Hi my loving Tiffanythinks Family. I had a really rough time processing info from the doctor. I have to trust God and just believe that at the end, everything will make sense. Thank you for always listening and being there for me. I wish I could give you all a cuddle. If you haven’t joined my Tiffanythinks Family, please subscribe. Instagram & FB: tiffanythinks, I have been updating on my instagram & FB every single day. Lots & lots of love, WE GOT THIS💙
I'm so sorry you had to be told all that major info to your face without any prep. Sadly some surgeons don't really have the aptitude to part with info holistically or delicately. I wonder whether he wasn't aware of what the consultation was about. It did appear to come off as a pre-op meeting but without follow-up scans? He was either not well prepared for the meeting or new and had a training that called for vomiting everything out. Usually, we assess what the patient knows then what they want to know, and then part with the details, etc so that something exactly like this doesn't happen. If he knew how you were feeling, I am sure he would be pretty upset with himself. Also, you must a what you want to know or ask for his number or a follow-up appt to discuss after you have digested it all. You ould call the dept and talk to somebody else and let them know you have been left feeling more unsure -they will definitely give you another appt. For now, you are right in letting yourself go through healthily with all the emotions you will feel better tomorrow, even better fingers crossed when the scan results indicate it's shrunk to an operable size. IF it hasn't treatment with chemo and radiation or just chemo alone will probably continue. But your grading has a significantly decent prognosis, especially with surgery. Good luck-you got this.
Hi Tiffany, I have been watching your videos for a long time. I am sure after your scans things will look better. You will get through this. We are going to keep you in our prayers. You've Got this! 💙 Sincerely, Lisa D.
As a P.A (medical professional) and a cancer survivor, I give you a tip! Whenever you go for these out of the ordinary check-ups (as you had those hives) you are likely to encounter doctors who are not at all familiar with your case! And unfortunately no matter how nice they appear, they give you their opinion whether you like it or not! Clearly he wasn't your oncologist. Matter of fact, he should have asked you, what you came in for!!So next time, tell him/her (female doctors can be as insensitive) what you are there for and that your prognosis, treatment planning are off limits for them, as you want to discuss these things exclusively with your oncologist and with him/her only! Don't allow them to step all over you. When in med school, I noticed that the subject of bedside-manners, patient/family sensitivity toward patients & loved Ones was highly underrepresented (too few hours allocated to this important subject)! By being friendly but firm in your expression of aforementioned is part of your patients rights and you need to learn to advocate for yourself and necessary throughout your treatment journey. Trust me, getting used to gently putting your foot down when needed, you'll be a lot happier. Do not allow them to get you all worried! (for if something would ever be off concerning your cancer, these hospital doctors, would HAVE to be immediately discussed with your oncologist by the on-duty doctor calling him/her) You will get this, no doubt in my mind...I am praying for you and your sweet Amma!
My uncle Barry was diagnosed with prostrate cancer he was told he had six months, he pack in his job in and booked his holiday to Jamaica. Its now twenty five years since and his still here with us enjoying his life. Never give up you got got this 💜💕💟💜💕💟💜💕💟
I’m a 21 year survivor of colon cancer. My tumor broke through the colon wall and they thought my bladder was included, but as they did my surgery and checked my nodes, I was okay. It turned out that I was full of infection from my body waste going through my body. I’m a very active and an old lady now😂. I’m praying for you and just fight to stay positive. God be with you 👵🏻. Diann
Hi Tiffany, Will be praying for you- My mom had a dx of non-hodgkins lymphoma- stage 4- The doctors gave her the standard 6 months to live- told her to go home spend time with her family- she chose to fight and that was 30 years ago!!!! We Got This!!!💙💙💙💙
Wow my dad had the same and was given 2 months to live without treatment or 2 years with and that was 5 and a half years ago now! So glad to hear your mum is well now 🤗💙
As a Mom, my heart breaks for Amma seeing you go through this. She loves you so much!Praying for you sweet girl and your entire family!🙏🏼💗 WE GOT THIS💙
I remember going in to see a doctor when my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. He told her that it had spread, and things did not look good. Well that was over 20 years ago and she is doing really well still. Try and keep positive as God is in command of this. You have youth and strength on your side. You got this one Tiffany. 💙💙💙
Praying for you, Tiffany. 🙏 I've had bladder cancer twice in a year. It's the recurring kind. I've lived my life, have raised 3 great kids, my husband of 31 years just died, and if I could give you the life I have left so that you could live, I would in a heartbeat. I look forward to seeing all my loved ones again and I'm not afraid. God is waiting for me. I know God is working for your good. He always is, even when we don't understand. God bless you, Tiffany. ✝️
@@delphinium5555 Thank you much. I believe God hears our prayers and only wants the best for us in this life. I'm learning to be at peace and my faith and belief in God is my greatest comfort until He calls me home. God bless you, too. ✝️
@@julesoxana3630 Thank you! I'm doing okay at the moment and thanking God for His goodness. 💙 I'm finding some peace in my life and it comes from acceptance of what is, and realizing that God is in control. His will be done. Blessings to you! ✝️
@@starlight954h Thank you very much, Collette. ❤ There is a Christian song called "Heaven Just Got Sweeter For You" and the words are so uplifting and full of the belief that I WILL see my husband and other loved ones again, who are waiting in Heaven for me to join them. The meaning of the song is that Heaven is now even sweeter to anticipate because my husband is there waiting for me. I hold on to that thought and I feel a sense of peace. God bless! ✝️
Come on Sweetie...let's have the scans before making any decisions. I am a retired oncologist and there are always different opinions. Let's look at the evidence before worrying too much...you are doing so well right now and keeping positive is soooooo important. You have this Sweetie and we will do everything we can to support you. xxxxxxxxx
I'm so so glad you left her this comment. The doctor didnt need to say that to her before having all the info I think. .her staying positive helps her heal..
My tumour was 7.5cm to begin with - and it was T3b I don’t even know what that means but after chemo and radiation it was completely gone - they did surgery anyway and I lost a breast but I didn’t care - the cancer was completely gone and that was 14-yrs ago love ❤️ you Tiffany 😘 xoxo
I really hate this for you Tiffany , it’s breaking my heart. The pain on your moms face and the fear in your eyes is crushing. I’m praying for positive scans this week !! We’ve got this ❤️
I’m a mother of two and this is my worst nightmare. Also as a funeral home worker I’ve seen to many parents bury their child. It’s not something any parent should ever endure
I totally agree with you, her (Mom’s) pain, fear, helplessness is all over her face. Trying to be strong for her baby, who in turn, is trying to be strong and upbeat for her… it is too sad. God please grant this family a miracle of complete and speedy healing, the type of healing that only comes from you. Please give her the healing in this lifetime. There are many following her, who need you to move in her life, so that they may believe that You will move in theirs too. Lord Jesus heal her. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour Amen 💕💕
Hi Tiffany I just wanted to jump on and share something with you. 5 years ago my mum was diagnosed with rectal cancer. The tumor was so big that they could even perform a colonoscopy. She was very anemic at this point as well. She had chemo through a port in her arm that was attached to a bottle as well as radiation. During this time her bowel blocked so she had to have a stoma. Whilst she was going through chemo and radiation she would have to change her bag a few times a day which took some getting use to. She had great results in the radiation shrinking the tumor and they performed surgery. They didn’t know if the bag would end up being permanent but she got thru surgery and they removed the cancer. She had a stoma for a month or so until she had healed a little bit then they got rid of it. She is super healthy now and it’s all behind her. She lived with me at the time and it was pretty rough but like you she was pretty positive. I wanted to let you know a positive story from someone else who had a very large tumor. If they can’t operate now it will just be a little delayed but you will have surgery and be cancer free I’m sure. Sending love from Australia. (Off for colonoscopy next week to check I’m ok because of mums history) I’m a little overdue but 🤞 it will be ok. Nikki xx
Remember the doctor told you the cancer had spread to your lung and IT HADN'T!! They made a mistake. I'm sorry he scared you, but he doesn't even know. Lifting you in prayer, as always.
your sweet mom looks so devastated , that doctor needs a swift kick in the backside for worrying you guys before you've even had your scans , from one mom of a sick child to another my heart and prayers go out to you all xx 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Your ABSOLUTELY right, ill HOLD the doctor down as YOU give him a Swift KICK in the backside... then you HOLD him LOLand I give him another BIG Swift kick. Sweet Tiffany does NOT need ANY added STRESS, Doctor sometimes really have a shzt,ty manor. It's disabling on cancer patients already feeling broken and then to get NEWS to worry ourselves, iits just horrible! I want to give her and her mom a BIG positive hugs, I too, am struggling with cancer~ stage 4 cancer, and i feel so much for her.knowing how scary the unknown can be, At times EVERYthing Doctors , nurses tell me I find myself dwelling dwelling thinking uncontrollable, unable to turn my thoughts OFF, This video brought tears to my eyes, seeing how she kept repeating the fear! YOU GOT THIS TIFFANY, WE GOT THIS TIFFANY. WE all adore you and lovely mom and Matt! ♡♡♡ Love and light♡ Take care Mary
@@giovannimaisano9194 Dear Mary I will keep you in my prayers my friend may God wrap his loving arms around you and calm your pain and fears. Stay strong ! Take care, Valerie
Wait until you have the scans and then new results. It’s not helpful to see a different doctor because they don’t always know the latest. Try not to over think it and wait for the appointment under the scans. Sending love and prayers.
