MY OVARIAN CANCER STORY (A Christian's perspective)
Vložit
- čas přidán 31. 08. 2021
- All I wanted was to have a child or maybe two. I enjoyed my honeymoon year with my husband and after that, we planned to have a baby but because of family circumstances, we postponed our plans of trying to have a baby. Later on, we intentionally tried to get pregnant but after two years, we hadn't been successful. Because of that, I had myself checked by a general OBGYN. At first, he said that it seemed like there was nothing wrong. I ate right, exercised, was at the right weight, too, and didn't have any medical issues. An ultrasound was done there and then and they found a mass in my ovary and a fibroid. Again, the OBGYN was not too concerned but got all my bloodwork done at that moment, including a CA-125.
A few days later, the doctor called me to come in for a follow-up check up ASAP. On the day of check up, he said that it found it more appropriate to tell me in person that my CA-125 was around 1600 (where the normal is below 35) and I was referred to a specialist. At that time, I was paying out of pocket and the general OB's office helped me get approved for health insurance.
Within a month, I was at UCI with Dr. Tuwari's office. Because of my age, he wasn't worried about me having cancer even if my CA-125 was elevated but he had me get bloodwork done again to check my CA-125 again. A week or two after, I was told that my CA-125 went up to 1900 and at that moment, it became a concern. I was scheduled to have an ooperotomy to remove the left ovary and the fallopian tube. My first surgery was done and I thought it was over! No need to be concerned and I still had one ovary, fallopian tube and my uterus! But story was not over.
The next week, September 10, 2019, it was confirmed that I had Stage 2B ovarian cancer and all my reproductive organs had to be removed. In other words, no more baby. That's when it all got to me. You'll hear the rest of my story in the video.
But in the end, I say that the Lord is faithful. I'm alive and God still has a purpose for my life. I have yet to find out what exactly that is. For now, I get to serve as a mentor to the younger generation and help out in wherever I'm needed at my church and I get to do this CZcams channel.
Continue watching for more of my story. :)

I had ovarian cancer as well but went the totally natural treatment route - doctor warned me that I would be dead in a year without treatment. That was 40 years ago LOL. Praise God for healing.
That’s awesome!!!
@@navbharat1443 it most definitely was cancer
Me too but they didn’t tell me I’d die - they just rolled their eyes lol
Hi Carol. Amazing. Can you share what you did? My friend has stage 3 ovarian cancer and is desperate to avoid surgery scheduled in less than a week from now. She is new to faith and we are praying for a miracle. Would love to connect. Blessings to you. Louise
@@louisescott2429 I immediately got rid of all "white" food - flour, sugar. I threw out all household cleaners, including detergent. Absolutely everything. I switched to Shaklee supplements and cleaners and never stopped using them -- for the past 40 years. It gave me my life back and I have not even had a cold or the flu since 1982. I am now a health coach and symptomologist as a result.
God bless you. I was recently diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer at 35 years old. The Lord will use this for His glory. There’s not many videos about cancer from a Christian perspective and yours is really encouraging. How beautiful how you disciple children and youth. What a gift to your church
I’m so happy you found this! And I’m glad your cancer was found sooner. I’ll be praying for you, sister. We are in a fallen world where we will have disease and suffering, but may we continue to trust in God. It’s hard but I pray you get thru it with a strong faith. Please update me.
How fun to hear you celebrate your 100th subscriber at the end and even mention her by name. I love it!
😂 Yes, simple ways God reminds me of how God has been using this channel and ministry.☺️
Oh my goodness! I'm speechless. You're story is both heartbreaking and inspiring, I'm simply amazed!
Right?! Well, I feel that the Lord is preparing me for something. We’ll see what it is. Thanks Karina.
Woah! What an inspiring journey you had there, Hannah. Praise God that you have survived and you do not choose fear, instead you're living in joy! 🙌💕
All the glory belongs to Him!
I'm so happy you're still alive, budz. 🥺 thank you for sharing this. Praise the Lord. 🤍
I’m happy I’m still alive, too!!! 😭☺️
You are a living testimony and we bless God for His faithfulness upon your life Sis!
May God continue to bless you richly 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you so much, my friend!
Powerful testimony!! I’m so glad you are doing well now! Love your positive attitude!! May we never take life for granted!! The Lord knows what he is doing!!
Indeed, God knows what He’s doing. This was the period of my life where I learned to fully surrender.
I’m sorry you had ovarian cancer. It’s great that your Alive. I can’t imagine having cancer. The closest I came to dying was when doctors telling my mom to terminate me before being born. But my mom refused. I’m glad your good and blessed. May god continue to bless you
Thanks Matthew. I'm so glad your mom chose life for you! You have a purpose! I pray that you live it out. :)
@@HopeandFutureDevotions thank you. I’m 23 now so I feel blessed. Doctors told my mom I wasn’t gonna function properly because they thought I wasn’t gonna be born with a spine. I ended up being born with a fine spine. My mom prayed for me before I was born. I’m glad for your blessing. Thank you as well
Thanks for sharing this powerful testimony. May God continue to use you for His glory..
Thanks for that encouragement. I really do pray that this video helps someone.
what a great testimony. very encouraging. God bless you and you continue to live your best life. ❤
Thank you!
