My Breast Cancer Diagnosis Story

[@hlnmr]

dear jessica, this is probably going to be a very long comment as i want to write out some words i've been meaning to tell you for months now. i started doing your pilates for beginners workouts in the beginning of the year and i remember crying on the mat at your gentle and calm way of teaching. my whole life, i have not been good at sports and i had the worst gym teachers back in school who made me think of myself as someone who's not good enough to succeed at any sports and it made me dislike myself and my own body, and every time, i wanted to get into exercising, i did it with the wrong intentions (to lose weight as fast as possible) and worked against my body instead of with it. with just one gentle pilates workout, you single-handedly healed years of my PE trauma. i love that you always point out how you want to help people with the body they have and reach their individual goals, may it be a marathon or getting out of bed without pain. you helped me change my perspective and intention to working out and i'll be eternally grateful to you for that. so naturally, the video title shocked me - as a med student who's been to the ob-gyn department and as a daughter and granddaughter to two breast cancer survivors. i was so relieved when you said it was a DCIS and i'm glad it was discovered at that early stage. that doesn't mean that it's still not a heavy diagnosis with a lot of consequences that affect your body, mental health, wellbeing and everyday life. in german there's a saying that goes being lucky within bad luck. i'll keep you in my thoughts and wish you all the best. i hope you can go on this journey with trust in your body and with great support from your family, friends and subscribers. sending you hugs and love from germany🤍

Thinking of you at this time

[@mskeena2010]

Hello Ms. V. I am praying for you. I know God's hand is on you. You will get through this. I want to ask you to do something, respectfully. As you talk about this battle, please refer to it as your battle with cancer . When you say " my breast cancer " you're taking ownership of the very thing you don't want. I am not saying deny the diagnosis. I am saying put cancer on notice that it is on foreign territory by not taking ownership of it. Began referring to it as your battle with cancer. You were not made to be defeated. I just found you and I have no intention on letting go. God bless you and your family. You got this.❤❤

[@lauriejentsch978]

Just found you and have done 2 of your 10 min workouts, please know I’m praying for you as I’ve loved your videos and teaching. God bless you, lean on Him at this time.

[@michellearnaud6913]

Hi, I started your Pilates a few weeks ago, and I think that you are great in what you do. Sorry about your diagnosis, praying for you. I would like to tell you more but my English is not good enough to express everything in my heart. Hope that everything will be ok for you. Michelle the FrenchCanadian . Namasté

[@patriciamiola2480]

Sending you lots of love and hugs! Everything will be ok 🙏!

[@kriscaldwell9773]

I discovered your channel this week and just found this video. I was diagnosed with stage 2A HER2+ breast cancer 3.5 years ago. You put into words what I haven't been able to articulate. I do not feel safe in my body. I need to feel that safety. I have trouble sticking with workouts. I've gone through 22 rounds of chemo and I've had 5 breast surgeries since diagnosis. Thank you for sharing your story. I feel like I have finally found my place.

[@australiamyway]

Bless you. Were you on HRT?

I am an eleven year breast cancer survivor. It is a very personal journey and everyone needs to make the best decisions for themselves. I wish you healing and peace in the process.

[@JLvatron]

So sorry to hear this. From a 5-year cancer survivor, my prayers are with you. Thank you for sharing this with us and for your courage and grace in this difficult time.

[@wendypassalent4426]

As a breast cancer survivor I have one piece of advice …stay positive. A positive frame of mind is so important to the entire experience. Thinking of you and wishing you all the best. Take time to celebrate Christmas/the holidays with family and friends.

[@gokhanguneysu3419]

A very close relative o'mine had it like twenty years ago. She is still well and alive. You will beat this illness in no time!

[@tomjenko6477]

Hi Jessica, I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 38. My youngest was 8 months at the time. I am now 68. My Mother died at 27 from breast cancer so I was acutely aware of my genetics. I had a Mastectomy at the time followed by chemotherapy. Please know I will be praying for you but I have great faith that you will triumph and get through this. Thanks for sharing this news with us and being a great Pilates instructor. Blessings and peace be with you and your family.