The lump in my breast went from the size of an egg to an almond after chemo. I could feel it going down in size. I had a double mastectomy to get the cancer out of my body (the almond). Chemo does work to reduce the size of the tumors. There is ALWAYS hope, Tiffany. I had 15 months of cancer treatment and I am on the other side. You will be too shortly and you can get on with your life. Your attitude is great and is everything in this journey.
Can't believe this Doctor mentioned your tumour, before the results of the Scan. I truly believe, things will be fine. I have this feeling Tiffany. WE HAVE GOT THIS. ❤
Guys, for everyone saying the dr 'shouldn't have said anything and how could he know before the scan', yes it's possible. Maybe her Dr could feel it and guesstimate the size and with her case history was able to comment on the size and degree of shrinkage. We don't know. My oncologist guessed the size of my cervical cancer even before the PET scan. After I had a hysterectomy and a tumor later grew back, I could feel it with my fingers by copying what the oncologist did in the pelvic exam and I still check myself a few times a week and if I felt something, I'll call them asap. And when another tumor grew back on my abdominal wall after seeding on the incision site of the prior surgery, my oncologist showed me how to feel it with my fingers. This helped me track it as I went thru 6 cycles of chemo. After 3 cycles, I couldn't find it by hand anymore and the PET later showed it was gone. So yeah, I don't find it surprising or inappropriate for the Dr. to have given her his opinion even before the scan.
I totally agree with you, though we seem to be in the minority here! Good doctors still do hands-on exams, and that should never be underestimated. In fact, I did have the same thoughts you did--that he most likely felt the tumor during the exam, and refrained from telling her definitely that she would have surgery. He is obliged to tell her his medical opinion, especially if he had ended up examining her internally based on a comment she may have made about the surgery. Perhaps he would have done it anyway--who knows. He may be even part of the team, which may be discussing difficult issues among several specialists.
That doctor needs to be more aware of the impact of his words especially as he has not been part of your journey so far. Distressed to see you distressed. But YOU ARE RIGHT - it is far too soon for him to have said that. You got this girl! x
Dear Tiffany, some Drs are so full of themselves. My first oncologist challenged me if I had cancer or not. I told my radiotherapy Dr and he had me fire him. As long as you advocate for yourself and remind Drs to update your entire team you can be a little less frightened. Tell all of your team what he said and I am sure what he said was premature. That conversation was what my surgeon had with me. It's standard practice for pre op appt. I was even told depending on cancer removal and margins that my ileostomy could be reversed. ( it was ). Unless you have had to fight for your life like we have .....no one can understand what our emotions do to us. I can't say don't worry because you can't help it. Your in survival mode. Let your friends and loved ones help carry the burden with you. We are hear to listen and pray for you, and offer some encouraging words.
I’ve had cancer twice (two different types over 20 years apart).. What you are going through is terrifying, but you will get through it. Love from Scotland ❤
Ah Tiffany I can absolutely imagine how you feel. He should have not said anything. If you haven’t had scans since radiotherapy then it is impossible to know how big the tumour is now, just keep that in mind. Radiotherapy will have done it’s job and you will get the surgery you need. Try to stay positive lovely xx
YES he should not.. some doctors 😬 ! on a different scale, but still stressful, a doctor at the emergency unit told me, my abscess would likely be too big to get an effect from the antibiotics, I was on, and that I should count on surgery within 48 hours or would be fatal.. well, he was wrong!
It seems really unfair for a new Dr to waltz in and talk to you about the surgery when you were not there for that reason AND they don't have any updated scans! They have gone ahead and upset you, and put your emotions through the ringer for absolutely no reason. You know what you have, and are fighting it the best way you know how with their help. Makes no sense to say things like this to you! How frustrating 💜 I have dealt with York and Leeds hospitals in the last few months, for ovarian cancer, and there has been so many instances just like this, in my journey. Keep your head up. You've got this! ❤️
Honestly Tiffany, I’m a nurse I’m used to working with doctors and surgeons all day every day, I think some of them do like to give a bit of a worst case scenario JUST in case it was to happen to prepare you, some of them just aren’t generally positive people either. I think you’ll be absolutely fine after your scans and get a great result 😃 radiation and chemo are so powerful and fab at shrinking tumours I think you’ll have no problem getting your surgery!
@@ourcorrectopinions6824 when have I condemned the doctor I just stated some of them do not like to generally be as positive and that yes this can be due to preparing people for worst case scenario. I have worked with multi surgeons and doctors across the uk for 10 years I know some of them can be exactly like this so please don’t be telling me I don’t know what I’m talking about or that I’m clearly not a health profession 👍🏻 … I’m also trying to be positive for Tiffany 😃 you sound like quite a rude aggressive person so maybe you should focus on bettering yourself rather than being a social media troll 👌
I was shocked the Dr offered this type of opinion without the scans first. Positivity is so important and comments like that do not help. Much love to you and your wonderful family xx
@@nathalieloujein5959 of course and we all have the right to our opinion. As long as Tiff feels supported and keeps as positive as possible. That’s what will help get her through whatever she may face. I am humbled by her bravery. Sending her loads of positive thoughts xxx
@@nathalieloujein5959 I really think it is incredibly insensitive of you to offer this reply several times to comments made by subscribers. Tiffany has said previously that she keeps away from googling her condition, yet you insist on posting a very negative opinion when you have no idea what is going on & Tiffany hasn't had her follow up scans yet.
@@MeganG25 well said Megan , I’ve already said the Same and have had a scathing reply to which I have no comment as dr N is selling her complete set of Encyclopaedia’s as she knows everything!!!
@@MeganG25 exactly what I have just txted.Shes worse than that insensitive consultant.How date she ????? Tiffany is waiting to hear at least some good news after all she’s been through.Honestly this Nathalie just a know all.How dare she , her txts should be taken down.Tiffany going through enough without reading this.🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙💙🌹
Dearest Tiffany, thank you for sharing your heart with all of us. Sometimes doctors put their foot in their mouths and say things they shouldn’t. I am a cancer survivor and I have had doctors such as this. Remember, this wasn’t your regular doc so he likely doesn’t even know all about your journey. You are being lifted up with many prayers from Saskatchewan, Canada💜
Hold tight and don’t panic just yet, there are no new scans so he’s going off old information. I think it was a bit cruel of him to make that pronouncement without up to date information. Good luck, I’m saying prayers for you. 🥰🥰🥰
Yes, your right. Why mention it, when they haven't got the Scan Results. He has made her worry unnecessary. I believe in my heart, this Tumour has shrunk. She has got this.
Gods got this🙏🏼 you have so many people praying for you, lifting you and your (Mom) up for peace and comfort while you wait for the scans. We all Love You so much… Oh! Matt as well❤️
Hi Tiffany, I recently completed almost one year of cancer treatment and have followed most of your journey. I don't usually comment but felt that I had to in this instance. This new doctor obviously didn't even take a good look at your chart as he didn't know whether you or your mom were his patient. He was at best ... careless ... but in my opinion he was cruel to give you this news prior to having the new scans done. Not all oncologists are compassionate and the journey can be even more stressful with visits like this one.
