About Our Discussions: At Chronic Love, in collaboration with our generous featured guests, we share candid discussions about living with chronic illness with the intention of showing the humanity, the wholeness of life impacted by chronic disease and chronic conditions. We hope that these conversations can offer a needed counterpoint to the often sterile portrayals of illness and treatment in the service of helping those living with illness to feel less alone; to offer supportive others a lens through which they may more sensitively meet the needs of their fellow humans with illness; and to raise awareness, curiosity, critical thought, and contemplations of change as we lean into issues that impose further hardship on humans living with illness.

This is my story! In 1980 at 27yrs I got uterus cancer and I was strip of all female parts. 1984 I got breast cancer and I had a complete mastectomy. I went through hell but I made it I got implants and so 2012 I got colon cancer and I was so done but nope and I’m 2015 I got stage three Melanoma and I’m still alive! So ladies don’t give up!🙏
Robin here. Sharon!!!! That’s too much cancer for one person. I’m so sorry that you’ve dealt with so much and for the past 43 years!! Holy moly, you are the ultimate inspiration!! Thank you so much for sharing!! Any pointers or life lessons you might offer up for those who need to read even more of your words? Sending you healing wishes and oodles of 💛
Well there were times when I just wanted to die because of the pain I had in so many ways. But I knew that I couldn’t give up because I had eight kids to raise and so God got me through everyday and I’m a fighter and I’m 69 years old and I’m still here fighting With Melanoma. But my advice to all of you going through this . Please Believe! Because even though you are so sick and so tired and trying to be a parent or etc.
Don’t give up and just remember Prayer 🙏

Ok 2:20
Yes and let’s thank the sister for actually sharing this with us. Especially as she wasn’t ok like your husband was at the time.
My partner had back pain and a cough. He thought it was CV19 related. He started losing weight. ER. Chest xray. Left lung encased in fluid and flattened. Liters of fluid pulled off. 2 weeks in hospital. Adeno carcinoma, Stage IV. Non-smoker. Now chemo. He is 57. He shares your story. Praying for you and him.
We’ll be holding your partner in our hearts as he fights this devastating disease. Sending you both so much 💛
I hope they do biomarker testing. It’s essential to having more treatment options. ❤
So sorry x sending love and hoping your partner gets well z
🙏🏾❤️
Praying for him Denise and you as well
I also have lung cancer and have been fighting for nine years. I was diagnosed at stage four as well. Thank you for sharing this story.
Rhonda! Fighting stage four for nine years? Thank you for sharing. Your words, your fight will offer so much hope for others. May we ask how you’re doing now? Sending you so much love and wishes for continued healing 💛
Thank you! In my journey I have had a lot of success with the medications given to me as they have worked longer than expected. The most recent one just stopped and they are trying to figure out what to do but they first have to get the results of the most recent biopsy I had. I'm a firm believer in prayer and a good attitude. What is surprised me most is it sometimes people that you think will be there or not and those that you don't expect who will step up. Don't lose heart no matter what happens!
Your words are so true. We are hoping that your team is able to find a good next medication for you that carries you until the next and eventually a cure! A big warm welcoming virtual hug to you, Rhonda 💛
@@rhondabarger4927
You should give extended water fasting a thought!
@@rhondabarger4927May I know what medicine you are taking?
I also have stage four lung cancer Jaymie thanks for sharing your story. You are so strong and you inspire me. Blessings to you and I thank God for his grace and mercy. I was diagnosed June 14, 2021 and was told I had five years, but by the grace of God I went and had a second opinion, and was told that I was stage 3B and it was curable so I am holding on to God’s hand and fighting this fight and thanks again for sharing your story. God bless you and much love.❤
Robin here. Erika, thank YOU for sharing your story. Thank goodness you were able to find out some different news in that 2nd opinion. It sounds like you’ve got this fight!! YOU inspire US! Thank you for your sweet message. I know Jaymie deeply appreciates all of the love and support. We’re sending healing wishes and so much love right back your way 💛
@@chroniclove Thank you so much 🤍🙏🏾💪🏽🥊🙌🏾
Sending lots of love your way love!!

The young woman with ALK positive, stage IV lung cancer said she doesn't want to sound "privileged" in her walk. She needn't worry. She sounds blessed, despite her circumstances.
