This video is more proof that none of us have any idea what someone might be going through or has gone through. Everyone needs to be kind and just appreciate everything in your life. Such an honest and very personal video to share. What an incredible woman you are! 💗
Julie your such an inspiration , I would have never have guessed you have gone through all this as your always so postive. Thank you for sharing this your so brave❤ your scars are beautiful
When i used to watch you on anastasias chanel i used to think this women is really hard to please but after watching your channel i have really seen who you are and your so lovely and have been through so much thankyou for sharing your story and im sorry that i judged you xx
I have the same as scar as you but mine was done 25yeats a go when I was 17 years old. I had 2 football sizes cysts in my womb Almost died after from internal bleeding and I haven’t been able to have my own children. But I’m alive and my scar is a constant reminder of how lucky I was xxxx
Honestly, I cried, it's horrible what you had to go through, you are a strong woman, your daughter and son must be so inspired by you, you battled your way through some horrible situations, you come out stronger and a fighter, you deserve nothing but happiness, love and support, I really do wish you all the best for your future. Everyday is truly a gift, when my husband died back in December from a brain hemorrhage, it truly makes you appreciate each day you wake up, as painful as is passing is, I will never take for granted each day I can live for us both, you truly are an inspiration julie, I truly mean that, I so glad that you decided to do RU-vid like Anna, the world needs more people like you and your family.
Julie you’re incredible! I love how positive you are about your scar and it takes a lot of courage to talk about something like this to the whole internet, that’s another level.. Such an amazing woman with beautiful children 💜
I have so much respect for you sharing your story, I was born with major facial deformities, 13 surgeries later my face, my mouth and and body are scarred, I used to pile on makeup to cover up what I could on my face, but in the last two years I've worn no make up :) embrace the things that make you you :)
Your scar is a beautiful accessory that reminds you on a daily basis how brave you are and how you can get through the toughest of days. look at you now! You need to experience the rain to get the beautiful rainbow. Thanks for sharing x
Thank you for sharing your story Julie. Our battles make us stronger. You were meant to be here and bring Atticus into the world. You are one amazing lady xx
Julie, thank you for sharing your story. This was very emotional for me as I’ve had close family members diagnosed with cancer, I grew up experiencing lots of surgeries and chemo etc. You’re an inspiration and I’m so happy you’re here to tell the story. All the love to you, your amazing mum, Ana and Atticus ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank u Julie for sharing this u are amazing woman and thank goodness u had someone looking out for u u have been so brave share those scars as a amazing person u are xx love watching u xx the scars are beautiful and part of xxx
Julie you are so brave, and have been through so much! Thank you for sharing your story and I hope it makes us all appreciate our bodies a little more in this world where we are all expected to be perfect and not have stories to tell and marks on our bodies that tell those stories for us! ❤️
thank you for sharing your story, a brave person has scars ❤️ a braver person tells its story :) your story resonates with me. Ive stayed in hospital afew times with pancreatitis and I too am lucky to be alive the nhs really are amazing :)
This is such a beautiful story! I’d love to hear about you talking about how these surgeries affected you having Atticus if you’re comfortable talking about that. Sending much love💗
Inspirational! So glad you are able to tell your story to others who could be in the same position, horrific experience for you I couldn’t imagine what you had to go through. Thank you for sharing. Scars make you you, it’s amazing and beautiful.
Julie I love how you tell stories, love how whatever you talk about you are so thorough and make it so interesting. Could listen to you talk about anything but particularly how you talk about difficult topics and struggles gives so much strength to us. Keep being just as you are! Xx
Thank you for sharing Julie! When I was 20 I had a cyst removed from my ovary and had the same per cancerous cells and had to have the entire ovary removed. I hope one day I can come back here and see that comment and know i made the right decision when I can have my own children one day! It’s nice knowing that I’m not alone and I’m sorry you had to go through all of that!
