How many young or younger people have to be diagnosed with cancer before the medical profession stop saying 'Oh you're too young for cancer'? Don't they know cancer does not discriminate against age, gender, ethnicity, etc? 🙄
Clinicians use probability to try and develop a diagnosis. Rule out the most probable causes then move to the next most probable diagnoses. The vast majority of cancers are age related which is why doctors tend to think of other problems with young people. I was surprised at the large proportion of older people in the chemo chairs when I was treated for cancer.
That's probably iodine deficiency. We have a lot of glans. Lack of iodine damage them and eventually cancer. Testicular, lymph, overies, prostat. And breast like her
the age bias is still a real thing unfortunately. if you look cancer amongst older people is falling sharply where as cancer amongst younger populations are increasing 10 fold. scientist and oncologist have no idea why yet.
This same thing happened to a friend of mine who was 28. The exception is that she lived in a fairly rural area and all the doctors kept blowing her off. By the time they got the time and money to get to a big, decent hospital, she was stage 4. She fought it off, had a double mastectomy, chemo, etc. 2 years later it came back, in her spine. They tried to do the chemo etc again for 2 more years, but it just didn't work. She passed away leaving a 12 year old son and a husband, her parents and 3 brothers behind, along with a bazillion friends who loved her. If you've got something that you can feel, like the lump my friend had and this lady did, don't let the doctors blow you off! Male doctors are particularly bad about doing this. Keep going until you find someone who will listen to you!
I was 37, diagnosed stage 4 Breast Cancer, they say i had it for probably 8-10 years before diagnosis. Its now been nearly 6 years, thankful for every day ❤
Samantha, you are such a strong young woman and have all my admiration for the way you face your situation. I hope you bring awareness for young women. Keep fighting for yourself, your lovely daughter, husband and family. You are already a winner! God bless you!! 🙏🏽🙌🏼❤️
Praying your little daughter has her Mommy by her side for many decades. Hoping medical research continues to find new modalities that keep that menace at bay! Please keep us informed of your progress, Samantha.
I was told my sister had thyroid cancer when I was 16. She is older and was 28 at the time. They caught it while she was pregnant and she refused to have an abortion to be treated because she had struggled to get pregnant. The cancer spread to her lungs and after she had her son she had surgery to remove her thyroid but they could not get it all. At one point they gave her 6 months to live. Im 33 now. She is still alive! She still has cancer! No one knows when you are gonna leave this world except God! I know a lot of people say random shit online but this is 1000% the truth! I really hope someone reads this so they know to always have hope!
@@SamanthaL no problem! I'm always happy to tell others about my sisters ongoing battle with cancer! It amazes me everyday and I still hold hope one day she will beat cancer 100%!
It never ceases to amaze me when cancer fighters and survivors share their stories with such bravery and calmness. Samantha, I hope that you are doing well today and supported unconditionally by your loved ones.
I understand your frustration with mis-diagnosing you because of your age. My son was finally diagnosed with Parkinson’s at a young age after several drs dismissed him as having a mental problem. They literally said it was all in his head and then one Dr said he had only a short time to live. We have to advocate for ourselves. I am saddened to see many younger aged women with breast cancer. I am in my 70’s with recent diagnosis of stage 4 MBC. I can only imagine what the future holds for me but I feel like I have had a good long life. ❤
Wow. I hope you have quite a while longer here to go still! You are at your prime. 70?!?! You are still very young. I hope then most high sees You through!
Whoever is saying it’s selfish and wrong to choose to have a baby is enraging, anyone can die anytime, tomorrow isn’t promised, if she is was to succumb to this awful disease she gave her husband the most beautiful gift and he will always have a piece of her that lives on through their child. I’m glad she got to experience motherhood it’s a beautiful thing and I pray she can live a long time to see her baby grow.
@92 Tampachick perfectly said! 🎯 and not just her husband but her siblings and parents also. It is not selfish. I’m so glad she is experiencing the joy of motherhood! My SIL and brother were so happy they had their daughters when she was diagnosed and eventually died of stomach cancer. She lived a full life! The girls were still at home and that was sad, but all four of them have no regrets except that she got sick and died. But her bravery and faith inspired us all.
It is selfish if you purposely have a child knowing that your life might be short. Notice that in your comment you wrote "gave *her husband* a beautiful gift" and "I'm glad *she* got to experience motherhood," with no thought of the lifetime of pain the child would go through not having a mother.
I am so proud of you that you are sharing your story .. I have breast cancer , and am a nurse .. Stage 1 , BRACA 2 +, ER and Prog+..had double mastectomy , started on tamoxifen .. My wish and prayer for you is that you will be able to have years with your husband and daughter .. Keep up the faith ..
Wow-she has done a lot in her life which you can tell from all the pictures in different places-that’s so good-also GREAT DECISION TO HAVE A BABY!! Makes life do much sweeter and there is just no comparison to life with your precious child and a life without that person, or 2 or however many you have. Wishing this patient nice healthful life with her husband and daughter🌺☘️
@@annas7892has nothing to do with incompetence on their part. It has to do with insurance companies never approving these necessary testing after ACA became part of the healthcare in the USA. There’s not enough drs to fill all the medical fields as drs are making 1/5th of what a salary once was. Less graduates are going into the field now the govt has a hand in how they handle their patients & the multitude of additional paperwork & politics that is now part of the healthcare system. If the ACA was suspended or done reconfigured it would go a long way in drs being able to provide the best care to their patients & allow them to not have to jump through the red tape to get a simple MRI for at risk patients.
Hello samantha, l've been following you since you had the diagnosis 5 yrs ago. I'm happy that you are still around. There is a lot of hope nowadays that you can live for years. It seems cancer that hormone breast cancer is becoming chronic. All the best and l wish you many years of good quality of life. 🌻

Amen!! Thank you for that! I’m in my second year post breast cancer and I have a scan coming up…so thank you and yes, God is our ONLY hope for all of our life! And He has the final word! God bless you and your family!
Thank you for that. I have breast cancer withymph node involvement and grade 3. Stats say poor prognosis, but a year later and after treatment (continuing with targeted and hormone therapy) I feel fine. Just taking each day as it comes.
Praying for her complete healing in the name of Jesus. May he perform a supernatural surgery on her body and remove all traces of cancer from it! In the name of Jesus, Amen!
