- Did my best to tell my cancer story. Recently found out my cancer is back after being diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer 5 years ago. Never thought I would get it back and especially this soon. I never do talking videos and I’m certainly not a doctor. I hope this helps someone and let me know if your have any questions. Also, let me know if you would like me to continue these updates.
PS if you listen at 1.5 speed, you get through it much faster 😂😂😅 I do this with all talking videos 🫶

Natasha, stage 4 is definitely not a death sentence anymore. I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer in the right breast, right lymph nodes, bones and liver in October 2022. I have never had chemo, radiation, or surgery. So far, I have been on targeted therapy and hormone therapy like yourself. I have had great results and constant shrinkage. It’s no longer in my liver, bones, or lymph nodes anymore. In addition, although tired, I have been able to keep my teaching job the entire time. You got this!!!
Thanks for much! Love to hear it!! 🫶🫶🫶
So glad to read your post. I've recently been diagnosed the same. Tumours are shrinking and the targeted medication and hormone tablets are doing their job amazingly well. I do get very tired, nauseous and I still have pain. Would love to share our journey if you would like to?
Wow. You’re a real survivor and kudos for you for keeping working. I’ll pray for complete recovery for you dear one. ❤
Hi my dear. So happy to hear about your progress... it's so hopeful. I was diagnosed with stage 3. Find myself with a cough recently and am losing weight. Don't know if it's gone to stg.4 going to make an appt to see my doc so he can run some tests. Tell me please what diet are you on? I am struggling with what to eat.
Thank you for sharing this testimony! It uplifts my spirit! Recently diagnosed with stage 2, had double mastectomy, second round of chemo, but I feel the lump forming again in the same area, right under a mole on my breast where cancer was diagnosed. Can’t wait to see my oncologist to mention my concern. I pray it’s just scarring, but it is scary! I just tell myself God has a plan for me, so I will never ask why me, I will just ask him to guide me through his purpose! Blessing to everyone!
Thank you, Natasha, for sharing your story to help others. As a 10 year survivor of pancreatic cancer just know that there is always hope with a positive attitude like yours! Wishing you the best!

🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️
You’re one of the lucky ones💜💜
Amazing! 💪💪
What was your cancer stage if you don't mind?? 😍
I just discovered your channel, and I just wanted to say I love you girlie! My friends sister has had stage 4 cancer for 15+ years now and she is doing great! I would suggest staying away from internet wannabe doctor's though. Trust your team. You got this! ❤❤❤
Truly appreciate this! Thank you!
Natasha ..I’ve had the same type cancer as you. Cancer is cancer and can come back at anytime. Mine came back 13 years later. So in short do the best you can. My prayers are with you. Do one thing live one day at a time. Enjoy your life and have Faith!!
I truly appreciate your honesty about not faithfully taking your tamoxifen... being a stage 4 metastatic breast cancer to the bones fighter for the past 10 years... PLEASE do not ever blame yourself - you have enough weight on your shoulders. You'll be in my prayers. People ask me how I can keep fighting - it's my daughter she makes this fight worth it every second I have with her is a blessing. Find your reason to FIGHT & LIVE every second of everyday. ♡
Thank you so much. Best wishes to you! 🫶
Chris Beat Cancer program…. Knock out your cancer.
I really need to read your comment I am I. Tears right now , I am currently waiting for my surgery. I wanted to fight for my 2 daughters too n my husband .. God bless always ❤
@@michelleguevarra7914May Allah give you a long and healthy life ,May you see your children's children I had cancer in 2005 its been a long rd I had mastectomy, Took tamoxifen for 6 years do have side effects. Just take each day as it comes you will be fine.
Doesn’t anyone believe in Jesus Christ??? I cannot wait for Him to take me home! I am older and have had a wonderful life! Tons of kids! Traveled. Was a Hospice RN for 17 years!!
I am stage lll and had double mastectomies with 19 bad lymph nodes removed! Took anastrozole 4.5 years and stopped 6 days ago! I cannot endure side affects anymore.
I also didn't take Tamoxifen because I thought it stopped by estrogen and I was so young when found to have Atypical breast cells on biopsy. Years later I now have full blown breast cancer recovering from bilateral mastectomies with axillary dissection. I wish there had been more education about Tamoxifen at the time. Thank you for sharing your story. You are strong and you're battling!
