FREE TOYS OR GIFT CARDS FOR TOYS! Everyone who signs up to my giveaway with Bellesa wins something! Ohhhh la la! 🙃 www.bboutique.co/vibe/gracehelbig-yt
Hey so it's a discount off your order up to $250, not a giveaway for anything free. Idk what they told you it was but this is kind of like false advertising.
@@ralmilk It is a good discount, but it's also not a giveaway. In my country calling it a competition and a giveaway when it's a discount coupon, is false advertising and highly illegal. Now the company has my email which I have no doubt will be sold on, which, also, not cool.
I have missed this so much. I actually say this to myself ALL OF THE TIME! Thank you G! I am so happy for this video and hearing you say “breast cancer survivor “ ❤❤❤❤❤
I frequent the "canyouseeit???!" when asking about an object I am holding while placing it in front of my other hand as to catch the person's focus as if they are a camera even tho they are not and there is no need, but I feel like there is, for the bit to be complete in my soul lol
I swear the earth stopped rotating for a second when Grace graced us with "CAN YOU SEEEE IT!" Great to see you doing so well and kicking cancer in da nutzs (or in you case your left boob)
To hear you say the words “can ya see it” was great but nothing beats the words “breast cancer survivor” ❤ that little quiver in your voice when you said it 🥹 yes, you freaking did it, girl 💪🏻❤️
I'm so happy Mamrie convinced you this was a sponsor you could work with! This is the most fun adult toy presentation I've seen & I have several friends who were Pure Romance shills for a very long time.
So happy you're much better now Grace 🥰 I'm a cancer specialist and it's really interesting hearing these reports from patients and I feel it improves my practice with my patients too, so thank you for sharing! I've never commented before, but It's also very strange to realise my favourite people on the internet like you and hank and even jake from Vsauce 3 have battled with cancer, specially when I started watching you all since before I went to Uni. Wishing you ALL the best ♥
Lupron straight up sent me to a place of emotion that should be documented on the discovery channel. Bless my loved ones who had to handle me 😂 Grace, thank you for being vulnerable and open. As a long time quiet viewer seeing this era of Grace is such a time. Wishing you health, happiness and so much joy for 2024 and beyond ❤️
Lupron is the worst! And probably the best, if it does what it’s supposed to… but damn! So much about cancer treatment sucks. I was not prepared for any of it. You ladies are amazing!! Keep up the positivity Grace ❤❤ It makes a really shitty situation more tolerable.
I had my ovaries removed and I’m doing chemo now. The early menopause and chemo together are pretty shit, so this video is really hitting home. Sexual health has been a big concern of mine because i needed a total hysterectomy and it seems like it’s the last thing that medical professionals want to discuss. I’m doing a cold cap program cause I heard about it from you. Thank you soooooo much for sharing your journey.
I've been a fan since the "what's up f*ers" days, but you are now officially my hero. I wanna be just like you when I grow up, but since I'm over 70 and still haven't grown up,..... You're incredibly brave to share this, and I suspect you're helping more than just your 2.6M subs. All the best, DrD
I helped my wife through 19 chemo infusions and I have now had 6 of them. Accordingly, I have achieved "veteran" status at my local chemo infusion clinic. I can definitely relate to your comments and I much appreciate the positive spin you put on the very stressful situation. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the laugh therapy!
I just finished radiation a few weeks ago and want to say get several tubs of aquaphor! My radiation oncologist said to use it at least twice a day but my surgeons said I should use it 4-6 times a day especially as you get closer to the end of the treatment course. It’s super annoying but really slather that stuff on… it’ll help a lot. Best of luck ♥️
Oh yeah, and be prepared to ditch supportive undergarments. My onc nurse told me she didn't WANT me to wear a bra - I couldn't thank her enough for saying so.
I’m a 9 year cancer survivor (diagnosed at 28 :( ) and had estrogen positive, stage 2 breast cancer. I was treated with FEC-D chemo, surgery, radiation, then more surgery as I found out I’m a BRCA1 mutation carrier. My most unexpected side effects have been, unfortunately, chronic/long-lasting - cancer related fatigue and permanent hair loss. Both have been so hard to come to terms with as my “new normal” isn’t even what I was expecting my “new normal” to look like and I’ve had difficulty finding others who have experienced these long term side effects too. Thank you for sharing your experience, Grace!
