Jessica x - ZĂĄbava
Jess, I was sad for you when I heard â âŠIâve done nothing today.â You are doing so much in the emotional, mental realm. Digesting and processing this event takes Herculean efforts. Your courage in sharing leave me deeply moved. We love and support you, xo.
I agree. â€ïž Ronnie Milsap song⊠â from the moment weâre born until the fading light, and all the seasons that turn in between, itâs the love that you give in the hour you live thatâs the measure of the life you leadâŠweâre here to loveâŠâ
Jess, I've been an Oncology nurse for 15 years. You are a star! Keep being honest with yourself, and if you have a question or concern -- ASK the question. â€
Ditto! Best practice is often regional or led by latest key opinion leaders. Research, research research! It's YOUR bod and YOUR journey! In 5, 10, 20 years you can tell your story to help guide others. Go slow, try a new hobby, get a pedicure... we are with you all the way!
Why are all these people that took these covid vaccines developing cancer?
My team has been treating people for 9 years now with Rick Simpson cannabis oil. We have achieved a 93% success rate against all forms of cancer. I just got off the phone with our newest winner an hour ago. A stage four lung cancer patient received her " cancer free" diagnosis. She has only been taking the oil for 50 days so far. Please believe me and do some research. The cure for cancer has been discovered, but only the lucky ones will listen.
When my brother was going through cancer he would sayâŠ.itâs okay to visit pity city, but you donât want to live there! You go girl, youâve got this! â€ïž
Awesome quote
Thatâs a great line.
Jess, don't ever forget you have an army of prayer warriors supporting you. You got this!
Yes! â€
Hang in there there sweetie. You are a very strong woman and you will kick cancers ass. You have the CZcams universe pulling for you and we all love you â€.
Thatâs right, Jess girl! Love you!â€đđ» Itâs a lot to take, and youâre doing so great. Up and downs and high and lows are to be expected and help you cope.đđ»
She hasn't got cancer anymore, they removed 1 Overy that had the cell in it.. Jess said the chemo is just precautionary.
Hang tough, babe! Tens of thousands of people are with you, sending strength and love. And puppy kisses are good medicine!đŸđ
Well said! Totally agree.
Me too! đđđ
From one cancer patient to another, YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. The waves of this journey will bring many different emotions & feelings. Do what you need to do for you. đâ€ïžđ€đ»Iâm sending you all the comforting vibes I can.
What you say is so true. I'm still oall over the place. It's hard
@@india1422 thatâs OK! Side note: I love to read too but when you are in treatment it can be hard to concentrate on reading. I changed to audio books on audible. Zodiac academy was awesome on it!
Jess, just about every appointment was overload. We kept journals and recorded meetings to review later. You know how your brain just shuts off? Those recordings helped. Each visit for treatment we documented guidence and details. It became a check list that felt rewarding and a way to report details after for adjustments.
You have an incredible family support and a great attitude.
Its typical to need those five steps back to regroup and tackle.
Enjoy this long weekend. The weather sure turned niceđ
Well said and absolutely great advice! I did much of the same and it really helped me to get through it too.
That is another great piece of advice that I told all of my patients facing a critical ' medical mountain.' It not only works as you wrote, but also is a 'snapshot' of where you were and look at how far I've got. It's like a diet; looking in the mirror or at the weight scale everyday, doesn't really show the actual accomplishment. Warm hugs from Alabama â€ïž
So true! When you're at those appointments, you are just in survival mode. I normally bring someone who takes notes, and when I can't I bring a list of questions and write down the answers I'm given. My surgeon, oncologist, and radiologist also provide me notes from my office visits, although they are often very different then my notes!! Tomorrow is chemo 15/16
@@kityez1017 wishing you well on your journey
@@kityez1017 good luck in your journey.đ€
Jess, this is the place to vent. We are here to help keep you propped up, mentally, physically, and emotionally. Iâm a fellow cancer warrior so I understand.
