Hi my loving tiffanythinks family. ***I have another video edited so that will be up tomorrow just as a bonus video at 6pm*** I feel like I have learnt a lot about myself during this time and these lessons is something I will always remember for the rest of my life. Sometimes if you don’t ask, you’ll never know. Thank you for the constant love & support, you all are THE BEST!! I love you a lot a lot a lot my tiffanythinks family. we got this💙 IG, FB & TikTok: @tiffanythinks. Subscribe💙
Tiffany, I had the same surgery as you 3 months ago. Each week gets better. At 8 weeks post op, I felt completely pain-free and back to normal. Stay strong. You’ve got this!
That's is so good to hear. What I've read is that it is tough major surgery. I admire your strength to go through all that, i know it wouldn't have been easy for you. I'm glad you are pain free. It's lovely that you are able to show Tiffany you can come out the other side of it. 💙💙💙
I've been watching your videos for a while now you make my life brighter I have been a truck driver for 41 years now and I have developed a whole lot of health issues I have been put out of work now I am stuck at home I have always worked hard to support my family and now I can't do anything because of my liver and kidney disease along with being a diabetic I get into a slump because of all of this and wanted just to see it all end but you and your journey have made me want to be a survivor and get well and it brings me to you with great happiness to see you getting well and it brings me hope thank you so much and remember got this!
I know lifes hard charles but your right Tiff makes you feel positive shes an inspiration please try your best to keep your chin up you seem a lovely sweet man x stay positive 🩷
Charles you are not alone either, sounds like you've been through much and when big changes like what you describe happen, it's normal to feel overwhelmed, we need to have patience as there is a grieving process we must all go thru when we lose something so big. I'll be thinking of you and hope you find some peace, I know it's difficult.
dont know if you will see this comment Tiffany but watching your journey has somehow really helped me as i was diagnosed with breast cancer last feb so i dont feel so lonely and afraid when i see your strength xxx
I seee all my comments my darling - I pray that you’re okay, if you ever need anything, it’s a really hard time - please please let me know💙💙💙💙we got this💙
Bless you sweet angel , you must speak up for yourself my love and be surrounded by only positivity and light , be well and know I’m sending heartfelt thoughts from Canada xx
As a mum, I started to cry listening to you. I am so glad you were brave enough to ask to be moved. You are too young to hear all what was going on. You need positive atmosphere to heal physically and mentally. Thankfully all this is in the past.
im a mental health counselor in america and you give me so much inspiration and hope. but please remember you never have to post videos or push in any way for us. i hope you have a lovely therapist helping you on the mental health end, but you have one always from afar here! keep rocking it :)
@@dalialovesdoggies4361 she’s not. These are pre recorded when he had major surgery in December - take a look at previous videos and it will all make sense :)
Dearest, you've just had a life-changing surgery with a long recovery ahead of you. Asking for what you need is different than asking for what you want. Death is not on your recovery schedule. I'm so happy the doctors/nurses heard you. You took care of yourself. Brilliant! Stay strong!
I am having surgery next week (I don't have cancer but I have multiple chronic illnesses) and I am so scared but seeing your videos remind me that I am strong enough to get through this! we got this :) thank you for being a ray of sunshine
Hi Freya Dont worry sweetheart you will get through this x im petrified of the hospitals and doctors surgerys i shake from head to toe!! My husband thinks im nuts ha ha 😂 but dont worry freya you have all of us to support you if you want too 🩷
Wishing you a successful, uncomplicated surgery and a swift recovery. Surgery can be so intimidating. I'm glad Tiffany's videos have helped you tap into your strength. I hope you too focus on self care during recovery, it's so important. You got this 💙
It’s SO important to be a strong advocate for yourself as a patient so I’m incredibly proud of you! I have a rare autoimmune disease and have spent months in the hospital. We know what’s going on in our bodies better than anyone so it’s important to speak up. There’s nothing to lose by asking a question. Stay strong beautiful. We got this!💙🙏🏼
You're doing great Tiff, no need to apologize for ANYTHING. You are taking care of yourself & that's all that matters. Love you 💙💙💙 We're you thinking about Punky Brewster? We got this!!!
