I hope you are doing alright Lauren after being 5 years after beating lymphoma!!

[@LaurenMae16]

Thank you!! Still in remission & this year will be 5 years cancer free :)

[@ellelou6517]

You’re so strong and an inspiration to everyone Lauren. I’m so happy that you won you battle against cancer 💗

[@LaurenMae16]

Thank you 💕

I got diagnosed this year in January, last day of chemo is July 7th!!!

How are you now?

[@lostcitieseditz4044]

IM SO PROUD OF YOU! I may have to do my first round of chemo and I’m so so so so scared, I’m only 13. Can you help?

[@fyrn1_]

I just found out my grandad has stage 1 cancer and I’m so worried but happy he caught it early, I really hope nothing goes wrong. I’m watching stories of people to tell them how strong and amazing they are! So, you are amazing and strong! Beating cancer is one of the best things ever!

[@LifeofPaolah]

I just got diagnosed with breast cancer last week. still in shock. still processing. trying to "prepare" as much as I can. subscribing to a lot of youtube channels sharing a similar journey. I'm kind of scared. I am scared that IF I get cured, the immense anxiety and fear i may have after treatment and paranoia. Trying to take it one day at a time. Thanks for sharing your story, praying for continued health!

[@user-js1fq7pq3r]

Stay strong and fight 💗 I will be praying

[@LaurenMae16]

So sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I will say the first year out of treatment was when my anxiety was the highest. I can say that now 3 years out, there are some days where I don't even think about cancer. It may seem like it's going to be such a huge part/burden for the rest of your life, but as time goes by you feel more and more separate from that time.

[@maudeboggins9834]

The very best of luck. I sincerely hope you are doing well.

Hi there, thanks a bunch for sharing your story it’s so helpful listening to other survivors speaking of their experiences..... I was diagnosed with follicular lymphoma low grade back in August last year I started chemo November last year I finally finished chemo March this Year 2021 and Scan showed all lymph nodes had shrunk so I’m so grateful

[@marinapapathanasopoulou]

this girl has such a kind soul

[@LaurenMae16]

you're so sweet

[@acadiareece8425]

This was so beautiful. I’m glad you made a year out of remission update. It’s really cool to see how God really like had your back in all of this. I’m very thankful that it happened just as you finished high school because like you can go to college anytime, but you really only get one shot at high school. I’m thankful that the symptoms and experiences as traumatic as they were, they could have been so so so much worse. The only cancer I am familiar with in my town is the one that sticks with people for years and eventually leads to the worst possible outcome which we won’t talk about. I’m so thankful that you are here to share your story because I have learned and grown from your story myself. But yeah when you went to get that test to see if you were cancer free like those results were such a blessing and I’m so happy you got them. lastly like you said, God really laid out your college for you. If you hadn’t have had to go through what you did, you would have settled on your college choice. It’s amazing how God was like “okay, now you are ready for this” I just love when God does that when we least expect it. It’s also so Inspiring how you tried your hardest to cling onto God through all of this when most people would push him away. You are so freaking strong and beautiful and I love you lots.

[@LaurenMae16]

Wow thank you for your kind words!! 💕

[@johnbaylis7266]

Glad you survived your cancer, what an attitude to have, I was diagnosed this month in my kidney, its advanced, but there is a chance and hearing your story will make me positive and survive and get through it. You are an Inspiration to me at the moment.

One of the best lymphoma / cancer stories I've ever seen. Very honest, a lot of details, and a very sympathetic young lady. Wish you all the best. I've a similar experience last year (and still ongoing) with Hodgkin lymphoma with six cycles of BEACOPP esc and proton RT.

[@LaurenMae16]

Thank you so much!!

[@lt7378]

This video is so well done in relaying your experience. My son finished his 6 DA-EPOCH two weeks ago so I can relate to everything you’re saying since he stayed with us. I wish you well and subscribed to your channel tt keep updated. My son is at his first post chemo PET scan now. Yes, we are anxious. Definitely, God is my strength through all this. I believe there’s a reason for everything. May God bless you.

[@LaurenMae16]

scanxiety is so real, especially with the first scan after treatment!! Praying for good results 😊

[@ursulaamay]

I was diagnosed with B cell lymphoma stage 3/4 because it was in multiple location, one mass in my neck, and one giant one crushing my left lung. I have done 6 chemotherapy treatments and find out on Tuesday what my next steps are..I’m happy you are in remission, I hope I will be soon too!! Love from Toronto

Your videos have helped encourage me so much as far as hair after chemo goes and knowing someone else has been through all that! I had the same diagnosis, but stage 4 and was diagnosed last June. I've been in complete remission since the end of September! My symptoms were a lot like yours also with the mass in my chest and wrapped around my main pulmonary artery.