Me too
Amen, Suzanne! I had a cancer issue as well and it was challenging. However, I believe I am even stronger now and it enhanced my life even though I couldn't have children. At the very least, I hope to be a positive influence and prayer warrior for everyone around me. Warm hugs from Alabama â€ïž
I wish you the best for you jessâ€
Itd so much for me to start with you and ur mom but now I'm on the cancer train learning along with you. This emotional rollercoaster really sucks though.
I am a three time cancer beater. Cry, scream, fight!
You are going to feel every emotion known to man like a tidal wave through this. It's a lot to process and deal with so give yourself permission to feel however you feel without guilt. Then vent those bad feelings wherever you're comfortable doing so. It was difficult for me to see the blessings in my life at the time, so I literally had to write them down every day to remind myself that blessings still existed even on my worst days. Growing up on a farm makes many of us feel like we should contribute something constructive or helpful most days--if you ever feel like that forget it! You have 1 job this summer and that is to get through this treatment so you can get your life back to what you want it to be! I guarantee that's the only thing everyone who loves you wants!
YES,HANG IN THERE SWEETIE THERE'S MILLIONS OF PEOPLE PRAYING FOR YOU LIKE ME đđč I KNOW IT'S HARD BUT HAVE FAITH. đ
You got a whole channel supporting you. Days will be good, days will be hard and some days it will be okay to just hang in bed. No right or wrong way to do this every feeling is ok. You have shown great strength but no one expects that all the time!
You got this !!! Don't deny your emotion live thru them. These are legitimate concerns.We all care and send our love and healing prayers.
You are such a balanced level-headed young person. A testament to your own strength of will and your loving family background! You are a hero for many people traveling this same health journey. Hold fast our girl. You got this.
Youâre going to need your dad to build you some bookshelves soon! Let us know what you decide to read next. Maybe some of us could read the same book and we could have our own little book club!
Keep on keeping on, Jess! Weâre all pulling for you!
Having a Jess Book Club would be a amazing!
What a great idea! Iâm sure that there will be days when Jess doesnât feel like sharing whatever feelings/symptoms/frustrations she has been dealing with that day, but would like to connect with her supporters. She could just chat with us about the book of the week instead.
Toot when you can toot, but when the freight train arrives, feel it. Itâs valid. Thanks for sharing Jess and when you feel you canât, thatâs OK too. 𧥠đłđż
Jess, Iâm sorry that youâre going through this! Iâm also a cancer patient as well! I did 32 days of radiation and now I do maintenance chemo every month. Iâm here if you want to talk to someone who understands what youâre going through!! Love from Oklahoma đ«¶đ»đ«¶đ»đ«¶đ»
I was treated out of London for advanced breast spread throughout and uterine cancer - London Cancer clinic is amazing. They will keep you comfortable throughout treatment and have amazing staff and support services. Your positive attitude and courage to share your journey with others is beautiful. You've got this kiddo - when you are done treatment and get to ring the bell outside the chemo suite , or bang the gong on the lower level after radiation - you will feel the love, support and congratulations from the applause and cheers from 'cancer families' celebrating your victory as you progress into full recovery! It is an emotional moment even now when I hear the 'tones' of other cancer warriors pass their milestone. All the best to you and your family - you are welcome reach out if you have any questions xx
I hope you rang the bell Beth
You Rock =D
Hey Jess, I know you donât know most of us but the ones coming over from your moms channel Iâm sure can agree that we love u and are hoping and praying u get through this as smoothly and painlessly as possible. Sending so much love and hugs your way! You look great and u are being so brave and Iâm so freaking proud of u!!
We totally are here for you!! You vent, cry, laugh, do whatever you want. Thousands if us are rooting for you!!
Having been an RN on a cancer unit, and having administered lots of chemotherapy, please take care this summer and take it easy. Take Piper for walks when you can and cuddle her alwaysđ. Much luck and love from North Carolina.