Many women are getting breast cancer in there twenties ! The doctors do know this it’s so annoying I was diagnosed at 29 get rid of it and it’s back 😢love to you Sam ❤
Cancer has no barriers when it comes to age. I live in the UK and I had menopause at 40, I'm now 56 with fibromyalgia, my lower 4 discs in my spine are prolapsed and I have osteoarthritis and osteopinia along with spondylosis and ME/CFS. The pain in my body has been a little different for quite a few months and although I have ME/CFS I've been extremely exhausted and this isn't the normal effects I experience with my health issues. Due to brain fog and depression I forgot to go for my routine mammogram. I mentioned this to my eldest son but prior to this a few weeks before I noticed a bump between my clavicle and sternum and it's a little tender and looks like a bruise/red inflamed mark. Everyone kept saying I'd probably knocked it or was my osteoarthritis. On the 10th of this month I was laying in bed watching the TV and decided to do a self breast check and I found a largish lump in my right breast and on checking it it has the same markings as the bump I have. To be honest I panicked and spoke to my sons and they said I had to go to my GP the next day. My eldest son went with me and I've been referred to the breast clinic for a mammogram, ultrasound and a biopsy on Thursday morning of the 25th of July. My elder sister had breast cancer at 51 and luckily she's survived and is now 65. I didn't mention to my GP about the different pain I've been having in my lower back and body but after listening to you I will definitely mention it on Thursday. My eldest son is going with me and he will keep me calm and ask questions and retain the information given. I can't say I'm not petrified because I am, even at my age. My sons only have me and they are my world. I pray you make a full recovery and live a long and happy life with your darling daughter and husband along with your family. I found this video very helpful and very informative. God bless you ❤xxx
I'm praying for you.. I was also diagnosed 5/6/23, with stage IIIA Adenocarcinoma small cell lung cancer in my left lung, I had a lobectomy and started chemo.. Then on January 3,2024, I was again diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma in my right lung, and I should be having my last immunotherapy treatment in September of 2024💪🏾😊
I am 29 now, but i got a kidney transplant at 25,i was warned that the donor had mono ( kissing disease 🤣 ) and i had not had it yet. There was a 25% chance i would get mono, and of that 25% there was a 1% chance it would mutate to lymphoma. Sure enough, about a month later i had SEVERE abdominal pain and went to emerge. After blood tests and an MRI i was told i had lymphoma. It didn't even phase me tbh, i took a few seconds before looking at the doctor calmly and saying " ok, so how do we make it gone? " was nearly admitted to the psych ward 🤣. 6 months later after chemo every other week, cancer free. Almost at the 5 year mark now, and doing just fine. Cancer never HAS to be the end, so long as you don't lose hope and listen to what your body tells you, nothing is impossible. ❤
Love you Samantha, praying you have a very long and happy life with your family. If anyone can figure it out, it's you. You're so smart and so determined
I’m so tired of hearing about people getting cancer, especially in later stages. These medical professionals know how to manage this stuff but it’s all about money and greed. This hit home with me when my wife was recently diagnosed with metastatic TNBC after her doctor told her it was just a cyst and not to worry because she was premenopausal. 3 months later… she has the most aggressive breast cancer with the fewest treatment options.
That's sad. I'm sorry to hear that. How is your wife handling this? Aside from standard treatment, has she considered participating in a clinical trial? They are plenty of clinical trials for triple negative breast cancer. I wish your wife all the best, even though I must recognize that in later stages things become much more complicated. By the way, how old is your wife?
@@CarlaCaires-xc6zoThank you for the reply. My wife is handling it very well. She’s a fighter through and through and she stays really upbeat. She is currently in a trial with trodelvy and keytruda. After her first cycle they scaled her treatment back to 75% and that has been a godsend for her. No vomiting or nausea in the past 5 cycles. My wife was diagnosed at 48 years old. We’ve done a couple genetics testing and all of her genes have come back with zero mutations, so we’re wondering how/why this has happened, as she has no family history of any type of cancer.
I’m a Stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma patient - still marching on five years from diagnosis - sending you strength and admiration from Canada. Doctors alone can’t care for us - my GP initially waved off my belief I had any type of lymphoma despite symptoms and a bloodwork history I’d saved - and can’t decide for us what’s best. You’ve given careful thought to your treatments and what matters most in life, then made choices that were right for you. Sounds like you have a fabulous oncology team and a supportive, loving husband and family. Keep enjoying life as you continue telling The Big C to take a major hike! ❤️🇨🇦❤️
Thank goodness for darling Gray giving you that loving hug. Even though I know you are still fighting, you found it because of Gray loving you so much. You have come such a long way and I hope you know we have been with you all the way and will continue to be so . Love to you all Our Samantha, Gray and lovely little baby girl 👶 xxxx
You are right about it being her decision, but not about it being her body. A baby is not a mother's body, it's the child's body. The same goes for women who choose to abort, they say it's their body, but it's not, it's the child's body.
Thanks for showing us the interview! I think it can be so helpful to others! I had cancer ten years ago so I've been interested in your case. So happy to see the good things in your life. You are a fighter!!! Am praying for you!!💕💕
Hi Samantha. I’ve been watching you for years on your channel. What a great presentation to bring awareness you are one of the strongest women. I know God bless you and your family.🙏🏻
What an amazingly strong woman. Hearing everything she has gone through is eye opening. I can understand how much having a child has helped her. They really do give you a purpose. I was diagnosed with stomach cancer when my son was 5 and I have gone through 6 years of hell. I refuse to have him grow up without his Mum. Though some days, I know that if I didn’t have him, I would have given up. It’s hard and the bad days make you just want it all to be over. The pain gone. Knowing he needs me is what gets me through the weak moments. Such up the pain and just push through.
That’s motherhood for you, the biggest blessing in every way. I’m so happy for you beautiful, you are strong and courageous and your baby girl knows it! ❤❤
I was also told i was “to young” to have ovarian cancer but i was stage 2 ovarian & endometrial cancer! Advocate for yourself these drs today go by the book & instead of facing reality.
I found out that the doctors actually go by the insurance companies... and it could easily have cost me my life. Hope you are doing well. I'm an 11 year endometrial cancer survivor. Unfortunately, it looks like I'll be in pain for the rest of my life from the side effects of the treatments, though. A timely hysterectomy after the birth of our 3rd and final child would have spared me from having cancer and being in pain for the rest of my life.