I hope you can have your scan soon so you know more rather than worrying after what that doctor said. You are in our hearts Tiffany, we all got this. 💙💙
You are on the right track Tiffany. My brother is going through this right now at 25 years old and I am tired of doctors talking this way without any scans or results being done. Don't let hypothetical situations get to you right now. Continue to stay positive. You're right all you can do is wait and pray for the best outcome! Lots of love ❤️ from Canada
@@mimi7914 he has kidney cancer. Originally they said stage 4 spread to his spine before biopsy only based on imaging. Did biopsy of bone and now they're not sure they say it might be a bone disease and unrelated. He's having surgery in a couple weeks yo remove part of his kidney stage 1..hopefully
Tiffany. I can’t imagine how hard this is. Look for the good things that are good and leave the bad behind. Jesus I trust in you! Divine Mercy Tiffany. Stay strong! We all love you!🌷🙏🏼❤️
Tiffany, the hardest time is always the “not knowing “ time. Once you have a plan, you feel as if you have some control in the situation. This is my 1st time watching you and you grabbed my heart from the beginning. I’ve been dealing with health problems for 42 years. So stay strong, stay around people, and stay in touch with God. This too shall pass. From NJ, USA. ❤️🌹
Tiffany, take one day at a time. Don’t focus on the “what if’s “ because you are cheating yourself of all the blessings that surround you. Praying for you to heal and be strong. So much love being sent your way by so many!
Hi Tiffany (I’m from Belfast N.Ireland) I had colorectal cancer had chemo and radiation treatment last November to shrink the tumour which had broke into the walls and spread to 4 lymph nodes and it worked I had my surgery in January and the surgeon got it all away with a clear margin throughout the whole process I only dealt with my surgeon and my oncologist unfortunately when another doctor gets involved they can confuse the situation as they are not in charge of your treatment or in on the meetings your team would be having so please stay positive and hold on to our Lord stay focused on what your surgeon and oncologist said and that is the next step is your surgery they know your complete history it will happen xx
I’m so sorry to see you crying. I know from experience that the hardest part of cancer is knowing that you have it because there is nothing that you can do. Just follow what the doctor tells you to do and try to stay positive. Always talk about your concerns with someone. I have friend from when we were in our 20’s and 30’s. We have gotten each other through the good time and bad. We can talk to each other about anything and everything. When I did that it elevated some of the stress. You are always in my thoughts and prayers.
Call him asap and ask for an explanation why he would, without a recent scan in front of him, discuss the worst case scenario. Also, you know you’re mom better than any of us of course - remember though… you keeping things from your closest support people probably causes internal/negative stress for you which MUST be avoided at all costs, where it’s in your control. 💗
I totally agree .I was told without a results from biopsy that i have cancer .I haven't but in results of what this Doctor said to me untill now i suffer with health anxiety. I regret i haven't complained at that time .You should said something to him ,its really bad what he has done ...
Tiff, the odds are the tumor has shrunk substantially from chemo and radiation. Don’t spend too much time worrying about what might not even come to pass. Praying for you all
Sweet Tiffany. I live in Texas and have been following your journey for a few months. You are such a dear person, and I often think of you and your family. I am praying for your complete healing. I am so sorry the doctor said that to you. He had no idea how that would make you worry. I pray you are in perfect peace knowing that God wants you completely well.
First of all Tiffany I want you to know that you are in my prayers. I say this with experience make another appointment to go over what was said to you and when the next series of tests might start. I am a cancer survivor of three different types and my experience is keep your brain free of anything that might have an answer so that you can somewhat relax and pray for things we cannot control. God bless you and give you peace of mind and take away your pain and illness.
I will be praying for you Tiffany. You are family.. I will pray and think of you smiling and cancer free. Someone special to me said healing is not always linear, it's not always conventional.., yet your bright light is shinning! I believe in you! I believe in your healing! Fellow cancer thriver you got this!! Praying for you always!! Much love
As a Mom I would be so sad if my daughter didnt share EVERYTHING about the cancer. If you are all over the place with worry or confusion, your Mom is going through the same thing. She needs to know.
Evening Tiffany - my heart goes out to you. I can understand how frightened and fearful you must be after your appointment with the Doctor and like so many of your You Tube family have said, once you have the results from the scans you can make a plan. Doctors do often give worse case scenarios but there are a whole team of experts reviewing, discussing and agreeing your treatment, not just one. I’m glad you’re using this platform to offload and air your fears - my Mum always said, “better out than in”. Sending positive love and thoughts. Big hug 💕xxx
Hi Tiffany, I’m so sorry about the news from the doctor. I just want you to know that my dad had lung cancer and went through chemo and radiation and when he went for the surgery the surgeon opened up and then closed right away because the tumor was attached to to many things and I would’ve been too risky. With all that being said, the radiation ended up killing all the cancer and now it’s been three years and all he has is some left over scar tissue but no cancer. So, don’t be afraid because radiation is so strong and you don’t always need the surgery for a positive outcome. Stay strong, we got this. Sending loads of prayers your way.
Dear Tiffany. This doctor shouldn’t have said anything until you had some more scans. It’s really unfair to put so many doubts and worry in your mind at this stage after everything you’ve been through. Not great bedside manner in my opinion. Difficult as it is take all our prayers and positive thoughts to get you through the next few days. You’ve got this 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Common amongst doctors to disregard normal natural compassion and caring, almost as if they revel in a patients distress, ugh what a complete fool. Nurses on the front line are way more heart filled generally, know how to communicate without filling a patient with unnecessary fear. So sorry you had to listen to him, silly man!
Agreed terrible thing to say or suggest ,wait until the scans are done then talk about reality and how to move forward, doctors don’t always know best, he has her file and was expecting her yet didn’t know how old she was and assuming her mum was the patient
I think of you so much. You are someone that helps me process what's happening in my family. Your genuineness is so inspiring, and I thank you so much for sharing this journey with us. I know that using this as an outlet helps you process as well. You are smart, dedicated, loving, and just so special.
Praying for positive scans Tiffany. You are such a lovely person inside and out and I just have to believe that you are going to get good news this week. This TH-cam family of yours is growing and we all are collectively sending you much love and prayers! We are all here cheering you on Tiffany! Stay strong! “You’ve” got this! 💕
I don't know why people in the comments are saying that the doctor was wrong for saying those things to you because he wasn't. It's their job. They have to inform patients of every possible outcome. It would be really unfair to have people believe that treatment automatically means recovery, because it doesn't. Although it's important to be positive, it's also important to be realistic. Expect the worst and hope for the best ♡
Sorry you had to deal with this insensitive doctor at a place that didn't know whether you or your mom was the patient. I am glad that you have such loving and supportive family, friends and partner Tiffany. Praying for you.🙏💙
Dearest Tiff please try not to worry too much as you need to conserve your energy for your surgery. Having a different doctor that doesn't even know you and obviously doesn't know what size your tumour is, he shouldn't have been saying anything to worry you unnecessarily. This really is not good practice on his behalf. I will and I know lots of us will be praying for you that everything has shrunk enough for surgery with a positive outcome. Bless you little bird and keep smiling.💚💛♥️💜
I saw one doctor who told me a worst case scenario and got myself and family all upset weeks that did not treat me regularly, then we went to the oncologist who was familiar with my case and well, here I am 2022 .... That was 2016. Wait and speak to the doctors who know you, and after scans. There are crap doctors. I too remove my shoes in the car Tiff. Much love to you. 💕💙
Honestly just watching your videos really gives me energy. I love how you have such a positive attitude and how incredibly you are handling things. Stay strong xx you've got this
We love you so much, Tiffany and I truly hate this for you and am keeping you in my prayers. I had to have minor surgery to have mole removed yesterday that my doctor was concerned about the look of. I’ve been really worried and anxious and won’t get results for 6-8 weeks which will tell me if it’s cancerous or not. It’s been a hard month and I don’t know what the future will hold for me. I’m only 29 and getting married in 2 weeks. But when I’ve found myself getting carried away with “what ifs”, I’ve just thought “if Tiffany can do this, you can too!” - you’ve truly been my inspiration to be strong and you’ve really helped me. I’m hoping the mole is nothing sinister but either way, I know you’ll continue to be an inspiration to me. Sending so much love xx
Hello Lina, from California. My 23 yr old niece,had a suspicious mole on her thigh removed & it was melanoma stage 2. So young..we were devastated. She had it removed last month & they got all the cancer out. So important to get everything checked out right away. Prayers 💙
Heart goes out to you, TIffany! You are doing wonderfully well. Supporting you all the way. You are loved and have a great support system around you - keep going!