Bless your heart. You have came through so much. I wish you all the health and happiness for all your future. You are a lovely person with a beautiful family. You are an inspiration. 💓Xx
You are amazing Julie. So brave and such an inspirational lady. Thanks for sharing your story. Have a fantastic holiday - you definitely deserve the life you’re living now!! All the best Xx
Aww Julie, you are one very Brave lady! You have been through so much and have hid it so well. I honestly think it's great to show others your bravery! I have bad varicose veins on my right leg, I've had these since I was 18 and despite having operations they've always grown back, It has stopped me feeling able to wear certain clothes, through fear of being judged! I wish I could follow in your footsteps lovely lady x
How lovely of you to share your experience with us. You certainly went through some major trauma. It goes to show how truly strong you are and after all of that you were blessed with Atticus xxx Stay as lovely as you are and thanks for sharing 🥰 xx
That's an incredible story Julie, you are so brave and an inspiration. Such a touching story, you look fantastic in your swimwear and love your videos x
Hi Julie, Thank for telling your story, thank you also for your honesty for allowing us to go on that journey with you (even though we could not physically be there for you) love Ann x
Thank you so much for sharing. We don't realise how lucky we are sometimes to wake up and have our health and this made me remember. Bless you and have an amazing time in Ibiza, show off that scar!!
Wow what an amazing lady you are Julie. Such a beautiful scar and shows how strong you are as a person to go through such trauma. Thank you for being so brave open and honest. Sending you lots of love xx 😘
Well done for keep fighting through the hard times. Life definitely throws some challenges at us. I’ve got about 5 key hole scars from having cervical cancer and they still sometimes bother me 3.5 years down the line so I’m taking your advice for sure to think that saved my life having them there and it will take time to get past the hiding them part. They said to me they would have to do a cut like a c section which I was dreading to think to have such a big scar but they didn’t in the end which I found out after I would up. Like you said have surgery from stomach area takes a very long time to heal and having to remember especially when your beginning to feel a bit better I can’t lift heavy things for an example. I fully understand the blur part I can’t remember much from having cancer it’s like your brain blocks that part of your life out. Glad your doing well now and I absolutely love your videos take care 💕💕
Thank you so much for sharing your scar story, you are so brave. I can relate to some of it as I had to have an emergency gall bladder removal in the past and now have a long scar across my stomach. I hope you had a fantastic holiday and proudly wore your bikinis. x
Well done Julie, very proud of you, my scar is nothing compared to what you have been through. I have a keloid scar on my shoulder, I feel so conscious, living in a hot country I can’t find many tops that help. Well done Julie xx
Thank you for sharing your story, Julie. Very inspirational and shows that we really should be grateful for all the little things in life. It's amazing how you continue to have such a positive outlook
Amazing and so brave Julie. I have many scars from childhood operations and c-sections. Thank you for sharing such a personal journey and have a wonderful holiday XX
Such an amazing video Julie, talking about what you went through and how you came through it is a true inspiration and definitely feels so nice to get to know a bit more about you. Be proud of that scar and wear that bikini you really do look fabulous xxx
I can totally understand how you feel about your scar now. I had major surgery about 12 years ago as I had a tumour in the centre of my liver which meant a liver resection of 70% and given a 50/50 chance of survival. We are so lucky to have the nhs and the staff in the intensive care are amazing.Ive gone from hating the sight of my scar to embracing it as it is a symbol of how strong you are to get through it. Going through something like that just makes you realise how important it is to share your experience as this will help others. Not everyone understands how much toll this takes on your mental health as well as physical and talking about it is therapy in itself. Thank you for sharing your story and sending you and your lovely family a massive hug.❤
Aw thanks for sharing Julie what an inspirational story about your life and your scar , like you say it’s your mark to show you survived and got your two beautiful children enjoy Ibiza and you rock your 👙 you look fab xx
Thank you for sharing your story. You are amazing and never hide that scar away. I had emergency open heart surgery 10 weeks ago and have a huge scar down my chest now (aged 36) it however saved my life and I am forever grateful that I wear my scar with pride as it tells a story of why I am still here ❤️
Wow Julie, what a horrific ordeal. This is super inspiring and even more so encourages me to take up nursing. Hearing stories of people who have been through such difficulties and then have come out the other side is amazing. Be proud to show off your scar🥳💗
I love how positive you are about your scar! I have two (both on my stomach), one from having my appendix removed from having peritonitis at 6yrs old and the other one is from having a lump removed last year which may have been the cause of me losing my baby.
