but never for anything this serious. It was always something like when my kids got lice once “I’m grateful this is the problem I’m facing” sort of thing.
Thanks for being such a shining star for us and how we embrace our problems, big and small.
exactly !
You will, the saying is mostly true: whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger
I have a cousin who has breast cancer right now and what I have seen is that its not the positivity. We see videos but what I see from my cousin is that shes also realistic and the reality isn't always positive. We need to accept that as a reality. It wont be positive all the time and it can be humbling at times to see the reality. My cousin has young children and spent a week away from her family to heal from her surgery and it wasn't easy. She has a baby she couldn't hold, she and her husband took their older kids on a mini get away and she let us know what she couldn't do. Being positive is important but respecting the reality is another. If my cousin didn't consider the reality and tell us when her days aren't good. She probably wouldn't have accepted the help she received because she often is used to being self reliant with her husband. She had to step back and realize that her cancer has put her a few steps behind where she is usually and thats just how it is. My cousin just continues to help others now that she is more able because she feels better mentally to help others rather then just being positive. She sees the needs of others and feels like everyone has a trial in life and this is just hers.
@@Skatejock21 I think we see that in the video...🙏🙏 for your cousin and family.

Once again, I’m sobbing because I’m so proud of someone who doesn’t know me, but I feel like I know her with my whole soul. I’m so proud of you Bec and I cannot wait to see all the other blessings life showers on you!!! 💕
It has almost been 30 years for me since my diagnosis. I have stage 4 cancer thanks to a bunch of physicians thinking I was too young, at 47, to have breast cancer so they wouldn't order a mammogram. By the time the tumor was removed it had already spread throughout my body. But I was lucky and new treatments came along just as I outlived my old treatments. I ended up having two, 32 sessions of radiation, to different areas,, which was not fun, but I never burned so that was a blessing. Both left me totally exhausted around the 20th session. I lost track of all the surgeries I've had. I actually did very well on chemo as I have an autoimmune disease and the chemo kept its symptoms in check. It has been quite an adventure. While I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, I can't complain as I've managed to stretch an expected 18-month survival into 29 years, so far. I'm hoping to make it at least 30 if I can get through the winter. The only advice I can give you is to stay positive and do your own research on your type of cancer. I did that and it saved my life.
Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. I started my journey on 2/10/23 and it's been a rollercoaster. Thank you for sharing your journey. I cried and laughed with you. My diagnosis is different but I'm also doing chemo and a couple surgeries will follow. You've given me hope. I wish you both a long happy life together.
I wish you both
Omg I was diagnosed 2/10/23 as well!!
We got this !!!!
Becs is so inspiring and I can’t wait to celebrate the little things!!!
@@janellethechillis_ Wishing you strength for the battle ahead and much health.
ure in my heart. All my prayers are for u
I was diagnosed stage 1 invasive ductal carcinoma on 11th Oct 2023. Mastectomy Nov 9th 2023 and just finished Radiation therapy Jan 17, 2024. Im sitting here rubbing 3 creams in for itchiness and burn.
Make sure to keep up with the creams.
All the very best on your cancer journey. 💗❤️🇦🇺🦘
@@gail9906 I get this. LOL. Good luck.
Without even personally knowing you, seeing you happy, crying happy tears and seeing you being proud of yourself makes me cry with you every single time. To Bec - You are such an incredible, strong woman with such a great mindset that simply makes you a true rolemodel. Thank you for sharing your journey, showing vulnerable and true sides of life and being open and honest along this way. And to Eamon - what a true best friend and partner, what and incredible support for Bec you are...AMAZING! Love you, always happy to watch your videos and looking forward to everything that is to come - you deserve all the best this world has to offer. Greetings from Germany. Take care!!!
Hi bec, I find my self crying in every video you post just really felt that I should message you and tell you how proud and happy I am for you. My grandma passed away from Breast cancer when I was 8 years old, being that young I didn’t understand what she went through and how truly hard it was but watching your videos this past year has made me so so unbelievably appreciative of her and your strength. Your videos have made me feel more connected to my grandmother and for that I thank you a million times over. You are so strong. You are beautiful. I am so happy for you 💗

I can’t thank you enough for sharing your story. I already watched what comes after and has given me hope and comfort. I am petrified, 6 days ago my biopsy result was cancer and will have my operation on the 6th December and from there you know what follows. Your story has hugely helped me to prepare for what is to come, I was breast cancer ignorant and is testimonies like yours that help me to take a positive view. Thank you, thank you, thank you ❤
I'm a middle aged lady who was on CZcams for crafting videos when the algorithm decided your bad news was feature-worthy. I immediately became invested and am so happy you're at the end of this journey. Now I'm sticking around your channel for some awesome non-cancer content too! Love from NJ, USA!