I suffer with chronic fatigue and permanent hair loss after cancer, I’m sorry you experienced this too coz most peoples hair grows back and people try to tell me hair grows back and I’m like no. Not for me, and after many years i still cant quite accept it. Hope you are doing ok. The “new normal” is definately not what i expected either
A forever friend of mine will pause in conversation... then blink her eyes back into alert mode and simply say 'chemo brain'. I'm just happy she's still here to joke about it. 🤗
grace screaming canyouseeittt?? at the camera whilst thrusting (pardon the pun) the object into the camera lens is something that has been greatly missed. much nostalgia
Coming on the internet and talking about all the uncomfortable things so even one singular person going through something similar can not feel alone is peak Helbig. Good on ya Grace ❤
Thanks you so much for your brutal honesty and humor throughout. A friend was just diagnosed and I was happy to be able to share your TH-cam page with her to ease and inform her process. You're helping more people than you realize.
LOVE the 'can you see it?' throw back, put me in such a good mood hearing you feeling a bit like your old self and giving us long time fans a bit of nostalgia! Love ya Grace!
Thank you for sharing not only your experience, but yourself! My mother passed away from breast cancer in ‘89. I was only 3 at the time. You’ve allowed me to get closer to her in a way that’s inexplicable. I never wanted to hear anything about it…. I have to give you your flowers! You’ve always been awesome; But this is on another level. Thanks for sharing Grace. 💚
Grace, I've been watching you since day one and was recently diagnosed with hormone negative HER2 positive breast cancer. Your channel was the first place I came to. Thank you.
I've owned the pebble for a few months now, and imo it's an excellent budget-friendly way to figure out if suction is for you (and if the answer is no, it still vibrates 😄)
As a woman of a certain age who is going through menopause "naturally," my heart goes out to you, having to experience that hellstorm in the midst of everything else. Thank you for talking about it. ❤
I can completely understand and relate to having a hard time trusting your body after you've gone through something so difficult. It's almost like it's betrayed you, and you have to learn to both trust it again, and find your new normal. And if you happen to have a weird body that likes to throw you weird curveballs, you have to find peace and acceptance.
Grace, I've been a long time subscriber and follower, and I'm just in awe of how you just keep being authentically you, even with the shit cancer diagnosis and chemo. So glad you're better. ❤
This video touched my feelings like no other. You are so precious, the courage and dignity you show us is so pure. The memories of my own breast cancer sojourn (2 times) popped into my head, and how I counseled many a fearful woman. I stand in awe of your gracefulness, Grace. Stay sweet and take care ♎️☮️ I ordered a toy for myself straight away! Thank you!
Time for my first toy and Grace is vibing. Thank you Grace! I am super excited! And your brows are looking beautiful! And you just mentioned them! I am proud of them too. O diarrhea guidelines.. back to the video! Thanks again girl~
As a fellow breast cancer warrior, I just want to say, you are doing awesome!! And being 7 years post chemo, on hormone suppression treatments, forced menopause is no joke. It sucks and I’m still dealing with the loss of libido. Ugh, cancer, the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you for this sponsorship! Amazing product and fantastic discount. Seriously life changing. 😂😂
I feel like a lot of symptoms really remind me of pregnancy (probably because of the hormonal similarities), where I experienced lots of symptoms that I didn’t think would happen (like the smelling thing, sexual changes, severe fatigue, etc). But at the end of it my stuff resolved and I got the baby I wanted in return for it. You are a trooper Grace for going through all this, I’m so glad to hear you’re doing better and better!
Grace! If you’re still experiencing hot flashes, I found that a prescription for gabapentin helped a ton…with hot flashes and with sleeping as well. So glad you’re past the chemo part. Since your radiation is on tap, consider getting Manuka honey lotion/ointment and applying religiously after each treatment. It will reduce the sunburn and skin damage. Best of luck!
I'm currently perimenopausal and so much of what you were saying resonated with me- I feel like my brain has totally fallen out my head, and I'm even clumsier than normal! Was so good to hear 'can ya see it!?' again and to see how positive you seem right now. Now to see if I can get a vibrator sent to me in the UK, although menopause has put a pause on feeling frisky.
For my breast cancer, I did AC-T (Adriamycin, Cyclophosphamide, Taxol), and I wouldn't say I had too many unexpected side effects, but one thing that happened that was fun was that my farts started sounding like a balloon that's been part-way blown up and let loose ripping through the air. It's the butthole hair falling out. 100/10, brought me lots of much needed joy.