I’m so sorry. I agree. They should have us watch a video or something 😂😅 I did not understand and just didn’t want to age myself and have all those side effects. Now I’m in a worse situation. Could have happened anyway so we just need to accept and look forward. Good luck to you! ❤️
Please don’t blame yourself for having stopped tamoxifen. There are many women who have taken tamoxifen for the entirety of recommended treatment only to get a reoccurrence of cancer anyway. Most importantly don’t blame yourself. Thousands of women suffer horrible side effects from tamoxifen and stop taking it or don’t start at all and do just fine many years later. Everybody responds to treatment differently, and everybody’s cancer is different from the other person regardless of the cell type.
Natasha, keep the faith! I was diagnosed 6 years ago in January. I started my second line of therapy this year in March. And it is Kisqali along with Fulvestrant. Kisqali is way less side effects for me than my first line which was Ibrance. And you are right, the exercise and stretching you do will make that joint and muscle pain much easier. I do have nausea a couple hours after I take Kisqali, but Zofran helps a lot. When I was first diagnosed I was certain I would be gone in a year. It took me a long to get past those feelings. But now I know, there are a lot of new drugs that have came out and many more coming down the road! I am older than you, (63) but feel certain now that I will live a long life!
Thank you for this! Happy to hear Kisqali isn’t so bad for you! 🫶
God bless you both ladies many many healthy years to come x
God bless you
❤❤❤
Hi Natasia. I am on anastrozole for my cancer. Like you, I DID NOT want to take this drug (or any drug) for 5 years. But I agreed to try to stick it out for a couple of years. After watching your testimony on your cancer journey, I will stay on it for however long my oncologist tells me to! Thank you for sharing your story. I pray that you recover completely! ❤️
Aw thank you! I hope you have minimal side effects and it helps you and you never see cancer again! ❤️
I was told that aromatase inhibitors should now be taken for 10 years not 5. Check with your doctor.
@@def3797 there’s a test they can do now to see if 5 years or 10 years is more beneficial for your particular type of cancer.
Hey Natasha, I really wish that doctors relayed sensitive information in a more empathetic way. Maybe they could have a medical social worker talk to you as well to deal with the emotional and mental ramifications of being diagnosed with cancer. First, I think you are very beautiful. I’m sorry for all that you’re going through. I think your honesty is courageous and I appreciate you sharing. Sounds like a lot of uncertainty and life changes. Please keep us updated.
Right? Especially that first doctor. Just left me hanging on a Friday with like a 20 second phone call 😩 they really need to have more info with that kind of news!
I have brain tumors and mum has parkinsons so we get exposed to lotsa nurses, docs etc.
Let me guess, no offence, you took the vaxxxxxx?? Although its not being reported too much in the academic literature, nurses ae reporting an explosion in young people with aggressive cancers in those who have been injected with the experimental mRNA mixture.
My brain tumors are Neurofibromatosis related...mine are not due to experimental injections. With NF, we are especially radio-sensitive so the chemo and radiation are ESPECIALLY cancer-causing in my case.
Why are they treating cancer with cancer-causing agents? Im not going to sacrifice myself to make oncologists and cancer centres more money. Its all so crooked.
Do your own research!
@@Itsabigmysterybecause that’s the best form of treatment that exists. Cancer either takes your livelihood, or it takes your life. You only get to pick one. Pediatric cancer is only researched with a budget 4% that of other forms of cancer. Due to this lack of research (funding) into more cancer research, as well as profits of corporations and political lobbyists, and the federal government being in-cahoots with pharmaceutical research, it won’t get funded in my lifetime. There’s so many reasons.
So the only option left, is deal with these hideous treatments that steal the livelihoods of these poor humans, or it steals the life altogether. And those children? Get treated with ADULT DOSES on their tiny bodies, because why? Because there is so little funding to research and discover proper age-appropriate treatment, as well as non-toxic to the body after treatment.
Your antivaxx comment is based on which studies? Please link them with your comment, that’s called being a reliable source. If you don’t know for certain, you shouldn’t spread medical misinformation. Might be a bad look. I don’t take offense to your comment, it’s simply unfounded. Saying “nurses reporting an explosion” of cases that conveniently aren’t reported officially, is hardly an argument.
@@Itsabigmysteryyou have the metabolic treatment of Professor Thomas Seyfried.Pablo Kelly is cancer free of his glioblastome since 10 years.Guy Tenembaum(cancer therapy on YT) stage 4,free of cancer today.
I am very sorry that 5 yrs ago the 1st gp was unsympathetic. If you was diagnosed 5 yrs ago HER negative then it is recognized now as fast growing and largely untreatable. My daughter-in-law 39 has HER 2 Positive also a rapid growing breast but this year 2023 thet can treat HER 2 Positive with targets for her rare cancer. 5 years ago no good specific treatment. She wasn't Estrogen or progesterone positive.
I believe the hormone treatment is hell. I can understand why you didn't take it because and it's a shame that you go in menopause. Not a good quality of life and some women give up on it.