You’re a legend, Bec! Tears of joy
I feel like I am reliving my breast cancer journey thru you. I drove 75 miles each way for my year of infusions, I had 18. And I drove the same 75 miles each way fo 35 days for radiation. I started watching because of your journey but discovered along the way that I loved you guys! You are a rock star! You got this!
Thank you Libby 💛
So very sorry, I had chemo and radiation, stage 4. This was back in 2011. I'm a survivor. I thankfully never got burned. Praying for you.

Crying my face off watching this as someone going through breast cancer treatment. Radiation is next for me. 20 rounds, 5 being boosts. This makes me feel less alone. It makes me feel that someone else has the same fears, concerns, hopes. This is amazing and I am so grateful you documented this. I know it’s a year old and I’m so glad it’s behind you. Cheers!
Hi! Your comment stood out to me out of many. I hope your radiation treatment goes smoothly and that you make a full recovery! My mom just got diagnosed this week, and she has surgery next week, then radiation. I know I’m not the one going through this, but if you ever need a listening ear, please reach out!
@@_thekatieshowgood luck ...my wife have surgery tomorrow....low grade breast cancer
I was diagnosed Sept. 8th, 2023. I have Stage 2 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Grade lll, HER2 Negative. I have to complete 16 rounds of chemo. 4 rounds of doxorubicin ever 2 weeks once a week. Those are finished. Now I'm doing 12 rounds of Paclitaxel once a week for 12 weeks straight. I have 3 more rounds. My doctors are impressed with how I've gotten through all this and how great the lymphnodes shrank to absolutely nothing as well as to 2 lumps in my breast. My white blood cell counts are great as well as my organs enzymes and levels. I'm glad I'm healthy, young (35), and strong enough to manage all this. I have 3 more rounds of chemotherapy and I'm just so happy it's almost over. Next I have to discuss surgery. I have that BRCA-1 GENE which is the hard part of deciding what surgery I do. Then I have 30 rounds of chemo for 6 weeks straight 5 days a week. That's going to be wild. I had mastitis in my left breast exactly where my cancer lump was present. Very coincidental for it to be at the exact site of the mastitis infection. So I'm not sure if the cancer grew bc of past infection from the mastitis or its bc of the BRCA-1 gene. I also read that women that have had mastitis had a higher risk of developing breast cancer. So I'm so stuck on the decision of a bilateral mastectomy or of I'm still eligible for a lumpectomy since I have 2 lumps that grew in my breast at my 11 o'clock and my 2 o'clock (looking at the breast as a clock). So that's going to be the hardest decision in my life. Makes me break down in tears bc I'll never really be able to have kids after this I'll be in my 40s when I'm finished taking that medication since my cancer is estrogen fueled. So no more kids for me as I do a mastectomy then lose those beautiful memories I had breastfeeding my baby girl. Sucks, but I guess it'll keep me here longer with my daughter and family. The emotional moments peek in here and there but mentally I've been positive. I hope your journey is good to you and you beat this demon of a disease. ❤🎉💪🏼💕
I have been watching you two for a couple of years since I found you from Kara & Nate. I have found so much personal motivation from you , Bec, during your cancer journey this year. I find you to be an amazing example of positivity combined with realism. Your unselfish real struggle with mental health and example to the world is life changing for so many people and I applaud you for your bravery and leadership! You are a STAR and you give me hope each time I think of you. WELL DONE! A good friend just said she can't travel because she was just diagnosed with breast cancer and there are scary times ahead. I sent her your channel link to see your amazing journey and to hopefully be comforted by your raw and true journey and the questions that you had along the way. She is scared and just entering this as you did. I am very confident that your CZcams series will allow her to understand her journey more deeply and allow her to traverse her future. Thank you again for being so strong for us. We love you!
Thinking of you and your friend as you navigate this scary time. Being there for her will be such a comfort and support to her 😊❤
I'm 69 years old and you're a Inspiration to me. Last time when you did that run, I got off my butt and started exercising. My husband and I cried. I'm so proud of you and Eamon. We will keep you in our prayers.