Ahhhh ok so i cannot relate to the cancer + chemo, but what you said about getting sucked into reality TV made SO much sense to me and I can so relate. Since we lost my mom (in a traumatic way) 2.5 years ago, I've started to mostly only want to watch reality TV... i do not want to watch violence or doomsday type things. I hadnt really connected it to my grief/trauma until watching this video. So GRAAAACE you are helping not only fellow cancer people but the rest of us too 💜 THANK YOU CAN YOU SEE ITTTTT ("it" being the gratitude and love!!)
Hi Grace, this is such amazing information! I'm always so grateful to hear about another young breast cancer survivor's experience. I was diagnosed when I was 33 and it's been 9 years since my diagnosis, which feels crazy but also amazing. My lesser-known side effect was how achy my legs would get. They hurt SO MUCH all the time. I also had the brain fog/spacey side effects. Truthfully that never really went away - I still forget what I'm saying mid-sentence and my recall for names of people and things is pretty low. But I've learned to be gentle with myself and have a good sense of humor about it. Just a couple clarifications from your video that I wanted to make: HER2+ and Triple Positive are not exactly the same thing. You need to be HER2+ to have Triple Positive Breast Cancer, but there are other types of breast cancer that are HER2+. I had HER2+ Ductal Carcinoma. I did have the exact same combo of chemo drugs as you, though. Also, it's the chemo itself that will make you go into menopause and Lupron is available to preserve your fertility. I chose not to do Lupron because my insurance wouldn't cover it and I wasn't planning on having children, but I still went through menopause. Those hot flashes are fun, huh? :) Wishing you the best of everything! The effects of cancer don't just go away, but with time (and maybe some therapy) things really do get better and better. 💕
I'm so glad you're doing well! My cancer treatment was difficult, and my first 4 rounds of chemo took me 4 months to get through. I had colon cancer, and we caught it literally just in time. I was stage 3 out of 4. The chemo they gave me caused permanent neurological changes, including neuropathy in my hands and feet, increased migraine, deep, abdominal spasming, and changes in cognition. I used to be MENSA! I'm glad I got through it all. I am now entirely focused on healing in everything I do, including the music I make and the merch I offer ~
Proud of your efforts to feel good, do what you like and incredibly continue updating here on YT bc I mean these topics are not broadly spoken the side effects of the treatment in this detailed way Keep pushing grl on being cancer free!!! ❤❤❤
GRACE IVE BEEN ON LUPRON IN 2023 AND IM 22 YEARS OLD! I am trying to treat endometriosis and you’re making me feel so seen! I also had mood swings like crazy and would get unreasonably frustrated at everything!
Grace I've been watching you for literally forever so say I am elated is an understatement of how happy I am for you. Hope happy I am for you to close this chapter how hopeful I am for you for the future I absolutely adore your strength humor and light you shine baby girl you SHINE BIG HUGE HUGS LOVE YOU ❤️
My most unexpected side effect has been constant blurred vision from HP! I haven't been able to see clearly since mid-September, and there's no end in sight since we gotta keep at this stuff for another 9 months. Large print books are now my jam 😂
I also got this symptom which sucks coz i was a very visual person. I got a haemorrhage in the back of my left eye in 2018 and theres no current ways to fix it. I can still see thankfully but its very blurry and i cant see peoples mouths in person so i find it hard to read facial expressions now
Tip from an alopecia areata sufferer and person on chemo for her Crohns. Once your hair starts growing back out, I can recommend hair powder for keeping the tufts of hair under control.
Damn you and Mamrie just randomly crossed my mind at 6:48 AM so I started lurking yalls pages and never thought Id see this. Im only 31 seconds in rn but hoping you’re feeling well and taking it easy. Thanks for all the laughs you gave teenage me😂😂😂looking forward to 40 more years!