Hi tiff - don’t you get upset now! You are a strong lady - just wait for the scans - I am hopeful 🤞🙏🏼 and you are going to be okay - one day at a time - this dr was very wrong to discuss this without the latest scans - deep breath - you got this girl 🤪💜💜💜
Honestly I just wanted to let you know, don't give up,you're a very strong and smart young lady,I just had surgery after chemo,and my urologist tells me he thinks he got all the cancer, there has been times I had my doubts but Gods been with me the hole time,and he's with you.My prayers are with you and your beautiful family. From Maryland
Tiffany,hang on in there .Lots of people praying, including myself.And like you say, you've not had post radiotherapy scan yet.Sending you love and prayers xxx
Dear Tiff, I wish I had your ability to let things go and accept the reality you've been dealt with. Also, I agree with you that he's going through the worst case scenario and going off the previous scans. Let's hope the radiotherapy WITH chemotherapy shrunk the tumor enough to have the surgery done.
Hello Tiffany, I have been subscribed for awhile and praying for your journey. I am a stage four cancer warrior and even tho we have a different cancer and are at different points in our journeys, my eyes still swell with tears when I hear you speak. I've been there done that should be on my merch. Haha. It's a rollercoaster isn't it, one you can't jump off of. You are strong and yet sweet. We Got This is the perfect words for your merch, just remember to always keep God in the "WE" and you will always be okay no matter what happens!
I am so so sorry that the doctor jumped to a conclusion That was not necessary especially since you have not even have had your scans. Your poor Mom looked so sad at the doctors appointment, it was a blessing to see her happy and smiling at your Auntie’ s house. Prayers for you and your family and Matt that the Lord will make you well and whole again very soon. 🙏🙏🙏🥰
Hi Tiffany, WE GOT THIS! I'm praying 🙏 for you that you will be able to have Surgery and get the tumor out. I'm sorry the doctor said that to you... It's horrible communication...especially when you are fighting for your life. Stay strong beautiful Tiffany ...
Tiff sending positive vibes and prayers your way. The doctor really should’ve waited to get the results so he could give you facts. We love you very much and know that many people are sending you healing thoughts and prayers. You are a strong soul and your videos are real. Thank you for sharing such private things. We got this!
Bless you Tiffany.. it’s very hard but you have every single person praying for you and your family. YOU are the amazing person and you will get through this. ❤️
I think what you were confusing is "T" and "stage". T is just a part of the staging (usually the TNM system, meaning Tumor, Nodes (lymph nodes) and Metastasis), so a T4 does NOT mean stage 4 cancer. It can be stage 3 as well ( which it is in your case, as I understand). The "T" only described the SIZE of the primary tutor ( = tumor in the colon/rectum in your case) and the extent of local spread/invasion. So T4b means that the tumor directly invades or is adherent to other organs or structures (in your case to the uterus, if I understand it correctly). I hope this eases your fears a bit regarding distant metastasis/spread (=stage).
Many prayers for you Tiffany and for all those suffering with cancer. You are such a bright young lady and yes, you are right God is in control. Wishing for news that will ease the pain and ease your life. Stay beautiful and positive as you always are.
Tiffany I am sorry you have to go through this cancer. I do think you are an angel and God sent. I will pray for you to be healed. Your mom is your best friend and your boyfriend is very helpful too. God bless you dear.
Tiffany, I’m so sorry the doctor told you that without scans. That seems a bit unprofessional. Sending your prayers and positive thoughts. 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️
Sending love and prayers! You’re right in that doctors always give you the worst case scenario. Let’s have faith that this too shall pass. As you know, science now is so advanced, there’s always a solution for everything. You got this!!!
Sweet girl... be encouraged ! My husband had large colon tumor that was not so hopeful .. he went through radiation (us term) and chemo ... hoping it had shrunk enough for surgical removal , it had completely disappeared. He still had surgery to remove the section of his colon (right at rectum ) . That was 8 years ago and has been healthy as a horse ! Hang in there .. much love to you and your family .
My dear Tiffany, you weren’t prepared for or even expected to be discussing surgery @ that visit. Your response is more than appropriate & certainly understandable. Please take heart that you’re doing everything to regain your good health, & that journey continues. Do not give up! When the negative thoughts come & they will, work around & through them! Deal with what’s right in front of you & that includes living & enjoying your beautiful family & friends. Continue to move forward…we got this Tiff!!!
I am so sorry that you or anyone has to go through these terribly difficult moments. I think the Doctor wanted to keep your expectations very real. Imagine not saying that after expecting surgery and then they told you after the fact? Doctors don’t always think about the mental weight on patients as much when all you want to is to maintain a positive attitude! Always remember YOU GOT THIS ….. WE GOT THIS 💙💙💙💙
You are so strong and I know for sure you, your family and online family have the strongest faith that you are getting healthier one day at a time. Some days you have those ups and downs but we know for sure you will look back at these times proving that you did it and got through ♥️
You are going to be okay and well for many years to come. Some doctors are not very sensitive like others. I'm so sorry you got this visit with this person. You are very strong and loved. God will keep you with us and your family and your wonderful MATT for us to teach us how NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER GIVE IN !! YOU GOT THIS!!💕
For dry spots, you can try to use Aquaphor, healing ointment mixed with a pure vitamin E. It works wonders for me. Sending you and your beautiful family a lot of blessing.
Bless you dear Tiffany. What a shock that doctor left you with. Remember everyone who has had cancer, me included, have had some very, very difficult times. Let’s wait till scan results are back and then you will know the prognosis. Embrace the love around you and let it help you through these difficult days. Xx
Dear Tiffany, Until you see the surgeon it’s no one else’s call. At this point you are doing all you can. Waiting for the results is difficult. Not knowing is awful. Radiation treatment is not the joy ride radiologists pretend it is. I always thought the best medicine had the worst taste or side effects in this case. If nothing else right now, you can say “No, the cancer continues shrinking out of existence.” Use it as something else to focus on. A mantra if you will. I love watching you and your wonderful family. You’ve got this!! 💜💙💚🙏🏼💚💙💜
You are such a sweet and gentle soul. Worrying about your family more than yourself. I know it is impossible not to worry about what the doctor told you. God is watching over you and guiding your doctors. Sending more prayers for your recovery.
You are so right TiffanyThere is a lot of people that don’t want to know everything,When my sister was going through this 15/16 years ago she didn’t want to know everything so when she went in she just made it short sweet and got out of there but she fought through it very positive and she’s here today cancer free thank God you can do it just be strong
I am an RN of 40 years, hospice nurse of 14 years and the Dr. Spoke prematurely without evidence of current scans post chemo and radiation. Shame on him-!! This Dr. Seriously needs to check himself in his delivery in messaging. I would fire this Dr. as this Dr. Is lacking compassion, playing God and lacks empathy. There is ALWAYS HOPE Tiffany..... hang onto that hope and find a Dr. that is compassionate and knows how to deliver the message.... Positive or negative.... based on scans and scientific evidence that is current. Shame on him ....shame....shame....shame!
I will pray for you and so sorry you are going through so much and you are so young. I know a lot of people are praying and rooting for you 🙏🙏🙏 (Marie)
Hi my loving Tiffanythinks Family. I had a really rough time processing info from the doctor. I have to trust God and just believe that at the end, everything will make sense. Thank you for always listening and being there for me. I wish I could give you all a cuddle. If you haven’t joined my Tiffanythinks Family, please subscribe. Instagram & FB: tiffanythinks, I have been updating on my instagram & FB every single day. Lots & lots of love, WE GOT THIS💙

I'm so sorry you had to be told all that major info to your face without any prep. Sadly some surgeons don't really have the aptitude to part with info holistically or delicately. I wonder whether he wasn't aware of what the consultation was about. It did appear to come off as a pre-op meeting but without follow-up scans? He was either not well prepared for the meeting or new and had a training that called for vomiting everything out. Usually, we assess what the patient knows then what they want to know, and then part with the details, etc so that something exactly like this doesn't happen. If he knew how you were feeling, I am sure he would be pretty upset with himself. Also, you must a what you want to know or ask for his number or a follow-up appt to discuss after you have digested it all. You ould call the dept and talk to somebody else and let them know you have been left feeling more unsure -they will definitely give you another appt. For now, you are right in letting yourself go through healthily with all the emotions you will feel better tomorrow, even better fingers crossed when the scan results indicate it's shrunk to an operable size. IF it hasn't treatment with chemo and radiation or just chemo alone will probably continue. But your grading has a significantly decent prognosis, especially with surgery. Good luck-you got this.
Hi Tiffany, I have been watching your videos for a long time. I am sure after your scans things will look better. You will get through this. We are going to keep you in our
prayers. You've Got this! 💙
Sincerely,
Lisa D.