I kept coming back to your videos as my grandfather goes through radiation therapy for his lung cancer. Your voice and smile, as well as those hugs and kisses with family, really bring peace and calmness to me. Thank you and wish you the very very best
Crying crying and crying a bit more. You’re amazing Bec & Eamon the love and support you’ve shown Bec through this time is the purest of love!
Oof. Kara saying she'd take the radiation for you just punched me in the gut with love and emotion. What a gift to have such special people in your corner.
I’m in tears as I watched the end of this video. I want to say THANK YOU for documenting this medical marathon as I am now starting my own breast cancer journey. I was diagnosed a few weeks ago and have gone back to rewatch many of your videos as a way to help myself with questions and mindset moving forward.
I will pray for your journey. ❤️
God bless you and help you find strength and peace everyday.

Good luck 🍀 sending positive vibes and I hope you kick cancers butt too xo
I found your channel through Kara and Nate and I’m absolutely blown away at how you’ve navigated this harrowing journey! The positive spin you’ve put on everything to accept the medicine instead of fighting it has no doubt helped your success in being cancer-free. If I ever find myself on that road, you will surely be my role model.
I shaved my head in high school and if you’re trying to grow it long again, there’s just no avoiding the awkward stage between cute short and when it gets long enough to put some product in and add some little clips or bobby pins in the front to calm it down. It sticks straight up all over. You might need to bust out the wig and head covers again during this time! Regardless of what your hair looks like, you are GORGEOUS and HEALTHY and I am so happy for you!
You are beautiful, strong and amazing. As a child cancer survivor I was absolutely devastated for you when you announced that you were diagnosed with breast cancer. I've lost so much people to cancer and at that point I only could hope that you made it through. I cried my eyes out as I watched every video but Im so glad that you overcame this. Your mindset throughout this journey was admirable; many say that half of the battle. Im so glad you were surrounded by those that love and care for you deeply that often makes the battle so much easier, knowing that you have love and support. Im so proud of you and over the moon. Continue to be a light in the world
When you go through something like cancer as we have been going through, you really begin to see and appreciate the community of support that you have surrounding you! I can't say enough how important the love and support is when going through this journey. I don't know what I would have done without my husband by my side. Congratulations on finishing your treatments. Here's to nothing but clear scans in the future 🥂 💗
Sorry to hear you are walking a similar path Michelle but you are SO right. Community is absolutely everything ❤ sending you lots of love and positivity and hopes for nothing but clear scans for you too xx
@@eamonandbec I am experiencing no health insurance, no family and no care. Diagnosis was Thyroid cancer and then my breast. I tried to receive Medicaid but was denied. I live in the United States. Different states have different standards, I live in a state that has done nothing to help. In the beginning of all of this, I was speaking to a nurse while receiving treatment for ulcerative colitis about Single Payer, and she stated how horrifying that would be and that it is, well, communism.
@@donnamaco1 I’m so sorry to hear that. I can’t believe your state denied you Medicaid! I’m keeping you in my prayers. Blessings to you.
Yeah my dad passed away when I was 29 and pregnant from lung cancer as stubborn as he was he continued to smoke, he didn't even get to meet his first grandkid.
I was packing getting ready to go to West Virginia from Illinois to see him and we were about to leave when I got a phone call from my sister telling me he had just passed.
I think they pulled the plug because it was just a few days before Christmas and they didn't want him to pass away on Christmas Day.
It's a very tough thing to go through. You never get over it. He also had a brain tumor they operated twice I guess in the third time we were told was not a good idea.
I miss him everyday.
@Donna Cooper Hi, may I ask where you live?
Just crying my eyes out with happiness for you both😭Bec, that part in your journal about your mindset making your body an inhospitable place for the cancer was just such an inspiring and insightful piece of writing. You, Eamon and Oso are such a light in this dark world. You really make me (and many others, I'm sure) want to be a better, kinder, and more loving person to everyone and especially to myself. 💜
I found you through Kara and Nate and watching this video came to me at the most perfect and amazing time. My mom was recently diagnosed with non-hodkins lymphoma and is the very beginning of her journey. Albeit it's not been an easy start to the journey. Your outlook just touched my soul and has given me so much hope for my mom's future. Thank you. God Bless You. Also, CONGRATULATIONS!!
