My best friend was diagnosed with lung cancer when he was 22 years old. Thanks to doctors and their incredible research, he survived cancer.
Bless doctors and everyone who contributes to cancer research. Bless everyone who supports cancer patients. Because of them, people like my friend and Jill are still alive today.
That must be very scary to go through, I'm happy he pulled through!
@@raiden3079 your a good person
What stage was he in
Radon exposure is the number one cause of lung cancer in non smokers, and Ottawa is actually on an area of higher radon levels. To anyone reading this, have your house tested for radon before purchasing it. You can have radon remediation taken off the cost of the house if levels are discovered to be too high.
You can buy radon test kits that sit for 3 months and you send it back to a lab. Uni of calgary is running research on canadian radon
The Midwest also has very high radon levels, especially Iowa. It is important to keep a detector in your house always.
Poorly ventilated appartments with granite benchtops are a non statistically irrelevant risk, in Hong Kong where they're very popular in such environments i believe it's 2% increase in risk *of lung cancer
I remeber going to a homeowners convention and seeing my dad talking with a guy who did radon testing and abatement. I wish more people knew this.
Radon & air pollution (radon is also considered as one of indoor air pollutants) I know Hong Kong has a high background radon level because of natural presence of granite. Really depends on where you are and what furniture you used.
Love this channel, love the much more in depth look at the medical topics compared to chubbyemu. This channel is a gem.
10k a month for a pill to treat lung cancer is just flat out extortion. There is absolutely no way a monthly supply of that genuinely has to cost that much. People are essentially backed into a corner with a gun to their head and told "10k to maybe have a chance or you'll die". Disgusting.
Yea. I hear you. All that added value to the shareholders.. some of that loot, though- a lot in fact, has to go back for funding that research which DOES, cost a fortune. And lots of TIME..
@@ol6halodude577 The GOVT could be coming up with these medications just as easily, it isn't like the only intelligent people work at private companies. Fuck these companies.
@@rdizzy1 yea… and it’s ironic that what few intelligent employees the government DOES employ- could earn more money if they WENT, to work in the the private sector. But you hit the nail on the old head- the Government could do more- and the whole system needs more compassionate and more enpowered managers.
@@rdizzy1 the interesting thing is, pharmaceutical companies innovate WAY less than most people think. They make most of their money selling drugs already invented by govt
@@thedeaner3117 Yes, but they usually end up getting all the credit, leading people to falsely believe that the private market is better at developing new treatments than the government.
This channel is seriously hitting another level with the content
I'd love to know more about the science behind the "chemo pills". Glad she survived!
My mum has ALK lung cancer like the lady in this video too. The pills she takes are called alectinib if you want to do some investigating x
@@uponthebay thank you for the info and I hope your mom is doing well 💚
salute to bernard for providing us proper knowledge on medical stuff man hats off
My grandma was a stage 4 lung cancer survivor, it metastasized to her brain and did cause lasting neurological problems but she was cancer free for 12 years. She passed away last year due to other causes, very shortly after her mom died. She also suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and was neglected in a nursing home, she was suffering and lived in so much mental and physical pain. While it was miraculous that she survived such an aggressive form of cancer and while it was very hard to lose her after being cancer free for so long, in a way, I’m happy she’s free from her suffering. Love you Grandma Linda, you deserved so much better in your life.
Hey how I can contact you, how she survived so long...is it treatment or diet. Kindly guide.
My mother in law passed away after years of surviving a rare form of lung cancer, with the help of wonderful clinical trials, she was initially given 4 months, she made it to almost 8 years! This is why research is so so important. Please support research if you can ❤
My dad is currently suffering from stage 4 lung and throat cancer, they're doing some experimental treatments on him. I hope he can make it.
im so sorry hes going through that, ill keep him in my thoughts
I hope he gets well soon, power be with you! ❤️
You can't win if you don't fight it. My prayers for the best.
Don't ever lose faith
Best to your Dad and your family. Keep holding onto hope!
This genuinely breaks my heart as someone who lost 3 family members to cancer, leukaemia, lung, and bowel cancer.
My aunt had ovarian cancer and she lived then my mom had gotten tongue cancer, my mom was diagnosed in late 2019 and after surgery, chemotherapy and radiation my mom is cancer free as of February 2021 and it is a battle I wouldn't want anyone to go through, my family has been pledged with this terrible disease and I pray every day that we someday find a cure.
