It makes me sick when i see those nitwits at The Met Ball or on the red carpet at Cannes wearing a pair of sunglasses that cost more than a six month deposit on a new place for Shonda to rent . The injustice in the world is appalling .

Jealousy. You don't know what sickness some people on those carpets are going thru that they don't want the media knowing about. It is their money. They aren't obligated to share it bc a lot of them worked hard and happen to end up successful. You don't know what charity's they donate to. So stop being so bitter

Yeah but what you want them to do just give away their hard earned cash? They earned it. Don't have to like it but they earned that money and it isn't anyone else's but theirs. I agree it's disgusting to spend that type of money on frivolous stuff. But it's theirs and they can do what they want. Don't ever expect anybody to pay your way in this life. Never.

How is that injustice?? The Hollywood girl lived a different life, that led her a different direction. I’m happy for her. I also feel sorry for the lady with cancer.she seems like a beautiful soul. I hope both will chase Jesus, and all will be well.
I am too struggling with stage 4 ovarian cancer the past 3 years. I too have all the same side effects and in a wheelchair now from neuropathy. Stay positive and strong, you need sleep to help your body heal. Antidepressants help with the depression which can be overwhelming most days. Treatment is on going for me to extend life longevity……..I am still here fighting.

This woman is tough as nails,don’t give up don’t surrender! You got this!
My heart broke when she said she was afraid to fall asleep. My prayers are with her
Bless her heart. When she speaks of her 9 year old grandson helping her, it just melted my heart as I also have a 9 year old grandson. She's been through so much but determined to keep going. Ovarian cancer and chemo are no walk in the park - my daughter went through it 4 years ago. If you see this Shonda - please know that there are people out there that care and are praying for you! ☝️🙌🙏❤️
So sweet at the end Mark, you, say darling to Shonda. What a Sweet person Shonda is . Really enjoyed a window of her life story. God Bless Shonda
I so hate this strong lady is having to go through this fight, it's simply not fair at all! Cancer sucks big time!!! I really hate that she's had lasting issues following each of her treatments. Sending lot of prayers her way for healing and continued strength. Mark, it's people like this that could use your help. It's so sweet to hear her talk about her grandchildren and how proud of them she is. I'm sure she's pretty special to them too.
Dear Lord: Please help this woman. Amen
Considering EVERYTHING this women has had to deal with and IS dealing with, she looks good for 51. Geesh. Prayers sent to you. God bless and God speed!!
Shonda I wish I could give you the biggest hug! I’m praying for you and your family. Thank you for sharing the most intimate events of your life with us. God Bless You
Shonda, Im so sorry you have to endure cancers. Keep your sight on the beauty of each day, keep moving forward. Sending love and many prayers.

You have this, young lady. I went through radiation, chemotherapy and immunotherapy. My prayers are with you. Stay strong.
Listen to the beautiful birds singing to you. May God Bless You
Sending you positive energy and light dear Shonda. Mark, please keep us updated. I had ovarian cancer and it is super scary, it took over 2 years to fight. I know how the compounding bad news can be overwhelming, but keep smiling beautiful! You are making an impact on this world whether you realize it or not.❤

@@mddell58 I just looked it up, numbers for 2023 were about 2790 new cases of invasive breast cancer and about 530 will die from it. I know there are many people who think that men can't get breast cancer. From the Breast Cancer Research Foundation " About 1 in 883 men will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. While that statistic may not sound as daunting as the equivalent for women-- 1 in eight will be diagnosed in their lifetime. The fact that male breast cancer is so rare makes it uniquely challenging"

Some people do well with chemo, others get all the terrible side effects and spend their extra days suffering. When cancer is advanced it never seems worth the treatment. I saw enough as an oncology nurse.

Shonda's doctors are not giving her optimal care. They should be giving her medication for depression as it is common with cancer treatments. I had a complete hysterectomy when I had uterine cancer ( early stage). I suffered from endometriosis. After the surgery, I felt so much better. I still have NOT experienced hot flashes. My grandmother died of ovarian cancer and it is a very painful cancer. It is very hard on the human heart. I stay on top of my mammograms because breast cancer is genetically linked to ovarian cancer.
Prayers for Shonda, may your luck turn around for the good
Sending you love and strength Shonda ..🩵
Rhonda, you should be proud of yourself! Beautiful woman! God bless you and keep you! Jeremiah 29:11

Shonda, NEVER forgot..... When you feel like no one is around, & yoù need comforting, there's ONE who will NEVER leave you .... God/Jesus is already by your side. He will always hear you, & He will always be riģht near you. May God bless you each day, & give you peace beyond understanding.

"And the peace of God, which surpasses ~ALL~ understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." ✝️ ❤ ✝️ ❤ ✝️

Her tumor was so rare that her dr, at a top hospital in kc ks, uses my grandmas cancer in her teaching classes.

Sending all healing energy to Shonda! Cancer is a fu++er. This just brings home how access to healthcare affects all our lives. I grew up with ready access to care and trust for medical professionals. I just wonder, given her genetic history of cancer in her family, if Shonda lived in a place with greater resources, she would have been tested sooner. Ugh.
Dear Lord, we all take life for granted until we face death and then time grinds to a halt. Then we see and appreciate those small things that bring us joy we’ve ignored for so long
For those who and trust in the Lord shall live forever! ”Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.“ 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
My friend went to the doctors every week for a year. Complaining about pain and a lump in her breast. The Doctor basically said she was crazy. They told her to relax. Last month she died of breast cancer. What do you supposed to do I know doctors aren't God? Doctors have a practice And they try their best But basically what they do is practice
God bless with healing and comfort in JesusChrist. Hallelujah. Amen.

I wonder if not going to the dr. in over a year could be a reason why it had spread so much by the time they found it…? It is hereditary but maybe routine dr. exams could have helped.

God bless her heart!! I know so many women are dealing with ovarian cancer than ever before, it makes me grateful for the endometriosis I had when I was 30 that forced me to have a hysterectomy. I tend to blame the processed foods in our country... Americans are the some of the most unhealthy because of what our country "allows" that other countries have the sense to ban.