As a Stage IV Lymphoma survivor, I have to say how much I appreciate your story, your love, and your positivity. I know deep down that sometimes it is challenging for you to do so. Thank you for sharing your bravery. I found you guys through Kara and Nate. and I have to say, Your husband is beyond kind. He is so supportive, nurturing, loving, and positive. All those special people in your life truly make a difference in recovery. =) All my love to you.
Congratulations! I’ve been in the supporting role 3 times! I asked my hubby what he thinks is the secret to beating cancer and he said positive attitude, the total belief that you will win and the love ones that surround you with support, prayers and tons of love! Bec, you had all of that and showed people your courage and determination! Well done, both of you! You both are an inspiration, not only because you’re just genuinely beautiful people but, because you are an example to the value of a loving committed relationship…the good bad and ugly and how love multiplies through it! ❤ Look forwarded to your new chapter! 🎉
💛💛💛💛
I just wanted you to know that when my mom had radiation, ie the burns, we used vitamin E oil, and it healed right up. It healed perfectly with no scar at all. I'm very happy that things are going so well for you. All is well.
You poor dear girl 🥺. You have been through so much! I’m thinking of you and praying your burn from radiation heals and you are pain free with no more cancer.
Sending hugs from State College, PA, home of the beautiful Penn State University
You two are truly the most empowering people I’ve watched on CZcams. You took such a difficult time in your lives and made it inspiring. I thank you so much for sharing your journey with all of us. I’m so proud you you guys ❤️ can’t wait for new adventures!!!
I dropped everything to watch the moment my notifications came on. Hearing you read your journal entries made me feel so emotional. Congratulations Bec, to many more beautiful months and years and decades ahead ❤ Thank you for sharing your highs and lows with us and for being you.
Thank YOU for being such a wonderful, loving supporter of ours. We couldn’t have done it without you ❤
Letting Eamon ring the bell was touching, just shows your unselfish Heart ❤️ Your support of each other shows what every relationship should inspire to be. It is so wonderful to see you beat Cancer after watching what you have gone through.
I just finished watching this cancer journey with you both, I'm so glad you got threw it. But I'd like to say I'm glad you shared it with us all and the love you have and support for each other is what got you both threw. That is so inspirational in so many ways thanks guys
The team of Radiation Oncologists (not radiologists as you stated) that you’re working with are just a wonderful, amazing team! You’re team of family and friends are so amazing as well! You are so supportive and what a wonderful, positive attitude you have towards all this! ❤
I’m sitting here with tears streaming, celebrating for someone I dont even know…but I do. I know your heart and spirit and have sent so many prayers. I love how you have been in phases to show the highs and lows, and really educated through your story. Congrats Bec, and kudos to Eamon. ❤️❤️
I feel the same way💯💯💯🎯🎯🎯🙏🙏🙏
I’ve never cried so much for a couple I simply know through videos. Congratulations Bec! Here’s to tomorrow and the days that follow ❤ if I ever find a love that reflects what you two have, I will cherish that.
OMG same here... I'm crying as I'm responding lol... at least these are tears of joy and we can continue to celebrate life as we watch the progress of her real life recovery... I'm thankful for them sharing with us when this is such a person journey 💛
Hi Bec, I started watching your cancer journey 7 months after my partner has (thankfully) completed his. My partner had radiation everyday for 6 weeks on his neck and jaw, it was brutal watching him go through it, and barely being able to drink water at times. But, throughout most of his journey, he had a similar attitude to yours, and I am in awe of both of you and the many people like you who kick cancers ass! Out of necessity and precaution, I am getting my own cancer genetic tests done and I have been crying with you, hoping I don’t have the gene that causes breast cancer like my mom. I wanted to thank you for documenting your journey and showing us the importance of being proactive when something is wrong. I am so happy to see you thriving and happy, I wish you and Eamon a lifetime of health and continued happiness. Thank you ❤
You are such an inspiration Bec. Your positivity and Eamon's unwavering support has been so beautiful to watch. I am so proud of you both
Emotional is a big understatement when trying to explain how I feel! You two are truly something else 🌻
i’m so so proud of you. the strength you have shown in the last year is incredible and just so inspiring. been following you for years and i’m just so glad you’re on the other side now
Thank you so much Hannah! I am so excited to be able to film some videos that don't revolve around treatment and cancer. We all deserve to have a little fun after this year!! Onwards and upwards ✨
Congratulations! You give what you get so you must have lots of love coming your way! Happy healthy days ahead! You are so strong I wish every woman could watch the videos you have made from day one to now ❤❤
Congratulations to the both of you! I can't really describe it any other way but you live life so beautifully and I hope you never stop. You guys deserve the world and I hope one day you can go back to the road and continue exploring new countries and cultures, the way you were before. We'll be sticking with you through it all
What an incredibly strong and resilient human you are Bec. So thrilled that you are finished your treatment and ready to begin the next chapter. Thank you for sharing your story. Love from Sydney, Australia 🌻
So proud of you both Eamon and Bec. I remember when you first announced you found a lump, then confirmed it was cancer. To think it's already almost been a year. Wow, how far you've come! So happy for you and I can't wait for you both to move into this next chapter. As for the hair, I love it short! Bec you absolutely rock the short hair, love it!