Thank you for talking about the hoodies and clothing that is perfect for infusions. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have infusions. So easy! I’m so happy for you! ❤
Thank you for sharing your cancer journey as you have helped me through mine tremendously! I have HER2 pos breast cancer and have been on the same treatment as you. I have the BARD gene (the lesser known breast cancer gene) so my journey departs here to major surgery soon. My worst side effect was my heart racing the week after chemo. Whenever I got up to do anything my heart would race like I was doing an intense workout, heavy breathing and all. It was the scariest part for me! We are warriors! Sending you healing energy!! ❤
I’m on immunotherapy treatment for melanoma and I totally get the reality tv thing. I live in France and bought a subscription to a streaming service so I could see a lot of the shows and just veg. I am so glad you are talking about all of this. Thanks! Much love from Gensac, France.
even w/triple negative breast cancer, the chemo put me in menopause. I discovered that on my own prior to chemo, but when I brought it up to my oncologist, he was like, "duh - so what?" They covered every other possible little blip my body might experience, but couldn't be bothered to prepare me for that. He said at my age, it was a 50/50 coin toss as to whether it would return after treatment. also a factor that my 15 year relationship ended 4 months prior to the diagnosis. almost everything designed for menopausal women excludes breast cancer survivors, even when the treatment is non-hormone based, just b/c they don't want us messing up their numbers. glad you're having a better experience, and thanks for the giveaway!
Grace, you're a real one. Thanks for hooking a girl up! Congrats on the eyebrows. 😊 Thank you so much for your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable. I feel you on being sensitive to media consumption. When I was really sick I could only watch very happy cartoons about love and friendship. Anything else made the dread too hard to bear. Glad you're doing better!!
How great of you to give such a candid and HILARIOUS insight so others can have a heads up should they also be diagnosed. Gotta say... I'm an old fart and boy! Toys have come a looooonnnng way!😮😂😂😂😂
The cosmic horror that is the Cancer Dancers gag from MyMusic coming full circle. My dad is going through his third round with cancer this year, so I get how difficult it can be on the body. I'm so proud of you for getting through treatment and manifesting many healthy and fulfilling years to come!
You are a tank, I am so proud of you. We wasn't told any of this in UK, you get cancer then just winging it get told nothing. Our healthcare is appalling. I had Acinic Cell Carcinoma brutal surgery that wing it from there no radiotherapy or chemo. I look like I eaten by jaws xx
I was on lupron in my early twenties, for other conditions, so I ended up experiencing menopausal symptoms when my mom and aunts hadn't reached that stage of life yet. It was funny and surreal to have them asking me what hot flashes feel like lol

I need one of those 😉🤨
I love you! I have watched you since the early days of Daily Grace and seeing you on Tech TV/Attack of the Show..... I really love you!
The “canyouseeittttt!?” Was such a throw back that I didn’t know I needed. I will now be stimming this for weeks haha thanks Helbig! ❤
Ahhh!! I got so giddy to hear it!! Made my heart soo happy!!
It was EVERYTHING!
I loved every repetition of it! Such a simple joke, but so funny to me, every single time! 😂
I have missed this so much. I actually say this to myself ALL OF THE TIME! Thank you G! I am so happy for this video and hearing you say “breast cancer survivor “ ❤❤❤❤❤

I swear the earth stopped rotating for a second when Grace graced us with "CAN YOU SEEEE IT!" Great to see you doing so well and kicking cancer in da nutzs (or in you case your left boob)
I cracked up so hard when you said “ It’s like a little horny Polly pocket” that was just the best!
And thanks for such a sweet deal Ms Grace!! I placed my order already! 🎉
@@juliesue9895 🙌🏻
I saw a tiktok of someone doing a haul and they did the CAN YOU SEE IT bit, and it was so fun seeing a Grace viewer in the wild.
love that!
To hear you say the words “can ya see it” was great but nothing beats the words “breast cancer survivor” ❤ that little quiver in your voice when you said it 🥹 yes, you freaking did it, girl 💪🏻❤️
I'm so happy Mamrie convinced you this was a sponsor you could work with! This is the most fun adult toy presentation I've seen & I have several friends who were Pure Romance shills for a very long time.
You had me at "horny Polly Pocket" and "silent... for when you're at the movies!"

Proud of you, Grace ♡♡
Me too 😂❤
Glad to see you havent lost that spark. Seems like the whole situation hasnt broken your spirit. You go girl.
"Popsockets could never. And they shouldn't! That's not what they're made for" Lmaoooooooo

Oh yeah, and be prepared to ditch supportive undergarments. My onc nurse told me she didn't WANT me to wear a bra - I couldn't thank her enough for saying so.