Toni, your words couldn’t be more true! TY for watching and for your comment!! Sending you 💛.
This kind of Peace, Comfort and JOY ONLY COMES FROM OUR LORD!!!!!!! AND SAVIOUR!!!!!!! JESUS!!!!!!! CHRIST!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!! JESUS!!!!!!! CHRIST!!!!!!! For BLESSING! this young woman and giving her that PEACE and JOY and COMFORT!!!!!!! THAT ONLY YOU!!!!!!!! LORD!!!!!!! JESUS!!!!!!! CHRIST!!!!!!! CAN!!!!!!!
GOD BLESS!!!!!!!
Thank you for sharing your story. Although I was diagnosed at 50 years old with Alk Positive lung positive, my diagnosis was similar - never- smoker, active, no drugs, alcohol, hardly any symptoms etc. Stay positive. You look great!
@@lauriehigashi5308hi I’m an ALKie too. Diagnosed at 44, in the same month and year as Jaymie. 🫶🏾🤞🏾some day a cure!
@@chroniclovehow is Jaymie now?
This is my story. 38 years old perfect health. No prior symptoms. June 23rd, I was admitted to the ER due to migraines while at work. I blacked out in the parking lot while waiting on the ambulance. I woke up in the SCIU after undergoing emergency decompressive brain craniotomy surgery for a brain tumor. I stayed there for 9 days. I was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and brain metastases. The cancer spreaded to my brain. I was told by the surgeon i stopped breathing for 35 minutes before having to be intubated. I completed 5 days of srs brain Radiation in hopes to remove the small amount of tumor the surgeon wasn't able to remove. It's been 74 days now and i started my first round of chemotherapy yesterday. My first two infusions went great. It was my 3rd infusion of Toxal medication where I started to experience shortness of breath, chest pain and throat locking up. 25 minutes in the infusion they has to stop it. I must say that over the 74 days, I've experienced no cancer symptoms, thankfully. I dont know what my future holds, but im trusting God, no matter what
Oh my, you have been through it! I want to jump through this screen and give you a big hug. This awful disease. You’re officially in our hearts and minds and we’re loving on you, hoping for this disease to stay at bay. Sending you a big Chronic Love welcome and oodles of love 💛
Wow, I’m so sorry, that sounds so shocking and stressful. You never had any shortness of breath or back pain or anything?
🙏🫂
Wishing you the very best. I hope you're still doing alright. Let us know. 🙏💫💖🌱🌎
Definitely want you to do a video. I too have cancer. Bilateral Breast cancer and I did my mastectomy in March 2021. I have no breasts. I was shocked when I learned this year that it was stage 3 all along I thought it was stage 2. Had symptoms in 2020 and got the results in January 2021. I was 47.
Just to look at her, you never know what a person is going thru. Sending health and healing energy to her❤
Nurse here: I can't tell you how many times patients have told me that statement that people have said to them: "Just to look at her, you never know what a person is going thru". But if illnesses had a look, we'd catch diseases faster. I understand what you're saying though, still, it should tell us all to listen to our bodies, and not what we look like in the mirror. Stay safe.
Absolutely ☝️💯
When my 28 year old daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer I would go to the city with her for chemo. A couple days after we would be out sightseeing and having lunch. It was surreal. On the outside we looked like a carefree mother and daughter to anyone but on the inside we were going through so much trauma. I've learned not to judge so much or be envious of people because you don't know what their life is really like. And Jayme don't ever feel guilty that you are living an ok life. No 30 year olds should ever have to deal with cancer. None of us should but we are all entitled to our good days.
☝☝☝️💯 Thank you for sharing, your words couldn't be more true. Sending you and your family so much love.
Very true ey.
My Dad passed away 3 weeks ago..he was diagnosed in new year 2023 with stage 4 lung cancer..passed away less than 5 weeks later 😢 it was too late for treatment.Sending healing hugs to you and all suffering right now x
Erin, we’re so deeply sorry for your recent loss of your father to this terrible disease, and so soon after his diagnosis. How are you holding up, if it’s okay to ask? We’re sending healing hugs and so much love your way 💛
I am so sooo sorry for your loss Erin! i am praying for your strength
@Chronic Love It sure is. He was unfortunate as it was detected much to late. My aunty also had lung cancer last year..twice but now has the all clear and is very well. As a family we are getting through but of course I'm really missing him and the memories we had yet to make x
@@erin6238 So sorry for your loss. Do you know if your dad or aunt ever had Covid?