Every time a video has come out on this journey to beat cancer it has been eye opening, moving and some how incredibly uplifting. Too see you go through what you have from the start with so much positivity while obviously going through one of the hardest things any person can go through. Shows what a strong positive mindset can do. Just thank you for being you. ❤❤
I am so happy for you for completing this tough journey with so much optimism and hope. And that goes to Eamon as well - you guys are both an inspiration. Much love
My girlfriend and I have been watching you guys for some time now. We have been invested in your journey. We absolutely adore you guys. You both have helped us grow and love so much more thoroughly and always make the next day better than the day before. I’ve learned more about love and happiness from your journey than anyone could’ve ever taught or told us. We love you both am ❤
Seeing you and Eamon ringing that bell was just the highlight of my day. I am so glad that you were surrounded by such positivity and strong people, because getting through this is not easy.
PS I loved the big earrings with a really short hair…you really rock that look!😊❤️
Oh my goodness! The end of this video made me cry tears of happiness! The sweet words of Eamon in the van and the ringing of the bell! Bec you're a true warrior! The amount of strength and positivy you have shown over the past year is incredible! You and Eamon are amazing people and I am so happy to be a subscriber to your channel. Love you guys! Ps: you are killing those outfits and the short hair! Those hoop earrings are everything!🥰
Bec, you are one hell of a strong woman… you are just beautiful the way you are … Sending you lots of love and positivity… ❤
There’s not a doubt in my mind that you are at the top of the most beautiful people in the universe. I’ve never seen someone as positive and brave and uplifting and full of hope and spirit in my life. It’s so fucking awesome.
Not only are you brave to face this daily, but Eamon is such a champion of support and seeing your friends support and be there for you is so amazing. While this is scary for you it must give you such comfort knowing you are so loved. Always thinking and sending you positive vibes Bec! You got this the whole way!
Congratulations for being done with your year long race with the breast cancer. Those words “You are now cancer free” are the best ever to hear. Now you can relax and maybe use those new eggs. Bec you have been such a strong woman through all this. You also have the love and strength from Eamon. So many husbands would never step up to do what Eamon did for you. You are such a loving couple. I wish you both health and happiness in the years to come. I was crying during the videos because I knew and understood what you were going through. I have gone through breast cancer back in 2001. The only difference is my tumor wasn’t fast growing and it was small. I got the terrible burns that blistered with radiation treatment also. That was so painful. We are both proud SURVIVORS!! XI would love to walk with you at one of the many cancer walks that brings awareness about cancers. Bec you look beautiful with short hair. After some chemo when your hair grows back it may have some curls in it.
So proud of you both! I don’t think I’ve ever known a couple who faced such a crisis with as much positivity, grace and humour as you two have! Thank you for sharing not only the fun and happy times in your lives but the tears, the questions, the ups and downs of your cancer journey and the not so easy times! You have taught us all so much through your vulnerability through this whole journey! I have always felt like Lee is up there in heaven sending you her strength and that sparkle to help you keep keeping on and I know that she has been there with you each step of the way! I am so proud of you and Eamon both because you have fought this together and we should all be so lucky to have a love story like you two share that I know has only gotten stronger! You look absolutely gorgeous Bec and I am so, so, so happy for you both!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi 👋 how are you doing?
Smiling ear to ear this whole video such a positive person in the dark times
Your attitude during all of this has been beautiful and inspirational. The love Eamon, your family and friends have for you is amazing. Congratulations on ringing the final bell! I hope I show as much positivity, strength and grace during the next difficult situation I face. Thank you for for being a trail blazer in a multitude of ways! Love you both!