@Antun Šturlić can you get a lung transplant?
@@MA-zg2pz yes
Kudos to you for presenting these, Bernard! Wishing Jill a happier and healthier future! 👍🏻💕
Thank you
@@jillhw9664 Hi, Jill! I'm sorry my response is so late.
You're most welcome and I hope you're doing well! Best wishes to you and your family. 😊💕
She has a lovely smile. Thanks for all your content!
Eight years since diagnosis and you can still breathe and talk and live? There isn't a font size big enough for the ":)" I want to type. My own father went from diagnosis to death from lung cancer in only three weeks. That was years ago, but even now I can't watch this without tearing up repeatedly.
Sorry for your lose. That is the problem with lung cancer along with the pancreatic cancer - they usually found to late . Many of the survivals are usually these who was diagnosed early by mistake - that is they was doing tests for something else and found the cancer but pure luck.
Sorry that you lost your dad. My oldest brother similarly didn't live long after diagnosis, despite a doctor's prognosis that he likely had longer.
Sorry for your loss
Lung cancer is one of the worst that's for sure... Scary shit. I've seen it, the diagnosis is usually too late so you go from diagnosis, to urn in a matter of months.
My MIL lived about six months. It was the mets to her brain that ended the fight. Toward the end she told my wife "I wish I had stopped smoking earlier." I understand there are a lot of causes of lung cancer but tobacco got her.
Thank you, Ms Jill and Dr Bernard! Highly informative and helpful! Keep surviving, Ms Jill! Kudos for another stellar presentation, Dr Bernard!💖
My best friend got a double lung transplant a few years ago, they were also infected with tuberculosis, and she had to fight through that while on immunosuppressants... It's terrible to watch anybody go through anything like that. Health is important!
Congratulations to her! TB and lung cancer has to be a combination that shreds one's hopes.
This ladies and gentlemen is truly unique content.
My grandfather passed away from this stuff, he didn't notice until it was far too late. Just had some shortness of breath but it's hard to tell exactly when that becomes a problem.
Looking forward to hearing more results from trials of the targeted medicines.
Sorry for your family's loss.
Rest in peace
My grandmother had it as well, and almost no breathing issues at all, just had a minor change in voice, slightly deeper voice, thought it was laryngitis, was actually a paralyzed vocal chord from cancer in the lymph node nearest to the vocal chords, which spread from a spot in the lung.
This is a very strong and nice woman. She seems very very nice and sympathetic in these few minutes, even over 2 different screens.
Excellent video, I really appreciate the insight this gives me as a med student. I feel as though this exposure will make me a better physician.
My cousin had a similar story, although unfortunately he didn’t survive. At 25 years old he developed a chronic cough but was misdiagnosed with allergies then bronchitis then pneumonia. He didn’t get a chest x-ray until 3 months after he developed symptoms. It was then that they saw a mass and subsequently had a biopsy performed that confirmed stage 4 lung cancer. He had an ALK rearrangement that responded well to targeted therapy for about a year and a half until the cancer became resistant. Unfortunately he passed away 3 years later at age 28. He was supposed to begin a clinical trial but became too sick before he could start. We need better screening for lung cancer. My cousin was young and did not smoke. Because he had no risk factors, he fell through the cracks and wasn’t diagnosed until the cancer was already metastasized. I hope we can figure out better screening and treatment so no one else has to go through this; it’s a horrible disease.
Full body scan (CT) every 3-5 years would be great.
Very sorry for your family's loss. Lung cancer can be very challenging to diagnose before it has reached a later stage. We definitely need better screening, and education for doctors. These are things I and many others advocate for. Low dose CT scans can mean earlier stage diagnosis. Early detection matters.
my mom survived stage 4 cervical cancer :) congrats to jill for making it through 💕💕
I'll never forget the moment my Mom told me she might have cancer, and how hard she had to fight to live, I'm so lucky to still have her. This Woman has kids, I empathize so much, I hope she can be in the very small, very impossibly small group of stage 4 lung cancer survivors.