“You can’t please everyone “ so true. Most people have been so wonderful and kind on this channel but I do know that there are some bad apples who would go out of their way to criticise and say something that’s unwarranted even though you’re going through this unimaginably difficult journey. Ignore them. They are clearly trolls who have nothing better to do than to criticise and are miserable souls in general . We love you Tiffany ❤❤❤
So glad to see you tending to your needs both physically and mentally. That’s so very important and some don’t feel they have the right to do so. It’s not complaining but advocating for what YOU need. Besides you’re so sweet I doubt you offended anyone 💙💙💙
You are doing great We are so happy for you May God Bless you in every step in your life. Keep u spirit and u are a great inspiration to every cancer journey patient .Blessed with a loving mother always around u and the most loving partner who adores u We will always remember u in our prayer May u live healthy and stronger for many more of happy cancer free girl
You literally make cancer, surgery and recovery look so classy and dignified. I've been in a similar surgical position (albeit from a different cause) I know how horrific the experience with all those drains tubes catheters and pain feel. How it effects you emotionally. And yet you carry it with such beauty, you literally shine. I'm skint right now (daughters birthday approaches 🙈) but as soon as can afford to. I want to buy some of your merchandise. It doesn't feel like enough of a support really. And I rarely purchase anything like that. But i wanted to do something to support you in your journey. Your journey is as heart breaking as it is inspiring to watch 🤍💫 Much love from me to you ❤️
Tiffany, I was so proud that you spoke up for what you needed. Your body was telling you to move. What a difference in your mood and spirit in that lovely pink room. I think that's what got you home earlier than expected. Here in Newfoundland (Eastern Atlantic Ocean-🇨🇦) when you are incredibly strong, we say, "you're a rock." This adage is used to describe our mothers and grandmothers. Tiffany you are a rock! All the best, as you continue your recovery at home with two other rocks...Amma and Matt. 💙
I am so glad that you are on the road to recovery. Your videos are really helping me as I’m recovering from some complications from my own cancer journey. Sharing all of what you went through makes me feel not as lonely. We got this!
The reason of cancer is IL6 (it makes inflammations)-> STAT3(inflammations in bloods inclease stat3 in cells)->WNT.AKT.PAK1 SIGNALS( lots of stats3 make these signals)-> MANY FOXP3(those signals makes so many FOXP3 IN CELLS) AND THEN IT INCLEASES TREG->SO MANY TREG(THE WEAkNESS OF TH2)-> A FEW KILLER T CELL AND THEN PEOPLE GET CANCER. TH2 IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT TO KILL CANCER CELLS IT IS COMMAND CENTER TO CONTROL IMMUNITY. AIDS PATIENT HAS NO TH2.. NO TH2 chemotherapy can not stop this at all. To cure cancer people must stop everything step by step respectively.. To stop Il6 - low dose of naltrexone(naltrexone 3-4.5mg) and 5000iu vitamin d. -everyday To stop Stat3 - 48-60mg ivermectin(3days in a week) To stop Wnt.akt.pak1 - 2000mg niclosamide(3days in a week) To enhance th2(cd4+hellper t cell type2) - 4000mg quercetin 800mg pterostilbene 400mg egcg probiotics 40-100mg Melatonin .1000mg meriva curcumin.-everyday To stop providing fat acid - 25 g liposomal vitamin c 100mg Doxycycline 500mg azithromycin together and 1000mg omega3(- 4-5days in a week) Once in a week 50-70g vitaminc injection. To prevent Glucose 2400mg Fenbendazol (mebendazole) 30ml olive oil(3days in a week) 1000mg metformin ..- everyday With all these off Label drug. You can cure cancer. Not chemotherapy. . Like mickenbecker. German UA-camr.... U can not cure cancer with chemotherapy and surgery... 100 the terminal cancer patients that doctors gave up curing cure cancers with these methods in korea... ...
Tiffany, there are so many things that you share in your videos that show others what your journey is like and that can help them if they need to go on similar journeys. You did another important share with this video - you stood up for your own mental health. So many people in the world need to understand that their mental health is part of who they are and so it needs protection if it comes into jeopardy. You stood up for yours and that really sends a positive message, so thank you. This is another reason why you are so important to us. Tick, tick, tick. Hang in there, lovely gal. We got this 💙 !
