- Chelsey Gomez was diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkin’s lymphoma at 28. After undergoing treatment she reached remission but after 3 months, scans revealed her cancer came back.
In this cancer vlog, Chelsey shares how she sought a second opinion during her relapse, after seeing a series of red flags from her oncologist like medical gaslighting and withholding medical information, how she processed her cancer relapse and her experience of undergoing stem cell transplant.
She now champions being a patient advocate and trusting your gut when it comes to your medical care. She also highlights the need for mental health support during and after treatment and the power of art and community in healing.

Sorry to hear that your cancer came back.
Prayimg for you sister.
The prayer of faith will heal the sick'.
Believe on the LORD JESUS CHRIST and you will be saved you and your family.
Call upon the name of JESUS CHRIST.
Read the Bible and cast all your cares upon Him for He cares for you.
He will send his word and heal you.Have faith in JESUS CHRIST.
Do not fear only believe that God is good.
Cancer is from the devil..
He has come to steal,rob and destroy.
JESUS has come to give you life and life abundantly.
Dear all my grandson Joseph Jacob was diagnosed with 4th stage cancer and was advised six months of chemo.
He started chemotherapy in the month of June.
Before going for the blood test God gave this verse.
"But if the Spirit of him that raised up JESUS from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
After claiming theWord.
The blood testwas perfect
After three weeks God gave this verse "Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way nailing it to his cross.
And having spoiled and principalities and powers,he mada a show of them openly triumphing over them in it.
After claiming this promise the scan report came cancer free.
Same to you all.

Ok, please don't be offended, but I HAVE to say something. You ARE an inspiration because you're gorgeous, strong & courageous! I've been really sick for a while, nauseated, almost nonstop, and exhausted & have just come in from having lab work that I really don't feel great about . I can tell you that I only hope to have an ounce of you within me if things go where I'm concerned they may. I just want to say thank you for everything because it does and will make a difference. God bless ❤🙏🏻
Chelsey, thank you for sharing your amazing survival story. This will truly help so many cancer ♋️ patients heal and move on with their lives 🙏 ❤️.
So pleased to know you are in remission . I wish you all the best 🙏🏾
9:23 "What am I inspiring you to do? Not die?" Luv it!
So glad you trusted your gut and made sure you got checked out. And I’m glad you were able to find a team that made you feel cared for. Definitely so true about the cancer ghosting, it really caught me off guard at first but just makes me appreciate who stayed around even more. Thank you for sharing your story Chelsey, wishing you well!
Thank you for sharing your story. I had a different type of tumor I still cant say the C word. Treatment was brutal, you are a brave, beautiful woman.
I just love your candid humor and realness - and was so happy you finally kicked that first doctor to the curb. It is ok to talk about cancer, it is ok to talk about all parts of it, it isn't all Hollywood sunshine. It does suck. And that is OK. Glad you are doing so well!
I had breast cancer. I know the loss of hair, but loved my various turbins and scarves! And I have to say, you are gorgeous! I guess I was so lucky I loved my oncologist! My late husband had multiple myeloma and had a stem cell transplant as well as a bone marrow transplant.
You are amazing! The «friends» whom cannot take you being ill, - let them go. They are not there for you now, then they will not be there for you an other time when life gets rough.
I am so happy for you having a living and caring husband. He sounds like gold! Not easy to be on the side, either. I Wish you and your family allergener best ❤️
i have my 12th chemo tomorrow for HL. my pet is already clear. it’s hard to be happy bc all i think about is that it’s going to come back
You have a beautiful soul, Chelsey, and I LOVE your artwork! Your daughter is so cute.
Prayers for you and your family. You are an inspiration to others.
Chelsea thankyou so much for your Cancer story. You speak from a very authentic place...your soul. I heard you loud and clear. I have survived Non Hogkins Lymphoma last year. You have put into words my feelings about the cancer journey. Stay well sweetheart. Enjoy your life and your loved ones....and yes you are a very strong woman ❤
Thank you for sharing, you have such a gorgeous little family and I wish you all the best for the future xx
Awe very sorry to hear this. You are in my prayers.
I'm so glad that you kept advocating for the medical treatment you needed. You are brave and beautiful! Inside and out. Thank you for sharing this information.
Excellent advice and explanations. Thank you Chelsey! ♥️
Bless you for putting this valuable info out there. Wishing you only the best. ❤
God bless you Chelsey. Praying for you!