đPraying for strength and comfort for you. Offering 24/7 support as a retired nurse and 28 year ovarian cancer survivor (also at young age). Questions, or just unloading on a stranger, because sometimes we worry about protecting our loved ones. đđđ
You have got this. Itâs hard when things you donât expect to slap you in the face do and itâs so insightful of you to know that itâs okay to not be okay. Cancer sucks, but you are going to kick its butt â€
Jess had the cancer removed, she has said in her last but 1 upload, she hasn't got cancer now,the chemo is just precautionary.
Hang in there, Jess. You can do this. If you feel like you need a mood lift, just watch Piper for a few minutes ... puppies are simply warm, snuggly, goofy love that is good for you! As a medical professional for many years, I am totally impressed with your medical team. Now, you just need to work on them to allow your "emotional support puppy" to accompany you to your appointments. (Just kidding ... but it's fun to think about how sideways Piper could make appointments go.)
Hang tough Jess ... you can do this. Reach out to someone if you feel you need help. We all need a helping hand from time to time. Prayers and love to you, your family, and your medical team... and your puppy, too! â€đŸ
Well said and I completely agree! There is nothing like a soft, warm, cuddly puppy (or kitty!) to help you through tough times. And her needing walkies will help keep you active and moving too.
Sending you (and family and Piper) lots of love and prayers from Colorado.
Your strength astounds me, youâve been so positive and upbeat through most of this, itâs normal for there to be down days and thereâs nothing wrong with an occasional wallow, I think we all need it every now and then. The news of the side effects of the chemo was a lot to take in, not only is there the possibility of all of the typical side effects of the chemo but learning of the possibility of hearing loss and lung damageâŠthatâs a lot to take in. You are an incredibly strong and brave young woman and youâve got this. Lots of people are pulling and praying for you and will be here with you every step of the way. I wish you the best results. đđđŒ
Jess, we are all here to listen just as if we would do for someone who is going through a loss. Your reactions and feelings are so normal. When you lose someone you are in shock then when everyone leaves reality sets in. When you found out you have cancer you were in shock and when all the appointments, treatment are set you know what your future brings. We all can understand and will be with you through this journey. Prayers and hugs coming from Minnesota. â€ïžđ
Jess, Please consider making Jesus your best friend during this journey. Talk to Him and share your feelings, your fears, and your blessings. He is always listening. Most importantly, believe He is able to heal you, whether it is through a miracle or by way of causing the chemo to work. Please give this a try. Prayer works and He is there for you.
Jess you've been through a lot and heading to the second part of your treatments. You have every reason to have one of those days to let loose with tears. Cancer as you know isn't easy to except or deal with. You have thousands of people who are behind every step of your journey. You've been strong and need to have one of those days here and there. Stay strong Jess as much as you can and try to keep that positive attitude! đ
Jess, I have two rare illnesses. Iâve only been following you recently. You are very strong and sometimes we hold it together for as long as we can and then we break down and let it all out. Totally natural and it still shows your strength. You said you didnât do anything all day but you did! You released anxiety and stress and fear. I wasnât surprised you said you slept. You are a warrior and youâve got this. I wanted you to know you werenât alone. We will keep fighting together. We will break down and then pick ourselves back up and keep going. It isnât easy. Sending you healing peace and energy.
Hey Jess, have to admit I teared up when your mom shared a bit about the appointment, we all just want to hug you and make it all go away. Feel what you need to feel sweetie, you are an amazing person with a soul that is timeless. We are here to listen, while you share this challenging journey, share no more than you are comfortable with. Sending you healing energy through prayer, and â€ïž.
Jessica honestly since Iâve started watching ur videos ur name and resilience have become synonyms in my book. And I promise u I feel it in my heart that u have a lot of unexpected good news and happiness waiting for u I am in no position to dictate ur feelings I just want u to know that itâs going to get better and I know these words sound empty but honestly I pray with all my heart that you get those blessings and those happiness very soon. U are so kind and u radiate so much positivity and good vibes this is gonna sound so cringe but u remind of the rainbow after heavy rain. Thatâs what ur gonna get very soon I know itâs dark but ur sunshine is right around the corner Itâs gonna get better ameen just hold on
No wonder you were feeling so overwhelmed gess you got sooo much dumped on you at one time. I had no idea your type of treatment could affect your hearing or breathing. I am so very glad you have great doctors you can trust. And I am really glad you have Piper to help you deal with what you are going through.đ
My big reality cry happened in the shower. It was a good release, and then I got busy working my way through chemo. A lot of us here completely understand.