Dear Tiffany! I don’t know how to put my word together how positive and pretty smile you have despite the situation! So proud of you and praying for your complete recovery and discharge home. You are a great inspiration for so many of us.
Tiffany, you are so wise for your age. I am 68 years old & live in America, in Texas. I have been watching your journey the entire time you've been ill. I pray for you. You are so wise about asking for what you needed, to be moved to another ward. It has taken me most of my life to learn to do that. When I was growing up my mother always fed us Campbell's tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich, especially at lunch in the wintertime. I love you. Thank you for being so caring and loving. I love seeing Amma and Matt, too. 💙💙💙
I totally understood what you meant as soon as you said about the ward and yes, you did the right thing. You don't want to be surrounded by people who are terminal and waiting for God when you're only just 30. No good for your mental health at all when the idea for you is to be focusing on getting better. We got this 💙💙💙
Tiffany, I am so proud that you were able to express your feelings concerning the ward. The hospitals where I live have converted their rooms to accommodate one person. The hospitals realize that patients do better alone. While that might not be possible for you, I am glad that they are moving you to a better place. We love you Tiffany and we got this!💜
I want to thank you, Tiffany, for taking all of us on your journey after your very complicated surgery. I know you gave us a general idea of what to expect, but seeing you there in the hospital with so many wires, tubes, bags, illustrates just how involved it was. You are SO special. and I love you A lot, A lot, A lot!! I'm sending you healing energy and prayers.
After my cancer surgery I was on a ward and I had (different) issues, and I didnt ask to move but was just distressed and crying all the time, and within 24 hours they had managed to find me a side single room and it was so wonderful to have that privacy and quiet to recover and come to terms with what had happened and was to happen. The drugs can also make you very up and down and cry a lot so please be kind to yourself and don’t worry about being awkward - you aren’t being at all xxx and you are right things will be so much better as soon as you are home xxx
Tiffany, just binge watched all your videos, I am amazed at your strength and honesty in sharing this journey with us all. Love how your mama and partner are so close and love you so much. Wow, you are just so special and beautiful. Sending you much love and prayers, and yes, we've got this. Love and hugs from Nova Scotia
Dearest Tiffany. I am so pleased you have your own room now and feel better for being moved. You are certainly looking and sounding loads better. It’s so lovely to see Amma with you. Her love for you oozes from every inch of her body❤. Continue with your recovery. U should be very proud of yourself. We got this 💙💙💙
This video is so sad to watch because our hearts hurt for you, but this video is also so very, very important and will help countless others because even in your fragile state of health, you recognized the need to advocate for the sake of your mental health!!!!! You are truly an amazing young woman Tiffany! I hope it means something to you that a stranger from across the pond wants to tell you that she is so proud of you! I recently lost my mom and I felt horrible for the lady sharing a room with her during those last few days. You did the right thing asking for a ward change! You are helping so many others and this makes the sad part of your struggle so very, very beautiful! 💜
Dear Tiffany even though you were having a very rough time at this point you sound physically much stronger. You are an incredibly strong young woman and I am so glad that you advocated for yourself especially in your weakened state. You've got this! Lots of hugs from the US. Love you so much sweet girl. And lots of love to Amma and Mat.
Tiffany, I think Amma is getting support from the people in the hospital who know a bit about your situation....and I know her positive, loving attitude has to be helpful to others also. That part of this awful journey you are on has to be a blessing! Right? Gods love to you all! Julie
I'm glad you have these videos. Not only is it showing how real cancer is, but releasing them in parts is giving you a chance to do more healing at home, without feeling like you have to film. And since we all know you like to be busy and feel productive, you can still be that while laying on the sofa editing. We Got This! 💙💙
The absolute strength and growth in faith that comes from situations such as these is the biggest gift of all. I have endured similar surgeries. I just had #5, but my Faith in Him has never been more alive. I’d do it all over again to have this relationship with God. You are going to be an even more beautiful and anointed soul, Tiffany.