My dearest Erin
My condolences for your loss. I lost my husband to Stage lV small cell lung cancer. He lasted for 6 months from when he was diagnosed. He passed away 01/01/2022.
I know what you went thru and seeing your love one sick with no improvement.
I wish that with each passing day, your heart heals. It will be difficult , but please reach out to family and friends. You will need that support. Blessings to you.
I stayed engaged her entire storytelling. She’s so easy to listen to
Ty for leaving this note, Jeri! Sending💛
Thank you Jeri!
I am blown away at Jaymie’s positive attitude, her bravery, her intelligence, and her generosity to help others under her circumstances. I’m SURE she’s helping many others and just is not aware of their individual stories. God bless her. I pray you are cured. Humanity needs people like her.
So true!! Thank you for your sweet note 💛
Absolutely!
She's definitely amazing.. Wow❤
@@chroniclovethis happen awhile back so what happened to Jayme did live?
Hi @Joy! Thank you for checking in on Jaymie. With Jaymie’s consent, we can share that she regards her status as “unremarkable,” meaning she is stable with no progression. If you’d like to follow Jaymie more closely, we encourage you to check out her channel @wjmsmedia. Sending 💛
I'm so grateful I found this channel. I was diagnosed over two years ago with ovarian cancer. Stage four. It had spread to my stomach, lungs n lymph nodes. Therefore I also have a chain link of tumors in my neck. I am 52 now, a mother ,a grand mother and I do not want to die already !!! I can't do this alone anymore...
Jeannie! I'm so sorry that you're dealing with this awful, scary disease. Of course you don't want to die!!! We welcome you here with wide open arms. Finding connection, especially with others who can have a bit of understanding, is so important. Sending you oodles of 💛 and a great big virtual hug.
So sorry to hear this. Praying for strength
🙏🙏🙏🙏
oh Jeannie, I am so sorry to hear of your diagnosis! You are not alone, ever! Jesus stands at the door of your life and knocks asking you to learn of Him by reading His Word for yourself! "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, *_AND LEARN OF ME_* for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." *_~Jesus_*
Jeannie, the Lord is standing by waiting to give you strength. Call on Him when you think you can't go on, and he will be your strength. May God bless and keep you, in Jesus name.
Jaymie you're the sweetest human being I've ever seen. You got this girl. You're an inspiration
We couldn’t agree more! Ty for your sweet note!! Sending you 💛!
@@chroniclove thank you for replying sweetheart
Our Lord is holding you tight, and he won't let you go. You got this Jaymie !! I'm sending you Lots of prayers 🙏🏻 and ❤️ !!!
Her beginning symptoms sounds like Asthma.
P
I have had cancer since i was 15. The spindle cell sarcoma was in my leg twice then moved to my lungs. I was stage 4. Plus i had cervical cancer when i was carrying my son at 19. Im 45 and last year i finally have no signs of tumors or growths anywhere. 30 years i have been fighting cancer and i am still kicking. Doctors said i should have been dead my 16. I also decided to follow my guts and not do what the doctors wanted me to do. That would have killed. To anyone out there dealing with cancer. You can heal yourself and keep going. You are here for a reason.
Teddie! It sounds like you’ve dealt with quite a bit of serious health issues and since you were so young!! Only you, in and after consultation with your team, can make the best decisions for yourself and it sounds like you’ve done that. Thank you for sharing. Sending you wishes for an easier time and better health from here on out 💛
Teddie you are awesome!!!! Wow! - Jaymie
That's wonderful to hear...my son has synovial cell sarcoma.....he's doing now.
What did you do, what was your diet and what were your treatments?
She spoke so well and looks so healthy I wish her all the best
Sudden illness is hard, the worse part is not knowing. You are not feeling well and you go to see the doctor and they sometimes do not do what they are supposed to do. Good luck my dear.