Youâve got this! We are with you every step of the way! Always in my thoughts and prayers!!!
Jess, you are totally okay having as many days as you need to. This is tough stuff. Thank you for giving us the honor of walking as best we can with you! And you can brag on yourself all you want to! You have handled this like a trooper! Praying for you.
I took my sister to chemo regularly. She said to me that in the darkest times she had some of the best times. It was a weird paradox. She made chemo buddies in the infusion room and there was so much laughter. Yes, some awful side effects too. Though when she rang that cancer free bell she had the biggest grin. Because I was her sister I got to hear the complaints and woes, (hey, thatâs why Iâm here!) but I also saw her friendship and laughter. Hang in there. Look for the glimmers of light. And give yourself grace. If you need time for rest while on chemo, take it. Your job right now is to get better.
Chemo buddies that make you laugh and feel good, through it all are the best!! keep them for company if you find them!! they are a great help, n matter their age!! There will be good and bad days, just let take them a day at a time!! đ take it from a breast cancer patient, going on my 5th year cancer free!
It is kinda like trauma bonding, going through chemo with others, and the relationships that ensue. Things are a lot more "real"... you are both vulnerable and fighting a life threatening illness. In a short time you confide and talk about deeply personal things... including some things that can be too painful for your loved ones to hear or consider.
Jess, feel like you feel when you feel it. You are correct, one day at a time, one hour, minute, second. Whatever it takes. We are here and praying for you and your family. You are amazing and an inspiration to us all. â€ïž
đđŸâ€ïžđ„°âšpraying for you.
I love hearing you discuss this hard time in your life. I got a bizarre rare disease diagnoses and now am having a skin cancer removal as this is a risk of the drugs I take to control the rare disease. But a huge difference is Iâm nearing 60 and feel like Iâve had a pretty darn blessed life and am blessed with great family and friends. Itâs always hard for me to hear of young people struggling with health issues because it reminds me of how blessed I have been to hold out until 50! Keep on going. Rest when you need to celebrate the good days and rest during the tough ones you are a great example to others! (Even if youâd rather not be)
â€â€â€
Thank you for letting us in on your private moments. đđđđ
It's ok not to be ok crying helps hugs and prayers
Awe sweetie, you can feel whatever emotions you want, this is a lot for you, I canât imagine doing this as an older person and you being so young thatâs alot!!!! But you have an amazing support team that will help and be there for you, never be afraid to reach out to them, even if itâs just to sit looking at the scenery, and you got this!!! Show that cancer whose boss!!! I know that they got it but still you are strong, beautiful, confident!!!! Sending lots of positive energy to you and your family!!!!!
Jess Iâm so sorry. My sister got diagnosed with stage 4, not curable, colon cancer in 2017. She is still taking âtreatmentsâ (chemotherapy) every 3 weeks and is doing good. The biggest thing is no negative anything. That has really helped her and taught me as well. We live half a country away from each other. When we do get upset, we tell each other and get it out of our system, support each other, and move on in life. We donât watch news or are around negative people or negativity in general. Life is bad enough sometimes. Itâs okay to have bad days, get upset, sleep in or take naps. You do the best you can to get through. I hope this helps. Keeping you and your family in my prayers. đâ€ïžđ
Yes! Wise words
Hugs and positive vibes Jess. Tears are a great stress relief as keeping the worries buried inside can wreck havoc on your body. Thank you for keeping us updated on your journey. â€
Big hugs to you x
Hang in there Jess.