I love how much stronger you are in this video. Your voice and eyes show how far you've come. Each little step forward is wonderful to witness. The c-diff infection was scary to see, but since you were home, I know you are ok! ❤️ And today I learned that you can still get c-diff without a colon! I thought it was confined to the large intestine.
I don't comment often, but I had to today. I am so proud of you for asking to get out of the other ward. I'm glad you asked for what you needed for you mental and physical healing. You are in my prayers every night. 🙏
I relate to you in many ways, I have had surgeries (liver related) drainages, bags, neck wires, nasogastric, etc. I have cried with you many times, but most of all I have been praying for you in front pf the blessed Sacrament, in Mass, at home and everywhere 🙏🏻We got this💕Thanks for sharing, I’m experiencing healing because I never shared anything and it was so hard deep down in my mind and soul. 🙏🏻Thanks for helping me taking those memories out💕
Beautiful ending to this video Tiffany. Years ago my brother spent some time in critical care unit after his appendix burst & emergency surgery. He found it extremely difficult & heartbreaking. He was 20 at the time ( it was 28 years) he always said the curtains around beds may block the view but they dont block the noise and you can hear what is happening to other patients & then their families. He still occasionally mentions some of the patients & that he was thankful he was one of the lucky few that made it out of the critical care unit that week. I am so pleased they were able to move you, your whole face changed from heartbreaking, fear & anxiety to the Tiffany we love smiling. Mental health is so important in recovery, you will have many low days as you recover but I hope the good days increase & that you are able to talk about your mental health with a professional as well as family & friends. 💙💙💙
I’m glad your brother was okay. ❤️✨🙏You’re right ! I was in hospital ,had an operation on my nose and had complications and was bleeding a lot . An elderly lady opposite me tried to hit me on my nose with her stick for no reason whatsoever . The nurse stopped her just in time by grabbing the end of the stick. The patient was a very nasty mean woman. She threatened all the other patients too . She used to stand by another patients bed at night and threaten to hurt her . However she was nice and sweet to the nurses . We were all vulnerable and terrified of her . One patient kept crying because she was so scared . The nurses just laughed it off ! The hospital refused to move us or the nasty woman . We then collectively threatened to sue the hospital trust for emotional and mental distress (and if the patient hurt us ) . They moved the nasty woman within a few hours and we were all so relieved and we all had a good nights sleep ! 💖💚
Oh Tiffany I am so glad you were moved and that you spoke up!! 💙💙💙Such a sign of strength to ask for help, for what you need. Took me years to learn that. I used not to ask for help, and old emotional legacy, and it isolated me so much. A long term neurological illness has taught me to advocate for myself and to ask for help and also taught me the joy of discovering how kind and lovely human beings are.
Oh Tiffany, you are so brave and well done speaking up for yourself. You’ve been through enough without getting upset in the ward. I’m so glad they got on the ball quickly to sort out a move. It’s just wonderful to see you smiling. I had a room to myself and it was great. Sometimes I just didn’t want to have to talk and it was so much quieter. I was able to sleep as I wanted and my hubby could stay as long as he liked. Matt and Amma are just the best! X
Dear Tiffany I am so happy that they gave you such a pretty and MUCH QUIETER room for you to continue your recovery! You deserve it….it was wonderful that you spoke up!!! 💙💙💙
Hi Tiffany! I usually don’t post on you tube, but I just wanted to reach out and tell you how brave, loving and just such a wonderful person all around! You have been through so much, I hope you keep getting better and better. I completely (well, almost) understand what you mean about being in the ICU. My mom was in and out of the ICU 6 years ago and most recently my Grandmother was there the week of Thanksgiving. My Grandma was 93 years old, so she lives a long, wonderful life. The ICU can just tear you apart mentally. You hear all of the beeping from all of the machines. You unfortunately come to know the code blue beeps. When you walk in to see a patient there, you have a nervous sickening feeling because you don’t know what you are walking into. It eerily quiet, not many patients talking. You just kind of sit there and hold your breath and pray. My family and I will be praying for you. Love to you and your family ❤
Tiffany, I am so proud of you. How you are handling this. You are the best. So kind and a real lovely person. You got this girl. Love from Emma, the Netherlands.
