Sorry, adding more from that article, I had no idea about these things:

"Death from colorectal cancer is virtually always the consequence of metastatic spread to distant sites in the body such as the liver, the peritoneal cavity, and the lungs. Patients with metastases in the peritoneal cavity (peritoneal metastases, PM) have the worst prognosis.
In general, PM are under-diagnosed as their detection with routine imaging protocols is difficult, due to their small size and limited contrast resolution in soft tissues. The true incidence of PM is therefore unclear, although in autopsy series it was reported to be as high as 40–80%. The development of PM in CRC patients is often associated with a rapidly declining performance status, involving recurrent bowel obstruction, the formation of malignant ascites, visceral pain, and malnutrition. In most cases this precludes surgery and systemic therapy, leaving only palliative care to ensure the best possible quality of life."

I assume her peritoneum was not involved as they would have discovered such during the big surgery?

Yes sorry I misspoke about her peritoneum. I meant to refer to the mystical “tentacles” that were wrapping around her organs. What type of tissue or structure was that? Another mystery. 🐙🐙

🐙 - That's how I pictured it when she described it 😅 She spread her fingers to show how the tumour was sitting on her organs.

I can't find it. I checked some of her early videos but not finding it. Has the video been removed (maybe she said some questionable stuff)? Maybe I'm skipping through too much. It's torture hearing her blabber and make stupid statements. This video came after the first cancer video and it had the story of how she got diagnosed, and how her cousin doctor read the concerning results. I know that she later gave a long winded non medical story of her diagnosis in the tea with Tiffany bullshit. That was unbearable to listen to.

Yeah, I remember her talking about pit pattern 4 so I’m guessing that’s the same.

Very much agreed. Maggie went about it the good way. She is honest and transparent and very knowledgeable.

I think what ropes people in, beside the dramatics and sensationalism, is the severity of the case. Jenny's views increased once she turned for the worse and Tiffany's case has always been serious. A young woman with stage 3 or 4 colorectal cancer, people will tune in. If Maggie now announced that she has just been diagnosed with cancer, the views would triple.

Sad but true. I hope Maggie's life is full of good health and happiness, she deserves it.

I still could never get my head around the fact she could have such a large tumor in her rectum and be going about life as if nothing was wrong, like how could she poo or even sit? Surely she would be in significant pain and discomfort constantly

Yeah, i don't understand it. She was eating junk all the time. You know what she ate the day before her surgery?
She said
"I'm gonna go to the hospital for two o'clock, so i guess i can have breakfast. Sure, yeah, i'm gonna eat something, i'm gonna eat the most random thing - eggs and pigs in blankets"

A good point. Would a person who uploads videos of herself dancing like that feel shame? Her insight and perception are very flawed, she reviewed that footage and probably thought her party dance was cute so she included it.

Speaking of forums she cannot control, it must be killing her not being able to unleash her block and delete protocol on tattle and tattlers.

I've thought that. We eat her up and l know she reads here!!!

That’s one area Tiffany never really discussed ‘bowels/constipation’ etc.
I don’t believe we ever saw her taking aperients, though she was taking substantial amounts of opioid's (Oromorph) so I’m sure between the meds and the tumour, she definitely would have relied on aperients. She told us plenty of times about the blood pouring out but I can’t recall anything about poop 💩

The 💩 pours out her mouth not her back bum, front bum or tummy bum.

Hi Tiffany 👋, you spoke about feeling comfortable asking questions and getting answers in your yay let's party the cancer has metastasised to my lung video. Would you elaborate in your next episode of this "medical mystery tour" what questions you ask your team? Maybe cut out the doors 🚪 footage and insert some content that actually makes sense. Thanks in advance. 👍

She was always eating junk and other low quality food. And you know the saying “tit in is tit out”. I have an inkling that the bowel movements from Tiffany always were a point of concern and that the use of laxatives was quite common.
 
I broke down and finally watched the stage IV cancer celebration vid! Amna looks like she is sitting beside the Grim Reaper. I don’t ever recall seeing her that sullen and frightened as our girl dances in the car to the great news. Even HA! Is trying to moderate her glee as he knows that its not a great day in this journey.
 