You are a woman!! Therefore you are inherently STRONG!! đȘ You've got this girl!! Chemo won't kick your ass, you'll kick it's ass!!
I'm sending you healing Reiki and good vibes!
Jessica with you about to start chemo. Your body is going to be real tired. You might want to go by your DMV office to pick up a form to get a handicap placard. You might not need it. But its better be safe!
You got this! Praying for you!
Jess never think that doing nothing is a bad thingâŠ. Doing nothing is what you need.. Rest and healing. You have to deal with so much but youâll get through it. â€ïž
I'm glad you KNOW you can FEEL your feelings †It's OK. But I'm also glad to see you giving yourself Grace. đâ€đâ€đ
Jess , you do whatever you need to deal with this and get your mind and body balanced. if your having a crapy day call it out please don't try to bottle it in ...if your having a good day we are here to jump up and down with you in joy .. I know we are strangers to you but you have captured our hearts and we are here for you !!!
I think you have a great attitude and know your up and downs are normal. Itâs not good to hold everything in. Let it go and carry on. Praying đ for an easy road of treatment and hugs to you and your family.
Hang in there sweet Jessâ€. You have a loving family and thousands of your online community cheering you on!! Sending prayers to you! đđŒâ€ïž
Good morning. Keep fighting, this to shall pass. Praying for your strength and comfort
â€
Please post another Amazon wish list

Fear of the unknown is one of our biggest hurdles. You are going to have many waves during this journey. The key to remember is look to into where the waves are coming and decide whether to jump the wave and relax or to dive into the wave to keep yourself from getting crushed. Itâs a rhythm of nature that takes a lot of intuition. My Dad grew up swimming in the Ocean, he taught me that waves come in sets. The waves start lower and then build into larger ones. The larger ones require us to swim towards it to decide whether to jump or dive this can be totally scary until we learn the rhythm, the battle is to learn how to ride this time in your life without getting sand up your ass. I hear CBD can help in all kinds of bad side effects. I am praying you sail thru this like the champ you are.
You are amazing. Thank you for being so vulnerable and brave in taking us along with you. Sending strength from North Carolina.
Having cancer you turn round one day and find your life is suddenly running on a parallel track to where you were, you can see your own train but you're carriage isn't part of it any more. Add to that all your parameters close in, how much you can do, what you can cope with, how you can deal with things. It gets better slowly, but chemo is hard work so hang in there and take one day at a time. And apparently, mangos are supposed to be peeled like a banana !
Hang in there. Seven years ago I went in for colorectal surgery and got my permanent ostomy. It was a bummer but I am still living. Prayers for you.
I call days when I just can't grownup "hitting the wall" you just kind of feel like you've been slammed and can't move and then the emotion that needs to be dealt with erupts. Embrace those days you need them as much as you need awesome days!!!
Jess, you young lady are a ROCK STAR! I follow your Mom, after Dr. appt on monday I think, I kind of figured everything just hit you and you handled it so well I'm proud of you your so mature for your age and have faith and confidence you moving forward from this. Stay strong and remember one day at a time. You've got this. Prayers đâ€ïžđđ«
Jessica, I know you are a strong woman. This will be a challenge but just remember God will never give us things we can't handleđ so just know we are all cheering you on. Know you are strong!â€đđđ
Youâve got this Jess!! Youâve got so many people praying for you and your doctors for a success in treatments and complete recovery that it only bodes very well for you!!! đđđâ€ïžđđđ
I'm not sure why so many people are saying, kick cancers ass,you've got this you can win it...Jess already had the ovary taken out with the cancer cell in it. Chemotherapy is just precautionary jess said,she doesn't have cancer now,she said in her 1 but last video.
Hi Jess, if you'd get really sick from chemo then moxabustion might be helpful. It's acupuncture combined with moxa (the smoke and heat of chinese herbs). Every good (Chinese) acupuncturist knows moxabustion.
Rooting for you from Belgium.