I feel like I mat a long lost sister. :) I have been battling cancer since 2011. I was 37 and although my type of cancer is rarely terminal, the after effects of the treatment keeps me in so much pain on a daily basis that sometimes I wish it had been terminal. I'm just so tired of the pain and the appointments and the judgements from people who have NO idea what I'm medically and personally going through. My heart goes out to you all. I would love to talk to any of you. :) BIG HUGS!!!!
It sounds like you have been going through it! And for a while now! We’re sorry that your treatment has left you in so much pain. We definitely get what it’s like to feel misunderstood when coping with the fallout of cancer. It’s tough. Thank you for sharing. Know that you’re not alone in any of these experiences. Connection with people who "get it" is so key, especially when you find yourself bumping into people who really don't. Whether it's in forums like this, in in-person groups, wherever you can find it. It's just so important to have people in your life who can validate how real and hard this is. It's just a world less hard when we reach to find compassionate company. We’re sending tons of 💛and great big hugs your way, Angela!
So sorry 😞 Prayers 🙏 A big hug to you🫂
Don’t worry about what others think about you, you know what you’re feeling is real and only you can give yourself compassion and comfort. Sending you love and light ❤
Sending love and prayer to you!!
🛐🙏🏾✝️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Prayers going up for you dear.. I pray that you will be healed.Amen.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I pray that Jaymie is continuing to do well. My dad had a chest cold in early winter 1996. After it hung on for a month, and got worse, he went to his doctor only to be told he had bronchitis. In early 1997, he went back again and was told he had walking pneumonia. No chest xray was ever ordered, and my dad was old school and never went to the doctor, so you know he had to be hurting. By June, he was having lower back pain and trouble walking. He went back again and was told he had a pinched nerve and needed PT. August 2nd, he couldn't get out of bed. His wife got help and took him to her doctor that did a chest xray and discovered lung tumor the size of his fist. Admitted to hospital on a Friday, on Monday afternoon he was told to get everything in order because he might live a month. His CA has mets to his bones from his skull to his lower leg, had taken out two lumbar vertebrae and part of his hip. He went home on August 9th and passed away on 8/17/97. It took me a couple of years to get accustomed to this, but I went back to college when I was 47 to become an xray tech. I worked 16 years in cardiac cath and helped numerous patients live after a heart attack. I held families when their loved ones died in the lab. I lived for my dad, and I never let a doctor I worked closely with keep information from a patient. I can't believe there are still doctors like Jaymie's and my dad's out there.
Robin here. Pat, I’m so sorry you lost your father to this terrible disease and after two docs had opportunities to order further testing, to possibly save his life. Or at least to give him more time. To give you more time. I feel your pain, your grief in your words. This world needs more healthcare providers like you who care on such a deep level for the families you serve. Thank you so much for sharing your story, for joining the conversation. It is really upsetting that these things still happen, that your father’s experience of docs not ordering chest X-rays was so similar to Jaymie’s experience so many years later. We need this to change. We’re sending you a warm welcome to this community. Sending you wishes for continued healing, so much warmth and love 💛
Pat i am so sorry to hear about your father! That is awful that it went on for so long. SMH! Doctors like mine are very common and that is the saddest part. :( People like you are the bright spots in the industry and I thank you for that!
Jaymie, your cat knows what's going on and it loves you. Pets are great therapy to help you get through situations like this.
💛
So true...I am going through a difficult time in my life and my 8 year old cat is very clingy to me lately.....she is even looking at me a little different....concerned.
Lol Sam is so spoiled!
That is true my cat skittles she nows when I am sick I have been feeling sick lately going to doctor on August 1st. God bless you sweetie get well soon. I am a Thyroid stage 4 cancer servicer you will be a servicer my prayers are with you.
The doctors let her fall through the cracks, but God is bigger. Praying for her!!!!
💛🙏💛
Amen to that God is King ❤️
@@Tondaloona03 While this isn't intended to be a religious space, we deeply respect all the ways people need to find hope and comfort, whether people give their focus to science, religion, both, neither, or more. When people share hope through their religion, we see this as a deeply kind gesture.
@@Tondaloona03 Fair. Only you can decide this. We only ask for mutual respect and kindness in this particular space.
