Such a lovely young woman. So humble but her strength is readily seen!! I pray my daughters grow up to handle things and have future outlooks as you do. I've lost so many people in my life to Cancer. I'm an MRI Technologist AND people like you always made me check myself. You're a beautiful and valuable INSPIRATION❤😢

So true. ❤

Jess, I am so proud to be a part of your vlog crowd. you are such an inspiring young lady. thank you for allowing us to nose ijto your cancer journey. love to you aND YOUR NEW PUPPY. You are so courageous and brave.

Your mom was a rock. A mother's love is something you can't deny. I'm so glad that you & your family are close knit, that's a huge help. I will continue to pray 🙏🏻 that all your tests from here on out come make showing no I'll effects & no new cancer 🩷

Your comment about needing patience really touched me. I am on immunotherapy-no where near as intense as your chemo-for stage 2c melanoma. I am a very active 55 year old previous pediatric nurse and giving myself grace and keeping patience with both myself and my husband has been difficult. Much love to you, your family and your medical team.

Jess, As a mom of three adult children. I can definitely say your parents wouldn’t of wanted to be anywhere else then by your side. My kids are my world and can call me day or night and I’m always there for them. I’m also excited for the book club. I was a reader my whole life. But kinda lost interest lately. So your book suggestions will be really helpful. I’m so glad your starting to feel better.😊

Ditto. Nothing like a new series and the smell of books to bring back that interest 😊📖📚 Maybe we try it?

Same. I have three adult daughters and I would certainly be no where else but right there with them. Like when they were little and sick with a fever I wouldn’t leave their side or sleep til I knew the fever went down regardless if were the middle of the night. Sometimes sleeping next to them in case they needed me.

Aloha Jess, I am very proud of you. i am a 44 year cervical cancer survivor. I had cancer at 17 years old. My books helped me so much. i am glad you are starting the book club. It should be fun!! Congratulations!

I couldn't be more proud of you if you were my own daughter! Brave girl. Inspiration. Bold. Fighter. Strong. Real. Hopeful. Amazing. Patient. Blessing. Just a few of the many words that describe Jessica Brock. I love you and will continue to pray for you. May God's hand be upon you always. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏

You are badass!!! You’re so young and wise, and STRONG 💪. The fact that you felt empathy and sympathy for your parents’ journey to help you, shows what a kind, well-raised person you are. Trauma and hard times really do make us stronger…that invincible feeling, proud of you for earning it! But so sorry you had to go through such pain to do so. Your family dynamic and support system is what many of us wish we had. You’re going to do lots more amazing things. Congratulations 🎉

Jessica I am so glad you have come through your chemo. My daughter had stage 4 colon cancer unfortunately her chemo didn’t help. God called her home in 2021. I have been praying for you since I heard about your cancer, I will keep praying for you and your family. 💖💖💖💖💖

Im so sorry for your loss💔 God be with her, you and all your families,friends and loved ones🤍 fuck cancer.

You are such a special person, I had cancer in my left lung and had to go through chemo and radiation treatment, I never got sick or lost my hair so I am so proud of you for what you had to go through I will be praying for all of us that had to go through it all that it never happens again ❤❤

Jess, You’re wise beyond your years. Thank you for educating us on your journey. May God Bless you and your family.

My husband and I have been praying for you and your family. I have been a sub of your mom for many years and love her so much. I am sending you a big hug and I have been so proud of how you have handled this ordeal. You are a real champ! ❤

Jess, you are such a beautiful person. You were beautiful with your hair but you are just as beautiful without it. Even when you were at your worst you still had a special sparkle.

Jess, you are truly inspirational. What you have gone through, no young woman of your age should have to go through. You’re just five-ish weeks older than my daughter (she turns 21 this coming Saturday) and it just makes you more aware of the gravity of your illness in someone so young. Your parents would have swapped with you in a heartbeat if it meant that you didn’t have to go through all that. Keep being you, Niki 🧡

Jess you sharing your story, bad times and worst times with some laughs too; has been so touching. The strong positive woman you are is an inspiration. You have shown that in toughest times, rely on those that love you and do not lose yourself in the details. Peace and love to you and the family. Everyone has been through such a significant experience.

