    What a pretty, smart and healthy looking young lady! She did the right thing - as young folk heal faster than older people.

    I got my cancer diagnosis over the phone too! How cruel of the medical establishment…My mother died of endometrial cancer 4 yrs. before I was diagnosed with the same grade, stage and type of cancer. I thought for sure I was also going to die the same way my Mom did. Thank God I am cancer free 14 years now. God bless you for sharing your experience. ❤️‍🩹

    My father died from stomach cancer. He suffered physically and emotionally. It was the worstexperienceof my life. Whatever a person can do to prevent suffering from cancer, do it.

    I don’t believe the age limits when it comes to any kind of cancer. I believe that there is no rule when it comes to cancer! I’ve seen so many stories about docs telling patients that they are too young for a certain type of cancer and then that person end up getting it anyway😞 I believe these doctors really don’t know much about cancer!! Cancer is so relentless and unpredictable😢 My dad died from lung cancer at 47 and I am terrified that I am going to get it and I am 42 right now😞

His wife is dedicated to cooking a few different meals so he’ll have a choice each day depending on how he feels. Warmest wishes for a long healthy life! Keep smiling!

    I keep thinking about how medicine is really improving and helping cancer patients. 20 years ago my husband had stage four lung cancer wasn’t anything they could do to really help him survive no mini stage four lung cancer patients are getting cured and living a full life. So hopefully with your situation medical knowledge will come through to help you really get past this situation

    Dont think insinuating that needing/taking anxiety medication is a "bad" coping mechanism is particularly helpful or accurate. There is obviously an excess which can be a problem, but taking anxiety meds as prescribed is helpful and nessecary for a lot of people and there should be no shame in that. Also not all anxiety meds are created equal buspar is not nearlly as addictive as Xanax.

    I am happy for her of course but this story does not give hope to those who weren’t given a heads up before they got it. She was lucky that she was being watched in a way and so was able to catch it at stage 1, but I feel this is very sad and takes the hope away from people who are diagnosed later.. because “theyre just gonna die”.