What l am concerned is the HER NEGATIVE. Lindsay is still on treatment end of December 2023 until July 2024. All being well treatment stops after July, 2024.
I found out in October that I’m stage 3 breast cancer estrogen positive, progesterone positive, HER2 negative. I’m 42 yo. I’m 2 months into chemotherapy. I always hate taking meds ever since I was a kid. In fact I “forgot” to take my morning and night time pills yesterday. Your story is such a wake up call for me that I need to take all my pills very very seriously and do not “forget” just bcoz I don’t feel like taking those pills. Thank you for being honest and sharing your story!!
Thank you for sharing! I feel seen 😂 and I’m glad it’s helpful. If you don’t have side effects or they are manageable, def just do it. They prescribe them for a reason and it’s worth it to do it right and give ourselves the best chance at life 🫶
Nettie, l can see that your treatment 2023 includes chemo for your combination estrogen positive, progesterone positive and your HER Negative which is the reason they put you on chemo with the HER negative, plus blockers for the hormone positive. I think your treatment is more advanced in 2023 than was Natasha's treatment. There are many more targets nowadays so it's hopeful for you.
Chemotherapy DOES NOT WORK❗
Dr. Peter Glidden. The relationship between PROFITS 💰💰 and Cancer. TWELVE YEAR META-ANALYSIS STUDY OF CANCER PATIENTS was done❗❗😮 They published the results in The Journal of Clinical Oncology.
Chemotherapy has a FAILURE rate of 97% , NINETY SEVEN PERCENT❗ (MEANING 97% of chemo patients DIE 💀) Why is it still allowed? ONE REASON AND ONE REASON ONLY, MONEY 💰💰💰💰💰
Oncologists make $11,000 per patient; $4000 from health insurance and $7000 by buying and reselling the chemotherapy 💉💉to the patient.. They buy it for $5000 and sell it for $12,000 .
If Ford Automobile made a vehicle that EXPLODES 💥 97% of the time, they would NOT BE IN BUSINESS. This is the tip of the iceberg of the control that the Pharmaceutical Industry has on us and most people have no idea of this at all.
I have a list of 10 questions that every cancer patient should ask their doctor. IVE HAD PATIENTS LITERALLY KICKED 🦶 OUT OF THE ONCOLOGIST OFFICE because the doctor was angry that the patient was asking him these questions❗ These are just common sense questions
Medical ⚕️Doctors are like COLOR BLIND art critics. They can see that that's a boat, they can see the black and white outline, but they're COMPLETELY BLIND to all of the colours and textures that make up the substance of the thing. There's no difference with cancer.
Medicine in the United States is a FOR PROFIT INDUSTRY and most people are completely unaware of this and BOW DOWN 🛐 to the ALTAR of MD directed high tech medicine.
(...... I think this money he mentions is for just one round of chemos.. ? Because I've read that in total Big Pharma and the 🥼doctors make about $80USD per cancer patient.. )
..... I know a bunch of people who got chemotherapy and sadly 😓 they ALL DIED.. 💀💀💀.. Some of them LITTLE children 👶👶..😥

Soo incredibly sad 😢... Loads of ppl getting turbo cancers.. So many youtubers, so many on ticktock., it's an explosion of cancers, heart disease, blood clots, strokes, heart attacks and many other diseases starting in beginning of 2021, right after the "SAFE&EFFECTIVE" "medicine" rolled out in the end of 2020.. Keep taking "medicine" from the philanthropist blue blood elites obsessed with population reduction of the dumb useless peasants.. They LOVE YOU YOU KNOW... All the SAFE&EFFECTIVES they give to ppl are similar in "health benefits", not just the 2020 safe and effective; the ones for kids, the ones they give to pregnant moms, the flu one, the HPV they give to teen-agers etc etc.
It also exacerbates A LOT any small issue you might have, that maybe u could have lived just fine with, all your life, (and you've probably had that one issue, also from a childhood safe&effective .. )
I got a good nurse friend working in the ER in California. She says in her 20 year career, they used to get one stroke every two weeks and it was an old person.. Now since the rollout of the extra potent ☠️poisonous "safe&effective" in 2020, there's days they get 5-8 strokes PER DAY in VERY YOUNG people, people in their early 20's and even teen-agers.. most strokes are MASSIVE fatal 🧠brain blood bleeds that usually can't be saved or healed back to health.
About 50% of the batches were just saline. That's why a lot of people are just fine. About 40% produce disease and about 4% were deadly, as in immediate death as in same day or a few hours later death.

A book written in 1889 called 45 years of Registration Statistics, Proving Vaqqxination to be both useless and dangerous.