@@Tondaloona03 it's a test from god, and if god is testing me then I want to be the most patient loyal subject. This life isn't forever, and it helps knowing this isn't our final resting place. This is my thought process as a religious person. I understand and respect, your, resentfulness? But I only ask for the same. We don't just believe in god when he gives us good things.
I was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer ALK mutation non smoker. Just like her, it takes months for the doctor actual diagnosis me with stage 4 lung cancer. I had to go to er for the second time and demanded additional testing. They were about to discharged me with the inhaler. The doctors were shocked to see my pet scan lighted up like a Christmas tree. Cancers were everywhere in my body, lung, abdomen and neck area. I probably dropped dead if I did advocate for myself.
Thank goodness you advocated for yourself and you’re here to talk about it!! Thank you for sharing. Unfortunately, stories like yours are all too common. Sending you healing wishes and tons of 💛
What were your symptoms?
It is SOOO important to fight for yourself. These doctors literally do not see you! its awful. i am glad you did that and that you are still here!
It is so sad when WE need to DEMAND what tests we should have. These doctors seem to just brush you off and send you on your way if you do not advocate for yourself. On February 1, 2023, I had a thoracentesis to remove fluid from around my right lung. One liter was collected. For about 2 months before the procedure, I had a cough that will not go away with wheezing. I am now going for a CT scan this month for a dry cough I am still having with wheezing. I hope it is NOT lung cancer, I do not smoke, do drugs, etc. I just turned 62 this month and am scared to death. I also have congestive heart failure that has taken 25 pounds off me without my even trying. Thank you for allowing me to rant.
The elephant in the room, no one addressing, what jabs have been taken?
My mum was diagnosed with Lung Cancer April 2000. She died Jan 2002. She was 61. We were told she had months but lasted much longer. Stay strong. I’m sure that’s why she lasted longer. That and our fantastic health system and palliative care here in the UK. Sending positive 🙏
I’m so sorry for your loss of your mom but happy she had more time with you than they thought you’d have! Thank goodness for your wonderful healthcare system over there. Thank you for sharing and for your sweet note 💛
I was diagnosed with nodule melanoma last year, it already spread to my lungs, stage 4 …..I had this what I thought was a blister, it stared to bleed, still I didn’t go to the dermatologist….when I went I finally went to shut my husband up…he nagged me to death to go to a doctor, then I got the call no one wants, she said it is a fast moving, aggressive….they did the deep and wide in a hospital, put me to sleep, then 2 days after pet scan, doctor said it sprain to the lungs, I had about 3 months, doctor put me on immunotherapy…..a year later I am in remission……don’t know how long I have, but they say how long I have….I am 75 yrs old…after the panic and crying all day….hey I already lived past anyone in my family….
Robin here. Thank you so much for sharing your story!! And thank goodness your husband nagged you to get checked out. When news like this drops and time in front of us instantly seems to shorten, it can just be so scary and awful and difficult to wrap our minds around. I don’t care how old we are at the time we’re diagnosed. We’re all too young for cancer. Sending you so much 💛
Hey its Jaymie. I am so sorry to hear that we have this terrible diagnosis in common. I am glad you are in remission though! Years ago, immunotherapy was not even a concept. So keep that positive mindset, who knows, we might be on the verge of something even better!
Jayme seems like the friend we would all cherish, love and be grateful to have! ♥️
Robin here, your words are spot on!
So true....I so hope she'll have a long life.
Thank you everyone!!! ❤
Yes, she is positive and is humorous, you wouldn't believe she had any health problem. I wish and pray she lives a long and happy life.
My Uncle was recently diagnosed with stage 4.. Praying for Jaymie and all that are battling this. You are not alone..🤎🤍🧡🖤
Sending so much love and healing wishes to you and your uncle 💛
praying for your uncle and for you
Thanks for all the prayers.. 🤗He's choosing not to do the chemo.. but he's got the whole family around to keep his spirits up and make sure he's on track with meds and NOT having any pity parties.!! I chose to say he's living WITH cancer- not dying from it!🙌🏾
You absolutely don’t sound privileged. You sound super intelligent and highly aware and just because you are privileged to have those attributes doesn’t mean your light should be diminished in any way!
