My fiancé was diagnosed with cancer recently

My fiancé was recently diagnosed with an ovarian cancer called dysgerminoma which is a pretty rare form of cancer apparently. She is only 21 and is at stage 3 of her cancer.

We found out in a weird way, her stomach for the past month or two was constantly bloated, at the time we thought she might be pregnant so we had her take a test which did end up coming up as positive. We didn’t know this at the time but apparently tumors can make you produce a lot of hcg ( if you didn’t know its what pregnancy test for). So for a while we were thinking she was pregnant. A week later she had a very heavy period that made us think she had a miscarriage. Maybe a week after that her stomach was hurting so bad if you touched it she would be in a lot of pain, and she would throw up anything she ate.

So we brought her to the er where they ended up finding a very large mass in her. It turned out she had cancer and the “bloating” was a 11 pound tumor that was inside of one of her ovaries making it get massive and squishing her organs. Luckily she did have the tumor removed after a few days at the hospital. They ended up removing one of her ovaries which we were very happy that it was only one since we do want to have kids one day.

Over all this has been extremely stressful but I’m trying my best to support her i am starting to realize that im not doing as well mentally as i thought. I haven’t been able to get out of the bed like i used to , going to work feels wrong while this is happening but i have to and i am constantly thinking about how this should of never of happened to her, she is only 21, we only had been engaged for a little less than a month and all this had to happen to her. She is the last person to deserve this, i seriously have never felt as happy as i have been until i met her. Her chances are really good this cancer is very treatable but still that thought of the worse keeps me up at night. She is going to do about 3-4 months of chemotherapy and they say the cancer is unlikely to come back. I just hope everything goes well for her.