As a P.A (medical professional) and a cancer survivor, I give you a tip! Whenever you go for these out of the ordinary check-ups (as you had those hives) you are likely to encounter doctors who are not at all familiar with your case! And unfortunately no matter how nice they appear, they give you their opinion whether you like it or not! Clearly he wasn't your oncologist. Matter of fact, he should have asked you, what you came in for!!So next time, tell him/her (female doctors can be as insensitive) what you are there for and that your prognosis, treatment planning are off limits for them, as you want to discuss these things exclusively with your oncologist and with him/her only! Don't allow them to step all over you. When in med school, I noticed that the subject of bedside-manners, patient/family sensitivity toward patients & loved Ones was highly underrepresented (too few hours allocated to this important subject)!
By being friendly but firm in your expression of aforementioned is part of your patients rights and you need to learn to advocate for yourself and necessary throughout your treatment journey. Trust me, getting used to gently putting your foot down when needed, you'll be a lot happier. Do not allow them to get you all worried! (for if something would ever be off concerning your cancer, these hospital doctors, would HAVE to be immediately discussed with your oncologist by the on-duty doctor calling him/her)
You will get this, no doubt in my mind...I am praying for you and your sweet Amma!
Sending lots of Love your way Tiffany. Everything is going to be okay. You've got this. 💙
My uncle Barry was diagnosed with prostrate cancer he was told he had six months, he pack in his job in and booked his holiday to Jamaica. Its now twenty five years since and his still here with us enjoying his life. Never give up you got got this 💜💕💟💜💕💟💜💕💟
Wonderful to hear 🙏🙏🤗
Bless him 🙏

He'll probably outlive the Dr!
Doctors prescribe drugs and give bad news it seems
Amma facial expressions speaks volumes. Sending positive vibes.
I’m a 21 year survivor of colon cancer. My tumor broke through the colon wall and they thought my bladder was included, but as they did my surgery and checked my nodes, I was okay. It turned out that I was full of infection from my body waste going through my body. I’m a very active and an old lady now😂. I’m praying for you and just fight to stay positive. God be with you 👵🏻.

Hi Tiffany, Will be praying for you- My mom had a dx of non-hodgkins lymphoma- stage 4- The doctors gave her the standard 6 months to live- told her to go home spend time with her family- she chose to fight and that was 30 years ago!!!! We Got This!!!💙💙💙💙
hows your mom now ?
@@hemasiranjeevi1283 Doing great- thx
Awesome 🌺❤️

As a Mom, my heart breaks for Amma seeing you go through this. She loves you so much!Praying for you sweet girl and your entire family!🙏🏼💗
WE GOT THIS💙
I remember going in to see a doctor when my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. He told her that it had spread, and things did not look good. Well that was over 20 years ago and she is doing really well still. Try and keep positive as God is in command of this. You have youth and strength on your side. You got this one Tiffany. 💙💙💙
Praying for you, Tiffany. 🙏 I've had bladder cancer twice in a year. It's the recurring kind. I've lived my life, have raised 3 great kids, my husband of 31 years just died, and if I could give you the life I have left so that you could live, I would in a heartbeat. I look forward to seeing all my loved ones again and I'm not afraid. God is waiting for me. I know God is working for your good. He always is, even when we don't understand. God bless you, Tiffany. ✝️
So sorry u had to go through that hope ur doing well💗
Bless you, I'm so sorry ♥️ you're right, your loved ones will be waiting xxx
@@delphinium5555 Thank you much. I believe God hears our prayers and only wants the best for us in this life. I'm learning to be at peace and my faith and belief in God is my greatest comfort until He calls me home. God bless you, too. ✝️

I'm finding some peace in my life and it comes from acceptance of what is, and realizing that God is in control. His will be done. Blessings to you! ✝️
@@starlight954h Thank you very much, Collette. ❤ There is a Christian song called "Heaven Just Got Sweeter For You" and the words are so uplifting and full of the belief that I WILL see my husband and other loved ones again, who are waiting in Heaven for me to join them. The meaning of the song is that Heaven is now even sweeter to anticipate because my husband is there waiting for me. I hold on to that thought and I feel a sense of peace. God bless! ✝️
Come on Sweetie...let's have the scans before making any decisions. I am a retired oncologist and there are always different opinions. Let's look at the evidence before worrying too much...you are doing so well right now and keeping positive is soooooo important. You have this Sweetie and we will do everything we can to support you. xxxxxxxxx
Such lovely word you send that’s so kind.I have also wrote some comments that will encourage this because girl
I'm so so glad you left her this comment. The doctor didnt need to say that to her before having all the info I think. .her staying positive helps her heal..
Lovely message of hope 😊 ❤️
My tumour was 7.5cm to begin with - and it was T3b I don’t even know what that means but after chemo and radiation it was completely gone - they did surgery anyway and I lost a breast but I didn’t care - the cancer was completely gone and that was 14-yrs ago love ❤️ you Tiffany 😘 xoxo
💙💙💙💙🙏
I really hate this for you Tiffany , it’s breaking my heart. The pain on your moms face and the fear in your eyes is crushing. I’m praying for positive scans this week !! We’ve got this ❤️
Selina any mom will be sad if their kids fight a batter that they can't help at all. Also the sound of a mom give out when she loss a kids
I’m a mother of two and this is my worst nightmare. Also as a funeral home worker I’ve seen to many parents bury their child. It’s not something any parent should ever endure
@@selinabaez6258 that one is the worst one then death. Because you become death in your own world after you bury your own kids in the ground.
I totally agree with you, her (Mom’s) pain, fear, helplessness is all over her face. Trying to be strong for her baby, who in turn, is trying to be strong and upbeat for her… it is too sad. God please grant this family a miracle of complete and speedy healing, the type of healing that only comes from you. Please give her the healing in this lifetime. There are many following her, who need you to move in her life, so that they may believe that You will move in theirs too. Lord Jesus heal her. In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour Amen 💕💕
Hi Tiffany
I just wanted to jump on and share something with you. 5 years ago my mum was diagnosed with rectal cancer. The tumor was so big that they could even perform a colonoscopy. She was very anemic at this point as well. She had chemo through a port in her arm that was attached to a bottle as well as radiation. During this time her bowel blocked so she had to have a stoma. Whilst she was going through chemo and radiation she would have to change her bag a few times a day which took some getting use to. She had great results in the radiation shrinking the tumor and they performed surgery. They didn’t know if the bag would end up being permanent but she got thru surgery and they removed the cancer. She had a stoma for a month or so until she had healed a little bit then they got rid of it. She is super healthy now and it’s all behind her. She lived with me at the time and it was pretty rough but like you she was pretty positive. I wanted to let you know a positive story from someone else who had a very large tumor. If they can’t operate now it will just be a little delayed but you will have surgery and be cancer free I’m sure. Sending love from Australia. (Off for colonoscopy next week to check I’m ok because of mums history) I’m a little overdue but 🤞 it will be ok. Nikki xx
Remember the doctor told you the cancer had spread to your lung and IT HADN'T!! They made a mistake. I'm sorry he scared you, but he doesn't even know. Lifting you in prayer, as always.
your sweet mom looks so devastated , that doctor needs a swift kick in the backside for worrying you guys before you've even had your scans , from one mom of a sick child to another my heart and prayers go out to you all xx 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Your ABSOLUTELY right, ill HOLD the doctor down as YOU give him a Swift KICK in the backside... then you HOLD him LOLand I give him another BIG Swift kick. Sweet Tiffany does NOT need ANY added STRESS, Doctor sometimes really have a shzt,ty manor. It's disabling on cancer patients already feeling broken and then to get NEWS to worry ourselves, iits just horrible! I want to give her and her mom a BIG positive hugs, I too, am struggling with cancer~ stage 4 cancer, and i feel so much for her.knowing how scary the unknown can be, At times EVERYthing Doctors , nurses tell me I find myself dwelling dwelling thinking uncontrollable, unable to turn my thoughts OFF,
This video brought tears to my eyes, seeing how she kept repeating the fear!

Wait until you have the scans and then new results. It’s not helpful to see a different doctor because they don’t always know the latest. Try not to over think it and wait for the appointment under the scans. Sending love and prayers.
The lump in my breast went from the size of an egg to an almond after chemo. I could feel it going down in size. I had a double mastectomy to get the cancer out of my body (the almond). Chemo does work to reduce the size of the tumors. There is ALWAYS hope, Tiffany. I had 15 months of cancer treatment and I am on the other side. You will be too shortly and you can get on with your life. Your attitude is great and is everything in this journey.