She's amazing 👏. She is so very special. I have breast cancer, and finding her saved my emotional, mental, and spiritual health. She drug me out of the pit of darkness that I was in. I will never be able to repay her.
I'm so glad they moved you, sweetheart. So hard to hear you struggling at the beginning of the video and so upset. I'm just glad to know you are at home now and on the road to recovery. Thinking of you and sending all my love. We got this. 😘💙
I will forever think that you’re such an incredible help for those people who may be going through the same issues and may need to go through similar procedures.
Tiffany, as a retired nurse I would consider you to be a favored patient on the floor because of your kindness and appreciation towards the nurses and doctors caring for you.
Girl! You are looking so much better! I’m glad you are in a room now. Maybe you can get better rest now. Amma and Matt, I miss you both. When Amma was brushing your hair it made me think of my mama who’s in Heaven. Every day is a step closer to getting home. I’m feeling much better about things now that I’ve seen your cheerful face appearing on camera. Please don’t worry about not doing as much as you usually do as we are all so happy with the littlest of things. Just your smile is enough. We love my friend!💙💙💙
Oh Tiffany, I wish I could give you a huge hug. You're such a beautiful person inside and out. You're so brave and strong and an inspiration. I'm so glad you're feeling better and, as I've seen other videos, I know you're now home. You've got this, onwards and upwards. Lots of love and hugs 😘😘😘
It is so difficult being on a ward with other people. On my ward we had people wailing, a drug addict. It was so difficult especially when you are weak and vulnerable. Well done for speaking up. I didn't do that. I wish I had now. The whole experience is very emotional. Well done. So proud of you xx
I’m so proud of you for telling the doctor what you need and don’t feel bad about it. As much as physical health is important, so is mental, as I’m sure you know. I’m also so impressed with how you are dealing with all of this and I love you❤❤
So proud of you for being assertive and asking to change rooms, it’s definitely something I’m working on, learning to ask for what I need. Definitely agree with the empty cup situation, as they say “you can’t pour from an empty cup “ you have to be in the best place for you to be able to help others. I hope your doing ok with your recovery at home, we got this xx💙💙💙🙏🏾😘
We are sooo blessed that you actually had strength enough to update with films even though you must have had a really rough time! I which you ALL the best! 💙💙💙
Hi Tiffany, So good to see you, Amma, and Matt again! I'm very glad you're showing us all that has happened in the hospital. This is an educational experience. And, I'm thrilled that Amma was recognized by someone, while wearing her tiffanythinks t-shirt. It's nice and quiet in your new room. I definitely think that you'll be able to rest better there. Sending love your way.
Hey, darling girl! Thanks for the great example of advocating for yourself! As you said, you don’t know if you don’t ask. 😉 Being able to see these vignettes of your life while in the hospital is so meaningful to us and it really helps to dispel the fear and dread we might have had when we really didn’t know what was going on. You are the best, love you a lot a lot a lot!
Aww Tiffany - you are truly amazing. All those wires and you just take everything in your stride, speaking up for yourself when needed. I’m full of admiration for you. YOU GOT THIS. Sending love 💕 xxx
You are AMAZING! The fact that you recognize that you need some mental health care is AWESOME~ Love yourself first, then you have more love to give others!! Continued strength & prayers to you!
