I had Cervical Cancer at 28 years old . I had 2 kids already and got a partial Hysterectomy. I have been Cancer free for 34 years.

[@rruiz4145]

Thank you for sharing your testimony! It brings some positive vibes for us going through it right now!

[@charali1985]

Yes indeed.

[@TRUTHisTRUTH70]

I'm a nurse AND a cancer survivor. One important tip to anyone: ALWAYS ask for printed copies of every test result, scan or other imaging report, and pathology report. You can also ask your hospital for copies of scans on a CD so that the next doc can view (with their own eyes) and imaging. Keep all your results together, and if you have a patient portal, download everything to your own computer so it's easily accessible for the next doc. Learning to take control of your cancer journey is not only important, but minimizes the feeling of helplessness. Keep track of the names and dates of everyone you speak to on the phone or at appointments. Wishing you all the very best, and a cancer-free outcome!

[@HannahElaineStudio]

Wow this is such good advice. Thanks for your insight and work as a nurse ❤️

[@Tomas-major]

This is such such huge advice, because I had stage 3 cervical cells twice after my last two pregnancies. This was quite advanced I had laser colonoscopy then due to another issue to do with my ovary, I had a full hysterectomy. Truthfully this was more serious than I thought at the time, but I don’t feel it was ever at a life threatening levels although at the time it was taken very seriously especially as it was creeping up to my womb. The level is so important because if it is stage 1 pre cancerous it can sometimes be a watch and wait and can sometimes clear itself,

[@Ana_Lev]

YESSSSSSS THE BEST ADVICE. A love one of mine has cancer and keeping up with data is impossible.

[@whywhywhy1266]

Thank you.

[@capslovesit]

I've never felt second hand frustration this strongly before. Love you Jess

[@annarocha3254]

Can I just say that I started watching your videos when I was recovering from bone cancer. I'm now 30 and I have two children. Your baby videos gave me so much advice, grace, and encouragement. I am praying for you. Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable thing.

[@jess_hover]

Wow thank you! This is so encouraging to hear. ❤️ So happy you are well!

[@user-kz5ss3cj3b]

No this is Not Ok Not Acceptable. Your # 1 Job is to work w/ your Insurance until you have a COMPETENT Oncologist who treats you as a Cancer Patient who Needs Immediate Attention.

[@rebeccalehr7233]

So glad to hear that you recovered from the bone cancer! I know that’s a difficult diagnosis.

[@jessthoma2803]

I just watched Hank Green and Grace Helbig go through their own cancers, and they both said "If you can, make cancer your job. It really is a full-time job to manage it." Set aside as many responsibilities you can to give yourself some space to manage this. I'm so sorry our healthcare system is making this your responsibility... You are such a rock star, and you will get to the end of this! Take as much time as you need/can. We're here for you!!

[@alymj3304]

While I completely agree with the sentiment in theory, it's a lot easier to "make cancer your job" when you have enough money to not need to do an actual job. The impact of financial privilege of the experience of being sick cannot be overstated, especially somewhere like the USA where illness is expensive and financial barriers, like varying levels of health insurance coverage, limit accessibility

[@Candicewallace444]

I'm a cervical cancer survivor, now a radiation therapist, because of my own cancer walk. YOU GOT THIS! Praying for your health and strength throughout this journey! ❤

[@rosannasmith4203]

Jess, you and your videos singlehandly saved me when I had an unexpected pregnancy in 2019; I finally felt like I had someone to walk through motherhood with. My daughter is 4 now, and thriving, and I attribute a lot of it to you! While I can never repay that favor, know that I (and many, many others) wish you nothing but the best in your recovery, and we are sending love and hugs from around the world. ❤

[@amandamayfilms]

I just saw this and my heart sank 🩷 I'm so sorry Jess. I've been watching your videos and listening to your podcast for 3 years since I became a mom and you've been such a big influence & positive voice in my life. Thank you for your honesty, vulnerability, and bravery in sharing this news & journey. I will be praying for you and your family as you walk through this together. 🙏🏼 Much love from Canada 🇨🇦

[@jess_hover]

Thank you so much 🥹🥹

[@chaoselemental6759]

All the Love from 🇨🇦 You’ve helped me get thru the first 8 months of motherhood, and helped me know when it was time to reach out for help. I actually shed some tears telling my partner about this video, they just came up 🤷🏻‍♀️🥺 Then I took your advice to heart, and will be looking after my uterine health better too (just had a wonky CT scan with bulky this and swollen that) - I booked a follow up PAP. Love you Jess, and all the other mothers and KZbin followers reading this. 🙏🏻❤️

[@NikkiPhillippi]

Jess I am so sorry for everything you’ve had to go through with this 😣🥺 I’m praying for you and your family and I’m sending you love rn 🙏🏻🫶🏻🤍

[@AnneliseBlackbriar]

I am so sorry the medical system has failed you so far Jess, but I'm glad to hear you have gotten back on track by advocating for yourself. I am a medical professional, and cancer is always a big deal unless the oncologist says otherwise. Sending all the prayers and good vibes your way that it is very small/ already gone, but hopefully you get some answers very soon!

Hi Jess, I randomly came across your videos and subscribed thinking I would come back to watch when I am in a similar stage in life. I am a single, full-time working professional/plus recently graduated from night school student and I have never been married, have no children; only adopted nieces and nephews. The few videos I have been able to watch have been so relatable and filled with such grace and wisdom that I feel like we would totally be friends if I knew you on a personal level. Normally, I do not see your videos in my feed probably because I do not watch them very often/the algorithm etc. but I think I saw this video by divine intervention. I am so sorry that you are going through this right now, especially in light of your lovely family. Because I saw this, I will definitely be praying for you. I have another friend who also was diagnosed with cancer that I have been praying for so I will definitely cover you both! You are a strong woman and I am sure that you're an amazing mom and wife! Please take as much time as you need to have treatment, heal, etc. because you being here on this planet is so rewarding and so much more beneficial than what you do here on YT (which is truly amazing btw). You come first! We are here for you and in the meantime please take care and do not lose hope in the midst of this situation! Take it one day at a time.

Oh Jess. I’ve been a silent follower since my first kiddo and I have so so valued your honest, your compassion, and your “companionship” through motherhood. This IS a big deal. I’m so sorry.

[@tweetiebirdism]

I have never heard someone describe navigating our healthcare system so beautifully as you have. I’ve lived with a chronic Leukemia for 14 years and I have heard and experienced it all, although I’m baffled at whatever took you so long to get an appointment with an Onc, holy-moly! It IS scary and no one tells you that a class is needed for how to be a cancer patient AND advocate for yourself! I have found my cancer center social worker has been a life-saver for me.🌸

Girl I’m so sorry to hear this. I’m actually a cervical cancer survivor myself and I’m sending you tons of love and support. You GOT this. I had stage 1 and they removed a part of my cervix but enough to get the cancer but I should 🤞🏽 hopefully be able to still conceive. May you get through this will grace and ease. Don’t be afraid. You GOT this. Your oncologist will send you to get a PET scan so they can confirm where the cancer is and if it’s local or spread to lymph nodes (God willing no). This is the process they go through to stage you. You will get through this. I promise. It is the scariest thing I’ve been through so you’re not alone sister. It’s scary. You will survive this.