FROM ONE SURVIVOR TO ANOTHER... You did it Jess!!! I am SO proud of you!! Way to slay it girl! Love and continued prayers from NC, USA

Thanks for the great commentary about your experience, Jess. ❤ Indeed, patience, along with grace and compassion for yourself and those around you are critical while getting through the gauntlet of cancer diagnosis and treatment. I'm far enough done with my own cancer treatment that I'm regaining some capabilities and confidence with myself, especially around some of the permanent changes that came along with surgery and radiation treatment. I've found that also acknowledging that grieving permanent losses is part of recovery has helped me process within my own headspace as well. Hugs to you and your family, Jess! 💞And anyone else who has endured or is stepping through a medical/mental challenge. 💞

You look so peppy. Hope you are doing so much better. You are amazing and glad to hear treatment is over. ❤ By doing these blogs, you are reaching so many people who are wondering what they might go through being told they have cancer. You are letting them know that they are not alone, there are ways to cope and how to deal with it. Kudos to you.

Cancer does absolutely SUCK! You and your family were amazing through your treatment and I wish the best for you! Thank you for sharing! I purchased the book for your book club!

Our cancer stories are similar. Mine was caught early also and I too had preventative chemo. Your journey was way more arduous than mine. The worst side effects was one of the drugs would make my throat close up if I ate or drank anything colder than body temp. I had a few episodes and they were terrifying. I also had to skip a treatment, I also had to discontinue one of the drugs towards the end of my schedule. Thankfully it was the one with the throat closing issue. It was causing my neck and face to become numb. Watching your journey made me appreciate how lucky I actually was. Mentally it really was a challenge and to this day, almost 7 years down the line I still have PTSD issues. Shortly after my diagnosis and surgery, we were hit by a Category 4 hurricane and my home flooded. I still had to continue my chemo treatments all while having to deal with FEMA, builders, lack of supplies, and trying to repair my home. I guess it helped me put one foot in front of the other and kept me from getting bogged down in my illness. Now 7 years later, life goes on….I still get yearly scans and visits with my oncologist. The scan fear is still very real….I don’t think it ever goes away. Just take care of your mental health as well as your physical health. The PTSD is very real. I amazing it will be worse for you because your treatment was so much more harsh than mine. I hope that when you reach your 7 year remission, you will have put all this behind you and will be living life to the fullest. Bless you Jess for taking us on your journey and giving a face to cancer. It can be beaten, and you will get past this. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Wow, I bet that was terrifying. Glad you’re in a much better place now.

It was indeed helpful to me to understand a little bit more about it so I can be more supportive of my niece who has just been diagnosed with cancer. Thanks for being so strong and informative and mature about it, you are a super strong young lady and I pray for continued freedom from this nasty disease!!! 🙏🙏🙏

I agree Jess, frustration is so hard to deal with. My husband was so strong and kept so much to himself. He was a real foodie and the loss of taste was so frustrating for him especially as I kept whipping up new dishes in the hope he could taste it and bless him he never complained or got cross with me. Positive state of mind is so necessary to get through chemo for everyone involved. You are so strong and wise beyond your years. You have nothing to apologise for. 🥰

Такая умненькая девушка ! Я смотрю , как она мужественно проходит испытания судьбы , борется за каждый миг своей жизни и не унывает !!! Хочу пожелать тебе милая Джессика идти вперёд , бороться и побеждать .!!! У тебя сильная поддержка , верные друзья , ты справишься !!!!

You are amazing and so strong, so happy for you to be over the chemo. Sending long distance hugs and prayers!!

I am a mother of girls about your age, and a fairly recent follower of both you and your mom. I can tell you that I have followed your cancer journey from the beginning, and my heart has gone out to both of you. I know that when my kids have hard times /crises /illness, etc., there is nothing harder for a mom. Their worst days are my worst days, and I want NOTHING more than to make everything better. To think of how scary and sad this time has been for both of you, to see you now at the other end of treatment, and to see your strength after going through something so hard, is such a big deal. Blessings and prayers are still coming your way as you all heal and recover from illness and trauma :) xo

Thank you for sharing your experiences. I’m sure that it will help others as they face similar journeys. Love that you shared your experience with your bald head and empowerment ❣️ You are such a beautiful woman with a strong sense of self. I’m going to be 58 in October and I have learned so much from you and your journey.