Just started watching the new video... I mean, honestly, good for her if she's happy-dancing about bad news. She seems like the kind of person who will always choose to look at the brighter side of things and you know what, I wish I was like that too, but I'm more of a realist myself and I just like to look at the facts including the worst-case scenario so that I can be prepared for whatever happens. But hey, if she wants to choose (toxic?) positivity, good for her - it's her choice. I'd never leave a comment to tell her how to feel about her terrible situation. 💁🏼
 
I felt much better when she said they will perform surgery, not ablation. No exam of liver at this point.

I was very impressed with her during this video. She is finally letting out her true feelings about her stress and fear about the progression of the cancer and what it means for her future. She definitely understands the situation she is in and what she is facing for the rest of her life. She looks completely exhausted and seems ill. She seems to have taken some of the comments to heart and was definitely trying to be more specific in her accounts of the doctor’s visit. I think she has placed far too much stress on herself to shove down her real concerns.

They told her it would be four weeks until the ablation; that might change now that it’s surgery.
 
Talking about why she was in such a good mood upon hearing about her lung nodule, it's because she always thinks she will get the WORST news and when she doesn't, it is actually good news because it's not as bad as she thought. Also she is heartbroken for Amma because she has been through so much and is still having to go through so much when she should be enjoying her life. Amma taught her to always be happy and positive and she is so strong and TT is very grateful she has inherited that from her mother.
The appointment is later today so they want to go to Home Bargains first.

Breakfast - granola, fruit.

At Home Bargains. Wants to get cleaning stuff. Looks at Christmas stuff.. they had lots. Doesn't want cancer to interfere with Christmas this year. Lengthy wittering on about a pen? Says we probably don't know what she's talking about (I don't). They bought a lot of cleaning products. Not buying Christmas stuff yet as it's too early. Reduced Watermelon from the petrol garage, 49p. Cheers.
TBC.
 
I'm watching :oops: Prepare yourselves for a lot of rambling (she mentions admiring her mother going through hard stuff but being happy. Amma definitely did not look happy and almost never does. Amma is a realist), many quiet moments with her staring into the distance, lip biting and those ever-present fingers on her face. She almost did a good thing and almost mentioned an actual time frame when thinking about since when the lung nodule has been in her but then she snaps out of it and goes back to being evasive. She just said "September"😂

Home. Are you happy to be home Matt?
TT is going to have a Power Nap.
TT can't sleep, worrying about the appointment. Prefers to have the appointment earlier in the day. Elodie is going with her, instead of Amma and Matt.

Home Bargains haul - loads of cleaning stuff, she's very excited about the Hob Cleaner, 99p. TT used to always buy Zoflora, it used to be 99p.
Hectic snacks for Matt. Toothpaste.
TT can't believe it's 25 Sept. Not getting excited about Christmas yet. Feels grumpy. Micro bites from a sandwich. Moisturiser.

Off to the appointment. Matt is staying at the house because a man is coming to look at the gutter. Waffle about the gutter and the gutter man.

--

At Elodie's an hour until the appointment. Worried about parking at the hospital. Astin briefly shown.
They leave for the appointment. More talk about parking at the hospital. Elodie always steals her hair bands. Elodie say hi. They have the merch on... plug of the merch.

TBC - final part coming.
 
She tries to explain why she was so happy with the results of her scan, she has to be happy because the doctors still can help her she still has options... OK fair enough, you can be grateful but I think happy is a bit misplaced in this situation... she keeps saying I have to be happy, no other choice than to be happy... Sounds a bit too much live love laugh to me; They have to get out of the house, let's do a trip to home bargains:-) OMG they got THE PEN , you know the pen with the different colours, and they got them in rose gold!!!!! OMG christmas decorations!!!! She didn't buy anything, it's too soon (guess next week she will go along and buy some gonks) Matt is home!!! HA... happy to be home and she's glad he's in cosy clothes... sleep now, she's tired, oh duck she can't sleep and she still has to go to the appointment... sorry I couldn't watch the crap anymore so I skipped the skin care .... Back in the car with her sister, going to her big appointment... sister is wearing the we got this t shirt as well... very important... ablation in 4 weeks, she's stage 4 but according to miss T nothing to worry about... Next day she's not well and stays in bed, doctor calls her to say no ablations but surgery...