Great interview Samantha, I have watching you from when you got your diagnosis. Praying that you will many years to see your daughter become a beautiful young woman like you ❤
While there has been an increase in cancer diagnoses among younger people, it is still the case that the vast majority of cancer diagnoses are among older people. Nevertheless researchers are working to understand the increases that have been observed. They can't just magically produce an answer out of nowhere. However the likely causes are related to diet, obesity and sedentary lifestyles, which are factors we can do something about without having to wait for clinical explanations.
@@ciuffoarancione8929 cancer in younger people has been increasing since the 90's. Not since just 3 years ago. There has been no significant increase since 2021.
Thank you so much for sharing your story and sending you so much love and well wishes. What a messy experience you had before diagnosis. I hear so many similarities to my journey. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 36 and told this was too young. I was told 3 times there was nothing wrong before a biopsy. Even though it is less common breast cancer does occur in younger women. I wish there was more awareness around this. X
Oh it makes me so mad, I have been working in the health field for my entire working career and saying "you are too young for cancer" is unacceotable!! Even if you were the only person under 25 to be diagnosed with cancer ever, you have cancer and the doctors ignored to possibility. To me it is misdiagnosis and you should sue the pants off the doctor or doctors that ignored the possiblity. There is a youtube chanel about a beautiful young lady who passed away way to young because she was ignored for the same darn reason and like you spent the remainder of her life educating people on avocating for yhourself. Thankyou for unselfishly doing the same. The beautiful soul I am talking about is Jenny Apple @The Apples
I LOVE @TheApples channel!! ❤ I followed along Jenny’s journey and it broke my heart when she passed. Their kids are so precious! And her husband Kyle is a saint of a man ❤
😢😢pretužno i svima vama svaka čast na priči i smirenosti ja bih poludila od straha...same smrti.😢😢😢❤ Dao vam Bog dragi zdravlja i da poživite bez te strašne pošasti.😢
I’m so proud of you for being so open and sharing your story, Samantha. I’ve followed you since the beginning and even though I am nearly twice your age, I’m so inspired by your strength and wisdom.💕💕💕
I have been following your channel for a few months now. It's great that you are sharing your experience on The Patient Story, where many will benefit from hearing about your experience.
I totally agree one person is enough to say that it can happen. Growing up we never worried about cancer stats show it has doubled and patients are getting younger it’s scary
I have followed sam video for a long time , such a beautiful caring wife ( mum , and trying to spread awareness and help others , sam because i had a lot of family pass with cancer , people told me oh have hysterectomy , safer , i wanted ti be a mum , well i have my two girls , i have my grandson , i was diagnosed December with a blood cancer , if i had listened ( the joy of my daughters i would have never known ❤️❤️❤️
We constantly here the message early detection saves lives, however getting your GP (uk) to listen is a real problem, my daughter who was a similar age found a lump in her breast and her GP who had a trainee with him the day of my daughters appointment, asked if it was okay for her to do examinations, apparently she was brilliant and thorough and wanted to refer for further investigation, the GP said “why it’s hardly likely to be cancer at her age” my daughter was referred and fortunately it wasn’t cancer, we both hope that young trainee went on to be a great doctor and doesn’t get the apathetic attitude of so many
I'm 38 (before suggested screening commences for breast cancer in Ontario, Canada at 40). It happens to young women all the time but thankfully my doctor took my concerns seriously and referred me immediately for specialist diagnostic scans and biopsies. Turns out it was cancer and I am now cancer free after undergoing a lumpectomy and radiation. Her story is heartbreaking. I am blessed I had those extra years of being relatively healthy that she didn't .....
I am so very sorry for the loss of your breast. Yet, I am so thankful you did follow up quickly. And have been able to have a family ❤ I lost a niece to breast cancer when she was 21 - she 'wasn t Old Enough either'!!! It devastated our family. It's a horrible evil disease. I lost my left breast 4 years ago and it never gets easier.
I had ovarian cancer at 23. If I had not gotten pregnant, I would have died. It is as bad as stage 4 breast cancer it's 80% terminal with ovarian, but since I found it almost within 2 months after finding out I was pregnant, they removed that overie then after baby was born at 31 weeks we did a full hysterectomy because I had spots on my other overie they did a full hysterectomy at 26 after 2 years of treatment. I've been in remission since 2006.
Said my 4 mth old grand daughter who had cancer that was never seen in children only adults! She’s 15 yrs now and cancer free❤ had 150 chemo treatments at children’s Seattle along with other poisons to kill this horrible cancer! She was given 12 hrs to live at one time, God is absolutely good😇 bless all those who fight this disgusting disease
Glad you did this to make people aware! I have followed you from the beginning and have the utmost respect for you and your family. You are so brave and an inspiration for other cancer patients. You look great.🥰🇨🇦
Yay Samantha! Great summary of all the stuff you’ve been through… You could save lives by spreading awareness. Holding off on plans because you’re afraid of cancer coming back is something I know very well and even though I’m older than you, I’ve had to push fear aside and take risks and follow my heart. It’s hard to explain the bravery it takes to continue seizing opportunities when you know all too well how things can turn quickly. You inspire me… as usual! I made a decision to change jobs in my 50s and you along with some other young RUclipsrs, who are living life to the fullest, were often on my mind when I was making that tough but ultimately rewarding decision. Sending good vibes your way ❤️
If doctors could be sued for negligence every single time someone is misdiagnosed everything would change. How many times doctors dismiss your symptoms just because you don’t fit the criteria either because of your age or because you don’t have “enough “ symptoms all together to meet their standards to order more tests.
The fact that there was an opening for a biopsy, right at that moment, is so rare. Devine intervention. Make a low carb, low sugar diet part of your lifestyle. Cancer needs sugar to survive and grow. That is part of how cancer is found on a PET scan.
Thank you for sharing your story. ❤ Wishing you much good health! My friend last year had stage 4 breast cancer and the doctors didn’t recommend mastectomy for her either because the cancer had spread to her brain. This was last year and she’s doing well today. I’m a stage 2 hormone receptor positive breast cancer survivor. I was age 42 and this was in 2008. They recommended mastectomy in one breast but I opted for both breasts in case it showed up in the second breast down the road and for symmetry. I also had chemo - adriamiacin and cytoxin.