All the best for your journey ❤ You definitely got this
Thank you so much for this sweet message. Jaymie really appreciates all of the care and kindness when she has a chance to check this space 💛
Hey - Jaymie here. thank you for those kind words Sarah! I am so glad that people resonated with that part. I wanted to be very careful how I worded it to be sensitive to others.
The world is privileged to have you here my love x
Very humbled ❤
Thoughts and Prayers to everyone going through this kind of grief. I lost my Father Dec 2022 to lung cancer ( non-smoker) then my 1st cousin in January 2023. It's a reminder to me to start making memories and cherishing the life I have. 🙏
Robin here. I am so sorry that you lost your father and first cousin so recently. Grief is tough. I was recently watching the show Three Pines, in which the main character says, “Grief is just love with no place to go.” (It seems Jamie Anderson deserves due credit for these powerful words). I hope you can find a path to healing in your own time. Thank you for your sweet hopes and prayers for everyone, for sharing, and for joining the discussion. Make those memories. The present is what we have 💛 We warmly welcome you to this community. Sending you lots of love.
Oh wow!! Such loss in a short time, I am so sorry Nix! I am sending strength and love your way
I’m stage 4 breast cancer. I have been living with the disease for 11 years. I’m on falsodex injections, Herceptin, Ibrance, and femara. Yes it’s a lot but I’m still here. I’m
Working full time and living my life. Jesus has truly been merciful to me. Ladies don’t give up!!!!!
Vikki!! You’re a beacon of light and hope. Thank you for sharing here. Sending you love, a great big welcome, and wishes for continued healing 💛
Hello. Same as myself. I tripped and fell at work, ended up getting a ct scan and found out I had fractured ribs as well as lesions in my breast, spine, kidney, liver and pancreas. Took a PET scan and found out I have stage IV metastatic breast cancer. I am on Letrozole and Kysqali. Thank GOD for that fall. I pray for all individuals living with this disease. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I don’t know why this came up on my feed but I’m glad it did. I got diagnosed 2 days ago with secondary lung cancer and I’m still in shock. Watching this at this point in my life has helped me. Thank you for sharing and I really wish you all the best ❤
We are sending you love and strength as you navigate your own treatment and journey. We’re happy we found you and you found us. Welcome.
What were your symptoms?
I just the same 😢
Keep the faith. My Mom just passed from lung cancer she had stage 4 and lived almost 11 yrs. God bless 🙏🏻🕊️
Kelly, Robin here. I’m so sorry that you lost your mom to this terrible disease. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m certain that people will find hope in your note, in her story, knowing that she lived beyond a decade with stage 4 lung cancer. Sending you healing wishes and lots of love 💛
Your spirit is amazing 🤩 I know she's definitely in a better place. She lived those 11 yrs to the fullest too. I had a NDE when she was first diagnosed in 2009. I didnt know if there was a place we went to after death until I had the NDE. I saw my deceased grandma which is my mom's mom. I also saw Tons of shadows of souls but I could only recognize my grandma. I know now I will see her again. I have no fear of death. Best wishes to you.
💛
😩why did this show up on my timeline, I have bad health anxiety and I’m trying to recover now I’m freaking out about every thing. I hate cancer, I wish it didn’t exist. God bless you all.
So sorry to give you more anxiety! This is just meant to help people who really need to see it. Sending you 💛
I think on some level we all have that anxiety. What is important is that you don't let it paralyze you from getting help when you need it TiaMarie! Stay strong and I am happy you stumbled on this video
May God, the Divine Healer, deliver her from this cancer. My mother died from lung cancer and she never smoked. Second hand smoke killed her. I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, went through treatment to transplant and maintain with small dosage chemo pills. Happy to say that I've been in remission for over three years and my oncologist has given me an excellent prognosis. God bless. .
We’re so sorry for your loss of your mother! Thank goodness for your remission. Sending you wishes for your continued healing 💛
Jaymie, It's not fair that you have to go through all this, but you're not going to be a cancer statistic - you'll beat it.