Can't believe this Doctor mentioned your tumour, before the results of the Scan. I truly believe, things will be fine. I have this feeling Tiffany. WE HAVE GOT THIS. ❤
I have a feeling too, and it’s the strangest thing, but I’m nearly always right. We’ve got this Tiffany. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Guys, for everyone saying the dr 'shouldn't have said anything and how could he know before the scan', yes it's possible. Maybe her Dr could feel it and guesstimate the size and with her case history was able to comment on the size and degree of shrinkage. We don't know. My oncologist guessed the size of my cervical cancer even before the PET scan. After I had a hysterectomy and a tumor later grew back, I could feel it with my fingers by copying what the oncologist did in the pelvic exam and I still check myself a few times a week and if I felt something, I'll call them asap. And when another tumor grew back on my abdominal wall after seeding on the incision site of the prior surgery, my oncologist showed me how to feel it with my fingers. This helped me track it as I went thru 6 cycles of chemo. After 3 cycles, I couldn't find it by hand anymore and the PET later showed it was gone. So yeah, I don't find it surprising or inappropriate for the Dr. to have given her his opinion even before the scan.
I totally agree with you, though we seem to be in the minority here! Good doctors still do hands-on exams, and that should never be underestimated. In fact, I did have the same thoughts you did--that he most likely felt the tumor during the exam, and refrained from telling her definitely that she would have surgery. He is obliged to tell her his medical opinion, especially if he had ended up examining her internally based on a comment she may have made about the surgery. Perhaps he would have done it anyway--who knows. He may be even part of the team, which may be discussing difficult issues among several specialists.
That doctor needs to be more aware of the impact of his words especially as he has not been part of your journey so far. Distressed to see you distressed. But YOU ARE RIGHT - it is far too soon for him to have said that. You got this girl! x
This is exactly what I said in my comment saying that was so insensitive never having met her before
He has ruined her weekend just blathering nonsense. He probably has no idea what effects his words have had.
Yes I agree 100??
100 percent!!
Agree💙💙🌻
Dear Tiffany, some Drs are so full of themselves. My first oncologist challenged me if I had cancer or not. I told my radiotherapy Dr and he had me fire him. As long as you advocate for yourself and remind Drs to update your entire team you can be a little less frightened. Tell all of your team what he said and I am sure what he said was premature. That conversation was what my surgeon had with me. It's standard practice for pre op appt. I was even told depending on cancer removal and margins that my ileostomy could be reversed. ( it was ). Unless you have had to fight for your life like we have .....no one can understand what our emotions do to us. I can't say don't worry because you can't help it. Your in survival mode. Let your friends and loved ones help carry the burden with you. We are hear to listen and pray for you, and offer some encouraging words.
I’ve had cancer twice (two different types over 20 years apart)..
What you are going through is terrifying, but you will get through it.
Love from Scotland ❤
Hi @Helen, just a little "Hello" from Belgium ! Hope you're well now. Love your country, seen twice in my teen years. Blessings xxx
Ah Tiffany I can absolutely imagine how you feel. He should have not said anything. If you haven’t had scans since radiotherapy then it is impossible to know how big the tumour is now, just keep that in mind. Radiotherapy will have done it’s job and you will get the surgery you need. Try to stay positive lovely xx
right, especially that nobody asked him anything about the tumor
YES he should not.. some doctors 😬 ! on a different scale, but still stressful, a doctor at the emergency unit told me, my abscess would likely be too big to get an effect from the antibiotics, I was on, and that I should count on surgery within 48 hours or would be fatal.. well, he was wrong!
It seems really unfair for a new Dr to waltz in and talk to you about the surgery when you were not there for that reason AND they don't have any updated scans! They have gone ahead and upset you, and put your emotions through the ringer for absolutely no reason. You know what you have, and are fighting it the best way you know how with their help. Makes no sense to say things like this to you! How frustrating 💜 I have dealt with York and Leeds hospitals in the last few months, for ovarian cancer, and there has been so many instances just like this, in my journey. Keep your head up. You've got this! ❤️
Especially a new doctor he didnt even know who the patient was......
Melissa V hope you keep well and you get free from cancer.Lots of love stay strong.Ill keep you in my prayers.🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️🌹
Honestly Tiffany, I’m a nurse I’m used to working with doctors and surgeons all day every day, I think some of them do like to give a bit of a worst case scenario JUST in case it was to happen to prepare you, some of them just aren’t generally positive people either. I think you’ll be absolutely fine after your scans and get a great result 😃 radiation and chemo are so powerful and fab at shrinking tumours I think you’ll have no problem getting your surgery!
@@ourcorrectopinions6824 when have I condemned the doctor I just stated some of them do not like to generally be as positive and that yes this can be due to preparing people for worst case scenario. I have worked with multi surgeons and doctors across the uk for 10 years I know some of them can be exactly like this so please don’t be telling me I don’t know what I’m talking about or that I’m clearly not a health profession 👍🏻 … I’m also trying to be positive for Tiffany 😃 you sound like quite a rude aggressive person so maybe you should focus on bettering yourself rather than being a social media troll 👌
I was shocked the Dr offered this type of opinion without the scans first. Positivity is so important and comments like that do not help. Much love to you and your wonderful family xx
@@nathalieloujein5959 of course and we all have the right to our opinion. As long as Tiff feels supported and keeps as positive as possible. That’s what will help get her through whatever she may face. I am humbled by her bravery. Sending her loads of positive thoughts xxx
@@nathalieloujein5959 I really think it is incredibly insensitive of you to offer this reply several times to comments made by subscribers.

Dearest Tiffany, thank you for sharing your heart with all of us. Sometimes doctors put their foot in their mouths and say things they shouldn’t. I am a cancer survivor and I have had doctors such as this. Remember, this wasn’t your regular doc so he likely doesn’t even know all about your journey. You are being lifted up with many prayers from Saskatchewan, Canada💜
Hold tight and don’t panic just yet, there are no new scans so he’s going off old information. I think it was a bit cruel of him to make that pronouncement without up to date information. Good luck, I’m saying prayers for you. 🥰🥰🥰
Yes, your right. Why mention it, when they haven't got the Scan Results. He has made her worry unnecessary. I believe in my heart, this Tumour has shrunk. She has got this.
Praying for healing
Trust Jesus for your
Healing one day you
Will be a testimony
For his glory
Jesus can heal you
Trust him believe him
Gods got this🙏🏼 you have so many people praying for you, lifting you and your (Mom) up for peace and comfort while you wait for the scans. We all Love You so much… Oh! Matt as well❤️
Hi Tiffany, I recently completed almost one year of cancer treatment and have followed most of your journey. I don't usually comment but felt that I had to in this instance. This new doctor obviously didn't even take a good look at your chart as he didn't know whether you or your mom were his patient. He was at best ... careless ... but in my opinion he was cruel to give you this news prior to having the new scans done. Not all oncologists are compassionate and the journey can be even more stressful with visits like this one.
yes! also report him to ur doctor!
th-cam.com/video/ZOX2eg1nfAs/w-d-xo.html
I completely agree!
Yes Totally agree with you.
Wishing u all the best💗
I hope you can have your scan soon so you know more rather than worrying after what that doctor said. You are in our hearts Tiffany, we all got this. 💙💙
You are on the right track Tiffany. My brother is going through this right now at 25 years old and I am tired of doctors talking this way without any scans or results being done. Don't let hypothetical situations get to you right now. Continue to stay positive. You're right all you can do is wait and pray for the best outcome! Lots of love ❤️ from Canada
Hi @Lulu, sending positive thoughts to your brother and you, of course
I hope you give your brother a lot of garlic too eat trust god
And carrots juice a lot

Tiffany, the hardest time is always the “not knowing “ time. Once you have a plan, you feel as if you have some control in the situation.

Hi Tiffany (I’m from Belfast N.Ireland) I had colorectal cancer had chemo and radiation treatment last November to shrink the tumour which had broke into the walls and spread to 4 lymph nodes and it worked I had my surgery in January and the surgeon got it all away with a clear margin throughout the whole process I only dealt with my surgeon and my oncologist unfortunately when another doctor gets involved they can confuse the situation as they are not in charge of your treatment or in on the meetings your team would be having so please stay positive and hold on to our Lord stay focused on what your surgeon and oncologist said and that is the next step is your surgery they know your complete history it will happen xx
Lovely and positive 🥰

@@colleendoherty241 thank you so much 🥰xx
This is what we like to read, positive posts glad to hear you are doing so well
Susan C..this is great info for Tiffany..I hope she sees your comment..this can encourage her and alleviate some worrying...