I’m so happy for you! Thank goodness you sought a second opinion!
You are a truly amazing person! ❤
Thank you do much for sharing ❤ Sending youlots of love from Brazil
Thanks for sharing this. I am currently going through treatment for non Hodgkin Lymphoma. I sometimes feel like you when I go to the treatment center all the other patients are much older and sometimes I feel I need to speak with someone going through the same thing. Thanks again. 🙏🏾🙏🏾 It’s funny you said Florida was shut down and the Governor said he kept Florida opened throughout the entire pandemic.
I LOVE that Mayo doctor too!! Thank God for doctors like that.
Thanks for sharing. Really love Chelseys page on Instagram. Her creations give a humorous take on cancer. Particularly Salty Sunday! ❤😊
Thanks for sharing. Getting a second opinion is hard.
Praying for you 🙏
So glad you got the 2nd opinion. I am glad that you left that onco from hell, seriously you should sue him. Not telling you what to do, but this man needs to be stopped so that he cant hurt others. Maybe report him to your insurance and the medical board for malpractice. I wish you the best in your healing journey.
Gorgeous lady, you are incredible, I am so glad you went to Mayo.
Honestly, the best oncologists are at establishments like this .
Take it from someone who knows.
Keep going, you will get to a better place soon.
💪👍😘
❤
Unfortunately it wasn't relapse. It was always there. Prayers!
You really had a problem that you could not put your faith in your first oncologist; it is imperative to have a good relationship and trust your doctor with your
life!
Your mum looks amazing so young looking.
💖&🙏🙏🙏 as you restart
" The monster already caught me" 😢
Hang in there😊
🙏 ❤️ 🙏
The bed side manners in Florida are horrific. Im a proud Floridian, but my goodness....Most Drs here are pretty mean and useless. Im sorry you have go go through this.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Cancer never gets cured or is gone. You only go into remission. I will always come back. I’ve lost family members and my step daughter is in ICU right now.
Did you daughter make it? What was wrong I'm sorry
@@RustyShakleford1 she is still alive. They are still giving her chemo. She has a permanent tube in her belly. It’s stage 4 colon cancer. They are just doing what they can for her to live longer
You are a beautiful looking girl, hair or no hair wow. Sorry you going though this.
I’m finding through research and my own data surveys that individuals who had cancer or who were in remission and took the vaxxines are having cancer return. Also, there is an alarming rate of individuals getting cancer for the first time that are “wildfire” cancers and “rare” cancers at young ages. It’s very alarming and horrific. I hope one day there will be justice.
Your comment resonated with me.
You are absolutely correct concerning what's happening with the orcastrated attack against humanity regarding a certain medical procedure.
We are living in very dark, sinister times.
Sending you strength and best wishes from the UK 🥰 ❤️.
She looks 16 now.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🌹
Random comment here but your husband looks like Mark Consuelos. Kelly Rippas husband. Lol. Handsome guy. I’ll be praying for you sweet lady.
You must live in the U.S. My doctors here in canada are trying to convince me to allow them to suicide me (injection costs two bucks) instead of treating me (chemo and radiation would cost the system thousands). (We have the MAID program- medical assistance in dying) My life is not worth more than two dollars, apparently. Its not very nice to have doctors and nurses encouraging you to SUICIDE. "We can book you in; you'll be gone within the month". Im 34, still relatively healthy, just a bit of vision loss and minor headaches. And they want me DEAD.
This is horrifying 😳.
The western hemisphere governments are perpetrators of mass genocide against their population's.
Listen, your life is sacrosanct by God Almighty.
No one should ever ask you to end your life until God decides.
This is murderous, sinister, evil, disturbed agenda coming from your governing elite.
Omg to have your own state wanting you dead is a declaration of war against its population.
You must all rise up against this evil.
The world must fight back about what's happening.
It's beyond terrifying.
Please don't 🙏 ever think you are not worthy.
You are amazing and a miracle of life.
There is only one you.
You are special and extremely important ❤️..
God bless you from the UK.
Stay strong 💪 fight back.
Wow, I’m so sorry about what you’re having to go through !! Your life is precious and priceless! I will keep you in my prayers!❤️
WTF. Don’t let them make you feel that way!!!!! I hope you are Ok. There is support out there…
The system is broken my grandma was already jn hospice and the docotr sat us down told us she lives way longer than we expected, and there's this shot we can give her to help her "pass" lmao these doctors are evil doctors of death not life
