Hi Barbara
Lovely to meet you

Thank you for advocating for yourself

Elizabeth, thank you for your kind words!
So glad you’re ok @Barbara. I hope you had help going through all of that. It was kind of a miracle that you went to an alternative dr and received the Rx for the colonoscopy when you did. I was wondering what happened with the x- did he help at all or have any regrets or is he a heartless narcissist.
Thanks for telling your story - I can see how Barbara is still trying to entertain people with humor even in the midst of how serious it was.
I hope she is having a happy life and considers a follow up interview if there is more she would like to share now. ❤❤❤

Doctors ignored my sons complaints and symptoms because he was young and appeared healthy.
He passed one day after seeing a doctor who said he didn’t need to go to the hospital. My son had asked him if he should go to the hospital.
Cancer or vaccin reaction.?
Don, so sorry to hear about this. Thank you for sharing.
I’m so very sorry for your loss dear friend
May his Soul Rest In Peace
@@elizabethconroy7665 Thank you.
@@Bambotb It was 5 years ago.. no Vax. .. not sure exactly as the doctor was going to test the following week.. no autopsy..would do no good except for a lawsuit...didn’t want them to do that to his body...he is in Heaven now.
Barbara, you are so very cute, your looks, sure, but I mean your personality. This is not a funny subject, of course, your colon cancer journey----but your presentation makes your story both informative and actually entertaining. You would be a great talk-show host, you should look into it. (That is, if you have time, while you're rearing three children.)
You never said what stage your colon cancer was and if it disappeared forever after surgery?