Always!Always! Get second opinions from different doctors away from each other!! It’s vital for your decisions! On any surgery or procedure, I didn’t have cancer but due to DV, have multiple spine issues with nerve involvement, that decision saved countless surgeries! ❤
This young woman is amazingly courageous and impressive. She was also incredibly unfortunate to have Stage IV breast cancer by the age of 22. It's not clear to me that there was some diagnostic failure simply because she wasn't immediately referred for testing. She was nevertheless referred quite quickly, from what I can gather, and since her diagnosis seems to have has excellent care. There is such a thing is over-testing which has been shown to harm patients and healthcare systems. I don't think it's for people in the comments to assme that her GP was negligent in some way, or that this is indivative of wider failings in healthcare, and that doesn't seem to be an axe that she is grinding. Of course diagnostic pathways can always be improved, and I'm sure that work is ongoing. We live at a time when the ability to diagnose, treat and cure all sorts of cancers is greater than it has ever been, and brlieve this young woman is testament to those successes more than any supposed failures.
Thank you so much for sharing your story and creating awareness . But I am so damn tired of doctors dismissing something just because a patient presents as atypical or they’re are “ too young” to have a medical condition. Doctors can be so dismissive of symptoms or disregard and reduce our anxiety down to “worrying about nothing” or being a hypochondriac. I’ve been waiting 9 months for a 4 month follow up . Again, thank you so much for sharing and you and your family will be in my prayers and I’m sure anyone else who watches this❤
I’m so tired of this same situation reoccurring it’s not taboo for young people to get cancer anymore medical professionals need to listen to their patients they know their body more than anybody else!
It’s sad how prominent cancer is now days. my family including myself have been tested for the BRCA gene mutation and we all have the gene my mom had breast cancer at 41 my sister had it at 30 and im in my early 20’s and I’ve already scheduled my surgery because I’d really rather not wait till I have cancer. Cancer doesn’t discriminate and I hope everyone who has it has an easy recovery 💖
For a doctor to say that a young patient is too young to get cancer is disgraceful and complete negligence and it can be a great danger to patients. People of all ages get cancer just not elderly people. Sorry!
Thank you for sharing your journey❤ Good morning, my daughter was recently diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. She’s 25 and begin her treatment this week. Click to follow her story.
You are in my prayers for you to be healed and that you will enjoy many, MANY YEARS of happiness with your husband and family. Mammogram technicians should only allow the doctors to tell you what is going on with your health. My mammogram technician had to call me and apologize for telling me the wrong thing. She may have been afraid that she was going to lose her job, but I didn’t tell the doctor what she had told me. I’m a 16 year breast cancer survivor, and STILL COUNTING. To God be the Glory. It sounds like you have some great doctors. You’re in my prayers for your complete recovery in the name of Jesus! Amen. 🙏🏽
Yeah, I had a doctor tell me my herniated cerebellum was benign. Yes, as in not cancer. No, it was not "benign" entirely, it almost killed me by partially crushing my brainstem. Her advice led to unnecessary pain and nerve damage.
Despite a lump in my breast the doctor denied me more tests stating cancer does not hurt and that lump hurt a lot. Two days ago and over a year after the doctor visit i had a double, radical mastectomy and ovoectomy due to squamous breast carcinoma !!
Samantha my Grandaughter has teeth issues and cold and heat issues as well due to chemo and radiation from four months to 15 months when her battle began and ended you are an inspiration and I love this that you are sharing your story❤ amazing you give life while others poo poo that beautiful experience😂 good for you! Look how you are thriving you beautiful strong lady warrior!! Rocking your life!! 💞😎 we are with you girl!! 😊
All the women out there, if breast cancer is in your family have your dr. Check for the HE. 2 gene.!! My cousin is still fight the cancer,she carries the gene. I asked my doc if she was aware of that gene and how it causes breast cancer, HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT!! I SUGGESTED SHE DO SOME RESEARCH. NO IDEA if she did any. I pass it on to anyone. I love my cousin HATE what she continues to sufer. Remember its called HER2 gene.
Thank you for this video. Congratulations on your baby! I hope you have many, many years with her and your husband and family. Young women should always have breast ultrasound in addition to a mammogram if there’s any symptom of a breast cancer. I’m old and still have dense breasts and have to have an annual ultrasound and mammogram. I had stage I breast cancer 25 years ago.
Thanks for sharing your story here Samantha. You are amazing. I have followed your story online at your channel for quite a few yrs. and during that time I too was battling BC. I admire your courage and determination. ♥♥
How many young or younger people have to be diagnosed with cancer before the medical profession stop saying 'Oh you're too young for cancer'? Don't they know cancer does not discriminate against age, gender, ethnicity, etc? 🙄
Exactly 😡
Clinicians use probability to try and develop a diagnosis. Rule out the most probable causes then move to the next most probable diagnoses. The vast majority of cancers are age related which is why doctors tend to think of other problems with young people. I was surprised at the large proportion of older people in the chemo chairs when I was treated for cancer.
That's probably iodine deficiency. We have a lot of glans. Lack of iodine damage them and eventually cancer. Testicular, lymph, overies, prostat. And breast like her
@@anothercampervanchannel it's iodine deficiency. You're glans ( needs a lot to be healthy)takes damage and cancer can occur
@@anothercampervanchannel why young Women get's overii and breast cancer.
The fact that a dr would say it can’t be breast cancer because of her age is incredibly dangerous.
The shocking thing is that this response is not uncommon.
the age bias is still a real thing unfortunately. if you look cancer amongst older people is falling sharply where as cancer amongst younger populations are increasing 10 fold. scientist and oncologist have no idea why yet.
Also breast cancer in very young people tends to be very aggressive 😢
This same thing happened to a friend of mine who was 28. The exception is that she lived in a fairly rural area and all the doctors kept blowing her off. By the time they got the time and money to get to a big, decent hospital, she was stage 4. She fought it off, had a double mastectomy, chemo, etc. 2 years later it came back, in her spine. They tried to do the chemo etc again for 2 more years, but it just didn't work. She passed away leaving a 12 year old son and a husband, her parents and 3 brothers behind, along with a bazillion friends who loved her.
If you've got something that you can feel, like the lump my friend had and this lady did, don't let the doctors blow you off! Male doctors are particularly bad about doing this. Keep going until you find someone who will listen to you!