23 years ago for me I finished radiation after breast cancer. Back then it was recommended to use pure alovera and it really helped. My skin tolerated the radiation treatments very well, but the last couple were very uncomfortable. I was working full time and only left work long enough to drive to and from the treatment. I’m so happy you are finished with all your treatments, rest up and get on with your happy life. 🎉❤
I’ve been told to slather on cream, My Girls, and use a rinse Domebro by someone who went through this without difficulty! Why would they say aloe doesn’t help now? Do you know? So confusing!
I'm amazed how well you are doing, Bec. When I had radiation treatment it absolutely took away all of my strength and I became so weak that I couldn't even walk. It also made me terribly anemic and I caught every bug out there for the next year. You are absolutely admirable for sharing your situation with your illness as mentally, I know how much hell you have been through.
Bec, you and Eamon are an inspiration to all for any tough journey anyone might be going through. It was so nice to see you surrounded by so many friends and positive light to help you both on this journey. Happy that you have come through the other side and I wish you both well.
I feel like I have been on this journey with you. On September 7, 2021 I was diagnosed with stage 3C ovaian cancer. During the subsequent months of surgeries, chemo, and hospital stays, your channel provided me a much needed distraction from everything. I quite literally watched you for hours during chemo. I was so saddened when you were diagnosed but so grateful that you are now, just as I am, cancer free.
wts ue age now
Always sending you and eamon all the love in the world. You are such a strong woman and I'm so proud of you getting through it ♥️
Thank you so much for being a support for us both throughout this time! We appreciate you 💜
Bec, I started running after watching your chemo to 5k video! Thank you for inspiring so many people to see the positive side of every situation and for showing that if you can do all you’ve done while going through cancer, anyone can do whatever they set their mind to! Much love and congratulations! Here’s to the next adventure!
What an inspiration you are ❤your video really helped me to get some insight of the radiation journey for my mother, who has been waiting for her Results and treatment plan, today she found out ❤ she is starting her journey soon. good luck and huge hugs ❤ love to both of you
I am in tears watching this, the strength and positivity you have shown on this journey is amazing. I am so happy this part of your journey is at an end, thank you for sharing it with us and looking forward to seeing what is next for you. Also huge admiration for Eamon for being your rock and support. Love you guys 💜
I don’t have to do radiation but my chemo starts soon. I was diagnosed with stage 2 colon cancer. I’ve been positive throughout this. And watch you go through this has kept me grounded and knowing that cancer is not always a death sentence. Way to go Bec. ❤
Thinking of you Kelly! You’ve got this ❤❤
Please watch the Gerson Cancer Method here on YT.
Great ideas/tips I hadn't heard of before.
Wonderful people.
Prayers to you.
Prayers for you Kelly.
think about diet changes girl, sugar is the #1 food of cancer cells. Its hard because its an addiction, it will be a gift to yourself!
Goodluck with everything! 🥰
I feel like you've been my breast cancer journey twin in so many ways. I started my diagnosis and treatment journey in January.
I was a little more fortunate in that my lumpectomy took out the cancer before we even knew it was cancer and all gone immediately. I had to have prevention treatment.
Chemo and Radiation are exactly how you have described.
I went through the journey of confusing information as well. Ex. Aloe Vera
I was however told to fill tube socks with rice and put into fridge. Then use to cool down radiation area. Helped.
I also used Radiation X creme cheapest from Amazon. I used Aquaphor creme. And in a knick of time for right after I used a Dermatologist prescribed Clobetasol Propionate. Although late info for you, perhaps someone else will benefit.
Bec n Eamon, thanks for sharing your journey! Take Care!

Watching Kara & Bec interact with each other; I can't imagine being that happy to see someone and having someone be that happy to see me. That's why I watch their channels though, I love both of these couples so much and feel I live vicariously through them :) Thank you, Bec & Eamon and Kara & Nate for the positivity you all bring into our lives, you are our rays of sunshine!
Your positivity during this is so inspiring. I’ve never seen a video from you guys before, but as someone with chronic illnesses I’m often finding myself in a depression due to just the constant up and down of my health. But this video helped redirect my brain in its thinking and finding a way to see the positives. Thank you for sharing your journey and being such an inspiration for me!