I’m so sorry to see you crying. I know from experience that the hardest part of cancer is knowing that you have it because there is nothing that you can do. Just follow what the doctor tells you to do and try to stay positive. Always talk about your concerns with someone. I have friend from when we were in our 20’s and 30’s. We have gotten each other through the good time and bad. We can talk to each other about anything and everything. When I did that it elevated some of the stress. You are always in my thoughts and prayers.
My heart goes out to you. I had my cancer 15 years ago and I still have fear of going to the doctor. Silly, isn’t it? Praying for you. Big hugs❤️
Not silly at all Catherine! You went through a lot and you can’t just “get over” it. I’d be scared of the doctor too! Sending thoughts your way :-)
Call him asap and ask for an explanation why he would, without a recent scan in front of him, discuss the worst case scenario. Also, you know you’re mom better than any of us of course - remember though… you keeping things from your closest support people probably causes internal/negative stress for you which MUST be avoided at all costs, where it’s in your control. 💗
Agree
Agree. Better call and ask to clarify than drive yourself crazy everyday overthinking
Yes -- do this! I might ease your mind. The unknown is worse imo.
I totally agree .I was told without a results from biopsy that i have cancer .I haven't but in results of what this Doctor said to me untill now i suffer with health anxiety. I regret i haven't complained at that time .You should said something to him ,its really bad what he has done ...
I agree, he can't just say things like this and that too speculate without scans.
Tiff, the odds are the tumor has shrunk substantially from chemo and radiation. Don’t spend too much time worrying about what might not even come to pass. Praying for you all
🙏🌻❤
Sweet Tiffany. I live in Texas and have been following your journey for a few months. You are such a dear person, and I often think of you and your family. I am praying for your complete healing. I am so sorry the doctor said that to you. He had no idea how that would make you worry. I pray you are in perfect peace knowing that God wants you completely well.
Love and prayers for you. As a nurse, I would recommend making another appointment with the doctors to ask your questions.
First of all Tiffany I want you to know that you are in my prayers. I say this with experience make another appointment to go over what was said to you and when the next series of tests might start. I am a cancer survivor of three different types and my experience is keep your brain free of anything that might have an answer so that you can somewhat relax and pray for things we cannot control. God bless you and give you peace of mind and take away your pain and illness.
I will be praying for you Tiffany. You are family.. I will pray and think of you smiling and cancer free. Someone special to me said healing is not always linear, it's not always conventional.., yet your bright light is shinning! I believe in you! I believe in your healing! Fellow cancer thriver you got this!! Praying for you always!! Much love
As a Mom I would be so sad if my daughter didnt share EVERYTHING about the cancer. If you are all over the place with worry or confusion, your Mom is going through the same thing. She needs to know.
Her poor mother & Matt, such a trying time for Tiffany & all who love her. God please heal her🙏🏼
Evening Tiffany - my heart goes out to you. I can understand how frightened and fearful you must be after your appointment with the Doctor and like so many of your You Tube family have said, once you have the results from the scans you can make a plan. Doctors do often give worse case scenarios but there are a whole team of experts reviewing, discussing and agreeing your treatment, not just one. I’m glad you’re using this platform to offload and air your fears - my Mum always said, “better out than in”. Sending positive love and thoughts. Big hug 💕xxx
Your mom is so strong to go through this with you. It's hard to worry about yourself and also your mom. You will beat this!!
Hi Tiffany, I’m so sorry about the news from the doctor. I just want you to know that my dad had lung cancer and went through chemo and radiation and when he went for the surgery the surgeon opened up and then closed right away because the tumor was attached to to many things and I would’ve been too risky. With all that being said, the radiation ended up killing all the cancer and now it’s been three years and all he has is some left over scar tissue but no cancer. So, don’t be afraid because radiation is so strong and you don’t always need the surgery for a positive outcome. Stay strong, we got this. Sending loads of prayers your way.
The hurt on your moms face is heart breaking i also felt the hurt for her is to much for moms i praye for you guys to get through this rough times
Keeping you in my prayers. I love the way you say "Amma". It's very authentic beautiful Tamil word.
Dear Tiffany. This doctor shouldn’t have said anything until you had some more scans. It’s really unfair to put so many doubts and worry in your mind at this stage after everything you’ve been through. Not great bedside manner in my opinion. Difficult as it is take all our prayers and positive thoughts to get you through the next few days. You’ve got this 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Sandra I am with you! Horrible bedside manners. He is basing his lousy opinion on her scans before radiation. What about her scans after radiation?
Common amongst doctors to disregard normal natural compassion and caring, almost as if they revel in a patients distress, ugh what a complete fool.
Nurses on the front line are way more heart filled generally, know how to communicate without filling a patient with unnecessary fear.
So sorry you had to listen to him, silly man!
Agreed terrible thing to say or suggest ,wait until the scans are done then talk about reality and how to move forward, doctors don’t always know best, he has her file and was expecting her yet didn’t know how old she was and assuming her mum was the patient
@@NadiaPipkin complete fool indeed …
@MISSis if he was doing his job and doing it good he would have known which one of them was the patient
I think of you so much. You are someone that helps me process what's happening in my family. Your genuineness is so inspiring, and I thank you so much for sharing this journey with us. I know that using this as an outlet helps you process as well. You are smart, dedicated, loving, and just so special.
I would chalk that up to a misinformed dr. He hasn’t even got a new scan! You got this!💕 Prayers and hugs!💕
Philly Lisa here.Pray for you Everynite.Love you from afar Sweetheart!!We Got this💙💙💙
Praying for positive scans Tiffany. You are such a lovely person inside and out and I just have to believe that you are going to get good news this week. This TH-cam family of yours is growing and we all are collectively sending you much love and prayers! We are all here cheering you on Tiffany! Stay strong! “You’ve” got this! 💕
I don't think u need to worry....it's silly to even listen to him
Why would u tell him...it's pointless
I don't know why people in the comments are saying that the doctor was wrong for saying those things to you because he wasn't. It's their job. They have to inform patients of every possible outcome. It would be really unfair to have people believe that treatment automatically means recovery, because it doesn't.
Although it's important to be positive, it's also important to be realistic. Expect the worst and hope for the best ♡
Sorry you had to deal with this insensitive doctor at a place that didn't know whether you or your mom was the patient. I am glad that you have such loving and supportive family, friends and partner Tiffany. Praying for you.🙏💙
I thought the same thing girl! Why would he even talk like that to her?
So insensitive! He didn't need to say anything at all. He hasn't been updated with her recent scans, so why even say it??
The doctors aren’t insensitive they’re realistic. No way to sugar coat cancer.
And that anymore it seems like too many in the Health profession treat it as just a job, not a relationship to the community they practice in.
He knows
Dearest Tiff please try not to worry too much as you need to conserve your energy for your surgery.
Having a different doctor that doesn't even know you and obviously doesn't know what size your tumour is, he shouldn't have been saying anything to worry you unnecessarily. This really is not good practice on his behalf.
I will and I know lots of us will be praying for you that everything has shrunk enough for surgery with a positive outcome. Bless you little bird and keep smiling.💚💛♥️💜
I saw one doctor who told me a worst case scenario and got myself and family all upset weeks that did not treat me regularly, then we went to the oncologist who was familiar with my case and well, here I am 2022 .... That was 2016. Wait and speak to the doctors who know you, and after scans. There are crap doctors. I too remove my shoes in the car Tiff. Much love to you. 💕💙
Honestly just watching your videos really gives me energy. I love how you have such a positive attitude and how incredibly you are handling things. Stay strong xx you've got this
We love you so much, Tiffany and I truly hate this for you and am keeping you in my prayers. I had to have minor surgery to have mole removed yesterday that my doctor was concerned about the look of. I’ve been really worried and anxious and won’t get results for 6-8 weeks which will tell me if it’s cancerous or not. It’s been a hard month and I don’t know what the future will hold for me. I’m only 29 and getting married in 2 weeks. But when I’ve found myself getting carried away with “what ifs”, I’ve just thought “if Tiffany can do this, you can too!” - you’ve truly been my inspiration to be strong and you’ve really helped me. I’m hoping the mole is nothing sinister but either way, I know you’ll continue to be an inspiration to me. Sending so much love xx

Hello Lina, from California. My 23 yr old niece,had a suspicious mole on her thigh removed & it was melanoma stage 2. So young..we were devastated.
She had it removed last month & they got all the cancer out. So important to get everything checked out right away. Prayers 💙
Heart goes out to you, TIffany! You are doing wonderfully well. Supporting you all the way. You are loved and have a great support system around you - keep going!
