Finding out I have Cancer | My Cancer Story

Finding out that I have cancer
On March 15, 2019, after what seemed like a million tests and doctor visits, I was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called Primary Mediastinal Large B-Cell Lymphoma.
At first, I wanted to keep my health problems private and go through with all of the treatment quietly; however, after doing my own research, I realized that there is very little awareness about cancer in young adults. As much as we like to think that we are invincible at this young age, it is important to keep in check with your health!
I have decided that I want to document my entire cancer journey as a means to distract myself from the obvious downside of cancer, but also to raise awareness and help those who are going through or may one day be going through something similar.
If you know someone who is going through cancer treatment currently, please send them this video! Even if I help just one person through sharing my journey, my mission would be complete.

Two days ago (12/12/19) I celebrated 39 years of being cancer-free. I had metastatic malignant melanoma, Stage 4. I was a year older than you are now. I was given a 15% chance of living 2 years. I won. So can you!

[@ericafink95]

Amazing.so happy for you, God bless

What were the symptoms

[@jimmybrooks1759]

I was diagnosed with stage 4 Thyroid cancer that had spread to my lymph nodes at age 20. Ended up with 10 tumors in my neck. 30 years later Im fat and happy. Attitude is half the battle. Put your faith in God and he will guide the Doctors.. You will be fine. I respect your courage to share your journey..

[@niki-mars955]

Amen. So glad for you xxx I'm stage 1 thyroid cancer

[@leamay5134]

Thank you for this, Jimmy. I don't have diagnosis yet but I no longer sleep and barely eat due to anxiety. Lots of weight loss as a result. Your comment is an awakening!

[@sharniekoster2040]

To the people below. Grow up and don't comment that kind of rude insulting stuff to one another. This poor lady is suffering and to read this will make her upset and she does not need that on top of dealing with cancer. Make her comments section positive and a nice place to go to when she is feeling down. It does not matter what you believe in as a cure. The only thing that matters is it works and you live to tell the story. Please leave positive comments. Life is way to short to be horrible. Xx I mean that in the best way possible! Be kind to everyone as you do not know what they are going through!

[@sharniekoster2040]

@Kate Z It takes a great person to realise what they have done wrong, apologise and move on. So thank you 😊💓

[@suesattler2596]

Best wishes to you, dear. Tme and Youth are on your side. Get Well Soon.

[@dyingfrominsanity]

I was in stage 4 of a rare type of non Hodgkin’s lymphoma when I was diagnosed at 8, and here I am at 24. Stay positive 💕

[@jonathanparkhurst1080]

What is the survival rate of Stage 4 lymphoma?

[@dyingfrominsanity]

@@jonathanparkhurst1080 I had a 10 year survival rate of about 20% (2004). The cancer I had was very rare in children so they didn't really know how to treat me because they hadn't seen it in kids, it usually only occurred in men aged 50+.

[@marinadee2771]

Wow amazing! And may you have a long and healthy life ❤️ I love hearing about people beating this. Gives me so much hope for the future.

[@joannebrown6163]

The treatment for all stages of Hodgkin Lymphoma is the same, and even stage 4 have a good success rate of cure. Not sure about other types of Lymphoma ...

[@allisongarrett4824]

God bless you

[@ashleywilcoxfotfmod]

I’m 31. I just got diagnosed with breast cancer. I’m so scared. I know nothing at this point. But these videos give me hope

[@MissBe737]

My 25 year old daughter had breast cancer 3 years ago. She went thru chemo and lost her hair. She got a beautiful henna tattoo on her head. My daughter is a Christian so the Lord was her strength. I will be praying for you. You are very brave for making this video. God bless you and give you peace.

How did they find it? I have a broken bone that happened for no reason in a weird way, they haven't even looked into it

[@fabiank4396]

Best wishes for you.

[@jeremybolduc932]

Gemma freeman I broke my arm working at a hospital and restraining a combative patient. No signs, no symptoms. My tumor was 2x4x6 inches. Braking my arm saved my life. Never give up hope and fight the good fight

[@OZEEtube]

You can try praying blessings for Benny Hinn's Christian ministry every day. God gives me healing whenever I do. The website is www.BennyHinn.org if you want to check it out. I also donate to it. God bless.

[@MelanieCamille]

My cancer happened right as my life was falling into place too! Everything fell apart, but then it came back together better than it was before!

[@aleacejordan]

Melanie Camille awesome ❤️❤️

[@nancyjackson8886]

2 days before my brother’s 13th birthday he woke up with a severe headache and visual changes. After a bunch of tests he was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor . There were no known treatments and was given only 5-6 months to live. We were talking about a 13 yo kid. We pushed as most would to have anything and everything done. He is now 52 years old. I wanted to tell you this because first, it doesn’t matter how old you are, if it’s your lot in life is to end up cancer then so be it. It can happen to anyone from 0-100 years old. Second, no matter what the diagnosis is be brave push for every treatment possible and beyond. And tell yourself and others that you have looked everywhere and you haven’t found an expiration date on you anywhere. Always have hope and God bless you.

[@Just999Me]

I had a brain tumor as well and have double vision. What treatments was he able to get? Did his visual changes ho back to normal what where they?

[@alaysiabyers1135]

Praying for you❤️ my mom had cancer, just seeing her hurt my heart. She’s now cancer-free she did it by the help of the Lord and I know you can too!❤️ love you girl!!!

[@bhashinisreenivasa1696]

I was diagnosed with the exact same cancer in 2012 when I was 27 and newly pregnant. Sadly I had to let go of the baby to undergo a major surgery for the biopsy cause the mass on my left lung was so huge and had collapsed the lung. 8 rounds of RCHOP and 20 radiotherapy sessions later I was in remission. was told that my ovaries shut down and that I am in post menuposal state, so I cannot have a child of my own. Fast forward to now , I am thriving, the fittest I have ever been and a busy mom of 20 month old boy. Wishing you more power and the best of health to come. You have got this. Eventually you will see that the new perspective you gain from this journey gives is the the greatest gift of your life. Kudos to you for sharing your story. I was a sucker for inspiring stories like yours back then, and it gave me immense hope and strength. Lots of love and hugs!

[@vicky6762]

You fought and you won. And great to know you are a mom of 20 months old😊. Take care

[@MagsBujalski]

Wow thank you so much for sharing this with me! This gives me great hope that I will also reach remission and will one day be able to have children of my own! ♥️ Congratulations on your baby boy!

I'm so glad the walk in doctor took you seriously & didnt just say I dont know, let me pass you off & trust that you would go on a wild goose chase for answers. And even more relieved they ordered the follow up xray. We're all here for you, thank you for sharing your story. ❤️

Your video popped up in my recommended videos... Im about to go watch the rest of your journey, but before I go watch those videos I just want to say how much I admire you for your strength and positivity. Being 22 myself, having just finished my degree and started my career, I can't imagine how I would handle this situation if I was the one going through it.

[@LivegoodCreator]

I have had stage 4 cancer and it was heartbreaking. I cried for days and a voice kept telling me DeIynn you are going to die! I spent a lot of time slipping into the darkness but in the darkness came another voice just for me ' the voice said the same things all the time. It would say don't worry I am with you and days I could hardly walk from the pain he would say I am here get up and carry on for I am with you therefore no one or thing can snatch you from my hand. 2011 dying with cancer fast forward 2019 cancer free and living my life.