@@TiffSpiffyabsolutely! Loose, soft shirts are the way to go with nothing on underneath
Having Grace smooshing a vibrator at the camera and saying 'CAN YOU SEE IT?!' has warmed my millennial heart. I encourage these changes

CAN YOU SEE IT??? so nostalgic...brings me back to middle school!!! im 25 now! sending so much love. thanks for keeping active on here
the most "grace" video ever and i could not be enjoying it more! i love this woman.
i never knew that i missed CAN YOU SEE IT until now. for the 1486th time you made my day
I've owned the pebble for a few months now, and imo it's an excellent budget-friendly way to figure out if suction is for you (and if the answer is no, it still vibrates 😄)
The "Can You See It" throwback made me sob...
This vid coming from the person that created Not Too Deep shows your growth and was wonderful to see. You're a cool human. Also, big OG Grace vibes.
As a woman of a certain age who is going through menopause "naturally," my heart goes out to you, having to experience that hellstorm in the midst of everything else. Thank you for talking about it. ❤

The not being done after chemo was the hardest part to work through. I had been counting down infusions and then when I got to zero nothing changed
Grace, amazing sweater. Love it!
Y’all, the air vibe. It is magical.
I love that top. It's like Ms. Frizzle with a reasonable amount of chill.

I was stage 3 out of 4. The chemo they gave me caused permanent neurological changes, including neuropathy in my hands and feet, increased migraine, deep, abdominal spasming, and changes in cognition. I used to be MENSA! I'm glad I got through it all. I am now entirely focused on healing in everything I do, including the music I make and the merch I offer ~
what a journey you've been on! glad to hear you focused on healing, you deserve it!
Proud of your efforts to feel good, do what you like and incredibly continue updating here on YT bc I mean these topics are not broadly spoken the side effects of the treatment in this detailed way
Keep pushing grl on being cancer free!!! ❤❤❤
Helbig "Can you see it?" Nice callback from olden days. Appreciated!
GRACE IVE BEEN ON LUPRON IN 2023 AND IM 22 YEARS OLD! I am trying to treat endometriosis and you’re making me feel so seen! I also had mood swings like crazy and would get unreasonably frustrated at everything!
same! i cried at the weather being bad! lol
The burst of joy I felt hearing you say CAN YA SEE IT. I had no idea I missed it that much. ❤
OMG when the "The Pebble" was bobbled 😂😂 I fell off my chair Mamrie style, cackling!!! 😂
And I want that cosmic sweater!! 😍🌠🌌
Grace I've been watching you for literally forever so say I am elated is an understatement of how happy I am for you. Hope happy I am for you to close this chapter how hopeful I am for you for the future I absolutely adore your strength humor and light you shine baby girl you SHINE BIG HUGE HUGS LOVE YOU ❤️
My most unexpected side effect has been constant blurred vision from HP! I haven't been able to see clearly since mid-September, and there's no end in sight since we gotta keep at this stuff for another 9 months. Large print books are now my jam 😂
I also got this symptom which sucks coz i was a very visual person. I got a haemorrhage in the back of my left eye in 2018 and theres no current ways to fix it. I can still see thankfully but its very blurry and i cant see peoples mouths in person so i find it hard to read facial expressions now
YES large print books!
2:20-2:23 ngl that was a jump scare, but it was welcomed and gave me so much nostalgia 😂😂
Tip from an alopecia areata sufferer and person on chemo for her Crohns. Once your hair starts growing back out, I can recommend hair powder for keeping the tufts of hair under control.
thank you!
"waterproof, for when you're out in the rain".
you seemed to handle it really well. laughter and chemicals in the bloodstream are the best medicine
Damn you and Mamrie just randomly crossed my mind at 6:48 AM so I started lurking yalls pages and never thought Id see this. Im only 31 seconds in rn but hoping you’re feeling well and taking it easy. Thanks for all the laughs you gave teenage me😂😂😂looking forward to 40 more years!
At the movies lol
SO happy for your eyebrows!!
Hank better watch his back, Helbig is coming for his science brand!
GRACEEEE the "canyaseeitttttt" made me so nostalgic. Love you so much girl
It's interesting how similar this is to some pregnancy/post partum symptoms. The menopausal symptoms, psychological symptoms, even vision changes.
Thank you for talking about the hoodies and clothing that is perfect for infusions. I have Multiple Sclerosis and have infusions. So easy! I’m so happy for you! ❤
yes they are awesome!
