- When 9-year-old Kaylee Tolleson started having stomach pains last year, doctors initially thought it was constipation. But an ultrasound later revealed a softball-sized tumor in her abdomen and she was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer. After missing part of her third-grade school year to undergo surgery and chemotherapy, Kaylee is now cancer-free! See how this brave girl who touched hearts across the country is now on a mission to help others battling the disease.

Even the medical profession say ovarian cancer is a disease of an older woman.. doctors need to listen to their patients more and don't assume they know best ....bless her xxx
@Lolly Pop unless she got the gardasil shot
My great-niece found out she had ovarian cancer at 13,no shot,she's been in remission 5 years now.
@@lmt6672 gardasil doesn't cause cancer. it prevents it.
@Lolly Pop there are some types of ovarian cancer that occur mostly in young girls.
Yes they do need to listen more but I think a lot of people who have pain they probably do just have constipation so if a doctor doesn’t listen they probably think it’s that first. 😢 But still if she kept coming back they definitely should have done an ultrasound sooner. I used to get pain there every morning. It took awhile but it went away after help. But my doctor referred me to get a scan to make sure it wasn’t something bad.
The fact that so many kids have to grow up so fast, lose their childhood, and suffer through all this pain and worry is absolutely heartbreaking.
I agree 😕
The little girl's pain was not managed properly. Today, no patients have to endure such a horrific pain and there are pain specialists who should be included in the medical care team.
Never heard of a 9 year old having it. Congratulations been a survivor
I was 13 when I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer on my second appointment about it with my pediatrician I told her I thought it was thyroid cancer but she did not believe me and told me not to believe everything I read on the internet. I was right, doctors really need to listen to their patients more. I hope she is doing well and am so happy she made it thought all of that and she is so so strong.
I had Breast cancer in 03 then I had thyroid cancer in 05 im doing great today
Artemis I do agree with you the drs they really need to start to listen too there patients the drs need to stop telling there patients don't believe everything you here on the internet we know are body when we think something is wrong
@@gaylemartin6995 But if drs listen to all patients their own diagnosis then half of the world would have a cancer. Now with the internet people love to diagnose by google like they dont need drs, im not surprised drs get mad about it. The wrong thing is that drs dont consider cancer when they have a young patient, they think: not possible cancer in such a young age/you are too young to have X sickness - this is the biggest problem. There is no age for cancer, is not sickness that touch old ppl.
Ur so strong💕
@@gaylemartin6995 so happy to hear ur doing well now💕
Imagine needing an ovary removed at such a young age. That so horrible, she’s so brave and mature. I hope she’s doing well today.
Me as well poor little girl she probably has no clue even what a overian is I honestly question stuff like this wishing I could talk to God to ask him why this or why that but that will never happen
@@rosemarietrevino3938 She is not a PoOr lItTLe gIrL. She's a survivor. She's won this battle.
@@knowingtruthisbliss2717 exactly. people need to stop acting like she's not strong
@@knowingtruthisbliss2717 calm down, they said nothing wrong she just feels bad for her, u guys find everything to be offended about these days
Ovaries grow back. If they want it to stay gone, they will have to keep removing it.
Sweet girl... she’s obviously so intelligent and well spoken. I so hope that she never has to deal with anything to do with cancer again!
My grandma passed away from ovarian cancer before I was born. But the initial doctor told her she needed to "toughen up" and deal with what he thought was "period pain". Unfortunately the cancer spread and by the time she was diagnosed it was too late. Awareness for this cancer definitely needs to be spread more.
That's horrible, most guys don't even understand "period pain" anyway.
Not believing women's pain and symptom complaints is a HUGE problem in the medical field. Which is ridiculous. Women generally have very high pain tolerance.
I have a similar story, except my age. I was 19 when Gramma died, but same reason. She had trouble that was kind of vague, fluid on the lungs and poor appetite, but the hospital found a big mass on her ovary. She had 1 ovary because she had an ovarian cyst many years before.
An ex-boyfriend of mine was told he had gallstones, several months later, he was diagnosed stage four pancreatic cancer and just passed in July 2024.

I have never heard of a child having ovarian cancer. That must be so extremely rare
Hi, I'm a pediatric nurse and I was also shocked because I treated a 9 year old girl with an aggressive ovarian cancer. It is rare, but it does happen unfortunately
I had a friend who had it at 11. She’s nearly 30 now.