I'm sending you the best wishes possible from Australia, and praying for your complete recovery. ❤️
Robin here, just wanting to say thank you for your sweet message!! Jaymie is checking and appreciating the love as often as she can. Sending you 💛
Amen
Your story reminded me of my sister story. She was diagnosed at 48 with stage four lung cancer. It was in her uterus, lymph nodes, liver, and blood. Probably symptom was a backache. Five days later, she passed away from a blood clot. We had no time to get a biopsy, prepare to help with you. Any medical procedures, or even palliative care. I hear the gratitude in your voice. And I’m so happy that you have all this time. And I hope that medical science will continue to give you another year, and another year, and another year, until you’re a little old lady, saying that long cancer finally had a cure. I wish you peace on your journey.
@Fourth Girl, Robin here. Thank you for joining the conversation and for sharing your family’s story, your sister’s story and your extremely kind words. I’m so terribly sorry that she was taken from you so abruptly. I only wish you had that same time with her that you’re generously wishing for others. A warm welcome and lots of love and continued healing to you 💛
We lost our best friend to lung cancer. He was in Viet Nam and handled Agent Orange. Also he smoked, so that didn’t help either. He got a bad cold, had pain in his back and then was diagnosed with cancer. He tried everything, but was too far gone, when he found out. We miss him so. He always would answer “just peachy” when we asked him how he was, followed by a big smile. We will see him again. He was a Christian.
That’s so heartbreaking. We’re so sorry for your loss of your best friend, that he too was a casualty of the destruction and devastation caused by our use of Agent Orange. Sounds like he tried to keep a smile on, even when it was really tough for him. Thank you for sharing 💛
I love that, especially living in GA - Just Peachy! May he RIP and thank him for his service and sacrifice! - Jaymie
Wow, thanks for sharing Jaymie, your positivity is truly inspirational.
You're so inspired and helping others by telling your story. You are a warrior. Well wishes and prayers to you as you continue to fight in this journey. Thanks for sharing your story ❤
The incompetency of doctors is astounding!!! How did they fail this woman over and over?
It’s deeply upsetting and all too common 💛
I have to take partial responsibility for my ignoring the symptoms but yes agreed! - Jaymie
It doesn't shock me at all I'm home almost died last month on air at home and dismissed like a low down DOD I would say dog but animals today get better treatment than women of color it's true it's in our minds and we're ageable now everything but treatment we're supposed to have thank you My brave young lady for sharing your story!!
You’re so love lovely! Just had a total left lung removal after immunotherapy and chemotherapy! Am so grateful am now cancer free!
Jan! We are grateful you are cancer free too 💛 What amazing news. Thank you so much for joining the conversation and for sharing. We are sending you so much love and wishes for continued healing.
@@chroniclove thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your openness Jayne!! I wish you well!!
Sending many prayers her way, what a great interview, she is so eloquent and well spoken, many prayers Jaymie
Jaymie you are amazing!! I am praying there is a remission in your cancer!! You are strong and brave!!
Feel like there was no empathy for her diagnosis. I just pray for her complete recovery!! ❤
So do we 💛🙏💛
What a sweet, pure soul. I send you so much love and prayers.💕
I had 2 uncles and an aunt on my mother’s side who were diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer,all were smokers.A weird coincidence happen my aunt on my mothers side and a cousin on my fathers side both were diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer both were 67 both died on the same day,I hate cancer.May they RIP🙏🏾.May God Bless and keep those with cancer❤🙏🏾
So much lung cancer and loss in your family! We’re so sorry. We’re sending you lots of 💛. Thank you for sharing, for joining the conversation.
Oh my goodness. I am so sorry, that is a tough family history. Please Please Please take care of your self and make sure you and your loved ones are checking in regularly with screenings etc! - Jaymie
did your aunt on your mothers side and your cousin on your fathers side smoke?
Smoking is one the worst things you can voluntarily do to your body :/ It's the cause for so many illnesses incl. Cancer; sorry for your family loss and please implore any family/friends to quit although it is their decision of course 💛
Your story reminds me of my mothers story. She never smoked a day in her life and she lived a straight and narrow life and was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer June of 2019. She remained positive until she took her last breath Oct. 16, 2022. I admire your positivity. Praying for your continued strength. GOD bless
As Jaymie says, you only have to have lungs to develop lung cancer. We’re so terribly sorry that you lost your mother to this awful disease. We’re sending you a warm welcome to this community along with love and healing wishes 💛
My Dad had cancer that spread all over his body. He died only a year after being diagnosed. I spent as much time as I could with him while he was here. God bless everyone going threw this 🙏
My mom didn't have cancer but she had asthma n chronic bronchitis n she never smoked a day in her life. On the other hand her 2 sisters were chain smokers with nothing wrong with them. She could never understand that. All I could say ro her is life isn't fair. In the end.she died.a horrible death fighting for every breath. I remembered thinking I wish my aunts could be there to see what she had to go through!