It covers 45 years (so starting in the year 1844) the statistics of vaqqcine FAILURES including an INCREASE in death from other diseases once the blood has been poisoned by vaqqcination. They cover the health of the vaqqcinated VERSES the UNvaqqcinated.....bad news for the vaqqcinated...they were dying more from other diseases such as measles, mumps, smallpox and diphtheria because of a weakened countenance from vaqqcine.

Hi Nettie, my sister just found out that she has same type of cancer ER PR+ve, stage 3. It has spread to her lymph nodes underarms. Im worried 😢. She has her chemo planned in May. Worried that she has 3 yr old kid, the question if she will be able to live for atleast next 20 years bothers me. Did doctors tell you anything like that?
My mom was diagnosed w mets to bones a few years ago (12 years after beating stage III breast cancer back in 2009) and is currently NED. Stage 4, while terrifying -is becoming more and more 'chronic' each passing decade and can truly be felt as such.
Glad to hear she’s doing well 🫶
You are an amazing woman. I'm 70 years old, and my mom died of breast cancer at 74, and my neice by marriage died at 37 from breast cancer, so I'm pretty familiar with it. What I don't have that you definitely do, is your positive outlook on life. I call myself a realist, but I can be pretty negative at times. I think your positivity will help you beat this thing! I'm going to keep watching to see what happens next. I am a Christian, and I will definitely be praying for you. Stay strong!
Aww thank you so much! I was literally just talking to my husband about this. Wondering if the fact that I don’t worry and think I can handle this will help me! ❤️❤️❤️
@@NatashaFitnessYogaPilates it does help a lot to think positively! It helps even more when your doctors are doing the same. There is a Teds talk on TH-cam about the placebo effect and how it's puzzled doctors that some people can be cured of diseases from treatments that later showed didn't actually work on the disease
@@NatashaFitnessYogaPilates th-cam.com/video/LWQfe__fNbs/w-d-xo.html
I have this disease now in my bones too All they can do is keep me stable.
Me to I’m a Christain also I m praying for u tonight and myself and everyone who has cancer and needs Prayers God Bless u 💯🙏🙏♥️
My aunt is 87 years old. Two years ago she was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer. When she told me she was going for chemo and radiation, I didn’t understand it. I thought the doctors wanted to make money off of her sickness. About six months ago, I called her, not knowing if she was still alive or not. She said that there was absolutely no more cancer left on her, and I have to believe that’s a miracle. With that in mind, please know that I will be praying for you. Your name is going in my Bible, so that I will pray for you every day.
I’m glad she was treated! The doctors want to help and we have a long way with treatment. Even the chemo is much better today. Thank you!
@@NatashaFitnessYogaPilates I really believe in the power of God. I’m going to pray that the doctors give you the best advice, the best treatment, and for you and your family. I can’t imagine what it’s like to even hear the diagnosis. ❤️
You never called her to encourage her thru treatment! And yet you claim you’re going to pray for this person?! Aren’t you the heartless person with no compassion!
I just came across your channel by accident and I am very sorry to hear that and I hope you will get a full recovery and cancer free in 2024. Prayers for you and Happy New Year’s.
Sending prayers and lots of positive thoughts to you! I’m hoping that you will keep us updated. 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️
I'm so sorry to hear this. I was also diagnosed with a Stage 1a breast cancer in Oct 2020 at the age of 37. I had a lumpectomy, radiation, my onco type was 17. I did my tamoxifen pretty religiously for 2.5 years. I had all reassurances that I'd be "fine". 2.5 years after diagnosis my cancer was back as a fully formed tumor in the tumor bed. Tamoxifen did nothing for me - I had to has a single mastectomy.
Thankfully it was a small tumor, but the point is you can do EVERYTHING they tell you and have it not work - so dont blame yourself for stopping the Tamoxifen. It literally doesnt work for some people, the doctors just want us to believe that a 97% chance of it never coming back is the same as a 100% chance... and it just isnt.
Now Im on Lupron and exemestane and we play the waiting game to see if the 3rd time is a charm.
Thank you so much for sharing. I think this would have happened when I stopped tamoxifen down the road anyway. I only had a little more time on it. I wish you all the best! These drugs are much stronger at blocking estrogen so you should be okay!
They just don’t tell you, which shocks me as a doctor, how microscopic tumors are and that the tiniest ones are always escaping the initial tumor. We all have tiny tumors forming every day but our immune system fights them off. Chemo is the only thing that can eradicate just about every cell.
