They did. That's why she was showing that they forget to take it out of her hand. She had to drink a liquid first called Volumen that distends your bowel so they can see it better. It has barium sulfate in it which can cause nausea and vomiting. So she did that and then was in the scanner for 20 minutes normally (without contrast). Then they injected the contrast through her IV and she immiately needed to vomit from that. Or at least that's what I could surmise from the way she talked about it and what a usual small bowel MRI procedure is like.

OK I get it now. Never had to drive that stuff and really had to fast forward that part...it was disgusting.

I understand not wanting to give a date, but if "someone" is replying to her fans that are asking about her and pretending to be her, that isn't right. That is deceitful when there isn't any need to be, they could just be left with no actual reply. So I would HOPE it's really her replying.

Well she wasn't honest about her filming schedule until she got caught out

I know in our heart of hearts we all wish for the best possible outcome for her, she's just a kid (to me at least.)
I know she rattles us but there for the grace of God.

Yes! Regardless of what Rabid fox or goat thinks, nobody wishes her anything other than to pull through and truly be cancer free! Does it take away the fact she is the most bizarre cancer vlogger out there? No! But feel sick for her and her poor family.

Drinking that liquid before MRI makes me sick, too, so I feel for Tiff, but god, why does she have to record every almost-vomiting experience she has right down to the noises? It gives me secondhand nausea to listen to. :oops:

MRI's should normally be taken on the same machine for repeat scans. It ensures continuity of results due to slight idiosyncratic differences between different scans at different facilities.

i note she has taken the advice of many including myself and changed the PO box to the RM Cancer Charity. Clearly surgery is close now and in my opinion still today or tomorrow and I am certain she would be admitted day before for this surgery.

No, her own po box was still there. She's just added RM donate info back on. She seems to be listening though, encouraging subs to donate to any of our preferred charities.

Does anyone know why the plastic surgeon said he would cut some fat from her bottom? Where does the fat get relocated to?I was a bit confused by her explanation.

Yes, it's been discussed here that the pelvic cavity cannot remain 'empty' once the organs are removed, I think for structural and core support, it needs to be filled with mass.

This was one of Tiffany’s better vlogs. She showed how worked up she became having her MRIs and admitted to crying in the doctor’s appointment with Amma.

She showed her determination to get through the scans saying “I have to do this. I have no choice if I want to live”.
Poignant. I did feel for her.

No wonder Amma drove home on her own. This whole surgery period which as been on the cards for months now is just like a long drawn out torture. Utterly devastating for any mother to have to endure this.

If only they had discussed and researched it earlier if only to normalise their exposure to the details. It would be so much easier for all at the 11th hour. Clearly, a few times was not enough, she needed months to adjust in order to come to terms with the details and changes and not have it so overwhelming. Speaking to others who are successfully on the 'other side' would have prepared them but given them hope to look forward to. Such a pity. Lost opportunities. Amma and Matt and Elodie all need repeat discussions and exposures so it is simply a part of the conversation and the sadness factor has been exhausted. I have so much empathy for them all. Even Astin needs to have it normalised to not terrify him.

Thank you. And thanks to all of you who have been very nice about it all on here. I know which family I would rather be part of!

We got your back, girl. Was easy to locate your sensitive, thoughtful comments to be able to refute the accusations.💓

No snow yet there...

My gran’s soup looks a lot more appetising than Matt’s soup.

I do agree with what she said about MRIs being kind of horrible, especially if you have claustrophobia. I try to keep my eyes trained on the lights in the ceiling behind me, and it helps a bit.

I'm surprised they didn't pop her back in it with an anti-anxiety medication and a benadryl. MRIs are so important, they clearly needed the 2nd one to make the best surgical plans in advance.

Did sound to me like surgery was coming "right after" all scans, and she had two more(?) scheduled for the next two days, I think she said. So, today or tomorrow sounds about right if these scans took up last week, but it wasn't snowing yet on this one.
 
Are we completely sure that the surgery she is gonna have is PE pelvic exenteration ? Because there is a comment saying it’s definitely TME and indeed it seems a bit better than PE …

A study was done on patents after having PE ..In our study, two patients died as a consequence of poor nutrition due to unwillingness to eat. I mean she's not keen on eating prior to surgery can't see her having much appetite after surgery


No it'll be morning early


I like watching it through the window but I'm not keen to go out in it far too cold for me ⛄

Tiff has never actually named the surgery she's having she's never said it's PE 🙄

Curly Top said:
Yes her vagina too. I think it's going to be reconstructed from muscle in her thigh.

The tumour is low down in her colon near the rectum I believe.

Oh yes I remember now good grief there's so much stuff going in and out I can't keep up
 
I was thinking this vlog may have been filmed on November 30th? She has a post on Instagram from that date, wearing these exact same pajamas and admiring the Christmas tree. But obviously she could have worn those same pajamas more than once lol so I don’t really know.
I saw that she put today’s vlog in her IG story. I felt so sorry for her when she was trying to swallow that drink. And Amma looked so sad. I pray that Tiffany does well in her surgery. If it is not today, I think it is definitely some time this week. 🙏🏻❤️