PS: mind over matter đ
Jess, you are in my prayers every day. I am a two time cancer survivor and thanks to my family,friends and God I survived. You have an amazing family and so many supportive people you got this girl. I will continue to pray for you and your family.
I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer when I was 24. I was away at university at the time, two states away from my family. The first thing I did was move back home. Thereâs nothing like the support and love from family when youâre going through a major life event like cancer. You definitely should feel free to vent here on your channel, Jess. Know that so many people - myself included - are rooting for you. And Piper is adorable! đđ
You are a fighter and a warrior†Thank you so much for sharing your journey with usâ€Praying for your health, safety and well-being†that you are cancer free asap and that it never metastasize nor spread anywhere else, and that it never comes back. God bless you and be with you and all your families, friends and loved onesâïžâ€ïž
Sending â€â€â€â€
Ah, Jess, you've got it right - you will have ups and downs as you move along this current part of your journey. Please wallow as needed and as much as you want! †We're all sending our best supportive vibes and prayers to you and the rest of the Brock clan. I'm so grateful you've got a wonderful circle of support surrounding you with your family and friends... Lean on them when you need it. And of course, me and everyone else in your virtual circle of support. đ Hugs and love from down here in Summerville, SC. đ
Your attitude is perfectly fine. You went through so much in a short period of time, that it was bound to hit you when you had a moment to contemplate it all.
Try not to worry about college, it will still be there when you are ready to go back.
Please know that all of us will be with you in spirit as you tackle this final phase of treatment. Hugs and prayers from Maryland.
â€
We are all here to support you. Praying for you.
It is so good your trying to stay positive going into this. Your a trouper. Prayers coming â€
Keep that positive attitude! You have all of our prayers going out to you. đđ»đ
Jess , when i was having cancer i told myself one treatment down 4 to go , 2 down ,3 to go. Every hour that goes by is one hour closer to it all being over. You are young, strong and you will come out the other end so much stronger. In 10 years from now it will be a distant memory. One you wont forget but one you will be better for. I send hugs to youâ€
Just always remember that all of us cancer patients respond to Treatment differently most of the time. Sending prayers đ
Jess, may you have more good days. Keep a journal of your appointments. It will be helpful to document everything. Prayers for you everyday to give you strength to get through all of this. â€ïžđđ»â€ïž
Jess, I love your perspective that life sends us difficult circumstances. One day at a time, we can get through it.†Much love and prayers... and puppy â€ïž lovesđ
"The harder the conflict the greater the triumph" - George Washington
I am so sorry you are having to go through all of this. You will have ups and downs with all that your body is going through. Remain gentle with yourself, rest when your body is saying to. Please know that even though you have not met most of us writing to you, we are all pulling, praying, sending positive energy to you. You've got this.
Our grand daughter was 3 when she was diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer,she was on cysplaton as one of her chemo drugs ,she did end up with needing hearing aids but she 9 now almost and cancer free,I got this girl your a warrior and strong !
Jess
Your feelings are valid. If you need to cry....cry. Expressing your feelings will keep you mentally strong during this. I think you are a Rockstar! I am praying for you, and I know that their are thousands of prayers are beings sent to the heavens for you each day. We love you. Sending lots of hugs your way.
I remember not too long ago how I would anxiously wait on a video from your mom because I love her, the sheep & entire family, but then you came along & started your channel & sharing your life story with your cancer & everyday doings. Now I anxiously wait to see your vlog, because I am truly worried & concerned for you!
Jess, you are a SUPERSTAR! All through this bumpy road with your cancer & all you have had to deal with each & every day, you still manage to smile. You still manage to speak with encouraging words. Even when you are a little down, I see the warrior coming out in you.
Jess, you encourage me with your videos. If there is anyone that can whip cancers ass, hands down, it's definitely YOU!!!
KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT, SOLDIER!!
Your friend
Barbara
Thank you for sharing your journey. I am a registered nurse who is fairly new to working in an oncology clinic where I administer chemotherapy. Iâve been so inspired by people who come in and get treatment and then go on about their life but I donât get to see behind the scenes, and I just appreciate seeing your story and other people going through this and Allen so much more stories, and it really helps me to understand and empathize more when new people come in . Iâm rooting for you all the way â€
Are there meny cancercecec?
