I was 25 when diagnosed with stage 3c ovarian cancer. I underwent major abdominal surgery to remove the mass, followed by six months of chemotherapy and 90 weeks of a clinical trial infusion. I had a recurrence two years later, surgery and six more months of chemotherapy. Since then, I have been in and out of different treatments. This past year has been tough with six bowel obstructions, new chemotherapy, and gastric tube placement. It has taken a large toll on my overall self-esteem and my family life.