You are so strong and brave. I’m doing low dose chemotherapy right now for an autoimmune disease. You’re helping me get through this with your endless positive outlook on life! Congratulations bec!
From a fellow autoimmune chick, I'm sending you so much love! 💗 Keep your head up 🥰 I know how hard this is. I was diagnosed in 2006. I'm here if you ever need someone to talk to!
We just lost my grandpa to cancer and my uncle to liver failure, so this is the kind of good news my soul needed today. So incredibly happy for both of you in closing this chapter and on to brighter days!
Bec and Emon, even though we haven't met, you have made such a significant impact on my life. Thank you for showing me (and the world) how positivity, resilience, hard work, humor, strength, love, passion, community, and many other qualities cure everything! even cancer. We need more people like you two on this planet.
I'm so, very proud of your journey in life, and I wish you continue living life to the fullest!.
Thank you for giving me a ray of sunshine every time I click on your channel. You always make me cry, laugh, and look for ways to improve my life. You inspire me!
Send you lot's of love from Caracas Venezuela!
You had me in tears when you both rang the bell. What a journey you have been through. My late father had the same..radiation and chemo for throat cancer. I'm so proud of you and for Eamon for always being there by your side. ❤ you both
It’s blows my mind how positive and strong you’ve been through this whole thing! I’ve been watching the whole year crying, laughing with you and praying for you! ❤❤❤
💛💛💛
I couldn't help my eyes from filling up with tears! I have been following your journey from the start and it was such a beautiful one; Bec, throughout this year you have redefined bravery and strength. Thank you for sharing this past year of treatments with us, Bec and Eamon you guys did it !!! ❤☀
Watching you rock this, and kick cancer's butt, while also being open and honest about the struggles along the way means so much. Someone close to me was diagnosed around the same time as you, and recently lost their battle. But watching your journey has been so healing for me, and a real ray of sunshine each time one of your videos pops up. It's amazing that you have made it to the end of this chapter, and I wish both you and Eamon all the happiness - You are superstars
P.S. Bec I cannot get over how cute you hair looks, especially with those gorgeous boho outfits you've had throughout this video, hope you are loving it & proud of it too :)
Just over here crying my eyes out! Bec you are so so beautiful inside and out! Thank you for allowing us to join you and Eamon on this journey! Love you guys!
I’ve been a silent watcher since the beginning of this journey. Becca I’m so proud of you and so happy you’re good
It’s never silly to celebrate little milestones! Celebrate them all, girl! You’ve earned it!! Also, I have only just found you guys (through Kara and Nate) but I feel really proud of you! You are a warrior and you’ve inspired me to reframe my thinking and be mindful when life is messy. Thank you 🙏🏻 🤗
💛💛💛
Aww Bec every time I watch your progress it makes me cry. Your sunny personality and positivity is remarkable on this terrifying journey you’ve had to endure. Your bravery in sharing the journey will, I’m sure, help others who are facing tackling this too. So glad it’s finally behind you xx
The love from Eamon, your family and friends is indeed a blessing and recognising it and the memories you’ve made with them this passed year shows what a beautiful light you truly are.
We were fortunate enough to meet Aimee & Craig on their Wheelie Bin Challenge (we never dreamt we’d actually meet them!!) and I talked with Aimee about you as you’d just received the all clear from your doctor. Aimee said they were visiting you both and I hope you all had an amazing time together. Sending hugs and much love, Liz ❣️💞
I was diagnosed with BC in September, will starting my radiation this week, waiting your video so encouragement and inspiration. You are strong, positive energy and so much love❤❤
Silent follower for what feels like almost a decade. I’ve never cried so much for a complete stranger, but whenever you rang that bell it was tears of joy. I am so happy for you Bec and I hope that one day I can raise my two daughters to be half of the courageous, brave, and beautiful soul that you are. ❤
Bec- so so so so proud of you!! I cry right along with you, laugh with you, and hold you in my prayers for total healing. My friend just got diagnosed and so I am starting the journey with her. Both of you are such amazing women and truly inspire me with your grace and peace in this journey! Eamon- you are so amazing. You’ve always been supportive of Bec but to see how you have grown this year - man this was a coal to diamond year for you my friend!!