I am thinking if it would have made a difference having a full double mastectomy with the early stage cancer you was diagnosed with at the beginning. I think l would have opted for double mastectomy. I wanted my daughter-in-law to have double mastectomy but as you you took the hormone blocker and it recurred it's not full proof. Neither is a mastectomy. Young women go through menopause which is awful.
@@IreneRattray a Double mastectomy would not have made a difference. The tumor formed where the old tumor was, which means the surgeon didnt get all of the inital cancer and radiation didnt kill what was left behind. Additionally, tamoxifen didnt stop it from growing. Cancer from one breast doesnt travel to the other breast, it travels to the bones or lungs or other organs. Cancer in the other breast is a new cancer.
Thank you for sharing. There are a lot of women who took Tamoxifen but the cancer came back anyway. Plz check out the calculator PREDICT.
Very sorry to hear.....strength and victory to you. Stay positive and take joy in distractions and fight like hell, we are with you!
Hi Natasha. Thanks for posting. I wish you well. I’ve been on Anastrozole for 6 years, after 5 years of Tamoxifen. I appreciate the reminder that these drugs do make a difference as I have been complacent at times. It is hard to know if the aches and pains are related or just part of the aging process at this point. I continue to be grateful that I can enjoy exercising everyday. Best to you.
I feel you on that! Hard to tell what’s natural aging and what is the medication. Glad you are doing well. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Sorry you are going through this. Thinking of you and sending lots of healing vibes. ❤
Just came across your channel. So sorry to hear of your diagnosis. Sounds like you are in good hands with your medical team. Praying for your good health and comfort for you and your loved ones.
Your story can help so many , and we want to keep prayers and positive thoughts coming your way!! Stay positive!
Your brave honesty about the "escaped cells" and tamoxifen (its function and your choices) will definitely inform others and perhaps save their lives! I wish you the best and will follow your journey. ❤
Thank you so much. That is exactly why I put my story out. I hope it helps someone! And that people in my position feel less alone and encouraged to stay active :)
Wishing you well please get a juicer and drink carrot juice and green juices stay off sugar as much as possible possible red clover and dandelion tea parsley juice .
Yes it’s mainly for veggies.
@NatashaFitnessYogaPilates there is a doctor on youtube named Dr Amy and she survived stage 3 ovarian cancer ( young like you) and she has a whole cancer recovery program and sometimes does consults for free. I know your uncle is a guru at Mayo Arizona but I just thought you might be curious. Happy New Year
@@DR3itmatters I’ve definitely watched some of her videos!
Thank you for sharing your story verbally and written down ❤
Thanks a lot for being so honest, I'm sure this will be helpful for many women.
God Bless you! You have a lot to live for! Glad you have good support and are otherwise healthy. Thank you for sharing your story.
I’m so glad you posted this. I’m so sorry you’re going through this. You have such a positive attitude which is gonna make a huge difference in your recovery.
praying for you. Stay STRONG and overCOME. We are all with you!
I’m so sorry that you are going through this🖤 I’m sorry “health care” has been so difficult to navigate…Prayers up for your journey and recovery, keep enjoying life, consider Energy healing or Shamanic work🖤
Sending healing thoughts and prayers!
This is why its so so important to listen to your Body and advice given. Natasha Im praying for you.
I have heard SO many cancer patients who were dismissed,l and symptoms explained away only to invade your body more and more for months and even over a year.
They then found themselves where you are. If only they had run more tests or insisted they wanted answers, could have avoided this very scenario. It makes me furious.
I realize doctors aren’t perfect and neither are we. We know our bodied like no one else! Take charge of your health care.
I pray you are feeling better and hope the medicine they have you on now is helping. I am so sorry. It sounds like you have done your homework.
You are in my prayers. ❤
Thank you. I feel pretty lucky that both times, it hadn't spread too far and this is a slower-growing cancer.
So sorry you are going through this. Thank you for sharing. Don’t blame yourself❤
So sorry to hear this Natasha. Thinking of you and your family (including your Doodle). I wish you a full recovery. Please keep us updated so we can be there for you in spirit too 🌺

Thank you so much. Means a lot. Thats what I’m hoping 🫶
This video was extremely informative. Thank you ❤ All the best!
Thank you for sharing your journey. I was diagnosed with stage 3 ILC breast cancer, one sentinel node involved. Time and information are precious to catch it early and prevent recurrence and metastasis. I’m so sorry you are MBC patient. I can relate with you as far as misinformation and trying your best to put pieces together with no formal medical background. It is hard. Sending you love and light. Please keep updating us. ❤️ you got this.
Thank you so much. Best wishes for you!