Thank you to the NHS ❤️ what an incredible story, your scar is a story of how truly brave you were and what could of been. Makes you appreciate life xx
You are one incredible women Julie. No one truly knows what goes on in a persons life and sharing a story like yours is brave. Thank you sharing such a private and personal aspect of your life, this must have been hard to film ❤❤ xx
Wow..bless you. What a story. I also have a huge scar due to abdominal surgery 3 1/2 years ago. I had some bowel removed, a bladder repair, hysterectomy, hernia repair and appendix removal all due to diverticular disease. I'd had so many infections and bouts of diverticulitis that all these organs were fused together and there were many abscesses inside too. I agree the nhs are amazing. I was in theatre 8 hours and owe them my life. Recovery took 7 weeks... it was grim. The scar doesn't bother me at all... like you it's the reason i'm here to tell the tale. Loved this video.Take care Julie. X
Wow! Julie! What a story. You wear that bikini with absolute pride my love. Your such a humble, brave & strong lady & a wonderful mother to Anna & Atticus. I’m a big believer that you never know what anyone else has been through in life or is going through in life so you should always be kind. Thank you for sharing your frightening yet amazing story with us all 💕🙏🏻. The universe really was watching over you through all of that. It new it wasn’t your time to go.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience Julie. I also had 3 operations within a fairly short space of time and it left me feeling so vulnerable. Only people that have lived through the experience can understand how difficult it is. Sending love and hugs ❤️Xx
So great to hear your story, the NHS also saved me 4 years ago, i have roughly the same scar from ovarian cancer, its so easy to be negative in life, anyone reading be positive and be thankful for every morning you wake upx
My goodness Julie your so lucky to be here I know somebody who passed from this happening. Sounds like it was utter hell. Thanks for sharing I had some similar issues after a Gynae operation a few years back but nothing near as bad. Xx
Hi Julie what an inspiration you are to everyone thank goodness you came through all that you brave lady❤ you went on to have your precious son you deserve all the best in life Julie you are a warm wonderful person and we love you xxxx
Thank you for sharing your story Julie! I’ve got scars on my stomach from my kidney transplant I had when I was 12 ( 26 now) and like you this is the first year I’ve felt confident enough to show my scars and wear the bikinis. Very brave yet amazing of you to tell your story on here❤️
Hi julie,,,so glad you are here. It makes me admire you more, I've a mastectomy scar,, had the operation when I was 39 I'm now 67,when I came home I just cried, time healed, thankyou for talking about your experience, xx👍💕💕🌞🌞
Hi Julie. THANKYOU so much for sharing this story. I have suffered with endometriosis since the age of 11 (now 39). I have stage 4, have previously had cin 3. I had raised CA125 (level 48) which thankfully was ok. For the past 18 months I have had a significantly swollen stomach and have now been told from recent bloods that my CA125 level is 90! I have an emergency scan this Thursday and I am very stressed and nervous. So inspiring to hear that you survived all this and whatever happens Thursday I’m glad I saw this video beforehand. Xx
I have 2 scars I had open heart surgery at 11 months old and a pacemaker scare and I’m blessed to have them both as I wouldn’t be here , loverly video x
Million % agree with you about NHS and surgeons. My mum has had the same operation twice. We nearly lost her. Without the nurses and surgeons, she wouldn't be here. We are forever greatful ❤️❤️🙏 hope you are well x
I have a scar across my stomach, non-ovarian/non-cancer related, however, I have always been so scared to wear tops like crop tops/belly tops because of my scar. My scar is what has saved me and is the reason I’m here today, I have a condition called Cystic Fibrosis which remotely effects the lungs and the digestive system. When I was just 3hours old a surgeon had to operate on me as I had a huge chunk of my bowel missing and if it wasn’t for her operating on me as a tiny baby and fixing what bits of my bowel I had left, together, I wouldn’t be here 25 years later🤍 I’m so thankful for the NHS and how much they do for us. She had to go back in 3 weeks later as the work she did, sadly came undone but the work she did on me at three weeks old is the reason I’m here. You’ve shown me Julie that I shouldn’t hide my scar away, it’s a story of why I’m here and I should embrace it just like you❤️ keep being you!