[@australiamyway]

Bless you so much. ❤

[@amyfromindy]

I just received word today after having 2 biopsies three days ago that I have DC IS. I have an appointment in just a few hours with a surgeon. I'm in complete shock and with desperation to understand what I'm in for I found this video. I have so many thoughts I can't shut off and if I'm being honest I'm scared. Thank you for publicly sharing your journey so women new to this diagnosis like myself don't feel so alone. I'll be following your journey as I begin my own. Again, a big heartfelt thank you.

[@sheryl-annmullings-black6363]

Oh wow Jessica! I am so sorry! My daughter and I have been doing your exercises for over 2 years and have shared your videos with my family and friends. May the Lord Jesus cover you through your medical care, rest and recovery and anyone else dealing with this disease. God bless you!

[@esterfleurke9309]

Amen ❤

[@reginast.pierre5566]

Amen 🙌

[@jodireed6287]

Our twins were 9 months old when I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. They are 14 now. I understand the unbelief in receiving that dx. I'm also a PT & I love your videos. I'm going to be praying for you & your family. Like you, I would have never chosen this path, but there is richness to be had that seems can be gained nowhere else. I give glory to God for granting peace through the journey....praying the same for you, and total healing. .....rooting you on! Jodi Reed

[@jillybean624]

I'm so very glad it's a stage 0. It sucks, but it sucks a little less. I hear you about all the appointments and tests - I'm waiting to hear if I have thyroid cancer, and it feels like it's appointments stretching into eternity. All the best with your treatment and recovery.

[@reginast.pierre5566]

I was recently diagnosed with stage 3 metastasized breast cancer. I pray that you have a quick and full recovery. Pray, Stay positive, It will get better! 😊🙏

[@australiamyway]

I pray for you. Were you on HRT ?

[@djdogbeach]

I don’t often leave KZbin comments but this knocked the wind out of me. You’re incredible, your videos literally changed my life when I stumbled upon them earlier this year. I don’t even know you but have grown familiar and comfortable with your deeply supportive & soothing voice. You have a palpable impact on so many people’s lives. Thank you so much. Holding you and your family in prayer. We’re all rooting for you and your full recovery. Bless you.

[@lynnallen3158]

I'm so sorry to hear of your diagnosis. I'm an 18 year Ovarian Cancer Survivor myself. 2 surgeries and Chemo...but by the grace of God I'm still here to share my story. I believe in the power of prayer, so I will keep you in mine. God Bless you and keep during this difficult but amazing journey to see what God will do, and how he will use you for his glory ❤

[@karenmacauley8158]

I have survived lymphoma just over 20 years ago, now i have breast cancer and had my left breast removed 3 days ago. Even tbough i feel ok mentally but seeing these videos really gets to me at least i know there are support out there

[@tmp-r2j]

Hi Jessica. I was diagnosed with DCIS in early Feb 2024. Oncoplastic surgeon advised lumpectomy as the size is too small.However, the surgery was together with my hysterectomy due to prolapse. I am now recovering, still anxious and sleepless sometimes. I can't wait to start doing your exercises. Hope to hear some more about your DCIS experience. Appreciate you a lot.🙏🤗

[@lindafields4632]

Oh Jessica, how brave of you to share this so very personal news. You are an inspirational lady and I wish you all the good luck in the world. Thank you for your amazing videos and the very special gift you have for making people value their health. 🥰🥰🥰

[@TheShumoby]

I had my first mammography at age 46 last year. I have dense breast, but nothing notable was found. I'm wishing you well. I'm sure everything will turn out well for you. ❤

[@taliraz6669]

Dear Jessica, I send you love and wish you a good and successful journey. Also want to thank you. My 2 years old grandson was diagnosed with leukemia two months ago. I can absolutly understand what you mean in the fog you are in. I learned from you that a painful part of our body is not our enemy. So when my grandson tells me his legs are in pain (from chemo), I hug him in my arms, we sit and sing songs to his legs, we tell the legs how much we love them. That is my interpertation to what I learned from you. So thank you for your wisdom and I am sure you have all you need to win this. Good luck 🙏🏻

[@staceydohn6740]

I'm terribly sorry to hear this news, but so glad that this was caught early! You are an inspiration to me - I'm 54, and love that your pilates videos are for everybody and "every body"! I've never stuck consistently with any exercise, until finding your videos over a year ago. Sending you wishes for hope and healing, as you begin your treatments.