Thank you, and very happy to hear you still have your Mom
@@jillhw9664 I'm so happy to hear from you! I hope you're still strong in the fight, I wish your family many more years of happiness to come
Ms. Hamer-Wilson is a great example of how “heroes come in every shape and size”. And gender.
This video change my mind that lung cancer is mainly related to people who smoke or live near people who smoke...she radiates positive vibe and full of hope. Respect to her ❤
Thank you
an absolutely nice interview
My mother passed away from lung cancer. During her treatment, I was sruck by the stigma and judgement around this disease. In many ways, I felt it affected her treatment. She did take part in clinical trials for pill treatment and that did some good for a short period, she tried chemo in the beginning, but she also did radiation therapy and that didn't seem to help. Lung cancer really is awful. ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss, and for the trauma around it. Research matters, and is changing outcomes. The White Ribbon Project is helping to change conversations and attitudes.
What an inspirational video, she makes our worst complaints seem insignificant!
My mom died of nonsmokers lung cancer and has lupus as a late discovery. After a year and 3 months of chemotherapy she passed away with a collapsed lung.
Sorry for your loss and your family's loss.
My sister was really healthy, started getting pain in her lower abdomen after eleven months of going in and out of the hospital who had stated it was probably IBS eventually she was diagonised with stage four colon cancer at the age of 30, she unfortunately didnt survive.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
There is a major issue with GI doctors always throwing a diagnosis of IBS/IBD/GERD at every single person that walks through the door, subsequently having people die from various more rare issues like various cancers especially in the mean time, because they refuse to do more exploratory testing.
A friend of mine just went through surgery to remove cancer out of his lungs. The Doctor's found the cancer on an MRI he got because of a car accident he was in.
Best to your friend. So glad the cancer was found early. Hope the treatment works well and your friend has a quick recovery and long joyous life.
I think that pollution probably isn't pointed to often enough as a cause of cancer.
Love this interview style video, would be great to see more of these! Thank you for sharing your story, Jill!
Thank you
This woman has a grace and intelligence to her. I'm happy she is doing well and I hope she has many more years here with us.
Love it when heme review posts, even better that it’s on my birthday
Happy birthday!
I'm late but happy birthday!! 🎂
A friend of mine had Stage 4 non-smokers' lung cancer. It metastized and spread to his brain. He researched available drugs, and found some targeted to his specific mutations. These caused remission, and he remained in remission for 4 years. Unfortunately, the cancer eventually came back, and he passed away earlier this year.
Very sorry for your loss
don’t ever stop making videos ❤️
Hi Jill, I don’t know if you’re reading this but I’m wishing you all the best! You seem like such a great person and the world seems better with you! Sending love, Zoë
Wow, this is so beautiful❤️🥰
Thank. you Zoë
Watching these interviews really help me unwind after a long day. Thank you.
I see community as such a vital part of this narrative-and, finding your voice to share your story - thank you for sharing parts of your journey Jill. Your story - all elements of it - matters so greatly. This video makes we want to hear more and more from you - and, I already know you! DrD
Thank you DrD. Community matters. Research matters.
Such a compelling and inspiring interview! Sending love to Jill from Impact Church ❤️❤️
Thank you Impact Church family
Thanks so much for posting this, Dr. I lost my oldest brother and his wife to lung cancer. I sincerely hope she survives.
Thank you, and very sorry for your loss.
@@jillhw9664 Thanks. I'm pulling for you.
Not the usual Heme Review but absolutely stellar!
Your Presence on UA-cam continues educate, entertain and inspire. Thank you and Jill both for sharing this story!
Thank you
My mom has lung cancer w ALK mutations and this channel is really informing me about these things
Hope she makes a full recovery
Does your family know about online ALK support groups. The fb one is very informative, and offers info specific to various ALK treatment options and side effects etc. Check out fb ALK Positive if you're interested. Best to your family
I wish there was a better way to catch lung cancer early than ct scans. We need better and less risky ways to detect cancer in general.
Low dose CT scans are low risk and they are quite effective at catching lung cancer earlier. We need to keep working at better early detection for lung cancer!
@@jillhw9664 yes, but the problem is it's still too risky to do for the general public. We need a blood test that can catch all cancers in phase 0.
I had to go to headphones cuz of the audio, i didnt want to miss any of the conversation. God bless her. Great interview.