My male OBGYN told me I was to young.....🤬

I was told my sister had thyroid cancer when I was 16. She is older and was 28 at the time. They caught it while she was pregnant and she refused to have an abortion to be treated because she had struggled to get pregnant.
The cancer spread to her lungs and after she had her son she had surgery to remove her thyroid but they could not get it all.
At one point they gave her 6 months to live.
Im 33 now.
She is still alive!
She still has cancer!

I understand your frustration with mis-diagnosing you because of your age. My son was finally diagnosed with Parkinson’s at a young age after several drs dismissed him as having a mental problem. They literally said it was all in his head and then one Dr said he had only a short time to live. We have to advocate for ourselves. I am saddened to see many younger aged women with breast cancer. I am in my 70’s with recent diagnosis of stage 4 MBC. I can only imagine what the future holds for me but I feel like I have had a good long life. ❤
Wow. I hope you have quite a while longer here to go still! You are at your prime. 70?!?! You are still very young. I hope then most high sees You through!
Whoever is saying it’s selfish and wrong to choose to have a baby is enraging, anyone can die anytime, tomorrow isn’t promised, if she is was to succumb to this awful disease she gave her husband the most beautiful gift and he will always have a piece of her that lives on through their child. I’m glad she got to experience motherhood it’s a beautiful thing and I pray she can live a long time to see her baby grow.
except that her tumor was hormone positive.
Thank you for this. That is how we look at it too 💕
@@aliceschmid9697yep, and the study we were looking at was for hormone positive breast cancer patients :)
@92 Tampachick perfectly said! 🎯 and not just her husband but her siblings and parents also. It is not selfish. I’m so glad she is experiencing the joy of motherhood! My SIL and brother were so happy they had their daughters when she was diagnosed and eventually died of stomach cancer. She lived a full life! The girls were still at home and that was sad, but all four of them have no regrets except that she got sick and died. But her bravery and faith inspired us all.
It is selfish if you purposely have a child knowing that your life might be short. Notice that in your comment you wrote "gave *her husband* a beautiful gift" and "I'm glad *she* got to experience motherhood," with no thought of the lifetime of pain the child would go through not having a mother.
I am so proud of you that you are sharing your story .. I have breast cancer , and am a nurse .. Stage 1 , BRACA 2 +, ER and Prog+..had double mastectomy , started on tamoxifen .. My wish and prayer for you is that you will be able to have years with your husband and daughter .. Keep up the faith ..
Wow-she has done a lot in her life which you can tell from all the pictures in different places-that’s so good-also GREAT DECISION TO HAVE A BABY!! Makes life do much sweeter and there is just no comparison to life with your precious child and a life without that person, or 2 or however many you have. Wishing this patient nice healthful life with her husband and daughter🌺☘️
Doctors ignoring symptoms just because it is ‚unlikely due to young age‘ makes me furious.
that is pure incompetence and ignorance on their part
@@annas7892has nothing to do with incompetence on their part. It has to do with insurance companies never approving these necessary testing after ACA became part of the healthcare in the USA. There’s not enough drs to fill all the medical fields as drs are making 1/5th of what a salary once was. Less graduates are going into the field now the govt has a hand in how they handle their patients & the multitude of additional paperwork & politics that is now part of the healthcare system. If the ACA was suspended or done reconfigured it would go a long way in drs being able to provide the best care to their patients & allow them to not have to jump through the red tape to get a simple MRI for at risk patients.
Story of my life!
I am watching Samantha for several years. She is amazing! Wish her a lot of health!
Hello samantha, l've been following you since you had the diagnosis 5 yrs ago. I'm happy that you are still around. There is a lot of hope nowadays that you can live for years. It seems cancer that hormone breast cancer is becoming chronic. All the best and l wish you many years of good quality of life. 🌻
Hormone breast cancer??!! Could it be due to what we eat? There’s more food genetically modified and with hormones in them?? What do you think? 😮
I was told my sister had thyroid cancer when I was 16. She is older and was 28 at the time. They caught it while she was pregnant and she refused to have an abortion to be treated because she had struggled to get pregnant.
The cancer spread to her lungs and after she had her son she had surgery to remove her thyroid but they could not get it all.
At one point they gave her 6 months to live.
Im 33 now.
She is still alive!
She still has cancer!
No one knows when you are gonna leave this world except God!
I know a lot of people say random shit online but this is 1000% the truth!
I really hope someone reads this so they know to always have hope!!!
God is good 🙌🏼
Amen!! Thank you for that! I’m in my second year post breast cancer and I have a scan coming up…so thank you and yes, God is our ONLY hope for all of our life! And He has the final word!
God bless you and your family!
Thank you for that. I have breast cancer withymph node involvement and grade 3. Stats say poor prognosis, but a year later and after treatment (continuing with targeted and hormone therapy) I feel fine. Just taking each day as it comes.
❤️
Praying for her complete healing in the name of Jesus. May he perform a supernatural surgery on her body and remove all traces of cancer from it! In the name of Jesus, Amen!
Many women are getting breast cancer in there twenties ! The doctors do know this it’s so annoying I was diagnosed at 29 get rid of it and it’s back 😢love to you Sam ❤
How long was it gonw for? What are your symptoms? Thanks for sharing
Cancer has no barriers when it comes to age. I live in the UK and I had menopause at 40, I'm now 56 with fibromyalgia, my lower 4 discs in my spine are prolapsed and I have osteoarthritis and osteopinia along with spondylosis and ME/CFS. The pain in my body has been a little different for quite a few months and although I have ME/CFS I've been extremely exhausted and this isn't the normal effects I experience with my health issues. Due to brain fog and depression I forgot to go for my routine mammogram. I mentioned this to my eldest son but prior to this a few weeks before I noticed a bump between my clavicle and sternum and it's a little tender and looks like a bruise/red inflamed mark. Everyone kept saying I'd probably knocked it or was my osteoarthritis. On the 10th of this month I was laying in bed watching the TV and decided to do a self breast check and I found a largish lump in my right breast and on checking it it has the same markings as the bump I have. To be honest I panicked and spoke to my sons and they said I had to go to my GP the next day. My eldest son went with me and I've been referred to the breast clinic for a mammogram, ultrasound and a biopsy on Thursday morning of the 25th of July.