You are a warrior. Going through this is hard. Props to your parents for helping you. They will always be by your side

I have only seen bits and pieces of your journey through your mom’s KZread videos. After running across and while watching your video, my mind kept drifting to the thousands of people that are in that terrifying and bewildering place between diagnosis and first treatment. They are searching all over the internet trying to find unbiased answers to the exact questions you addressed. Your straight forward Q & A format is a genuine service to all who find it. Cancer fights leave people wise beyond their years, congratulations on the the courage to make the content and prayers for a happy and cancer free rest of your life.🙏🏻

Hey I had the same treatment but a different journey! I was 22 when I got diagnosed and finished it in November 2021, doing just fine! I discovered it with the only symptom - my period being just a little late - decided to do a pregnancy test which came back positive because of cancer.. based on a follow up ultrasound my doctor thought it was an ectopic pregnancy and they did an urgent surgery - then the surgery results confirmed it was a mixed germ cell type of cancer... I had my 2nd surgery shortly with my right ovary removed and a part of omentum, then I finished off with 3 rounds of chemo.. recovery is the toughest and most beautiful experience I've had - I never felt so alive and healthy and strong no matter the circumstances! What helped me the most is working out, walking, chores (moving a lot), taking care of my diet and visiting other non-cancer related specialists due to self care... even if you're not based in Europe, you're welcome to join Youth Cancer Europe discord community and seek the support, it helps a lot and people are sooooo so so nice and out of this world... hang in there sister 💞

Thank you!!! I do not know anyone who has had cancer. Letting me be a fly on the wall during your experience and seeing things from your moms point of view was reassuring for me. When we see the number of cases that there are I feel like the hammer is going to fall on me or someone I love. I can now look at your experience and see it is hard but people do it every day and get through it. Best wishes for you and your family and friends who were so important and there for you.

I just want to say that you felt bad for your parents when you were sick. I just want to say it was not your fault you got sick. There is no reason to feel bad for your parents as it was not your fault. You are so blessed to have such great parents, and such great support.

We love your spirit and sorry you had to go through this thank you for sharing your life with us. I had kidney cancer in December of 2023 thank you for helping all of us with the journey

“I am so much more than my hair “ Powerful words from a strong woman ! Nice to see and hear you Jess … thank you for sharing your journey with us and for keeping it real ❤️ loved seeing you ring that bell !

You are such a strong young lady! I admire how you, and your family handled your journey💗 You are amazing!

I have watched this family for about two years. I absolutely love them all. I absolutely love how Jess has handled the Cancer news like a champ! Such a Trojan. I do realize we did not see the ugly of the ugly, but I do realize she did not want us to see that. On parents side they let us see some of the worry. Poor Sandy did show some tears but what Mother could not. She is not a stone. I love you all. Thanks for sharing your intimate moments and allowing us a peak into the life of cancer. Love you all!

Jess you are absolutely amazing. You are such an inspiration to people of all ages - and I’m 64! Thank you for sharing this journey. I am in awe at your positive attitude, cheerful disposition, even when you felt horrendous and your kindness in wanting to help others throughout your illness. I wish you all the best of everything for your future and send love and good wishes to you and your family because you all deserve the best 👏👏🏆💕😊

I can see this beautiful young woman writing books, speaking tours and creating support groups not just talking about cancer but on empowerment. Jessica you are so beautiful and wise beyond your years. ❤❤

I found your mom on KZread and was enchanted watching her raise her lambs and sheep. I’ve never been on a farm, and only have seen a lamb at the Children’s petting farm at our city Zoo! Then your mom is sending you off to college and suddenly the world stops as she slowly shares your illness. Then you picked up your story, and shared the details of your cancer diagnosis and treatment with us. Your answers tonight were so powerful, just like you! You are an inspiration to everyone of us, young and old! Keep up the vlog as you are such a sweetheart!❤❤ Love from one of your many fans!!

Wow! Awesome video! I worked pediatric oncology for several years and so much of what you said would be verbal gold to the adolescent patients. We would remind families they are kids first and cancer patients after that. You do ROCK a bald head and your confidence shows. Thanks for the labor of love these videos take to help others! All the best to you! ☺️🤗🙏🏻

You are truly beautiful inside and out , and you have shown other people that you can get through this .now is your time to let your body heal ,then enjoy your self you have earned it. Xxx

Farm kids are typically tough. as a farm kid, chemo vet you are gonna be TOUGH. So excited to see you healthy and slaying.

Really enjoyed your answers to the questions some of us fans asked you. What I got totally out of this video truthfully, is that you were, and are totally OVER Cancer for now! And if for some reason, it comes back, you are a STRONG and YOU will win again!!! Your Mom was so worried for you and even had tears at times, and your Dad stayed steadfast with you AND your Mom. I was happy some of your friends were able to come and see you and bring you up to what was happening, or shall I say....Gossip!! Please take care and enjoy, what you can, being at home for awhile. Maybe...you could even stay over at Jacks' house for a couple of days, depending on his schedule. Always thinking of you in prayer and may God continue to bless you on your journey of life.

