My First Week of Chemotherapy (breast cancer)
On December 21, 2021, I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. My treatment plan begins with 8 rounds of chemo. This is my first week of treatment. To get a 1 year supply of Vitamin D + 5 individual travel packs FREE with your first purchase, go to https://athleticgreens.com/eamonandbec
After receiving my diagnosis, my team of doctors devised a treatment plan that will give me the best chances of beating breast cancer at 31 years old. It all begins with 8 rounds of chemotherapy. I will receive bi-weekly infusions which (if all goes according to plan) will bring us into May of 2022. Our hope is that the chemotherapy will attack all of the cancer cells that remain in my right breast and kill any little cancerous cells that may have metastasized throughout my body. Unfortunately, there is no real way to detect how well my body is responding to the treatment as I go through it but I will continue to meditate and focus my energy on healing.
I want to take a second to thank you all again for being on this journey with us. We can genuinely feel the love we are receiving worldwide and know that it is a crucial part of our healing. Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers 🥰⚡️☀️ 💛

Don’t worry how you share your story mama, you are already such an inspiration to us all. Peace and love.
Please make a gofundme or post your cashapp or amazon wishlist. You guys have gotten me through some tough times and I just want to give you something back. I appreciate you so much and the world would be a better place if everyone was even a little like you guys.💜
🙏❤️
We haven’t stopped thinking about you guys.. not for a single day. Like an annoying mother who wants to check in with their kids 24/7 but resists the urge haha. Love you both ❤️🌻 so proud of you guys.
❤
May God comfort you both @Eamon & Bec throughout every day of this journey & beyond 😘🙏🏼…
Well said Riley and Elayna. Xx
@Eamon & Bec Beautiful soul’s, in our beautiful world. A day at a time, those tiny grateful finds are a blessing in the journey…. Thinking of you both x
Every thought and every message is received with wide open arms. We appreciate all of you and love you so much 💛🌞.
I was diagnosed with cancer age 22 and I’m now 13 years all clear. I see the strength and determination in you Bec. You’ve got this 💪🏻
Round 3 of chemo for triple positive BC for me this week. Working on that patience and acceptance (it’s TOUGH!). You will get through this Bec, and you are making such a huge difference in sharing your story to educate (and save!) other women. Wishing you comfort and strength for the rest of your treatment
You got this 😘✊
Good luck to you! 🙏🏻
Sending positive healing vibes to you! 🤗
I also wish you healing in this difficult time.
Wishing you good luck as you go through chemo. I had BC in 2020, and went through a year of treatment. The philosophy “one foot in front of the other” helped me get through it.
It’s always amazing to see what human spirit is. I’m watching the story of a couple I barely know, from a country I’ve never been to, and yet I’m joining an army of followers with hundred of messages of support and good wishes. This is literally larger than life. You guys are NOT alone in this journey, and I’m hoping the best from Chile, South America.
I’m balling my eyes out watching you go through this!! You have such courage to post your journey online. I’m sorry Eamon can’t go into the hospital with you.
My mom passed away from breast cancer 25 years ago so this hit home for me! Stay strong Bec 💕
I’m so grateful you’re strong enough to share this with the world. Thank you for allowing us to laugh with you, cheer with you, and cry with you. You’re so strong and so brave. I am so proud of you. Sending you the most healing and positive vibes Bec and Eamon ❤️ you’re both sunshine in human form. I am filled with gratitude for you.
So proud of you guys and I am obsessed with Osos’ loving, healing energy. I started to tear up when he was laying on you, Bec, and giving you all the doggy love. They’re so intuitive and healing and I really am so glad you have both Eamon and Osos there to support you and love you. My thoughts and prayers are with you guys 💜✨
You are such a blessing to this world!
I can’t imagine anyone watching this and not feeling so inspired by you guys!
Keep it up,everything is going to be alright!
You can do this. I’ve been living productively with active cancer for five years and still going strong. Reach out if you need any ideas. Prayers to you guys!