@Nancy Jones I was there with my Dad till his last gasp of air. It was kind of frightening a little. His last breath was literally like a deep breath like going under water in a pool. The hospital made sure he was comfortable with an open line of morphine. The bad part was they gave the family the button. It was very hard for me to push the button. The nurses ended up giving him his final dose as the family was surrounded him. The good die young is true. He was only 61.
Thank you sooo much for sharing your diagnosis story with the world. Your story will make a difference with so many folks!! Stay strong, sister.
Ty for your sweet note! Sending you 💛!
Dear Jaymie. My thoughts and prayers go out to you. Keep up the good fight. Thank you for sharing your story.
Hi Anne, thank you for your prayers and for your sweet note. We know Jaymie will appreciate seeing it when she checks this space. Sending you 💛
Greetings from England.
Best wishes to both of you lovely ladies. Jaymie, you are an inspiration.
Thanks Jaymie for sharing your story you are an amazingly strong and inspirational woman, wishing you every blessing and I hope you’re doing well with your treatments xx
Sheila! Thank you so much for watching and for your note! Sending you 💛!
I've dealt with several chronic (and one rare) conditions for 34 years. Many docs, some awful and a few wonderful. Many hospitalizations, invasive tests, etc...some helpful and some made things worse. The point about what the doc says and what the patient hears is sooo valid. I'm still here largely because I refuse to say die! But all the advice about advocating for yourself is impossible when you feel like crap and no one takes you seriously, especially male doctors. Sadly, Jaymie's story isn't that unusual. I hope she continues to feel well!
This is one of the most amazing interviews I’ve seen. To feel so much gratitude when you say that you don’t feel pain.
Ty for your sweet note. Sending 💛
Wishing Jaymie all the very best in her battle. Her positivity and attitude are really inspiring.
Couldn’t agree more 💛 Ty for your kind note.
This was great information regarding lung cancer and how doctors don't want to tell patients the truth about their diagnosis as well as treatments available for them in the earlier stages to get treated for cancer. It is quite understanding to be devastated by bad diagnosis when it took two additional doctors to figure out your situation that the first should have done in the beginning.
so strong, positive and pragmatic Jaymie, I wish you all the very best and many good years ahead xxx
Ty! Sending you 💛!
So wonderful to hear Jaymie’s story and her beautiful acceptance and peace. Thank you. I’ll be watching. God bless
💛
I’m praying for complete healing for you jymie!! I’m praying without ceasing for you any and everyone who going through this or anything!! Stay strong god has you all!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
💛🙏💛 thank you, Shirley!
I so wish you well. Your attitude is flawless. I lived with my mates spouse from his diagnosis untill his death at90! He almost never had an event, untill years and years after his stage 1V diagnosis. He passed away from age more than cancer.
I hope a treatment is found that can keep you going for many many years,the world needs you🥰.
I gotta say I’m definitely sending love to this lady with so much grace.
You speak with such confidence and positive attitude, so admirable!
Jaymie thank you for sharing your story! Thank you for shining a light on how we must advocate for ourselves. It's so disappointing to hear how dismissive were the medical professionals who failed to diagnose you before you reached such a critical situation. Live well.
💛
I hope your path continues to be clear. Our thoughts are with you. Thank you 'Chronic Love' for sharing this journey. Stay safe, All.
Ty so much for your sweet message. Sending you 💛

It’s somewhere in all of us 💛
Thank you guys very much for bravely sharing your journey. Many will feel inspired & strong due to this.
Insist on an x-ray. I was given an x-ray as soon as my doctor heard I had coughed a spot of blood up. ( I had mentioned it to a friend even though I didn't think it was a problem, myself, and she insisted I go to the doctor asap.) The tumour was removed, I got chemo, and am in remission now.
Hindsight, my friend!! I know now to ask! hah.
x-ray does not always show fluid nor cancer
