“As far as my cancer journey goes, I did the usual. I had surgery with a gynecological oncologist who specializes in treating ovarian cancer, which went very well for me. I also went through chemotherapy and lived with no evidence of disease for 11 months. Then, my cancer recurred, so I completed chemotherapy again. The cancer returned after another 8 months.

Since my cancer was Stage IV when it was discovered, my oncologist said I would be in treatment for the rest of my life.

That was huge for me. Not only would I be dealing with the mobility issues, but I would also be dealing with the side effects of treatment permanently.”
