Doctors Told Model To Abort Her Child After She Lost 95% Of Her Jaw To Cancer. This Is What She Did

ADVERTISEMENT

Pregnancy is often difficult, but pregnancy combined with cancer treatment is devastating. Then-24-year-old Latvian-born Canadian model Elizaveta Bulokhova was faced with this situation in 2014. While vacationing in Amsterdam with her husband, Roman Troubetskoi, what Bulokhova thought was a toothache turned out to be bone cancer. The doctors told her the photo model would need to have an abortion before chemotherapy.

“He was very active and I would talk to him often while he was in my womb,” Bulokhova told Vice of her then-unborn son. “I had to tell my baby boy to stop moving because I couldn’t keep him and then all of a sudden he did. He listened; he stopped moving.” In another interview with Daily Mail, she added, “I just told myself whatever the universe has in store for me I will accept it. If my baby is meant to be born, he will be born.”

Luckily, various delays presented the cancer patient with an unexpected third option: the possibility of a Caesarian section. After consulting with doctors, baby Valentin was safely delivered 10 weeks early. Bulokhova had 95% of her jaw removed, underwent chemotherapy, and is now recovering. The brave cancer survivor recently modeled for a Vice article that told her story. You can support cancer research and prevention through the Canadian Cancer Society.

Model Elizaveta Bulokhova was suddenly diagnosed with jaw cancer when she was 24

The doctors told her that she would need surgery to remove the infected bone

She would also have to undergo chemotherapy

Bulokhova had gotten pregnant with husband Roman Troubetskoi, and the doctors recommended an abortion

“He was very active and I would talk to him often while he was in my womb”

“I had to tell him to stop moving because I couldn’t keep him and then all of a sudden he did. He listened; he stopped moving”

At the last minute, through a miracle, Bulokhova was given the option of having a c-section

Her son Valentin was safely born 10 weeks early

Yolo Bunny, is that a hypothetical question? It's a tough situation to be in, and one I don't feel comfortable casting judgment on because I have thankfully never been in that situation. Neither should you be flinging about such callous comments. Until you walk a mile in someone's shoes.....

My friend had a similar decision to make when she discovered she had cancer, but she was actually just a few weeks shy of giving birth! So they had to make the decision to deliver early (pretty early) or chemo. She delivered early and the baby is healthy and she is now cancer free!

Throughout history, mothers do things against the judgment of others. I am an old man, but I recognize that it is women who carry-along societies to better places. In the US, women will care for future generations with their votes and lives and stop what is going on now.

it doesnt mean she'll pass the cancer. look at how healthy the baby looks and if he did have cancer they'd already know. plus shes not poisining him with radiation because she started chemo AFTER birth and now she has a happy family what is wrong with you .

Wonderful story! Lovely family. So glad you survived the cancer. Even if it comes back, you will have already been BLESSED by God and you KNOW it, so whatever the future holds, you'll deal with it, with God and your loving husband and child now. You know there's another life out there after death, and so does your husband. Remember that. God loves you.

Elizaveta and Roman, I love the fun photo of you both in the car. That foundation can carry you through anything, and it clearly has. Elizaveta, I love how you used your body as a canvas, much as with modeling, but this you did for you, which makes it much more powerful. Wonderful, expressive art. Your scars are beautiful adornments, now, too. I hope you have a long, healthy life full of love and laughter, all of you. Thank you for sharing this very intimate experience with the world.

I'm so glad this has turned out well, I hope she continues recovering and the cancer stays away! But am I the only one wondering about all the other scars? On her arm? Her trachea? Her side? I feel like they didn't tell the whole story!

I think the scars on her side and arm are because they needed to remove tissue to put on her jaw. The skin on her right cheek has a slightly different tone from the rest of her face. The one in her trachea is from the respiratory tube used in the surgery.

I'm so glad this has turned out well, I hope she continues recovering and the cancer stays away! But am I the only one wondering about all the other scars? On her arm? Her trachea? Her side? I feel like they didn't tell the whole story!

I think the scars on her side and arm are because they needed to remove tissue to put on her jaw. The skin on her right cheek has a slightly different tone from the rest of her face. The one in her trachea is from the respiratory tube used in the surgery.

Not to diminish the impact of the story, but I found myself wondering if she is/was a smoker.

this is a new level of selfishness. To risk a little girl having cancer later in life or getting radiation posioning,hen there are still millions of orphans and foster kids that are fine. Shame on her.