Yes me neither it I never heard of child having that young
Ĺù
My dad worked with a guy whose daughter had it at 16. She passed. It was a shock to us
Cancer has no age people need to learn that this little girl could've passed.... I hope she has a full life
Obviously she could have passed. People realize that. Hopefully it never returns and she can have a healthy long life.
My grandma got Alzheimer’s and breast cancer
The doctors need to learn this. They are so quick to send people home and make it seem like people are lying. My cousin was 19 and had colon cancer and they never tested him for it. He was stage four and had black urine before they tested him for it. They kept saying only people over 50 get it.
@@jessi9775 i was diagnosed with anorectal cancer last year. Doctor didnt listen to me until the tumor grew to be 4cm and hurt to sit. They dont even begin colon screenings until 50.
@@sugarfree8303 i am 32 and had alkaline phosphotase blood test very high. No symptoms, but the md did a colonoscopy and endoscopy. Nothing found. Still searching for answers.
I have tears in my eyes because l knew someone who had ovarian cancer.She was 13 .She died when she was 14 !! That was in 1977 l think about her every day because she was to this day the nicest person l have ever known .It should have been me she wanted to live so badly RIP CHRISTINE I LOVE. AND MISS YOU SO MUCH !!!! HUG MY GRAND DAUGHTER & MY HUSBAND FOR ME
RIP❤❤❤

Verna, I'm so sorry to read of the pain you have endured. Please don't feel it should have been you. God knows why. We must trust in HIM. I pray you can one day let go of this guilt you feel. You deserve to be happy and at peace. God Bless You.
@@LemireCassie Thank you for caring !! Taking it one day at a time
Soo sorry for your lost may she Rest In Peace
I had ovarian cancer stage 1 and cancer free for 5 years.
@Ann B I had pain in the pelvic area.
Congrats
Wow you were very lucky to catch Ovarian Cancer at stage 1
@@carolholmes6352 I agree! You were super lucky to have caught it so early! Happy to hear all is well and I pray you continue to have a long, healthy life!
Wowwww. And they checked for OC
I don’t know why they didn’t do a ultrasound on the first visit. She’s so young. I hope she is doing well today.
ultrasonic sometimes is hard to get, I need to change a doctor to get one.
@@yanasosnovskaya864
Hard to get Where? What...
The same reason they didn't help my son till he almost died
@@tikdoe7563 in doctor's office. I asked for it, the doctor refused to send me to ultrasound. In US, you can't do it without doctor's approval.
In Germany this won't happen
What a beautiful, sweet and extremely smart girl. So glad she is cancer free.
i have nothing but respect for this girl. strong as diamonds.
I have a friend who had ovarian cancer. One of her first symptoms was constipation. Apparently this is known as one of the presenting symptoms of the disease. I am so glad this little one is a survivor. God Bless her and her family.
It really aggravates me that drs so often pass off abdo pain as constipation. If any dr had examined this poor girl properly they would have found this sooner. Drs did this to me also, it was horrific
She show the pain was on her right side, that could have been an appendicitis also.
I agree! And she even said that she could feel a lump that was solid in her abdomen. That was in October, and because of the doctors' inaction, the poor girl had to wait until March to be diagnosed. Meanwhile, the cancer spread to her stomach lining. I hope that she stays healthy and that the cancer does not return. She is very strong and brave!
i had no idea young girls could get ovarian cancer, i knew young women got it but I thought it was a cancer you get post puberty. What a gorgeous young fighter, wishing her and her family all the very best.
Last year the five year old daughter of a former student had the exact same thing. She was in kindergarten.
My dad died bez of lung cancer.. It's been ten days since my dad died.. I feel the pain of Cancer survivor n also there family .. I missed my dad so much

I’m sorry for your loss ❣️
I am now 33 years of age my heart goes out to this girl, when I was 9 years old I was in the same situation, I was in year 5 doing my class as normal, started having pains, teacher let me go to the toilet a few times before noticing something not right, had to go to drs then straight to hospital, my mum came with me and I still remember everything to this day, not nice at all, but,, here I am now, I got all clear after 3 months I now have a beautiful nearly 14 year old boy. Live life to the full, my heart goes out to this girl. Xxxxxx
God bless you
Congratulations and best to you and yours!!!!!