Psalm 145:13 is such a good word. 📖You ARE indeed strong and also courageous.
…and God is good!
Thank you for sharing this video now I see that you are over 1000 subscribers. God is good. I also saw that Sean talked about your channel. Great job.😊
Thanks brother! God is good! Praying that our message would reach as far as the ends of the earth!
Tearing up listening to your infertility story.
So grateful you survived this and have gratitude in your heart. What an intense journey!
🥹 (happy sigh). This was necessary to break me, to stop me from being so independent and self-sufficient than I realized. I’ve increased my faith, thanks to these circumstances.
Thanks for checking it out,btw!
@@HopeandFutureDevotions And I'm tearing up reading your response 😭😂
Bless you, Hanna!!!
Thank you for sharing your testimony. It was very encouraging. I hope you are doing well ❤❤❤
Yes I am! 4 years in remission!
Praise God that you are cancer free!!!
What a beautiful story that can bless and encourage others!!!
That’s my prayer! To bless people.🙏🏼
Oh Hannah this video just made me cry and I'm so proud of you,you are such a brave person and encouragement. I'm recommended same full removal surgery this year. But thankfully they are still trying to help me with medicine rather then chemo therapy.
My chances if within one year medicine work they can allow us to have baby and then have full removal surgery.
I hold on to joy and hope at same time every day no matter whatever future holds.
Much love 💜✝️
Big hug, Saira! The journey isn’t easy but I’m glad you still have the option to try having a baby. Stay as healthy as you can.☺️ The Lord is with you.
@@HopeandFutureDevotions Amen Sis big Hug 🫂 back to you.no wonder I feel spiritual connection with you 💕
Wow. What a story. I had no clue! So sorry you had to go through all these trials. Praise God for healing! Keep going for Christ! We must always trust His plan.
Hey! Yeah…(happy sigh) The Lord is good. He still has a mission for me. Thanks for checking this out.☺️
Thanks for sharing your cancer journey. God is faithful. Amen.
For God’s glory!
I am a Christian that at age 25, was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer. I am now NED 2 years. I do struggle to stay positive. Happy to have found your channel.
Wow! NED for 2 years! That’s awesome! What comes to my mind for myself is that I’m happy to still be around my loved ones during this time. I might not be able to have biological children but it has opened my heart to possibly adopting one day. I see each day as a gift now because I almost lost my life. I do pray that you stay positive. I hope whatever you find on my channel blesses you.☺️
Wonderful story! My wife had serval back surgeries. We wont be having children. It's sad but we pray and hope to be an example to our friends children. Plus we have a niece! God has blessed us with these opportunities to love and council children around us. We can't have our own but we can be examples of Christ to anyone!
Yeah, it was hard to accept at first, but when we trust that God is good, we see how we can bless other children around us. Also, I’ve become open to adopting! Whatever the Lord wants at this point.☺️

Just about a month ago, I was told a malignancy was found in a biopsy done on my ovary. Going to see the cancer specialist this Wednesday. I'm scared to death. Seeing you has given me hope and comfort that cancer is not a death sentence. I lean on God and his word, but being human, I have my tear filled, scared moments. Anyone out there reading this, please pray for me. Thank you for your testimony. ❤
Hi sis. Big hug! I was in disbelief back when I first found out. It wasn’t sticking until I found out that I couldn’t have my own kids anymore. I may not understand, but God’s ways are higher than ours. Cling to God thru this ride. Have strong believers in your life to support you. That’s what got me thru. Please update me. I’ll pray for you. -Hanna
@@HopeandFutureDevotions Hi there!
Your words uplifted me and I appreciate it. I have great friends who are prayerful people. My family has rallied around and are supportive. I'm lucky. My radiation and chemo consults are coming up and pet scan too. Not sure what to expect with the chemo but that will be answered. So glad you're doing well, and thank you for responding! I'm ready...💪❤️
So important! Glad you have them. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 God bless you!
I was 1C1 - declined carbo and taxol - still have an ovary - it’s been over a year. No recurrence
Glad you caught it early!
Hi how are you doing now? How much time you are into remission and did you changed anything in your diet? Please answer these questions really need these answers thankyou
Hi there. It’ll be 4 years in remission in January. Generally I try to eat healthy but it’s almost a normal diet. I just watch my weight. Nothing too extravagant. I have no history of cancer in my family. It’s different for all of us, I think, but I hope it helps anyway. I hope you’re ok.
Did u have debulking surgery??
Hi there! Yes I did.
@@HopeandFutureDevotions at what stage your symptoms detected???
It was at Stage 2B.
@@HopeandFutureDevotions ohh. Did it spread to your liver, stomach or bowel?
@@navbharat1443 It hasn’t from the last time I checked. I’m praying it won’t come back.
Hi and my mom had ovarian cancer
I’m so sorry. How is she now?
@@HopeandFutureDevotions not too well .
@@HopeandFutureDevotions what is your treatment?
@@viorelscrob6391 😔
I had surgery to remove one ovary, Carboplatin and taxol for 3 sessions, surgery to remove everything else, (had a hematoma during recovery) then 3 more sessions. I wanna hug you tight!
Jesus is Lord
Indeed!
No a prophet only God is Lord
