I just realised who she sounds like when talking... Naomi Smart.

She comes across as a lot younger than 30. If I had to guess, she'd be early 20s. She seems very sweet but her head is buried in the sand.

There was a comment on the new video saying it's a shame that Matt has to work all day and the come home and cook.

I wonder what she did before Matt and Amma moved in. She clearly can't and doesn't cook. Take aways all the time?

Look like she's had a few takeaways...

I just flicked through the vid called "what I eat in a day"

Greek Yog, granola, blueberries
Boiled egg and toast
Strawberries, grapes, more blueberries
Went to Nandos and Krispy Kreme

Another thing I've noticed which I find quite telling is that, like our friend NNL on the other thread, Tiffany is obsessed with watching Disney Films. It's that whole little-princess-escapism thing again. Not that there's anything wrong with watching stuff for escapism (I tend to watch murder documentaries for the same reason, no comments please).
 
She was always eating takeout or went to her sisters for food. She is very childlike. People her age are dealing with cancer, holding down jobs and bring up kids. In that respect she has life very easy, always Matt and her mum on hand to look after her or drive her. She’s very lucky to have that support. I just want her to do one proper sit down cancer vlog, start to finish with bullet points of what the hell is going on. She can make fluffy vlogs as much as she likes, love cancer out of the title though.

Hey! Murder documentaries are my lullabies.

Speaking of murder, Tiffany’s ramblings walk a fine line between phony and childish. she’s crafty and cunning even though she’s shallow. I say she’s got cancer, but is delusional in thinking she’s cured, but loves the attention *cancer* brings so pretends to take it seriously in titles and footage, but leaves out all real info cuz she can’t face it. That’s my two cents.

These are my thoughts:
The biopsies & scans show that the cancer hasn't spread yet.
The surgeon was surprised because he expected to find some progression.
In 6 weeks/months time if the cancer has grown(as previously stated it would without surgery) then it's not worth doing the surgery. Tiffany is possibly terminal as not much else can be done other than the surgery, which she will refuse. She is in major denial with all this talk about going back to work etc.

Then in regards to the pelvic exenteration. I have read some patient stories that have had the surgery. Every person said that when offered this life saving surgery they immediately said yes as they wanted to live. My father had a stoma and coped with it incredibly well and now a friend has one, its not that bad.

Anyhow, I could be totally wrong, we'll see.
 
I personally do not think she is terminal. I don’t know much about what terminal cancer looks like, but judging by what I’ve seen, I don’t think so. Or maybe she is which would explain the urge to do a multitude of things such as putting a Christmas tree in September, driving again and wanting to go on vacation. Who knows, but based on how she comes across physically, she doesn’t seem to be terminal.

I'm not sure - to me she looks quite frail. I remember what BB looked like for a long time - kind of fairly well, but getting gradually thinner.
 
Terminal doesn’t have a look either. Some people with early cancer can look incredibly ill and others can be very close to the end and not look as bad. Weight loss and fragility does seem to be the one overlap though and she definitely has that.

I truly hope we are all wrong and she’s not as ill as we think but I just can’t see how that could be possible and reading between the lines there seems so many things that point to it. Possible signs of denial i.e. going back to work, but also things like holidays, putting the tree up early, talking about quality over quantity, her Mum and Matt’s faces - nevermind the fact she’d be a medical miracle. I dunno, if it seems to good to be true, it probably is.

Look at Hannah Witton,she's had a stoma for a few years and manages it incredibly well,just had a baby and all but what we're forgetting here is that Tiffany is treated like a 12yr old and wants to be treated that way,she does nothing for herself so having to live with bag changes etc for her wouldn't work..when she was in hospital with cdiff her poor mum,who is 60,slept on a hard bed thing every night beside her,I know it's daunting but she's 30,has to grow up some time

Her channel has been in the same style as Zoella since the very start. It was probably always her dream to post mundane everyday chitchat and have people comment on that. However she also realised that people don't click on vlogs that have boring titles and they definitely click on ones with a very distressing thumbnail and something about cancer. The ratio of cancer vs fluff content is increasingly skewed now...usually only 2 mins out of 22 are relevant to the title and doesn't go in depth. In the latest video the thumbnailing implies she will talk in depth about letters (plural) from the hospital but it was basically just her reading a single Whatsapp message telling her family the genetic test was negative.

The problem is that she's much more prolific than other cancer vloggers. On other channels, at least 80% of the video is dedicated to health updates and there is generally only an update when they have enough news to fill a video. By uploading twice a week with Instagram and Shorts in between, it's virtually impossible for Tiffany to find enough content to fill the videos that are still fully relevant to her health journey. And she's clearly decided not to disclose a number of things (eg. previous surgeries) which affects her viewers getting a fully transparent image of the situation.

To be fair, it's her channel so she can obviously upload whatever she likes. Her long-term goal is probably not about being a cancer channel but to make money on Youtube posting everyday stuff like Zoe Sugg. She's hoping enough people who came for the cancer videos will stay for the vlog stuff and it seems to be working. Many viewers seem to enjoy the chitchat and she does have a pleasant voice and style on camera. It's basically not a channel for anyone wanting in-depth discussion about cancer (eg Romee Dussenbrook, Jenny Apple, Krocks in the Kitchen, Eamon and Bec) but an everyday vlog channel by a creator who happens to have cancer (or based on latest info, had cancer).

Spot on. Everything that you said. The cancer brought in the viewers that she has always wanted but she is not interested in having a cancer channel. She wants a lifestyle type channel. Which is fine but then she needs to stop promoting it as a cancer channel.
 
She says she's been with Matt for 5 years? But I thought she broke up with her ex-boyfriend in 2019?! (YT: we broke up, and ) Also, she's not all that sweet if you watch how she speaks in her older videos, and she was already counting calories and supposedly on a IF diet (eg. Macdonalds mukbang *emotional*).