Wow that’s amazing. I’m so glad you are doing well now! Is this rare in children? Does it happen once the child starts menstruating, or can it happen before?
@rosey rose kirk... 🌹My Queen 👑 May God continue to bless you and yours today and always🙋🏽♀️💕
Congratulations babygirl. My great-niece was 13 when she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
She's been in remission 5 years now. She's in her freshman year of college.
My God what a brave girl! I'm an adult oncology nurse and see this cancer in adult women. So sad to see this cancer is 9 year old. It's tough chemo and surgery. God bless her. So glad she's in remission.
I was 27, constant bleeding, evident lump could be seen on lower abdomen. Ultrasound tech made the "huh!" sound, followed by, "I'd like to do an internal U/S as I can't see your ovary". I had a large mass removed from my ovary. I was so lucky though, it was not cancerous and I was able to get pregnant the following year.
It was scary for me at the time, and I can't imagine what it would be like for a 9 year old, her parents, and for the prognosis to be cancer. She is incredibly brave!
Was it an ovarian cyst? Those things are so painful.
Oh, my heart. She is adorable. I'm so glad she's cancer free.
September 7th 2012 my sister passed from ovarian cancer. She had clear cell carcinoma, the most aggressive type, but she was 47, still too young, not 9. Teal is the color and I still wear the ribbon to this day. God bless this young life that survived. May she live till she’s 90 plus and maybe, just maybe, she can bring the cure to so many that are in desperate need.
Congratulations on beating ovarian cancer Kaylee and for bringing awareness to this form of Cancer. My beautiful Mom passed away after fighting a brave battle with this form of cancer. She was only 49. Misdiagnosed and the tumor had tripled in size by the time she was diagnosed correctly. Just as you so beautifully put it, listen to your body. May God bless you with a beautiful, happy and healthy life sweet girl.
I am so sorry about your mom. I lost my mom to lung cancer in 2011. She was 51 at that time. I know how hard it is. You never really "get over" it, you just get use to the pain.
@@Kristen242008 Thank you Kristen.
@@Kristen242008 You are very right about you never really get over it. It’s like living with a gaping hole, it’s always there and it never fully heals you just learn to live with it,
I’m sorry about your loss. My mom also passed away from ovarian cancer in 2016. She was only 45. This cancer is no joke and desperately needs more research to find ways to detect it early on..it not called the silent killer of women for no reason.
@@Saturn890 That's exactly the case and what's needed.
She's so brave! and so mature too. I'm so happy for her that she is cancer free!
Dear Kaylee. Praying for you and hope you're never have this disease again. I'm a cancer survivor. And i know what its like to go through chemo. Stay strong and healthy.
Father God please Bless this beautiful young child of your ’s with a lifetime of health blessings happiness amen 🙏🏽
God bless this beautiful little girl I'm glad to cancer free
my daughter is 6 years old and i can not imagina how kaylees parents must have felt. wow. such a strong family!
Gods blessings.
Thank you for sharing her story. What a very brave girl. She could do this because of her loving family and friends. I am a 13 year stage 4 ovarian cancer survivor who was first diagnosed as GERD. She’s an inspiration to me
What led doctors to diagnose GERD when it was your ovary?
She’s so brave and so lovely, and her parents are brilliant for taking her to the emergency room with the stomach pains, those instincts are there! ❤️
My dr, that I had ignored my symptoms, finally I went to my daughters doctor and he felt it. Long hall for me. I wish you well. May God Bless you and your Angels surround you. The ringing is the best. Xo
Kaylee I am 57 years old and I gotta tell you that you are an inspiration to me and no doubt to a lot of people who are going through a similar battle. Your journey has been at times so tough but you don’t give up instead you push and you do it with a big smile across your beautiful face.
Kaylee is a great person, and one of the best figure skaters I’ve ever had the pleasure to skate with! I thank god that she has gotten better, and has gotten rid of her cancer! You have such a nice, kind, heart! I wish you the best of luck!! (Also... I saw myself in the video while running the fun run for Kaylee Strong, Lol!)
A child do not deserved to go through this do sad hope this little angel is better today
This is horrible. I hope she makes a full recovery
I met a 13 little girl who had ovaries cáncer, she was so beatiful and joy ☹️ she did not recover. She passed away some years ago.