Glad to know if I get cancer I’ll die because I can’t afford proper treatment. I don’t know anyone that could afford $10,000 a month.
Yeah. In the eyes of big pharma, we are sources for profit first, and human beings second.
That's cheap compared some treatments.
The treatment for my type of MS is the only one there is, recently approved, and it’s given once every 6 months through IV. It costs $64k a year, so $32k a dose and it’s cheaper than most MS treatments given via IV. My insurance wouldn’t cover it only because there isn’t enough evidence that it would be successful in treating my condition and they’re correct in that regard. I can’t blame them for not wanting to spend money on something more likely to fail than succeed in treating what was an untreatable type of MS until 2015. That being said, I understand the pain of this situation, but I also understand the American healthcare system and the economic factors at play here. I wouldn’t want to receive medical care anywhere other than the United States for so many reasons I could write like 6 pages just summarizing those.
When it comes down to it, the United States has fantastic medical care and treatment standards that other countries don’t enjoy. In Canada you have ER’s with 8 hour wait-times unless you want to pay for medical care right away, treatment for other conditions or getting an MRI can often take months. The standards of care are lower and many Canadians come to the US for disease treatment like this. She even expresses this in this interview. Canada doesn’t have free healthcare for all, they wanted $10k a month for cancer treatment and she had to “track down” her insurance to see if they’d cover it. In the US, you’d have easy access to MRI that doesn’t cost a fortune and can easily be done in an emergency setting at the hospital if needed. Medical research costs millions or billions of dollars each year, pharmaceutical cost is even greater. Getting a drug approved is a lengthy and costly process, the manufacturing of said drugs is also expensive. Those employees have to be paid, too. Drug studies usually pay compensation to participants if it involves new medication. We have more MRI machines here than any other country including the most powerful MRI machines just recently developed that some countries don’t have access to at all. MRI is imperative to diagnosing neurological conditions and other central nervous system issues, including lumbar spine conditions amongst many, many, many others.
As an adult, you should focus on making sure you have the best insurance you can afford that’s based around your own personal health issues or concerns. Some insurance companies cover medications and prescriptions more than others, some cover primary care and preventive care more than others, some cover hospitalization more than others, so on and so forth. You control what insurance you have, make sure it’s the best one for you.
If you need emergency medical treatment you will receive it no matter what if you go to the ER. They can’t turn you away because you don’t have insurance or can’t pay. Prescriptions can usually be billed to you if you elect to get them from your hospital’s pharmacy if they have one. If you qualify, get on Medicaid. Literally all of my healthcare costs were covered with the exception of a couple medications, namely morphine and Desoxyn depending on the amount of pills and how many times I’d had a script filled that month. Use GoodRX for any prescriptions you have to pay for, it will save you tons of money. Morphine was $45 for immediate release, $90 for extended at CVS (and after showing I wasn’t abusing my medications measured by the length of time it took before I requested a new script get filled, I would pick up two full months worth of medication but the price was always the same no matter how many pills} but with GoodRX I paid $80 for everything. It’s a huge, huge help. Other than that, and my MS treatment I talked about earlier, everything was free. I live in CA, lived in NV which is about the same for Medicaid but they have better insurance providers that you get to actually choose from based on need or you can be assigned by the health and social services department to one of their default providers - and I know other states have great Medicaid programs if you fall on hard times and need one. I have a family of nearly nine, my husband and myself + 6 kids and 1 on the way. The income limit for Medicaid here is in the 6 figures for a family of nine. There’s help for people in many different situations you just have to look into it. My husband’s insurance from work is better and we pay extra for $0 co-pays for emergency and OBGYN as well as hospitalizations and prescriptions because I’m hospitalized relatively frequently. It’s worth it for the standard of care we receive.
Research how much money it costs to develop drugs, and remember that your hospital staff has to be paid, the hospital has to buy every single thing that’s used for care to the tune of hundreds of millions, likely billions for larger hospitals, of dollars a year. If you see a doctor at a private practice, they have to cover all of the business costs and costs of medical supplies and whatever else. We have such amazing doctors due to the competitive free-market healthcare system where there are incentives to provide better care, and ambitious research projects are able to be funded. We have generic medication as well, which many countries like Canada don’t have. Some generic versions are thousands of dollars less than the name brand. Don’t believe the propaganda, learn about microeconomics and business and then learn how the healthcare system applies those principles and how developing pharmaceuticals and funding medical research and drug trials or getting something approved by the FDA actually works and how much it costs to do these things.
