Mad respect to the mum for somehow managing not to cry during the interview. So stoic and strong 💖
Stoic.
@@Toffee146 thank you
Stoic 💪❤
Maybe she not that upset anymore
@@linzieloo1 you clearly don’t understand grief. Especially when it’s a parent grieving. No matter how long it’s been since their baby passed, it will always hurt and it can take years to adjust to life without them. Sure they can adjust, but the pain will never leave them. Whether it’s a year, 20 years, 50 years… they will always be longing for their child to come back.
How brave of her mum to describe her beloved daughter's fight against this terrible disease💔
So sad every time we read the story of this beautiful woman. How could this happen so devastatingly to a healthy brilliant girl ?
Why do decent people get dementia?
Deborah was so beautiful such a fashionista, her style her personality ❤️❤️❤️❤️👌👌👌
Lost my mum to bowel cancer 19 years ago. Deborah’s legacy is amazing and will save lives, as people seek out diagnosis earlier than they might previously have done so. 💔
Say not in grief 'she is no more' but in thankfulness say 'she was'. As long as we live, she too will live; for she is now a part of us. Hebrew Proverb
So very missed, but what a legacy
Thank you Dame Deborah xxx
im sure I wasn't the only one that fell in love with Debra . she was intoxicating , her energy was limitless , she selflessly helped so many , just by being the best part of who she was .
My beautiful 34yr old niece was going through breast cancer at the same time as debs god rest there souls
From one mom (mum) to another, I feel the same pain now. My son is the same age as your daughter. His bone cancer has spread to his lungs. We’re hoping he’ll last until Christmas. Bless you for your story. ❤️
So sad! I was diagnosed with Clear Cell Renal Carcinoma during the height of the pandemic. I had not been feeling well for a while and was having pain and trouble peeing. I went to the hospital repeatedly only to be told ...how would I know if I was sick if I wasn't a Doctor? I said I know my body and there is something wrong, could you please do a CT scan or some kind of test. Nope. Can't you see we are overrun with covid patients and don't have time for hypochondriacs! Finally I went to another hospital and demanded that I see a Doctor and have a scan. I told them I understand that there is a pandemic but I am not leaving until I get some tests ... and I was told they would call the police. I said please do and I will be calling the local news station at the same time. They finally relented and gave me a CT scan and an MRI. I found out I was in the second stage of Renal Cancer and had a 5 inch tumor in my right kidney and needed imediate surgery. Which took another 4 months! I finally had my surgery and a large portion of my right kidney removed. My message is know your body and don't ignore what it is telling you, and most importantly, advocate for yourself because nobody else is going to. So many people fall through the cracks in the health care system needlessly and a lot of people die because they were perceived as being a nuisance or dramatic. Sad but true. My heart goes out to her family ✌❤
Hate how doctors are so arrogant thinking they knew everything yet they can't even diagnosis people properly say there is shit wrong with people they do all these years of training yet they treat people with contempt fxxking idiots
Good for you. X
Well done for taking a stand! I fear it will only get worse. The pandemic was and is an excuse for so many things not being done. Basically we are on our own. To threaten you with police shows how far the 'caring' has diminished.
Thank you so much, you saved my life, I was diagnosed with t4 bowel and had it removed with half my bowel. I had no sign of blood, but there was in the test. Thank you for saving my life.
Michelle mum of four beautiful children ❤️
A true warrior❤
Thank You Dame Deborah for your life and selflessness💜
What an incredible lady. May she rest in peace.
Woman.
Deborah's story always upsets me because it's just so alarming her symptoms. So sad. So full of life. It's hard to believe she is no longer here on our TV with her great personality. Special lady 🙏
My dad’s father died from this (I was too young to remember) and my father had a colonoscopy too but thank god he’s clear. The fear I feel is horrific every time he gets one. I’m so grateful he’s ok. RIP Deborah you were a real fighter
I think I remember her from instagram. She was so brave 💔
No more than anyone else who fights cancer and she loved all the attention
@@linzieloo1 you are watching the story of a young woman who died of it. Have some respect
Such a brave woman. Such a loss.