I’ve been following you guys for a long time and have been watching as you’ve been on this cancer journey. Watching you guys ring that bell… I’m bawling. Congrats Bec (and Eamon too!!) ❤️🎉
I am so happy for you!! I know this last year has been extremely challenging but your positive attitude throughout it all has truly made you an amazing person. Congratulations on the end of treatment
My grandma rang that bell in 2019 and I still get so emotional when I hear it!! Congrats girl!! You've had such a great mindset throughout the whole journey!! 🥰
Dressing up for chemo or other treatment is THE best thing to do ! I have done it, during all my treatment and it helped me so much mentally !! Thanks for sharing your experience on this channel. I discovered your videos (with the one of your diagnosis), approx 2 or 3 days after learning myself, that I also had cancer. It's been great to see your journey. Thank you.
So sorry to hear that you are walking a similar path Julie ❤. You’ve got this!
@@eamonandbec
I am so glad for you Bec, that's all done !! Congrats !
I can relate to so much you're saying and feeling.
It's been sooo hard, but in all of this, there is also beauty and growth specially when you have an amazing partner by your side 🙏
I got really emotional when you shared your perspective of radiation being "clinical" - that's exactly how I felt during my radiation but hadn't heard anybody else say it that way before. Thanks for helping me to communicate my own experience with cancer!
OMG. BEC!!! I'm so very very proud of you!❤️. You are my treat of sunshine, everytime I see your smile, you make me smile. Pride wells up in me for you! I have been watching you and Eamon for so long, lost track. This definitely is your year to shine, you deserve all the happiness in the world. Eamon your my hero, and Becs, your love and support gives me hope that there still is good guys out there and hopefully I'll find my Eamon. What a year, the two of you have grown even tighter together, who thought it could go way beyond and more. Lee is definitely smiling. ❤️ Love you both so so much, hopefully you feel my love clear from Windsor, Colorado ❤️❤️
I am so happy that you have finished treatment! My scar on my breast is in about the same spot as you. I needed a lumpectomy and radiation and I am on tamoxifen for 10 years. Here’s to beating cancer! Congrats girl! Love ya !
How do you feel on Tamoxifen
@@muriellejq hi! Sorry for the late reply. I didn’t feel too bad. I had some joint pain but that did get less for me. I had very dry lady bits and ended up having spotting. They took me off the tamoxifen and I had a d and c. I’m on Zolodex now and letrozole. I’m feeling pretty good on these.
I have never had the courage to watch a video about someone’s struggle with cancer. The courage you have to face your fears with an amazing positive attitude is exemplary. As a mother of adult children myself, I am certain that your own parents are so very proud of you. For going through your valley of the shadow of death with such courage. And yes you are beautiful, inside and out.
Congrats Bec! I cried tears of joy with you when you rang the bell… I remember ringing it myself at PMH in 2000… I cried as well every time I heard it. So happy that Eamon got to be there with you to celebrate.🎉❤
Discovered you two from Kara and Nate’s channel and I stumbled upon this video……. Man I’ve cried so many times watching this lol. You are SO strong and your energy is just so positive it truly radiates!!!! Your tears of joy spread so quick to me!!!!! Your husband is so supportive and it made me smile HUGELY watching how happy he was with your progress after every appointment and how incredibly happy he was for you. This was beautiful and I’m so happy to have witnessed even a tiny bit of your journey. Wow. I’m in my feels. I don’t know you but I love you guys!!!!! Praying for you two !! ❤❤
I was trying to not watch this video simply because i was not prepared to bawl my eyes out yet. But here we are with a gallon of happy tears and tonnes of postive vibes. You two are absolutely incredible, strong, empathetic and kind. Thank you for bringing us with you always
I've felt especially close to the two of you on this journey. Physically, I live less than an hour from Kingston where you have been having your treatments. But also mentally, as my grandmother and my mother's partner are both going through their own battles with cancer right now.
I appreciate you sharing the ups and downs of this past year with us (I randomly came across your channel just a few short months before your diagnosis)
It's been amazing to see your perspectives through it all, and I am proud of both of you. Your love for each other and this world truly brings tears to my eyes.
The two of you are awesome. You have definitely been surrounded by love and community on this journey. So good to see Kara and Nate supporting you too. So thankful you have made it to the end of the radiation journey. Continued prayers!
ahh, i am tearful as i watch this video. i hope you both know how much you are loved by all of us watching. bec you and eamon have both been so strong throughout this journey. i am so elated to hear the sound of that bell! it’s so special seeing someone i don’t even know being so positive about something that is so negative. thank you both for your infectious joy! CHEERS! ❤️