You have no idea how much good you are doing for others who are facing similar situations. Letting them know what to expect is just huge. Bravo!

Jess, as a cancer Survivor remember, " I AM WOMAN, HEAR ME ROAR !!!" YOU did it. I was praying for you to draw strength from the Lord. Congratulations You won the battle and finished the war GOD BLESS YOU ❤

Thank you for sharing your journey. The part to be patient with yourself is still applicable. Listen to your body, rest when your tired, get well soon. ❤

Thank you dear Jesus for answered prayers. Please continue to watch over and protect Jess. You are a champion Jess!!!

It's incredible how you shared your journey to help others. Being real with the highs and lows that you went through. You are powerful sharing your story! We need more young women in this world like you ❤ I'm so glad you are on the other side of your treatments now

Hope you are starting to feel much better. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Sending you hugs from Maryland.

So interesting to hear your perspective, Jess. Keeping you all in my prayers as part of my family! Can’t wait for the book club. Loved Love Theoretically. She was a new author for me and I’m now reading The Love Hypothesis. Look forward to your recommendations.

Jess, you are right. I doubt much will phase you after this. I speak from from a slightly different experience. My oldest son died unexpectedly at 4 months. I can tell you after that not much has phased me since. I am grateful for life, family, and friends even many years since. You should be very proud of yourself!

Thanks for sharing your journey. My mom was diagnosed last week with Ovarian Cancer and she begins her Chemo Journey next week after the holidays. Your channel and others have shown me what to expect and how to prepare my mom and help support her through this tough time. I've already ordered a bunch of things to make her a care package and hopefully ease her journey through this whole process. Thanks again, and congratulations on completing your therapy, wish you the best.

I was surprised at how my outlook on life and at life changed. I don't sweat the small stuff and everything is small stuff. That was a gift that cancer gave me. I live apologetically me!!

EVERY TIME I watch your videos, I'm like holy crap she is strong!!!! I went through my own health challenges as a teenager and young adult but after getting pregnant with my daughter, I went into remission. Unfortunately at almost 9 months postpartum it seems the disease is returning but I completely connect with your feeling of empowerment and owning your hair. I had half of my head shaved for regular neurosurgeries. every time it grew, I needed surgery. Big hugs to you ♥️ you remind me so much of your mom!

💜💜💜💜 hope your future journey is less stressful. 🖖

I definitely noticed how comfortable and confident you are. So much so that I was listening for you to say what made you such a self-assured person while going through chemo. I never dreamed that answer would be "I'm going through chemo"

You were so brave and positive through this entire journey. What an inspiration you are! 💕💞

Jess I don't comment often. I just wanted to say thank you Ms. Jessica Brock for sharing your story, being so open about the good and bad of your journey and I send prayers/good vibes of positivity to surround your health future. It's very commendable to see your family kick Cancer's a** together as a whole! I don't know your personally but I'd like to say your beautiful inside and out, good hearted people I believe will have good Karma come to them!

I am so proud of how strong you are. There were times that I just wanted to give you a hug. My mom is in chemo now, but she hasn't had all the side effects that you have had to go thru. I wish you the best and hope you can return to your normal life soon.

Really appreciate this, often you don't know how to help. If a visit helps, that's easy to do.

It was a privilege to have you share your cancer journey! Stand tall and strong and proud and know that you are supported and cared for! Keeping you all in my heart as you reach your goal of good health! ❤❤❤❤

I hope that if I ever have to face cancer, I can do it with strength like yours. Thank you for helping those who are going through this by your honesty.

! Go Jess!!

Thank you for sharing. You are helping to make a scary process less mysterious. You are helping people and will continue to help people who have to face this in the future.

Love you Jess for being brave and honest. Congrats on cemo being done and cancer is gone. Your a great person still sending prayers. Girl you got this.

It's really very kind of you to share your experience. It's such a difficult thing to go through and I know it feels horrible during the process. I hope your healing is rapid and complete, and that is the only time it is required.

❤ thank you for sharing Jess !

You are so much more than your hair! I shaved my head in support of a close friend that won her cancer battle and many folks thought it was a bad decision and kids would ask me if I am a boy because I had short hair. I had strangers ask me if I have cancer and my hair being short was due to illness. There are so many judgements and assumptions with having short hair. I do not regret supporting my friend and I would do it again. You are so amazing and I hope you had medical marijuana to help your chemo experience.

