Thank you for sharing your story! I went to the ER with abdominal pain a few days ago and a large mass was found on my ovary. The doctor told me it’s possibly cancer and to seek treatment ASAP. Even the nurse advised my husband and I to be sitting at the doctor office at 8:00am Monday morning to get referral to oncologist. Wow 😬 really scared us. I’ve been very anxious ever since and this video has given me encouragement. There is still a chance it’s benign but if it’s not I will keep this video to give me encouragement. God Bless... ❤️

I was going to send this video to my best friend, however, the part about women "not surviving" this disease has prevented me from doing so... sadly. 😢
A great video apart from that, thank you so much! 🤗

Is she still alive?
