I am 29 and went through a similar journey. I was diagnosed on the day after my 29th birthday. I’ve been married for 3 years and my husband and I don’t have kids yet. I also had egg retrieval one week before my double mastectomy. I underwent chemo during the coronavirus quarantine and now I’m doing daily radiation. My one constant and peace in this trial has been my faith in Jesus. I cling to Him and His love for me and for my husband as we walk through the valley. I’m praying for you and thank you for sharing as I’m sure many other young survivors don’t have to feel alone! We are few but strong!

They recently found 2 solid Masses in my right breast , they told me to go back in six months to see any changes , but I'm seeing a breast oncologist next week , I don't want to wait, I want it removed , don't want to take my chances , I have a 1year old and Im all he's got. I'll be 24 in September. My primary doctor brushes it off because of my age but cancer doesn't discriminate, thank you for sharing your journey. I'm gunna stick to my guns and get things checked out.
How are you??
How are you
I am happy for you...I have symptoms similar to colon cancer and even got a painless lump on my upper back thigh..but apart from the fear of the unknown, I can't go for a diagnosis, cos I can't afford that even...I am prepared for whatever happens...at least, seeing someone surviving, gives me hope.
@Larose Murphy honestly, I can't say. When I noticed the lump on my thigh and started googling about it. I saw how much it cost to remove a lump by surgery and was shocked. Then, I googled cost of chemotherapy and others..and that's where I gave up..not ready for any of those..
@Larose Murphy I live in Nigeria..and you?
@Larose Murphy for me to do the tests required, I would need about $900 more or less.it says I need to surgically remove the lump, do a biopsy and also a colonoscopy. I think that should cover it all..or at least, most of it..
@Larose Murphy how is life in new York by the way?..hope you are well?
@Larose Murphy oh wow..thanks..I sure will go for diagnosis when I can afford to. And the cost is about 900 US dollars. I am using a private hospital standard for it. It might be a little cheaper if I go to a public hospital. But here, public hospitals aren't well equipped. My late dad died cos of hospital negligence in a public hospital. Since then, I'm skeptical using them.

To everyone reading this please turn to Jesus He loves you and wants to save you, He is the God of miracles the bible tells us in Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved, I seen God do amazing things in my life and in the life's of people I know He can do the same for you, In your darkest hour call on Him, God saved someone I love from an illness leading to death, Its as simple as asking Jesus into your heart to be your personal Lord and Saviour, Jesus will answer you, I know this because it happened to me when I called out to God

I was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) and breast cancer disease in which I have tried all I could with medical prescription all to no avail.february 1999 and had my left kidney removed at that time. It was determined that no other treatment was needed. This was an incidental finding, seen on an ultrasound to check my gall bladder - I had no signs or symptoms from this tumor. I was followed for 6 years and was deemed cured.
In April 2014, 15 years later, I noticed a lump at the top of my sternum and it turned out to be renal cell carcinoma from the tumor previously removed. I am now Stage 4 as this is a metastasis. The cancer had grown through and broke the bone - I never had any pain or symptoms. I had 10 radiation treatments and was put on oral in August 2014. I started experiencing bone pain in Feb/March 2016 and was given an additional 10 radiation treatments which eliminated the pain. A break in the bone just below the tumor was later identified when the scar tissue developed. I remain on daily oral chemotherapy, I was recently introduced to a Chinese herbalists Dr sale bashiru I contacted him and after necessary questions and forms fill out sent me herbs and oil that cured me of all this diseases within three months of trial.im now symptoms and pain free.here is my email address if you may need help. sarahsmi100@gmail.com
U r strong & beautiful 🌹
Good for u surviving
Well, if jesus saves people why do so many die of this dreadful disease
Because He probably doesn’t want them to suffer this dreadful world.
I would rather die and live with God in peace then live in this world.
Because we don’t live in a perfect world. We live in a sinful fallen world.
Ratio bozo 🤷😂