Ii, too, shaved my head in support of my cousin who was 20+ years younger than I was. Scarves and hats were fun to play with but I wasn't also dealing with the actual diagnosis of cancer and chemo. I went out bald at times, thinking I had a nicely shaped head. Surprisingly I didn't learn that I didn't until 16 years later! Oh, dear. I'm not sure, but I think it may have empowered me more than her. But it scared a lot of friends who would panic when they realized what was under my 👒 or scarf. It warmed my heart to learn how many actually cared that much. Thank you for supporting Jess and her family. I'm a sub too, and their well-being has become important to me. Edit: After she finished chemo and her hair started to regrow, I also let my hair grow out in its natural color for the first time in 40+ years and kept my pure white strip across my forehead finally.

Thanks for the info, and the inspiration!!

First of all, congratulations on getting through such a difficult period of your life. You did it with strength, grace, sometimes just by sheer grit. You faced what you had to do and you powered through. I want to know if any of your future plans have changed? Has this experience made you think differently about goals, interests, desires etc?

Don`t ever think you aren`t strong Jess, cuz, you are! You just took on drugs that kill everything good and bad in your body! Keep eating and doing great... I am sending you love and healing!!!

Going through something like this makes you stronger.

I’m glad to see that you’re feeling better.

❤ you're beautiful and so sweet. I'm sorry you had to go through all that

You are amazing and a true inspiration, such bravery ❤

Thank you for sharing your journey with us!!! 🌺💚🙃

I by chance came across your Moms channel and then yours. So very touching and how wonderful that you have shared your journey. You are doing a lot of good. Prayers for continued healing ❤

You are such an amazing person. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us.

Thank you for sharing. Your parents were amazing.

I loved your summary and can relate on so many of the points being a stage 4 ovarian cancer survivor myself!! I realized, as you did also, that you are stronger than you think you are. Looking back on your journey, you'll wonder how you ever finished. Whenever anything tough in life comes up, just remember that you tackled chemo and you can handle anything life throws your way. About 6 months after I finished chemo, my husband and I went on a cruise and we did this really hard excursion where we had to hike a few miles up a mountain to get to these waterfalls where we would slide down these natural rock formations. I thought I was going to die trying to hike up the side of this mountain. My husband said to me, "this isn't half as bad as chemo" and up I went and finished the excursion. Just remember that whenever anything rough comes your way. I'm so proud of you and I know you hear that from so many people. It's not a small task you just completed.

You are amazing!!!❤

You are a warrior!

You really are brave. Many prayers and blessings 🙏

Jess, I am so proud of you! You are such a beautiful, strong young lady! Thank you for sharing.

YOU ARE SO STRONG JUST LIKE YOUR MOM!!!❤

You went through some of the toughest chemo side effects that I’ve ever seen. Your right, once you have come through some of the worst life can throw at you, you are powerful. To see you come out of this with even more courage and and grace than you had before, just proves you will succeed on whatever path you choose. ❤

You are amazing!!

You are always in my prayers.

Jessica you inspire so many people by talking about your journey! I feel that it is the best way to go through this horrible disease. By being so openly verbal about "CANCER" it not only helps someone. But also it will help you to cope with the mental fear of a word that discribes an illness for which many have journeyed and few can openly verbalize. I found that saying the word was mentally liberating and it made people listen to learn what someone else is going through. September 25, 2023 will be 21 years that I heard "CANCER" for the first time, I did not have the support group that you had but I found that by verbalizing my condition some people were shocked, but a lot did listen and I felt better because It wasn't a secret in my head.💝 Jessica you glow with your strenght! 🤟🤟👍

Girl, you are amazing!

I've always thought of you as a pretty girl but, without the distraction of hair, you have been transformed into a true beauty. I love your strength and resilience. Rock on.

You are amazing!🤩

Thank you Jess!

I’m not good with words. But, I just want to tell you I’m so freakin PROUD of you! I wish I had the strength you have.

Chemo nurses are angels.

You are a brave young lady. I am so proud of you and how you battled cancer. keep up the good fight. Cheers!

Jess, you are such a strong young lady! I am so proud of you!

You are amazing!!❤ so love following!!

So proud of you! Everyday I looked to see if someone had posted how you were doing I'm so glad ya'll were keeping us updated. In all that you went through when I could see your sweet smile it always lifted me up because I knew you felt better. Continued prayers.

Thank~you for sharing your journey Jess 💜 Continued healing strength and energy being sent to you 💜

Keep fighting Beautiful Jess!!! You are so inspiring and helping so many ppl along this journey of yours. ♥️❤️🥰🥰😍😍

Love you Jess.