[@victoriachase2031]

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I had DCIS at age 37. I have a left breast mastectomy. I am now 54 years old and doing great! You also will be fine.

[@MandalaBunnyhome]

We are all rooting for you jessica!! ❤

[@mmaksail8627]

I’m so sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I’m a stage 2B survivor and just finished all of my treatment 5.5 years later and use your videos to keep me strong.

[@stephenfolds822]

I lost my mother to Stage 4 DCIS when I was 20. She left behind four children. She was a nurse practitioner who noticed the lump doing a self-exam. The doctor misdiagnosed her by literally breaking the biopsy needle in her breast, which wasn't discovered and properly diagnosed until 1 year after the fact. I have followed DCIS and read a spate of articles since my mother's passing. Apparently, great scientific strides have been made with this type of cancer . Thank you for your incredible outlook and approachable pilates videos. I lost 190 poinds since last October without surgery and zero medication. Your basic 15 minute pilates was my starting point and I still do it every night. Prayers for you and your family. You are a blessing and a light to so many. I'll be signing up for your unlimited in 2024.

[@Seahawkess]

Hi Jessica, Thanks for sharing. I was diagnosed with aggressive level 3 DCIS late in 2020, during the pandemic and felt isolated and alone. If you haven’t already, do contact a “patient navigator” to help organize the overwhelm and better process the symphony of medical visits. If you feel at any point that you aren’t being “heard” having a cancer social worker from the hospital accompany you to doctor visits. I had a bilateral mastectomy after all was said and done with no reconstruction to keep it simple. You may have two surgeons, your cancer surgeon and reconstructive surgeon. It feels terrifying and overwhelming and, boy, do I understand! It’s now the end of 2023, and I’m still cancer free (I refused radiation) and I forget I ever had cancer unless something reminds me. You’re going to rock this, Jessica, because you have something I didn’t: SUPPORT! My thoughts and prayers are with you.❤

[@blacknessg]

Sending you a warm hug

[@FullylovedbytheLORD]

Hello, I just wanted to say that your videos have been extremely beneficial in strengthening and relieving the pain in my body. It is such a blessing that your tumor was detected so early and that you have been surrounded by people who support you. I just wanted to remind you that as someone who has also gone through both emotional, mental, and physical pain throughout my life, when your strength runs out you can run to the open arms of your loving Heavenly Father who knew you before you were born and created you to be wonderfully complex. He will never abandon you or forsake you. Wishing you the best in your journey and thank you for sharing your story with us. May the peace that surpasses every circumstance be with you and may His strength that surpasses all creation empower you. May Jehovah, the Almighty LORD bless you and be with you. Amen.

[@LieslC861]

Hi Jessica, I don't know if you will even have the time to read this but I hope you do. Thank you for your vulnerability ... I stumbled upon your Pilates videos this morning for the first time to do a stretching routine as I am a bit stiff across my chest area and shoulders. I can not say that I know how you feel, but I do understand a little bit. I was diagnosed with breast cancer stage 1 (the same type as yours at the age of 52), one year ago, and received a bilateral mastectomy on 25 November 2022 with partly reconstruction. The second reconstruction operation was in February this year. I understand about all the tests, doctors appointments and healing plans and I want to wish you well and say that you are not alone. I will be praying for you for full recovery. I am so thankful that you are so fit, and I want to encourage you to remember that your beauty will always remain inside of you, even though your 'outside' is changed. I am grateful to say that I am in full recovery now. I have subscribed and will follow your journey. Love and kindness, Liesl from South Africa ♥

Hi Jessica, take good care of yourself, I believe you will go through this process in love and light surrounded by Angels with a triumphant result. Many blessings

I’m so sorry you are going through this. You are a precious light in this world. I will pray for your healing, care and all the moments with yourself over the coming months.

