My daughter died of thymus gland cancer. He was treated by a team of doctors who are based in New Zealand. She was diagnosed with IV-B Stage at the first test. This happened while she was pregnant with her first child (boy). How come the cancer advanced so fast? She was given 3-5 years to live outright. She was treated with many approaches while carrying the baby, but not chemo, only after she gave birth. She lived only 1 year and 7 months.

Im sorry that you had to go through this! I was told I have thymoma or have a thymoma ?.. I was told this 2 weeks ago..Every since I've been researching thymoma I'm not really seeing any information..is it cancerous? I've been panicking ,crying and stressing for a whole two weeks.. I was having chest pain and body pain for awhile and my docter was being dismissive and act like she didn't care. I had to cry in her office to get a MRI and this is when they discovered the tumor in my thymus.. I'm wondering if this is the cause for chest pain and body ache this whole time .. Thank you for this video.