You do not want the government to control any part of your life, and that is tripled when it comes to healthcare. The federal government has no right and no business to control healthcare for Americans and limit the economic benefits of the free-market system that allows us to have the fantastic medical care we have available to us. They (the government) want this power, they want you to think it’s better for you, so instead of helping tell people to shop around for insurance and how to pick the best plan or anything related to ensuring you have great healthcare that works for you, they simply exploit people’s fears and outright lie about whatever they need to in order to push this agenda forward. It’s disgusting and it’s getting worse and worse.
“I’m from the government and I’m here to help,” is the single most terrifying sentence you should pray you never have to hear, as it usually precedes your rights and liberties being stripped away forthwith.
Just a brief little summary, I can explain better if anyone wants me to and if UA-cam will actually let me, I can link to official sources (not press releases). This is an important issue and Americans have been way too easily duped into believing we should destroy a healthcare system they simply just don’t understand or pay any mind to otherwise. It’s my mission to help try to provide some insight and knowledge to as many people as possible about government, the economy, law and policy, etc. so they can protect their interests and educate themselves and hopefully help other people with that knowledge as well. Have a great week everyone! Thanks for reading my comment
@@inpropriapaislee you wrote a full sized article as a comment....
You truly are a good writer
Just wanna say I love this video and your content never stop fighting the good fight my man :)
amazing content, thank you!
I had no idea you made this video, I'm happy I stumbled upon it. Thank you for sharing Jill's story
Thank you for this, much love to Jill.
This is great man!!!
It makes me mad that the first doctor just kept prescribing the same things even though they could SEE it didn't work and that something else must be going on, if a "normal cough" doesn't clear up after a couple of weeks!
Wow, that lady's been on a roller coaster alright. Glad she's doing fine considering her stage. Too bad we never heard about the specifics. Adenocarcinoma I reckon?
More specifically probably a bronchalveolor adeno. Carcinoma.
This is awesome Jill!
this just inspired me even more. thank you so much for this.
It’s awesome to see some different content from the channel
I'm really mad that this didn't pop up in my sub box for some reason!
What a great video, I absolutely love Heme review - the more in depth videos and those more personal experiences with patients.
Thanks for the efforts, keep it up! :)
I'm so glad you made it. God Bless you and yours.

@@jillhw9664 your welcome, are you still o.k. + on the up ? Thanks
Thank you for sharing this . My father is diagnosed with lung cancer last year . My aunt followed a few months ago sadly. I teared up while watching this . Than
Sorry to hear this. Best to you
Have you heard of Chris Wark, author of Chris Beat Cancer? He's a UA-camr now. Look him up!
A woman had stage 4 lung cancer, here's how she survived.
My dad was diagnosed with cancer in 1996. Kidney Grawitz tumor. He was immediately sent to the Daniel Den Hoed clinic in Rotterdam, Netherlands. There, a friendly doctor told my dad that there was only chemotherapie as official treatment but also that there was a clinical trial running for Interferon-beta. My dad signed up and got his shots, twice a week. Each shot cost in the order of $3,000 if can remember correctly. But it was all paid for by the foundation. After 8 months of treatment the tumor had shrunk from volleyball size to egg size. They decided to operate and remove the shredded kidney and tumor, also replacing a calcified piece vena cava. Then, more shots. After about a year, he was officially in remission. But in 2000 he started to feel pain in his left leg joint. The bone had started to metastasize. Interferon did not work anymore, he had one or two more chemos but then really gave up. He passed in 2004.
😢😢 So sorry to hear that. Prayers. 🙏🕊 May your Dad rest in Peace. 🕊🙏💐🕊
I'm aware this is almost certainly an effect of her cancer or its treatment but her voice is kind of beautiful. Hopefully that doesn't sound too unfeeling, if you see this Jill.
Thank you
YEAH YOU!!!!