OMG...I'm so sorry! Thank-you for making this video. I was diagnosed with Stage III in April 2016. Been on Anastrozole ever since. And, recommended to stay on it for 10 years. After this, I'm going to ask my ONC to allow me to stay on this for life (as my cancer was highly Estrogen +ive).
Whatever you and your oncologist thinks is best! ❤ thank you.
I am a stage three breast cancer survivor 19 years and I’ve been on Arimidex for over 10 years
I was diagnosed stage 3B estrogen positive in 2007 and took tamoxifen for 10 years. Good luck to everyone dealing with cancer.
You’re video is amazing and to make it must have taken so much courage. I admire you so much for sharing your experience to help others, your beauty inside and out shines through. I wish you the very, very best in your recovery.🤗
Thank you so much!!

Thank you so much! 🫶🫶
Prayers for you and your family Natasha!
Natasha, I have exactly the same type of cancer you have. Please don't panic. I have been on Kisqali for a year and my tumor shrank to almost nothing. I also have been on the hormone blockers for a year too. A bit of advice, Before you take Kisqali, you need food on your tummy. If you dont eat, you will suffer severe nausea. and possibly diarrhea. That was the worse for me. Once I figured that all out, I didn't have much of a problem with side effects. I just had a mastectomy and they removed my lymph nodes in my right underarm. Don't get discouraged. My oncologist tells me the same thing your dr has told you. If Kisqali stops working, there are many other medicines. I may be on this for lifetime. But I want to continue to live. After a year, my hair did begin to thin around the crown and on the sides of my temples. But recently it has begun to grow thick again. I feel fantastic, except healing from the surgery. Hang in there. Stay positive and enjoy your life. Blood work is the key, you will most likely be checked every few weeks along with ecg. I have scans regularly. I never dreamed a year ago, I would be cancer free. I thought my life was going to end. No matter what age you are, no one wants to die and leave their friends, family and pets. Let my story help you think positive. I doubt you will feel what a lot of people feel weakness and tiredness. I am a walker. I exercise every day. I am living my best life. and my doctors see me as a success story. PS I am American but I live in Italy. Sending you strength and blessings. YOU will beat this. Don't dwell on the side effects. Eating before you take Kisqali is the key. I usually wait about 15 minutes after I finished my meal. Crossing fingers and toes you will be fine. Sounds like you have a fantastic support system. I did have also. Sending you lots of Love. Katie
Thank you so much for this! I’m feeling really great so far. I did have to stop Kisqali for a few weeks to get my neutrophils back up but I’m taking 2 a day now and so far, so good. In many ways, I feel better than ever. Hopeful that my next scan shows no more nodules! 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️
Praying for you and your journey.
Wow I have no idea how you can be so strong. Wish you all the best.
Prayers my dear friend. Our stories are very similar. I’m sending good vibes , light and peace with this next journey of yours. I’m here for you if you need to talk. Always easier talking with those who battled. Much love ❤️ Erin
From elementary school?? How are you now??
When you said you were 42 years old 5 years ago I had to pause it and make sure I heard you right. Wha what? You are doing something right!
Natasha, this is the first time I watched your channel and I am going to subscribe as a TH-camr. I know that’s very important. Thank you for sharing your cancer journey. I’m sending you and your family prayers and my two sweet Pugs Hazel and Mr. Mr. are sending you Pug Hugs.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🫶
Thank you for sharing your healing process❤
Natasha, Thank you so much for sharing your story, it is certainly a big help to others. Always inspired by your courage, yoga and creativity. You are so beautiful so don’t worry about the aging side effects of medication! Lots of love to you.❤❤❤
aw thank you so much! You've been such a big help covering for me. I appreciate it!
Hi Natasha, Just happened to come across your channel today and this was the first video I watched. I’m so sorry you’re going through this and pray for you and your family. I for one would want to hear your journey. As heartbreaking it is it is also very informative. Just didn’t like the Doctor who called and then left you for the whole weekend. He must have missed his classes on patient compassion. You’ve gained a new follower in me and will stop by often.
I appreciate that! Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Ugh, those words suck so much.
Im sorry you are going through this too, but you seem a strong lady!
Im stage 4, mets popping up everywhere 😂
I love watching positive videos of people living so beautifully through this crapstorm !!
It really helps a whole lot ❤
I’m sorry. I hope you find a way to feel good. I have a couple more update and so far, so good. I just hope it continues ❤️
Hi Natasha, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure you'll have hard days but I'm sure you'll get through it. You are super strong and that strength will help you in your treatment. And publish, publish everything you like! YT is free, this is your channel and in my opinion sharing can help you in the process. I always like hearing from you❤ take care😘
Thank you so much for your kind words. That means a lot. And love that I’ve seen you here for years 🫶🫶🫶
All my heart is with you my dearest Yoga teacher . You are such a brave and wonderful woman. All my positive energy and love for you Natasha. Be positive and keep going 🧡🌱

Natasha, I'm so sorry this happened to you and your family! This is such an ugly disease! Thank you so much for telling your BC story and being completey transparent about your journey! For women who have gone through BC or have experienced it with a family member, every little detail matters. Your treatment plan sounds very promising and I wish you the best!