My elder sister had breast cancer at 51 and luckily she's survived and is now 65. I didn't mention to my GP about the different pain I've been having in my lower back and body but after listening to you I will definitely mention it on Thursday. My eldest son is going with me and he will keep me calm and ask questions and retain the information given. I can't say I'm not petrified because I am, even at my age. My sons only have me and they are my world. I pray you make a full recovery and live a long and happy life with your darling daughter and husband along with your family. I found this video very helpful and very informative. God bless you ❤xxx
I'm praying for you.. I was also diagnosed 5/6/23, with stage IIIA Adenocarcinoma small cell lung cancer in my left lung, I had a lobectomy and started chemo.. Then on January 3,2024, I was again diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma in my right lung, and I should be having my last immunotherapy treatment in September of 2024💪🏾😊
Praying for you 🙏❤️🙏❤️
🙏
I pray for you
God father almighty please allow this woman to live and keep this family in your heart Amen
I follow Samantha’s RUclips Channel. It is a wealth of information. Incredible journey.
❤
She is literally the cutest person
I am 29 now, but i got a kidney transplant at 25,i was warned that the donor had mono ( kissing disease 🤣 ) and i had not had it yet. There was a 25% chance i would get mono, and of that 25% there was a 1% chance it would mutate to lymphoma. Sure enough, about a month later i had SEVERE abdominal pain and went to emerge. After blood tests and an MRI i was told i had lymphoma. It didn't even phase me tbh, i took a few seconds before looking at the doctor calmly and saying " ok, so how do we make it gone? " was nearly admitted to the psych ward 🤣. 6 months later after chemo every other week, cancer free. Almost at the 5 year mark now, and doing just fine. Cancer never HAS to be the end, so long as you don't lose hope and listen to what your body tells you, nothing is impossible. ❤
Sending prayers to Samantha ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love you Samantha, praying you have a very long and happy life with your family. If anyone can figure it out, it's you. You're so smart and so determined
🥰💕
God bless and keep you and your family.
I’m so tired of hearing about people getting cancer, especially in later stages. These medical professionals know how to manage this stuff but it’s all about money and greed. This hit home with me when my wife was recently diagnosed with metastatic TNBC after her doctor told her it was just a cyst and not to worry because she was premenopausal. 3 months later… she has the most aggressive breast cancer with the fewest treatment options.
That's sad.
I'm sorry to hear that.
How is your wife handling this?
Aside from standard treatment, has she considered participating in a clinical trial?
They are plenty of clinical trials for triple negative breast cancer.
I wish your wife all the best, even though I must recognize that in later stages things become much more complicated.
By the way, how old is your wife?
@@CarlaCaires-xc6zoThank you for the reply. My wife is handling it very well. She’s a fighter through and through and she stays really upbeat. She is currently in a trial with trodelvy and keytruda. After her first cycle they scaled her treatment back to 75% and that has been a godsend for her. No vomiting or nausea in the past 5 cycles.
My wife was diagnosed at 48 years old. We’ve done a couple genetics testing and all of her genes have come back with zero mutations, so we’re wondering how/why this has happened, as she has no family history of any type of cancer.
I’m a Stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma patient - still marching on five years from diagnosis - sending you strength and admiration from Canada. Doctors alone can’t care for us - my GP initially waved off my belief I had any type of lymphoma despite symptoms and a bloodwork history I’d saved - and can’t decide for us what’s best. You’ve given careful thought to your treatments and what matters most in life, then made choices that were right for you.
Sounds like you have a fabulous oncology team and a supportive, loving husband and family. Keep enjoying life as you continue telling The Big C to take a major hike! ❤️🇨🇦❤️
Thank goodness for darling Gray giving you that loving hug. Even though I know you are still fighting, you found it because of Gray loving you so much.
You have come such a long way and I hope you know we have been with you all the way and will continue to be so .
Love to you all
Our Samantha, Gray and lovely little baby girl 👶 xxxx
Wonderful you gave birth. Your child is your great blessing. Ignore all negative comments. Your body. Your life. Your decisions. Be blessed.
You are right about it being her decision, but not about it being her body. A baby is not a mother's body, it's the child's body. The same goes for women who choose to abort, they say it's their body, but it's not, it's the child's body.
Your, your, your.....no thought of the child.
Thanks for showing us the interview! I think it can be so helpful to others! I had cancer ten years ago so I've been interested in your case. So happy to see the good things in your life. You are a fighter!!! Am praying for you!!💕💕
Hi Samantha. I’ve been watching you for years on your channel. What a great presentation to bring awareness you are one of the strongest women. I know God bless you and your family.🙏🏻
What an amazingly strong woman. Hearing everything she has gone through is eye opening. I can understand how much having a child has helped her. They really do give you a purpose.
I was diagnosed with stomach cancer when my son was 5 and I have gone through 6 years of hell. I refuse to have him grow up without his Mum. Though some days, I know that if I didn’t have him, I would have given up. It’s hard and the bad days make you just want it all to be over. The pain gone. Knowing he needs me is what gets me through the weak moments. Such up the pain and just push through.
I first followed Samantha just after her diagnosis it’s been an up and down ride for her she’s amazingly resilient
That’s motherhood for you, the biggest blessing in every way. I’m so happy for you beautiful, you are strong and courageous and your baby girl knows it! ❤❤
I was also told i was “to young” to have ovarian cancer but i was stage 2 ovarian & endometrial cancer!
Advocate for yourself these drs today go by the book & instead of facing reality.
I found out that the doctors actually go by the insurance companies... and it could easily have cost me my life.
Hope you are doing well. I'm an 11 year endometrial cancer survivor. Unfortunately, it looks like I'll be in pain for the rest of my life from the side effects of the treatments, though.
A timely hysterectomy after the birth of our 3rd and final child would have spared me from having cancer and being in pain for the rest of my life.
Our friend too, stage 4 just like you 😢❤ All the healing ❤️🩹 prayers your way.
Had bladder cancer. It along with my prostate. After chemo I’m clear. Wishing and praying for you. You have a lot of living to do.
Great interview Samantha, I have watching you from when you got your diagnosis. Praying that you will many years to see your daughter become a beautiful young woman like you ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your story in such an eloquent way. Really educational. Wishing you a very, very long and happy life.❤
heart breaking to see so many young people with cancer, why? what's going on? Is it the food? water? Figuring this out needs to be a top priority!