I pray you are doing well. I was listening to a you tube video about a man that had multiple cancers and a vet recommended he take a dog worming medicine. He was cured-they are starting to do research. A veterinarian also has a you tube video about this. I wish I knew how to do links but if you’re interested, a search on you tube will find the interviews. I found the comments written under the veterinarian piece to be very encouraging.
I’m a registered nurse, I know I might sound nutty -I’m not. Alternatives can be good! All the best to you!
It's a shame the audio is all over the place in this video, it's a really good and interesting interview.
Subtitles ._.
If i already have cancer i don't need to worry about not smoking anymore.
15:15 ff Jill's microphone pretty much cuts out. It seems to be fixed at about 21:20
Sounds like an EGFR Mutsted lung adeno... Often not associated with smoking... Good luck to her 🤞🏼
Most patients may be unaware that CimaVax - Cuban vaccine for advanced (stage IIIb-IV) NSC lung cancer - is super efficient in terms of life expectancy and quality and affordable seen costs on doctorcuba if self-pay or uninsured.
How the hell can it be legal for a cancer treatment to be 10k a month?
Dude the audio lol
I wonder how she's doing now?
unfornutely, she passed away november 13th 2022...
How a-typical is her survival?
Rare very rare
Over 80% of those with stage 4 lung cancer die within a year of their diagnosis...so...yeah...very much atypical. She seems to be doing well, considering!
Thank you for the replies. My mom's bf has stage 4 lung.
For a normal patient with metastatic lung cancer, this length of survival is very abnormal. However, she mentioned that she takes a type of targeted therapy (either for ALK, EGFR, ROS1 etc mutations) and the small subset of those patients tend to survive for many years due to the increased effectiveness and durability of the newer treatments.
A study done back in 2018 at the University of Colorado Cancer Center determined that those with ALK positive metastatic lung cancer have an overall survival rate of about 7 years on average even with metastases outside the chest. Compare that to maybe a year or two using the newest chemotherapy/immunotherapy regimens for patients that have metastatic non-small cell lung cancer without a targetable mutation. So for the small subset of patients that are able to take these medications, survival such as this is very possible. Unfortunately, resistance almost always develops and so second, third, and beyond line treatments are necessary.
With new research, more people are living longer and better, even with late stage diagnosis. Median survival rate for the kind of lung cancer I have is around 7 years, and the vast majority of people are diagnosed late stage. Research matters! Early detection matters too
i just cant wrap my headaround how we soon have the first people going to mars and we still cant cure cancer
Well they are two fundamentally very different problems :/. So are you advocating for not exploring space until everything on earth is solved?
@@rickgao9573 space can be explored without sending people
@@rickyjoehand3589 that still doesn't address the main issue :/
okay but why are there dislikes on this video
I am 45 smoked meth heavily a while back and smoked Lots amounts of weed and ciggs. I am literally heathier right now than some of my co workers that are in the gym all day and eat their veggies. I was blessed with good genetics.
As far as you know
Survivaaaa
I also still have cancer 4 brain.
Like other I am hoping at I can in super.
Try long fasts, not eating any food at all, only electrolytes if needed. Really it will help a lot, and if you are on chemo fasting will protect against some of the damage from chemo.
Ideally do at least a 1 week fast, 3 weeks is best.
@@andreahighsides7756 telling someone on chemo to fast when what they need is nutrition is horrible advice. Fast for 1 week on chemo? Get fucking real.
Hi! I pray for your health to improve, don't fast that's a bad idea. Try drinking carrot and apple juices avoid unnatural sugars. Hopefully it will make you feel a bit better. God bless.
Also, Dr. Bernard, I have a question. Where are you from? Your name kinda reminds me of names from my country, germany :D
Looks like he's from Canada.
@@Noodles.FreeUkraine He said in a video he has family in Asia aswell tho.
@@regular_being He quite obviously has Asian heritage, so it wouldn't surprise me if he still had relations back home.
The name sounds French, not German, though. The German variant would be Bernhart / Bernhard or something similar.
@@Noodles.FreeUkraine Indeed youre right but I know someone with the name Bernard. (Im not sure if he has a background of other countries tho)
@@Noodles.FreeUkraine he’s a doctor in the United States. East coast I’m pretty sure.
let me light a smoke, this should be a good one.
3 weeks , for an adult, seems so normal. :( Poor lady, must have gone from ew flu to terrified in just a couple of days.