Thank you!! Appreciate that! Hoping it helps people 🫶🫶🫶

Huge prayers for you. ❤
You are such a brave young woman. I wish you will soon be cancer free. Thank you for making this informative and understandable video to help others. That is very kind and selfless of you. You are in my thoughts and I am sending positive wishes for your complete recovery.
Thank you so much! Appreciate that comment! My hope is to help and inform! It can happen to anyone and it’s easy to miss the signs and not understand the process 🙏🏼🫶
Thank you so much for sharing! I’ll pray for a good response from your body, I just found out I have stage four 3 weeks ago. I’m encouraged by you!
So sorry to hear that! You can thrive. I’m feeling great so far. I’ve made a bunch of updates since this 🫶🫶🫶
Thank you so much. I was diagnosed with very early breast cancer last month. My surgery is the end of the week. This was very helpful. Good luck to you.
Thank you. You too! The scary thing is the biopsy punctures the tumor and you never know what is getting out. Just do everything to put yourself in the best position by doing all the things your oncologist recommends 🫶
Ill keep you in my prayers. Please keep us updated. I have a brother in-law who has cancer so now i find myself following cancer patients through their journey. Take care God Bless you and your family
Thank you so much! I will do weekly, shorter updates!
Your channel just popped up and I will be following you. You can get lots of support on TH-cam. Wishing you the best and know you can do well with your positive outlook. Best wishes.
Thank you so much!!🫶
So sorry to hear this Natasha. I remember your life back at Ithaca NY during your 1st cancer diagnosis. I hope you get thru this.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
No apologies. I can see why you’d want to keep that gorgeous hair. Good luck to you and I hope for full 100% cure ❤ Found your channel due to your cancer story but plan to check out your workout videos as I really need those!!
Aw thank you so much! 🫶
Hi Natasha, thank you for sharing your experience with us. Please post more videos for us. I have you in my prayers, and I am pretty sure that you are going to do well with your positive attitude. 🙏🙏🙏 Sending you lots of love. ❤
Thank you so much! I’ve made a few since this 🫶
Praying for you and your family.
I'm pulling for you Natasha you got this! Sending love your way♥️💕
Thank you :)
I started anastrazole in October. I was worried about joint pain, but haven't experienced it so far. Good luck, keep us updated.
That’s awesome. Thank you for sharing 🫶
It seems that these days we have to be our own advocate…your generosity in sharing your story will link you to others that can lend you support and wisdom. 🥰🇨🇦
I am really sorry to hear you're going through this. I don't know really what to write, I just want you to know I do care and I will keep you in my thoughts. A warm hug from Mexico
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. I started following you 4 years ago when I was going through a lumpectomy and I found much comfort in hearing your story. I’m so sorry about the new news. You have such an amazing attitude and I’m still inspired by you.
Thank you so much. Appreciate that 🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is so heartbreaking to hear for me. You’ve been a huge inspiration for me especially through Covid because I’m always in awe of how strong you are. Your videos are what have pushed me to challenge myself in ways I’d never considered with calisthenics and more advanced yoga poses. Thank you for all you’ve given us even while fighting cancer and please take care of yourself 😢
Thank you for being here! I plan to continue classes and don't think this will slow me down once I get used to the medications especially. I filmed a new class today and 2 last week :)
Im soooo sorry to hear!! Pls keep us posted on your treatment etc
Thank you. Made an update after this and will confirm when I have stuff to share 🫶
Hi
Thank you for sharing your cancer journey. Keep up your spirits 🙏
I just discovered your channel. I was diagnosed with Stage 2 invasive lobular carcinoma in Situ in my left breast on Jan. 7, 2021. I had a partial mastectomy Feb. 5 and a lymph node removed. My ONCO score was 6/100. I also had genetic testing to see if I had the BC gene. Came back negative. Had 16 rounds of radiation in April 2021. Mammograms every 6 months. Started Anastrozole April 2021. My heart goes out to you and I will definitely follow your journey. Take good care. 💕
Thank you! Good luck. Mine was also 6 and negative for brca. I think I was just unlucky 🙈🙏🏼🙏🏼
I had the same. Jan 2022. Lymph nodes were negative thankfully.
Hi Natasha, it's Kenny.
