Jenna, from Finland, immediately began a course of cytostatic treatment to tackle the cancer and also had an operation that involved removing the tumour and one of her ovaries.
Jenna, who has worked as a kitchen assistant in a nursing home for almost four years, is particularly keen to hopefully return to work at the end of February after having been off for six months.
Jenna said: “The ultrasound showed that there was a tumour in my ovary that had caused a cyst.
Jenna Sirkiä had noticed that her stomach appeared a bit more swollen than normal but just assumed the change in her body was down to her diet.
Doctors also took a scan of her lungs, which revealed another tumour and she is set to have surgery to remove the mass.
