Sorry to hear this and the best of luck to you and yours. If you haven't already I'd suggest reading up on using Ivermectin for cancer treatment.

My wife had surgery today she has ovarian cancer surgeon said late stage 2. Said they removed all of it and will need Chemo does she have a good chance beating it? Thanks in advance from anyone that wants to share their opinion. her recovery is in my prayers... hope everything heals quickly and cancer is gone from her body. and peace be with you during this trying time... I think the uncertainty can be harder on the family than the patient.

I would start doing some research and many late night reading hours devoted to white papers, studies, analysis.
That’s what I do
It’s incumbent upon you being the care giver or the patient to be long educated on science, terminology, treatments, pharma, breakthroughs, test cases and more.
Doctors (specialists) only devote a good 3-10 mins with a patient. I have caught them half assing treatment plans, recommended extended treatment options and surveillance. Even caught a near miss on them dosing me with iv contrast. The radiology tech was going to argue with me and I straightened her right the fouck out with a quickness. Ain’t trying to sound mean but people are going to have to turn off the John Wayne and Breitbart and get a hold of the reins. Very good advice here.

The surgical staging of excised malignant masses and the five year survival rates are based on a one to four scale, one being the best, four the worst. Late stage two usual indicates some but minimal local spread but without metastatic spread to other organs, usually requiring some chemo and or radiation. There are the newer immunotherapies, too. Survival rates for Stage one are 90+%, Stage two usually 80-90%. It gets worse very quickly with Stages 3&4. Has she had a PET scan? Results? What exact cancer is stated on the pathology report?
Best Wishes and prayers for your wife. -Mark and Belle Well…. the 5-year survival rates are exactly, and only, that. It’s not a reoccurrence-rate statistic. It comes back much more often than your quoted numbers would suggest. Ovarian is some “spready” stuff…. A person can be on their deathbed at 5 years + one day, from cancer that spread, yet still fit under that cheery 5-year statistic. PM sent, RiverC
The CENTER will hold.

Slummy's right - you and your wife are the senior partners in her treatment, ask a lot of questions and demand truthful answers.
You and she are, and NEED to be, the best patient advocates in the course of treatment. Don't be afraid of asking for a second opinion.
We've been down that road twice with "The Warden" (different cancers).
Once in 2010, and once in 2017. We've kept up with the check-ups, and so far - so good.
Her doctors have actually appreciated our intense involvement in her course of treatment.
Prayers sent for the both of you.