Oh i cried listening to this 😭
Oh poor you😢
Beautiful and inspiring lady ❤️. Breaks my heart every time I hear about her story 💕. Hope you are flying high angel 💖 xxx
God bless her soul and strength to her family and all affected 😢
So sad for her and her family same cancer that robbed me of my dad
BACK AGAIN BECAUSE D💕 I KNOW YOUR RESTING IN PEACE WITH MY MAMA 😇😘💕🙌🏼🙏🏽
Naww so sorry to hear 😢 💔 🥀 she is free now and safe 🙏. I found blood in my poo often, doctors and hospitals won't do anything, luckily it's cleared, but it will be back no doubt, next week or few weeks or next week, one time was bleeding for bout 2-3weeks everyday, that was 6-8yrs ago. Feel sorry in a way for hospitals and doctors, nurses, they can only do so much but sometimes even just a simple diagnosis is impossible to get for some of us. Takes years
She is a Hero!
Don’t talk 💩
Deborah, you were an amazing person with a beautiful soul. Who was sadly taken from this life too soon? Thank you for all that you were plus more and shedding light on the cancer that we fight continuously. You're just an awesome person all around, and I pray that in the next life that you are healthy, joyful, and full of life as you were in this life. May you rest peacefully in the arms of the Almighty father and his incredible angels. You were a brave and empowering woman, and to those who were lucky enough to have known you, you brought an incredible light into everyone's life. Rest in peace, sweetheart. ❤
I am so so sorry for your loss she was such a inspiration to so many of us . May God give each of you peace and love and continue to gelp others with what they may go thru .
Where was 'God' when she got cancer? Hmmm? Answer that. 🙄
I’m hoping I’m going to be the one in two asap
deborah is such an amazing lady and didn’t let cancer get her down 💖 may her soul fly high 🕊️
....woman.

Awful people who suffer dementia actually it’s worse than cancer in many ways.
god bless her soul
So sad. She was a lovely girl. It's not fair. 😓😓
....woman...
Have you just realised this that life ain’t fair
@@linzieloo1It’s a statement they expressed, it doesn’t mean they haven’t realized that fact earlier.
God bless her mother. RIP 😇
Did her mother die too
💓😔
What a wonderful mother, so sorry this happened. I realise this had to be kept short but if anyone doesn't know, Deborah was not diagnosed quickly. Hence the importance of her campaigning work.
#cry😔😔😔
💩
😢😢😢 So very sad.
Beautiful, beautiful lady.
She was such a beautiful woman
Deborah was the life and soul of the soul of life itself. 💚
What an amazing woman with a heart so pure , it makes mine burst !
We will never forget you Debbie .
So long as you are remembered , you will always be around us all....
You never truely left us .
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Oh so sad 😭😭
I’m not proud that she sold out to Rubert Murdoch. I hate England.
This makes no sense, why England? You know Rupert Murdoch is Australian-American and owns the Fox Corporation, The Wall St Journal and other American news companies, it's not just the English who buy his papers, sadly. That aside, is it appropriate for you to be calling her a sell-out in these comments, where's your compassion? It's a woman talking about her dead daughter, kinda harsh to be bad mouthing her.
Like it or not, The Sun is one of the most popular newspapers in the UK.Having this platform, meant that Deborah could reach as wide an audience as possible with her awareness raising activities - highlighting early signs of cancer, which almost certainly saved lives. She was offered the opportunity to use the publication for something good and she did. She achieved great things and her impact is being felt even though she is no longer here.
She loved being in the sun newspaper and all the attention she got. She would have gained personal financially through it all. All I can see did was make people more aware about if they have blood in their shit💩
Such an inspiration 🌹
An amazing woman, who was so selfless. Her story touched my heart, especially since I had followed it not long after my dad's death from complications from bowel cancer in March 2022. Whilst not a terminal diagnosis, unlike Deborah's, it made her story that little more personal to me. I hope her family can find comfort from Deborah's strength and her eagerness to push boundries and how she is still giving people tye courage to talk about their poo. Rest in paradise, Deborah. 🤍
Shit happens ray of light.