Pollution, food, stress, EMF and most of all from 2021 on the jabs....and doctors know it...
While there has been an increase in cancer diagnoses among younger people, it is still the case that the vast majority of cancer diagnoses are among older people. Nevertheless researchers are working to understand the increases that have been observed. They can't just magically produce an answer out of nowhere. However the likely causes are related to diet, obesity and sedentary lifestyles, which are factors we can do something about without having to wait for clinical explanations.
@@arielmatinez ask doctors what caused increased cases from 2021 on... Try to guess...
@@Ozymandi_as lol
@@ciuffoarancione8929 cancer in younger people has been increasing since the 90's. Not since just 3 years ago. There has been no significant increase since 2021.
Thank you so much for sharing your story and sending you so much love and well wishes. What a messy experience you had before diagnosis. I hear so many similarities to my journey. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 36 and told this was too young. I was told 3 times there was nothing wrong before a biopsy.
Even though it is less common breast cancer does occur in younger women. I wish there was more awareness around this. X
Very brave. Wishing you the best.
You are truly an inspiration. God bless you and your beautiful family.
Oh it makes me so mad, I have been working in the health field for my entire working career and saying "you are too young for cancer" is unacceotable!! Even if you were the only person under 25 to be diagnosed with cancer ever, you have cancer and the doctors ignored to possibility. To me it is misdiagnosis and you should sue the pants off the doctor or doctors that ignored the possiblity. There is a youtube chanel about a beautiful young lady who passed away way to young because she was ignored for the same darn reason and like you spent the remainder of her life educating people on avocating for yhourself. Thankyou for unselfishly doing the same. The beautiful soul I am talking about is Jenny Apple @The Apples
I LOVE @TheApples channel!! ❤ I followed along Jenny’s journey and it broke my heart when she passed. Their kids are so precious! And her husband Kyle is a saint of a man ❤
It makes me mad too! I mean, for heaven's sake even BABIES get cancer! It's not like it's completely unheard of.
😢😢pretužno i svima vama svaka čast na priči i smirenosti ja bih poludila od straha...same smrti.😢😢😢❤ Dao vam Bog dragi zdravlja i da poživite bez te strašne pošasti.😢
I have followed your channel. It was great to hear again. You are strong and so positive.
Keeping you in my prayers🙏❤️🙏
I’m so proud of you for being so open and sharing your story, Samantha. I’ve followed you since the beginning and even though I am nearly twice your age, I’m so inspired by your strength and wisdom.💕💕💕
I hope Samantha is doing alright!!
She has her own channel
I have been following your channel for a few months now. It's great that you are sharing your experience on The Patient Story, where many will benefit from hearing about your experience.
Would love to follow her channel and join in prayer. How can I find her channel?
@@tracyh.8795this is my channel 😊
@@tracyh.8795it is @SamanthaL
I totally agree one person is enough to say that it can happen. Growing up we never worried about cancer stats show it has doubled and patients are getting younger it’s scary
I have followed sam video for a long time , such a beautiful caring wife ( mum , and trying to spread awareness and help others , sam because i had a lot of family pass with cancer , people told me oh have hysterectomy , safer , i wanted ti be a mum , well i have my two girls , i have my grandson , i was diagnosed December with a blood cancer , if i had listened ( the joy of my daughters i would have never known ❤️❤️❤️
What’s the name of her channel?
We constantly here the message early detection saves lives, however getting your GP (uk) to listen is a real problem, my daughter who was a similar age found a lump in her breast and her GP who had a trainee with him the day of my daughters appointment, asked if it was okay for her to do examinations, apparently she was brilliant and thorough and wanted to refer for further investigation, the GP said “why it’s hardly likely to be cancer at her age” my daughter was referred and fortunately it wasn’t cancer, we both hope that young trainee went on to be a great doctor and doesn’t get the apathetic attitude of so many
So who did the referral?
I'm 38 (before suggested screening commences for breast cancer in Ontario, Canada at 40).
It happens to young women all the time but thankfully my doctor took my concerns seriously and referred me immediately for specialist diagnostic scans and biopsies.
Turns out it was cancer and I am now cancer free after undergoing a lumpectomy and radiation.
Her story is heartbreaking. I am blessed I had those extra years of being relatively healthy that she didn't .....
I am so very sorry for the loss of your breast. Yet, I am so thankful you did follow up quickly. And have been able to have a family ❤
I lost a niece to breast cancer when she was 21 - she 'wasn t Old Enough either'!!! It devastated our family. It's a horrible evil disease.
I lost my left breast 4 years ago and it never gets easier.
I had ovarian cancer at 23. If I had not gotten pregnant, I would have died. It is as bad as stage 4 breast cancer it's 80% terminal with ovarian, but since I found it almost within 2 months after finding out I was pregnant, they removed that overie then after baby was born at 31 weeks we did a full hysterectomy because I had spots on my other overie they did a full hysterectomy at 26 after 2 years of treatment. I've been in remission since 2006.
Said my 4 mth old grand daughter who had cancer that was never seen in children only adults! She’s 15 yrs now and cancer free❤ had 150 chemo treatments at children’s Seattle along with other poisons to kill this horrible cancer! She was given 12 hrs to live at one time, God is absolutely good😇 bless all those who fight this disgusting disease
Glad you did this to make people aware! I have followed you from the beginning and have the utmost respect for you and your family. You are so brave and an inspiration for other cancer patients. You look great.🥰🇨🇦
YOU are remarkable and brave. YOU do what YOU have to do. I will continue to pray that GOD will continue to hoover over you and your family. 🙏
Yay Samantha! Great summary of all the stuff you’ve been through… You could save lives by spreading awareness. Holding off on plans because you’re afraid of cancer coming back is something I know very well and even though I’m older than you, I’ve had to push fear aside and take risks and follow my heart. It’s hard to explain the bravery it takes to continue seizing opportunities when you know all too well how things can turn quickly. You inspire me… as usual! I made a decision to change jobs in my 50s and you along with some other young RUclipsrs, who are living life to the fullest, were often on my mind when I was making that tough but ultimately rewarding decision. Sending good vibes your way ❤️
If doctors could be sued for negligence every single time someone is misdiagnosed everything would change. How many times doctors dismiss your symptoms just because you don’t fit the criteria either because of your age or because you don’t have “enough “ symptoms all together to meet their standards to order more tests.