Horrendous experience for anyone, unimaginable for a little active girl 💔😰. It is unfortunate they dismissed her for months, it gave the cancer cells time to grow and spread ...unforgivable.😱 best wishes for a full recovery, 🛐 blessings 🙏✝️🕊️🛐
You are right. Drs need to start rethinking their approach. They operate on the idea "think horses not zebras". They need to start thinking a possiblity of zebras from the first min that they meet the patient. Insurance plays an overwhelming and disgraceful role in this also. Too many times they deny or restrict access to care. Doing nothing more than stepping over dollars to pick up dimes.
I wouldn't say this unforgivable as someone has said. We think women get it, certainly not 9 year olds.
Why would a doctor think Oh this child has Ovarian Cancer .
I can think of more horrendous things that are unforgivable....how about parents assaulting their own children or Catholics ministers sexually assaulting children...or the gas chambers in the ww2 war.
It's because older women mostly get it, not 9 year old girls.
@@lee-annebarrett366 doctors should hv tried their best to figure it out, and doing a couple of scanns dont hurt(if they are not Often) so even if it is unusual it should still be an option!
May she grow up to be a healthy , strong ,thriving women, and able to have kids. God bless you little angel
What an amazing young lady!!!
Totally agree.... So happy that she finished treatment and she is cancer free. She has such a positive, grown up attitude.
She is a gorgeous little lady
My son was much older than Kaylee but same thing with him.His dr diagnosed him with constipation. Didnt even look at medical records or disregarded them apparently ! Family history of colon cancer, stomach cancer, breast cancer and many others. By the time he went into emergency room in extreme pain he was diagnosed with colon cancer that had spread to involve tumors all through his mesenteric area. He was diagnosed with stage 4 and given 2 months to live. And that's what he got. 8 wks. When someone hasnt had a bm in 10 days it isnt constipation! Ya dont prescribe Senna again and send them home ! Well not a real Dr anyway ! I had better shut up now before it turns into a heartfelt rant ! Am so glad Kaylee made it through ! What a thing for a 9 yr old to face! God bless her abundantly,!!
Bless you and your son!
Im sorry to hear this story. I dont trust doctors so much and am always making sure they check things even if its just an assumption. I know they hate to be pestered by parents but, its our job to reassure our child's safety. May God bless you and may your son rest in peace.
Hello Kaylee I had the same cancer that you have and I’m a cancer survivor to.
So am I ! Praise God for your healing as well! You go girl!!
congratulations to you both.
What a strong person you are 💖💖💖
Thank you Jesus!!!
This is so freaking touching man. What a brave little soul, so happy she made it through 🙌🏽
She is literally so brave and so optimistic during this horrible event. God bless her and her family, she is so brave and strong and I hope she's doing better now!🥺❤
I can only imagine how hard this was for all 3 of you. I was 16 when I was diagnosed with stage 2 uterine cancer, I can only imagine being so young and having to go through something so trying. All power to you my girl. ❤️❤️
Hope you’re doing well
I wish “they” would quit telling ppl they are cancer free until the 5 yr mark!
I wish her the best.
That’s just sooo unnecessary...🙄
True
Many people don't understand that cancer - free and ' no evidence of disease ' are two different things
Yes its a very scary thing that the cancer can come back. My best friend got cancer when we were 5, and was told she was cancer free, and then it came back a few years later. She fought very hard and has been cancer free for years now.
I am 62 y/o and I had it when I was six and thank the Lord I'm still alive. At that time there wasn't another documented case. I had two healthy children but did have an emergency hysterectomy at 26 but other than that have done just fine. There is hope.
Amen amen!!! Thank you Jesus for healing you. Please spread the news of having this at 6 y.o. God Bless You
We have the ovarian cancer gene in my family. I had a tumor but we caught it before it got bad. Congratulations Kaylee! Thanks for modeling a great attitude!
Wow! What a strong soul. Congratulations Kaylee. I had the same thing when I was 22. That was 38 years ago.
this is mind blowing... kaylee went to school with my little brother! she’s so brave 🤍🤍

Kaylee : If I have seen few bravest children in my whole life, no doubt you are one of them :)
so sorry you had cancer I’m glad she doesn’t have it anymore I’m glad your feeling better
She had such a great attitude during it all. I would have never been like her.
Geez she's so young I can't imagine going through that so young. I'm glad the doctors listened to her and her parents were supportive!