Hi tiff - don’t you get upset now! You are a strong lady - just wait for the scans - I am hopeful 🤞🙏🏼 and you are going to be okay - one day at a time - this dr was very wrong to discuss this without the latest scans - deep breath - you got this girl 🤪💜💜💜
Honestly I just wanted to let you know, don't give up,you're a very strong and smart young lady,I just had surgery after chemo,and my urologist tells me he thinks he got all the cancer, there has been times I had my doubts but Gods been with me the hole time,and he's with you.My prayers are with you and your beautiful family.
From Maryland
Tiffany,hang on in there .Lots of people praying, including myself.And like you say, you've not had post radiotherapy scan yet.Sending you love and prayers xxx
I have never known anyone who has handled cancer with such dignity and grace.
I will never forget you Tiffany ❤️
Dear Tiff, I wish I had your ability to let things go and accept the reality you've been dealt with. Also, I agree with you that he's going through the worst case scenario and going off the previous scans. Let's hope the radiotherapy WITH chemotherapy shrunk the tumor enough to have the surgery done.
Hello Tiffany, I have been subscribed for awhile and praying for your journey. I am a stage four cancer warrior and even tho we have a different cancer and are at different points in our journeys, my eyes still swell with tears when I hear you speak. I've been there done that should be on my merch. Haha. It's a rollercoaster isn't it, one you can't jump off of. You are strong and yet sweet. We Got This is the perfect words for your merch, just remember to always keep God in the "WE" and you will always be okay no matter what happens!
I am so so sorry that the doctor jumped to a conclusion That was not necessary especially since you have not even have had your scans. Your poor Mom looked so sad at the doctors appointment, it was a blessing to see her happy and smiling at your Auntie’ s house. Prayers for you and your family and Matt that the Lord will make you well and whole again very soon. 🙏🙏🙏🥰
Hi Tiffany, WE GOT THIS! I'm praying 🙏 for you that you will be able to have Surgery and get the tumor out. I'm sorry the doctor said that to you... It's horrible communication...especially when you are fighting for your life. Stay strong beautiful Tiffany ...
Tiff sending positive vibes and prayers your way. The doctor really should’ve waited to get the results so he could give you facts. We love you very much and know that many people are sending you healing thoughts and prayers. You are a strong soul and your videos are real. Thank you for sharing such private things. We got this!
God Bless you! You will be in my prayers. You are so brave to share this with people who don’t know you. Stay strong! 🙏🙏🙏👍🏻
Bless you Tiffany.. it’s very hard but you have every single person praying for you and your family. YOU are the amazing person and you will get through this. ❤️
So sorry you’ve having such a bad time,I know it’s hard but try to not barrow from tomorrow.Praying for healing and endurance for you🕊
I think what you were confusing is "T" and "stage". T is just a part of the staging (usually the TNM system, meaning Tumor, Nodes (lymph nodes) and Metastasis), so a T4 does NOT mean stage 4 cancer. It can be stage 3 as well ( which it is in your case, as I understand). The "T" only described the SIZE of the primary tutor ( = tumor in the colon/rectum in your case) and the extent of local spread/invasion. So T4b means that the tumor directly invades or is adherent to other organs or structures (in your case to the uterus, if I understand it correctly). I hope this eases your fears a bit regarding distant metastasis/spread (=stage).
Very kind of you to explain this to Tiffany. Xx
Many prayers for you Tiffany and for all those suffering with cancer. You are such a bright young lady and yes, you are right God is in control. Wishing for news that will ease the pain and ease your life. Stay beautiful and positive as you always are.
I am so sorry the Dr put such a scare into you. Wait until all your scans are done and go from there! Love you Tiffany. God Bless You We Got This. 💙
Tiffany I am sorry you have to go through this cancer. I do think you are an angel and God sent. I will pray for you to be healed. Your mom is your best friend and your boyfriend is very helpful too. God bless you dear.
Tiffany, I’m so sorry the doctor told you that without scans. That seems a bit unprofessional. Sending your prayers and positive thoughts. 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️
No scans yet and putting this poor girl through this , you got this beautiful girl , xx❤️🌹
Hey. I have been a silent supporter: just decided to subscribe to your channel. You got this! You are my inspiration. Thank you!
I'm sending you love...I cried with you. You are such a Blessing.
Sending love and prayers! You’re right in that doctors always give you the worst case scenario. Let’s have faith that this too shall pass. As you know, science now is so advanced, there’s always a solution for everything. You got this!!!
Sweet girl... be encouraged ! My husband had large colon tumor that was not so hopeful .. he went through radiation (us term) and chemo ... hoping it had shrunk enough for surgical removal , it had completely disappeared. He still had surgery to remove the section of his colon (right at rectum ) . That was 8 years ago and has been healthy as a horse ! Hang in there .. much love to you and your family .
Tiffany, We love you and are here for you no matter what, you and your family are in our prayers. 💜💕💟🪴💐🙏🏾🙏🏻
My dear Tiffany, you weren’t prepared for or even expected to be discussing surgery @ that visit. Your response is more than appropriate & certainly understandable. Please take heart that you’re doing everything to regain your good health, & that journey continues. Do not give up! When the negative thoughts come & they will, work around & through them! Deal with what’s right in front of you & that includes living & enjoying your beautiful family & friends. Continue to move forward…we got this Tiff!!!
I am so sorry that you or anyone has to go through these terribly difficult moments. I think the Doctor wanted to keep your expectations very real. Imagine not saying that after expecting surgery and then they told you after the fact? Doctors don’t always think about the mental weight on patients as much when all you want to is to maintain a positive attitude! Always remember YOU GOT THIS …..
WE GOT THIS 💙💙💙💙
Big hug from Canada. You are the bravest young lady. You got this! I look forward to seeing you well one day soon.
You are so strong and I know for sure you, your family and online family have the strongest faith that you are getting healthier one day at a time. Some days you have those ups and downs but we know for sure you will look back at these times proving that you did it and got through ♥️
You are going to be okay and well for many years to come. Some doctors are not very sensitive like others. I'm so sorry you got this visit with this person. You are very strong and loved. God will keep you with us and your family and your wonderful MATT for us to teach us how NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER GIVE IN !! YOU GOT THIS!!💕
For dry spots, you can try to use Aquaphor, healing ointment mixed with a pure vitamin E. It works wonders for me. Sending you and your beautiful family a lot of blessing.
Bless you dear Tiffany. What a shock that doctor left you with. Remember everyone who has had cancer, me included, have had some very, very difficult times. Let’s wait till scan results are back and then you will know the prognosis. Embrace the love around you and let it help you through these difficult days. Xx
Dear Tiffany, Until you see the surgeon it’s no one else’s call. At this point you are doing all you can. Waiting for the results is difficult. Not knowing is awful. Radiation treatment is not the joy ride radiologists pretend it is. I always thought the best medicine had the worst taste or side effects in this case. If nothing else right now, you can say “No, the cancer continues shrinking out of existence.” Use it as something else to focus on. A mantra if you will.
I love watching you and your wonderful family.
You’ve got this!! 💜💙💚🙏🏼💚💙💜
You are such a sweet and gentle soul. Worrying about your family more than yourself. I know it is impossible not to worry about what the doctor told you. God is watching over you and guiding your doctors. Sending more prayers for your recovery.
You will get through this Tiffany ! Be ready to do that boomerang !! 🙏
You are so right TiffanyThere is a lot of people that don’t want to know everything,When my sister was going through this 15/16 years ago she didn’t want to know everything so when she went in she just made it short sweet and got out of there but she fought through it very positive and she’s here today cancer free thank God you can do it just be strong
You MUST as questions Tiffany. No matter who's with you. You MUST put yourself first. Its better for you and Matt.
I'm sorry your doctor didn't have better news. Stay strong Tiffany you got this,may God bless you and your strong mom.😘
I am an RN of 40 years, hospice nurse of 14 years and the Dr. Spoke prematurely without evidence of current scans post chemo and radiation. Shame on him-!!
This Dr. Seriously needs to check himself in his delivery in messaging. I would fire this Dr. as this Dr. Is lacking compassion, playing God and lacks empathy. There is ALWAYS HOPE Tiffany..... hang onto that hope and find a Dr. that is compassionate and knows how to deliver the message.... Positive or negative.... based on scans and scientific evidence that is current. Shame on him ....shame....shame....shame!
He should get a serious warning. If NHS staff see this video, they may know who he is and speak to him.
I will pray for you and so sorry you are going through so much and you are so young. I know a lot of people are praying and rooting for you 🙏🙏🙏 (Marie)
