Описание: Amber was just 32 years old when she noticed strange changes in her body, from bowel issues to night sweats and unintended weight loss. Initially, she brushed them off, but the symptoms persisted and worsened. Despite her fears, Amber delayed seeking help, rationalizing her symptoms until her husband urged her to see a doctor.

In this cancer vlog, Amber shares the shocking moment she was diagnosed with Stage 4 ovarian cancer, her intense treatment journey, and how she found hope.

Thank you, Amber, for sharing your story to help others.