Thank you for sharing your cancer journey as you have helped me through mine tremendously! I have HER2 pos breast cancer and have been on the same treatment as you. I have the BARD gene (the lesser known breast cancer gene) so my journey departs here to major surgery soon. My worst side effect was my heart racing the week after chemo. Whenever I got up to do anything my heart would race like I was doing an intense workout, heavy breathing and all. It was the scariest part for me! We are warriors! Sending you healing energy!! ❤
💖🙏🏻
Anyone else got real stoked to hear the canyaseeit revival! 😂❤️
I’m on immunotherapy treatment for melanoma and I totally get the reality tv thing. I live in France and bought a subscription to a streaming service so I could see a lot of the shows and just veg. I am so glad you are talking about all of this. Thanks! Much love from Gensac, France.

even w/triple negative breast cancer, the chemo put me in menopause. I discovered that on my own prior to chemo, but when I brought it up to my oncologist, he was like, "duh - so what?" They covered every other possible little blip my body might experience, but couldn't be bothered to prepare me for that. He said at my age, it was a 50/50 coin toss as to whether it would return after treatment. also a factor that my 15 year relationship ended 4 months prior to the diagnosis. almost everything designed for menopausal women excludes breast cancer survivors, even when the treatment is non-hormone based, just b/c they don't want us messing up their numbers. glad you're having a better experience, and thanks for the giveaway!
i'm so sorry you've been going through all of that 💖
You look really happy Grace. 🥺 I said, out loud to my dog, “look at us growing up and talking about sex drive and menopause symptoms let’s goooo”
Sending you all of my love and best wishes! You are helping so many people and it’s so awesome. You are an amazing human being.
I hope you got/get to see Hank Green’s stand up about cancer.. he had some really great bits that would fit so well into this video
I did see it and it was WONDERFUL!
Grace, you're a real one. Thanks for hooking a girl up! Congrats on the eyebrows. 😊 Thank you so much for your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable. I feel you on being sensitive to media consumption. When I was really sick I could only watch very happy cartoons about love and friendship. Anything else made the dread too hard to bear. Glad you're doing better!!
yes! love and friendship were tolderable!
Hey grace, you rule. Your vulnerability is so helpful for folks. that sweater is fucking dope as hell, too.
💪🏻
It feels good seeing you getting back into the grove! Get it girl!
I did NOT have Grace selling sex toys on my 2024 bingo card, but I love it.
this is very/scary - life/changing. beautiful of you to share. thank you, and thank yourself!
How great of you to give such a candid and HILARIOUS insight so others can have a heads up should they also be diagnosed. Gotta say... I'm an old fart and boy! Toys have come a looooonnnng way!😮😂😂😂😂
The cosmic horror that is the Cancer Dancers gag from MyMusic coming full circle.
My dad is going through his third round with cancer this year, so I get how difficult it can be on the body. I'm so proud of you for getting through treatment and manifesting many healthy and fulfilling years to come!
wishing your dad the best!
You truly are an amazing person! You make me smile when all I wanna do is sleep the day away. Thank you for sharing your journey, yourself with us! ❤
Thank you for sharing all of this Grace!! You are SO awesome always!!
Congrats, you almost made me spit out my coffee from giggles.
Living for these chaotic vibes (pun intended) and hope you're doing well!
"You do what you do to get through" ♡
You are a tank, I am so proud of you. We wasn't told any of this in UK, you get cancer then just winging it get told nothing. Our healthcare is appalling. I had Acinic Cell Carcinoma brutal surgery that wing it from there no radiotherapy or chemo. I look like I eaten by jaws xx
Glad you are getting better Grace.
Man I missed the "Can you see it!?" One of my favorite Helbig things. I quote it more than I should.
i love that sweater!!!!!!! AHHHHH I WANT IT
YES YOU GET THAT BAG HELBIG! ps the canyouseeit- i died
“CAN YOU SEE IT?!”😆🥰That was like a strangely aggressive hug that I desperately needed today.
I was on lupron in my early twenties, for other conditions, so I ended up experiencing menopausal symptoms when my mom and aunts hadn't reached that stage of life yet.
It was funny and surreal to have them asking me what hot flashes feel like lol
Thank you for sharing! You are a light on the internet! ❤️