I just saw this and I'm so sorry to hear the news. I want to let you know that I totally agree with some of the other comments - lots of people are beating stage 4 these days. I'm 55 and I have seen many examples of positive outcomes with my friends. You have always been a bright light for me and I know you will continue to shine. So stay positive!! Follow the plan!! And go kick its ass!! ☀️
Thanks so much! Great to hear from you!
🎉🎈🎆 These are the kind of optimistic vibrant cheerleading comments that motivate our cells of our body to balance and heal. More of this on the internet! Now, we just need allopathic medicine to make it am educational requirement to know how to talk to patients. Because clearly med school leaves that crucial aspect out even in 2024!🙄
All the best to you, dear Natasha.❤
You are a wonderfull yogini, I love You, and I wish You a fast , easy and complete recovery. and I send you energy for that.
I’m about to start Tamoxifen upon finishing 4 weeks of radiation. I’m seeing a lot of negative posts regarding it (many that refuse it, or start it, and stop before recommended). Your experience stopping it sounds like a common story and taking it for 4 years is longer than many. I’m so sorry you have to be in this rare scenario! Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏🏼 I definitely now see the importance of taking this medication, and hope I have minimal side effects 😬
Thank you. I hope you have no side effects and never see cancer again. I didn’t have any noticeable ones. Just the hot flashes a few years in but who knows if that would have happened anyway. Wish I had stayed on but I think I would have just been dealing with this next year.
How are you doing on the drug?
@@mavericktrucksllc8270 One month in…so far experiencing a few more hot flashes and a little more joint soreness in the mornings…mostly with feet and an old wrist injury that acts up. Also, using a vaginal moisturizer with hyaluronic acid which is helpful. Actually, not too bad so far. Thanks for asking 🙏🏼
Natasha, I'm in my 4th year of taking Arimidex and my side effects have been very minimal. Just the occasional hot flash and some hair thinning. Looking forward to following your healing journey!
Thanks for the message! Makes me feel better when women don’t have many side effects! So far, so good for me! But it’s only been the beginning.
I am just going to start Arimidex tomorrow. I am so nervous because of so many negative reviews and people quitting. So thank you for your post. I am happy to hear your side effects have been minimal. I am suppose to take it for 5 years. You probably only have 1 more year to go. Sending you good vibes😉
You have always been a petit goddess to me. This kind of sharing helps destigmatize cancer. You may save a life by putting your story into the world
!
Thank you, Susan! Hope you are well! Happy new year 🎈
I think you did an awesome job with this video and are helping so many people who have similar worries. I can’t believe the horrible comments of some people. Keep the faith, Natasha!
I have Stage 4 MBC. I am on Letrozole, Ibrance, and Xgeva shots. Mine was bone mets, which have gone away or asleep. Exercise will be your best friend. Keeping active helps the side effects.
My hair thinned but then grew back. Skin gets dry, so good lotions are great. Your attitude is great and goes a long way, too. Second opinions are also great. I have never felt like i have had cancer.
Thanks for sharing! And same, never felt like I’ve had anything or felt sick from it. I’m feeling super strong and healthy right now ❤
I’m stage 4 also for the last 5 years. On Ibrance, letrozole and Iv drip for bone strengthening. Mets in my bones, had a couple pins put in and radiation. I’m thriving, it is possible 💖
I don't even know you, but I am so, SO sorry!! All the best wishes, and good energy, from an internet stranger. I really hope you beat this.
Thank you.
Would be praying for you to be healed completely. Tq for sharing, God bless you, Amen.
Please keep us posted. Hugs to you!
Don’t be slack this time...be vigilant in taking your meds. I sincerely wish you a long happy life.
I can’t be how cavalier she was about taking the Tamoxifen.
Hi, Natasha. Fellow yoga teacher here, similar age, recently diagnosed with breast cancer and about to undergo surgery. Your video popped up in my feed and I found your story very relatable. I’m so sorry to hear about your recurrence, but you seem to have a good attitude, the exercise you do will undoubtedly help, and as others have said there is definitely hope and it can be managed. Just this morning I listened to a Radical Remission podcast interview with a woman (Debra Nozik) who’s been living well with a stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis for 20-plus years now - you may want to check it out (and the books Radical Hope and Radical Remission) for inspiration. Wishing you a happy, healthy, vibrant life in spite of this disease. ❤
Best of luck to you! Thanks for sharing. Can’t believe how many people are getting cancer and younger 😭
I will pray for u God bless you gor this info
Please keep the cancer updates. Praying for your health. 🙏🏻
Thank you. I’ve done quite a few since this one. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Prayers for you!! GOD bless you!!