I will never understand why they don't look for cancer first instead of trying to rule it out first
Especially being that cancer is time sensitive the quicker you find it the better.
Too expensive. Its all about the bottom line with insurance companies.
Your story is incredible-thanks for calmly sharing. Best wishes to you and your family as you continue your fight.
Prayers said for you sweet girl.
Brave and lovely person you are
The fact that there was an opening for a biopsy, right at that moment, is so rare. Devine intervention. Make a low carb, low sugar diet part of your lifestyle. Cancer needs sugar to survive and grow. That is part of how cancer is found on a PET scan.
Gid bless u dear. Am so happy for u that u have your bundle of joy. Praying for your continued healinhg.
She is the bravest of the brave.🙏
Thank you for sharing your story. ❤ Wishing you much good health! My friend last year had stage 4 breast cancer and the doctors didn’t recommend mastectomy for her either because the cancer had spread to her brain. This was last year and she’s doing well today. I’m a stage 2 hormone receptor positive breast cancer survivor. I was age 42 and this was in 2008. They recommended mastectomy in one breast but I opted for both breasts in case it showed up in the second breast down the road and for symmetry. I also had chemo - adriamiacin and cytoxin.
Praying for you and your precious family to grow stronger everyday ❤
Always!Always! Get second opinions from different doctors away from each other!! It’s vital for your decisions! On any surgery or procedure, I didn’t have cancer but due to DV, have multiple spine issues with nerve involvement, that decision saved countless surgeries! ❤
Thank you for sharing your story. And wishing you health and happiness ❤
This young woman is amazingly courageous and impressive. She was also incredibly unfortunate to have Stage IV breast cancer by the age of 22. It's not clear to me that there was some diagnostic failure simply because she wasn't immediately referred for testing. She was nevertheless referred quite quickly, from what I can gather, and since her diagnosis seems to have has excellent care. There is such a thing is over-testing which has been shown to harm patients and healthcare systems. I don't think it's for people in the comments to assme that her GP was negligent in some way, or that this is indivative of wider failings in healthcare, and that doesn't seem to be an axe that she is grinding. Of course diagnostic pathways can always be improved, and I'm sure that work is ongoing. We live at a time when the ability to diagnose, treat and cure all sorts of cancers is greater than it has ever been, and brlieve this young woman is testament to those successes more than any supposed failures.
We love Samantha :)
Powerful story
Thanks so much for sharing your story. It really helps me 😊
🙏 ❤️ 🙏
For You
Always & Forever
Exactly this is your life and journey
Thank you so much for sharing your story and creating awareness . But I am so damn tired of doctors dismissing something just because a patient presents as atypical or they’re are “ too young” to have a medical condition. Doctors can be so dismissive of symptoms or disregard and reduce our anxiety down to “worrying about nothing” or being a hypochondriac. I’ve been waiting 9 months for a 4 month follow up . Again, thank you so much for sharing and you and your family will be in my prayers and I’m sure anyone else who watches this❤
I’m so tired of this same situation reoccurring it’s not taboo for young people to get cancer anymore medical professionals need to listen to their patients they know their body more than anybody else!
Also having had BC I applaud you for having a baby! Only good can come of it. Amazing gift to everyone.
It’s sad how prominent cancer is now days. my family including myself have been tested for the BRCA gene mutation and we all have the gene my mom had breast cancer at 41 my sister had it at 30 and im in my early 20’s and I’ve already scheduled my surgery because I’d really rather not wait till I have cancer. Cancer doesn’t discriminate and I hope everyone who has it has an easy recovery 💖
Im so fond of Samantha
Thank you for sharing your story💖
For a doctor to say that a young patient is too young to get cancer is disgraceful and complete negligence and it can be a great danger to patients. People of all ages get cancer just not elderly people. Sorry!
Thank you for sharing your journey❤ Good morning, my daughter was recently diagnosed with stage two breast cancer. She’s 25 and begin her treatment this week. Click to follow her story.
Praying you get great news and Cancer gone❤🙏🙏🙏
You’re such a strong 💪 powerful young woman. Your story will change and save lives.
I don’t know you, but I LOVE YOU from Coastal Georgia.
You are in my prayers for you to be healed and that you will enjoy many, MANY YEARS of happiness with your husband and family.
Mammogram technicians should only allow the doctors to tell you what is going on with your health.
My mammogram technician had to call me and apologize for telling me the wrong thing. She may have been afraid that she was going to lose her job, but I didn’t tell the doctor what she had told me.
I’m a 16 year breast cancer survivor, and STILL COUNTING. To God be the Glory.
It sounds like you have some great doctors.
You’re in my prayers for your complete recovery in the name of Jesus! Amen. 🙏🏽
God bless you and your family, Samantha 🙏🏻🕊xx
Yeah, I had a doctor tell me my herniated cerebellum was benign. Yes, as in not cancer. No, it was not "benign" entirely, it almost killed me by partially crushing my brainstem. Her advice led to unnecessary pain and nerve damage.
Despite a lump in my breast the doctor denied me more tests stating cancer does not hurt and that lump hurt a lot. Two days ago and over a year after the doctor visit i had a double, radical mastectomy and ovoectomy due to squamous breast carcinoma !!
Samantha my Grandaughter has teeth issues and cold and heat issues as well due to chemo and radiation from four months to 15 months when her battle began and ended you are an inspiration and I love this that you are sharing your story❤ amazing you give life while others poo poo that beautiful experience😂 good for you! Look how you are thriving you beautiful strong lady warrior!! Rocking your life!! 💞😎 we are with you girl!! 😊
You’re in my prayers I hope you get to live a long full life
All the women out there, if breast cancer is in your family have your dr. Check for the HE. 2 gene.!! My cousin is still fight the cancer,she carries the gene. I asked my doc if she was aware of that gene and how it causes breast cancer, HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT!! I SUGGESTED SHE DO SOME RESEARCH. NO IDEA if she did any. I pass it on to anyone. I love my cousin HATE what she continues to sufer. Remember its called HER2 gene.
Thank you for this video. Congratulations on your baby! I hope you have many, many years with her and your husband and family.
Young women should always have breast ultrasound in addition to a mammogram if there’s any symptom of a breast cancer. I’m old and still have dense breasts and have to have an annual ultrasound and mammogram. I had stage I breast cancer 25 years ago.
Thank you ❤