[@wilenglish2991]

Hi Jessica, iv not had breast cancer but iv had cervical cancer and my daughter had refractory leukaemia. While I can’t comment on breast cancer I can say that the online community for all cancers is incredibly supportive and full of lovely humans who feel like family and we all go through the highs and lows together. It’s amazing news that you have stage 0 but please don’t let that make you feel like you can’t cry and hate the world a little bit, it’s unfair and some days are just awful. Sending you so much love from myself and my family to you and your family. ❤

[@Italgirl0528]

Dear Jessica, My heart sank when I saw the tagline of this video. You have been such a pillar for us through all of our physical trials and tribulations, and I am saddened beyond belief by this awful news. One thing I know is that you will come out of this better than before. Why? Because you did that for me before and after my hysterectomy and for so many of us with health issues. You and your family are in my prayers, and I wish you a speedy recovery from this. Thank God you caught it so early. Take good care, and thank you doesn't even begin to cover all that you have done for your online community. We love, appreciate, and support you! May God bless and watch over you. 🙏 ❤

Jessica. Best wishes to you through your treatment and recovery. Unfortunately so many people have their stories and experience. My wife has successfully battled breast cancer twice. Being near Boston gave her access to great hospitals and Doctors, that said - being her own health care advocate and not being shy about questioning the Doctors was important. They say attitude is so important, and you've got the greatest attitude around !!! We will be praying and thinking of you.

It's hard, but there have been many improvements in breast cancer treatment in the past 10-15 years. Sounds like it was caught early. So wonderful that you've chosen to share your journey with us!

Hi Jessica, i just found your channel, I actually saw your video of hysterectomy since I am having one in January. Very informative by the way. My breasts are also too dense and this past Friday I had another mammogram and an ultrasound because they saw a mass. It may be nothing, but they want to test further so this coming Tuesday I will have a biopsy. I am 41 and hoping in God that I am free of any cancerous cells. I know this video was posted a few months back, but I feel very happy that you are a healthy, happy woman from what I see on your recent videos❤ I am very new to your channel but I am very happy I found you since we are going thru similar things. I also love pilates exercises so I will start watching those videos and implementing a more active life. Thanks so much, God bless you❤

Please remember that you do not journey alone.

[@amyavalos5815]

13 years ago we went through this same diagnosis with my mom. The benefit of being diagnosed so early in the DCIS stage is that my mom didn't need any treatment after surgery because the tumor was in situ and not invasive.

I’m so glad you have been going for routine mammograms! 💗 Thank God! I have been doing your beginner Pilates program every day for several years. My sister suggested your videos, I’m so thankful she told me about them! It’s always good to go for routine checkups, even if your chances of having cancer are small like it was for my mom. My mom was always afraid of going to the doctors and was afraid of hearing bad news. So she put things off so long that it was too late. She did finally get her first mammogram and ultrasound in 2021 at age 64. I came to your channel today to look for exercises specifically for my back, but to also find something positive to do to replace my anxiety. My mom passed from metastatic breast cancer last year, and i worry sometimes that my family or i will have cancer someday. Thanks for sharing and for setting a good example of going for the routine checkups! It’s so worth going!! You got this! I will be praying for you! 💗

[@maryalice8229]

I’m a recent visit to my cardiologist, we discussed cancer. She said that nowadays they are treating cancers like thyroid or cholesterol or diabetes. On one hand, hearing cancer as a whole doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, I found solace that it is very treatable. Much more information these days. Take care!

Jessica, I’m so sorry to hear about this diagnosis- I just recently found your videos as I am a breast cancer survivor s/p reconstruction DIEP last year and touch up surgery of sort 2 months ago. I was looking for some Pilates, like instruction to help regain my strength and my mobility and range of motion after 2 years of surgeries and time to get healthy and fit again. When I ran across your videos, I just really fell in love with your style, how you explain things and show variations for those of us not as flexible as we once were - I can say I get excited to spend a half hour working out with your videos and I want to thank you for the time and effort you put into everything and your channel!! Will pray for you as you start this breast cancer journey- you’ve got this!!
