How I Live with Stage 4 Breast Cancer: Brittney Beadle's Story | The Patient Story

  • In this cancer vlog, Brittney Beadle shares her experience with living with stage 4 breast cancer. When she was 18, she discovered a lump, but was dismissed by doctors because they said "she was to young to get cancer." A few months later, the lump grew and her nipple inverted, leading her to get a biopsy that showed it was cancerous. At first doctors thought it was an early stage but after her double mastectomy they discovered it was metastatic, stage 4.
    She opens up about the emotional impact of the surgery, her ongoing treatment, including the side effects she faces, such as nausea and fatigue. She also talks about the importance of advocating for yourself and finding the right team of doctors.

      God bless you in your fight. You are so young. It’s a rotten disease but I got it at the other end of the life cycle. Stage 4 at 85. Keep on keeping on and continue doing all the outside sports and fun things. I force myself to garden and work outside in my yard. And I feel another tumor again, so I a just keep on keeping on. Never quit!

    I also have had a double mastectomy due to aggressive cancer. I was a 34HH. I was lucky that it was picked up on my FIRST mammogram at 48. I am now 54 and I got the 'all clear' in June?! I remind myself every day how lucky I am. I was diagnosed with non-classical hEDS at the same time. Ive been fighting pain since I was 12, and I have had lung, heart, bowel, bladder, adrenal, thyroid, bone, joint, blood disease too. We are not dying of disease, we are living with it!! 🎉

    My first BC diagnosis was in 1999 at age 27, and back then they didn’t really know how to treat us young patients. It was rare to have BC at that age. I was lucky that I had a surgeon who, though he didn’t think it was cancer, listened to me and did a biopsy. I was stage I when diagnosed the first time. In 2019, almost 20 years later, I received a new primary BC diagnosis. This time stage 2A. This time, a double mastectomy, chemo, and endocrine therapy. Scanxiety and PTC with cancer patients/survivors is real… and an often under considered aspect of the cancer journey. Bless you and best wishes for your journey and continued regression of disease and returning to NED.

    ❤ What Cancer Cannot Do
    Cancer is so limited...It cannot cripple love. It cannot shatter hope.
    It cannot corrode faith. It cannot eat away peace. It cannot destroy confidence.
    It cannot kill friendship. It cannot shut out memories. It cannot silence courage.
    It cannot reduce eternal life. It cannot quench the Spirit. Thank you for sharing your story. ❤❤❤❤❤

It truly is a show up and stand up against cancer. It is wicked but you can find your way through it. Faith really helped me.

    BRAVA! ❤Her approach to viewing scans in a positive way as a gift, is admirable. My approach is the opposite, I shut down and start thinking how things are going to go downhill if my NED has come to an end. It's debilitating and making me waste the precious gift of the good times between scans. I'm twice as old as she is and I hope I can learn to do it her way.

    • @Ceerads
      @Ceerads Год назад +2

      I agree that Brittney’s infectious high spirits (at least in this video) are very admirable. But I was and am more like you. I tend towards pessimism. I think that, to a certain extent, people are born with a tendency towards pessimism or optimism. When I was dx with breast cancer (at 51), I “knew” I’d die soon. It’s been 24 years and I’m still here and now more afraid of getting dementia than of cancer. I’m just sharing this because there’s nothing wrong with not being optimistic (I know you know this, but I still want to emphasize it). But learning to not dwell on the worst outcome sure helps us feel better. Wishing all the best to you and all of us who’ve been diagnosed.

    • @sandrajollie2123
      @sandrajollie2123 4 месяца назад

      Did the trial worked? Most chemo medication are very toxic to liver. Liver can’t heal when it is often bombarded with poison. I had to stop my medication bc it was hitting my liver. Now they wanted to try a new remedy but when I researched it said that can be worst on liver. So I declined the treatment and looking for another opinion. Doctors don’t know what they are doing. Some enjoy clinical trials. Not all are honest with their patients. They don’t care about us.

    I just want to share that none of us knows how long we have on this earth. But Jesus knows all things. He knows the unknown. Jesus is our only hope and salvation. Jesus came to die on the cross and shed his blood so that we can be forgiven of our sins. And, He was buried and rose again on the third day so that we can have eternal life. The most good news that anyone can hear is that Jesus made a way for us to be saved from spending an eternity in hell. Heaven is real and awaits us who are saved by Jesus Christ, the Lord! Born-again believers have a blessed hope that only Jesus can give. Fear God and Worship Him. JESUS IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED! Call upon the Name of the Lord and thou shalt be saved! Jesus is coming back to judge the earth! Repent for Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Hope you come to have a personal relationship with Jesus! For there is none like Him!