Keep your head up girl! Sending so many good vibes your way. You got this!!!! Lean on your support team!
You are so bright and cheerful through all you are going through.. Love Ya lots Jessica..â€
đą
Jess, I have been battling lung cancer for over 8 years, your feelings will come in waves & your feelings are valid! That chemo regime sounds rough & my †goes out to you
Jess- you are the epitome of resilience. We are all amazed that you haven't crumpled to the floor in a puddle before now! And Amen to you for holding your own as long as you did! Like you said it's ok to have a down day.There may be many times come and It's ok. Wishing you the best. You will come through this whole experience no problem. â€â€â€
As a cancer survivor x2, I appreciate the roller coaster ride you bare currently going through. There are many of us out her sending you good vibes and love.
Stay strong đȘâ€ïž
Jess - I am approaching 79, and have never faced anything like you are looking at. I truly value you sharing, and every time I see you post I just can only wonder at your maturity and strength. You are truly a wonderful young lady and I pray that you have a wonderful result on your journey. You have a wonderful family and a great dog! Love and Hugs to you!
Jess, just be you! There will be good and bad days...know that you have a great family AND a great CZcams family and we all have your back!
You have the best attitude. Given the cards you have been delt.
I definitely understand what you are saying as one of my sisters had a breast removed back in 2002 when she was 49. She made it. And you are a brave girl and as difficult as it is, you can do this. We are all here to help you and listen to your concerns. Love and hugs to you dear.â€ïžđ„°
That salad reminds me of my favorite Summer salad
A Watermelon salad. Cubed watermelon, cucumber sliced and quartered, 1/2 cup feta cheese, 15 torn mint leaves.
Dressing is half and half lime juice and honey.
As far as your treatment goes. Take it one day at a time. By the time the first four weeks go you'll have a better idea how you're reacting. I'd be asking of those who did the same treatment, what was the percentage of side effects that happened.
And what happens if there is side effects, do they half the doze? Ask whatever questions to your Drs that come to mind.
Hang tough. Girlie, lots of people sending you good vibes and prayers.
Whatever you are feeling - good day - bad day - be free to express yourself. You are mature and have a good grasp on reality. You are a "family member" we support from afar. Many hugs! Cathy
Sending you all the love and prayers as you fight this disease. Praying you do not get sick from the chemo. Cannot wait to see you ring the bell at the end of the summer!
â€đđ€
Jess has already said she doesn't have cancer now as it was taken out when the ovary was removed, the cancer cell was only inside the ovary. The chemo is just precautionary!
Jess, I donât have cancer but I do have other health issues and let me tell you, throughout all of this process you have coped amazingly well, one day of feeling bad and blue is remarkable. You are such an upbeat and positive young lady and Iâm sure your family, friends and community(not to say your mums community) are remarkably proud of you.
It is ok to have the odd off day and what better place to vent that than here? We certainly wonât judge you for it. Look after yourself Jess and I hope that the start of your treatment goes well with as few side effects as possible x
She is having doubts because she should , the treatment for American cancer does not cure just makes you sicker it poisons the body, you are never the same ,hearing loss and heart damage are expected outcomes. Not something she should do,radiation is worse takes out your immunity,other diseases take over, thyroid is knocked out, the esophagus is damaged.should take the least damaging approach.Naturopathic healing is best.
Holding a good thought for you Jess!
You have just the right attitude - positive when you can, feel your neg. feelings when necessary.â€
Keep putting your feelings out about what your going through it will help get you thru your journey. Always here to listen been on that cancer journey before.
Jess, your editing skills are great! I liked the transition part you did to signify going on to your appointment and waiting. You are a good story teller. Your editing showing you making salad and talking, with edits inserted of you drawing out your treatment chart was nicely done too. I am impressed!