I also had cancer when I was 4. It was missed from birth. Finally once found it was stage 4. You are such a brave girl and we are all fighters. Well done sweetie
What a beautiful child of god. I’m so happy she beat cancer but for the ones that get called home early they are not any less of a fighter in gods eyes. My mom passed in 93 from the same cancer.
My mom passed away from complications of stage 4 lung and liver cancer
I’m so sorry
She is so adorable
I just survived ovarian cancer myself! I was stage 2, yet i had a egg plant size tumer. I also never had any symptoms of having cancer. Until i had a busted cyst that lead me to emergency surgery where they found my cancer. My heart goes out to Kaylee! Such a strong little fighter. I thought i was young at 35 but to be 9. Your so blessed to have the support as well! Support means everything its something i didnt have much of but stayed strong and like you fought strong! Your a bwautoful soul Kaylee. God Bless you...
My friend ice skates too and it’s sad to see a fellow skater fighting such a horrible battle, and she skates so well
Firstly can I say how amazing and strong your beautiful girl is, I have heard of this but never in a young child. Really hope she is doing well and maybe back to doing things she loved like Ice Skating ⛸ sending my live to you all and take care 💖
Wow she is so strong and amazing, you go girl
She is soooo young. My heart goes out to her and her parents. 🌈❤️🌷
Thank God! So happy Kaylee is cancer free. God Bless and Godspeed to you Kaylee. You are a warrior and now one of the elite in the group of survivors!!!💞🙏🏻
Keep it up Kaylee!!! What a scary diagnosis....even more scary for a sweet baby girl.
Incredibly brave family.
Bloody hell, what an amazing inspirational little girl
I'm so happy for this girl and her family. I wish them a long happy life. Blessings.
Why didn't the doctors feel her abdomen? She should have been diagnosed much sooner. I hope this brave child lives a long and happy life!
Either that or an Ultrasound or X-ray. Honestly, at least freaking CHECK when the kid says she can feel something hard in her stomach! Goddamn idiots.
I’ll thanks God for her, now she’s doing fine. Glory to God for ever .🙏🏻
Kaylee - thanks for raising awareness by telling your story. This is not a well known cancer and the symptoms are often mistaken for minor health issues. You are strong - mentally and physically - my best wishes to you and your loving mum and dad from London UK ❤️👏🏻🙏🏻
Just insane a 9yrold gets this cancer. I’m sure they did genetic tests on her. So incredibly brave! I have been through the simply horrible chemo involved in gyno cancers. Amazing!
Strong girl. She's amazing
Sweet angel you have mom and dad!
She has a nice voice . Cancer could have taken this beautiful young lady. Thank God she really survived. Congratulations to the whole family
Beautiful brave child. May cancer never return and her life be filled with much happiness and beauty
What a beautiful young lady..
The same thing happened to me but with kidney disease, I was diagnosed on Christmas Day. I always relate to these stories with kids who go thru things like this so hardcore
This video is so lovely.
Amazing, what a lovely child, and very talented. A lovely smile
my grandmother just beat cervical cancer for the second time, I am wishing all the best to this lovely young lady and her family. cancer is a terrible disease, thank you for sharing your inspiration Kaylee. I am so proud of you, what a warrior!
Almost all cervical cancers are caused by HPV. Please get your teenagers the HPV vaccine. Some people arent genetically able to fight off HPV. It runs in families. If your body can't fight off this virus, it will cause cervical cancer. It can also cause mouth, throat and cancer of the "backside." HPV is extremely common virus. Most people get exposed in their lives. It is an STD. Many can fight off the virus, but if your body can't, it is very dangerous.
Hey little 아미. Glad you made it through. Take care, stay happy and enjoy your life to the fullest.
FIRE! ARMY! Borahe 💜
Bless her heart, shes so cute and innocent. Why do things like this have to happen to children.
She's got the cutest voice ever!
This child is a total inspiration to everyone she is beautiful and has come through so much you go girl tell the world your story your mum and dad love you so much what a wonderful little lady xx
OMG I’m crying I’m so happy for you Kailey I hope you have a great life and just know your beautiful the way you are even if you don’t have hair
Kaylee's voice reminds me of Grace Vanderwaal:) Hope she lives out the rest of her life cancer-free!
God bless you, strong intelligent girl! My friend’s daughter was having symptoms when she was a teenager and I encouraged her to take her daughter to an OB/GYN even though she was so young. It turned out she had ovarian cancer. She had surgery and survived.