I'm so proud of you Tiffany, making sure all aspects of your health is being taken care of. Thank you for showing us what a real strong women you are, you're a inspiration and model for us all. I thank the Lord you have Amma and Matt. You got this girl !!!! ❤️💙
I believe your mental health has a lot to do with your physical health. I'm so happy you spoke up and they were able to move you. I know exactly what you were going through. Before I was disgnnoised with MS I was hospitalized for two months because I had tranverse myelitis and was unable to walk, after I was treated I had to go to a rehab floor so I could walk again. The other people on the floor at the time were elderly people who had suffered a stroke. They had a couple of group physical therapy sessions that I would cry the entire time because I was very weak and the older people were doing so much better than I and it really messed with my mental health. I talked to my doctor and they let me do excercises in bed instead of going to the group. It helped a lot. On good note I eneded up walking again, with a cane, which was OK with me I was just happy to be walking. Keep up your good attitude and do not hesitate to ask for what you need to help you physically and metally.💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I remain absolutely blown away by the capacity you consistently display to remain so committed to documenting your journey so authentically. I realize we get glimpses, and there must be so many aspects of your journey that we won't ever understand or see. Yet you've shared so much with us all, and in doing so you have helped people in ways you'll never understand or see. You are a marvel Tiffany. I wonder if you ever sit and fully absorb the impact you've had on thousands of us around the world 🤔 ? I'm chronically ill and have been for many years, and as of a few months ago I've been experiencing the most life changing, life threatening and frightening medical crisis of my life. I often wait a week or two between binging your videos to catch up. I come do that binge session when I'm struggling mentally with it all. You never fail to profoundly impact me Tiffany, gifting me a priceless reminder of the importance of finding the lessons in my own health journey and modeling such strength under the hardest of human experiences. (I'll confess something here. A few times when I've been so low that I've felt I'd drown, I've done a silly little mind game where I imagine you and I both being out of medical crisis. You, Matt and your Mom visit your family in Toronto, and my partner and I take you all to dinner and have the best time ever, to thank you all for showing US how to navigate our hardest life challenge ever as a family, centered in unconditional support and love, humor and grace, and to try to be stronger as a family at the end of it. Also, as a mom of 2 adult sons around you and your sisters age, I want your mom to move next door so we can be best friends 😁 🤣 . You know when sometimes you just know that you and a person would be immediate friends and kindred spirits? That's how I feel about your mom. Meanwhile your Matt (my oldest sons name is Matt) is a younger version of my partner. I could not have got through the past 5 years of my health journey without the kindest human I've ever known beside me. Whew! That was a essay, not a comment 😬 . I'll hush and go on to the next video now 🤭 😁.
I am so glad that you asked to be moved! You seem so much happier in your new spot! Speaking up for yourself is hard, but you did! Great job! So happy to see you getting stronger!!
So proud of you...your strength and attitude is just amazing! Thank you for taking time to share & upload all these hospital videos...so nice to see your progress, recovery & smiles! 🙂💙🙏
I know you are at home healing from your surgery and having a store can be a challenging proposition. When my husband got his stoma we named it GLADYS. It made him more comfortable and everyone around him to feel more comfortable asking about GLADYS then his stoma. You might want to think about naming it.. especially to make the kids comfortable. 💙
You should be very proud of yourself Tiffany. Truly inspirational and incredibly brave. My mantra in life, and particularly during my cancer journey, is positivity breeds positivity. I truly believe that a positive outlook is the very best medicine. Keep doing what you are doing and stay positive - but don’t forget to cry too. It’s all part of the process and something I had to learn to do. Somehow, after a good blub the positivity and mental strength grew stronger. You’ve definitely got this!
Tiffany, I am so proud of your spirit and determination to recover and get well. I am also happy you used your voice to let them know the ward was not good for you emotionally. As a nurse a patients privacy means so much for their recovery and piece of mind. ICU and wards are to active. Love you much and appreciate you taking the time while recovering to put these video’s out for us. Love, hugs, prayers to you, Amma & Matt & the rest of the family.
Tiff, I’m amazed that you have the drive & strength to keep us posted on your progress. I’m glad you got moved to a place where you feel comfortable. Know that we appreciate you keeping us updated & you are loved. Continuing to pray for you. As I’ve said before, Amma & Matt are angels. I love their sweet, sweet spirits. 💙🙏
I also had a major cancer surgery It's amazing what pain does to your mental health. Oral pain medicine seemed to do better for me than the 2 epidural lines and patient-controlled line. I also had fevers every few days. I was very fortunate. My husband and daughter were as dedicated as your Mother and Matt are . Having them with you makes a huge difference also. You are correct - thinking about how much better you will be as each day dawns. I'm just about a year out, and its all just a not-so-nice memory. Can't wait for you to post that you are back to your lovely self!!! It will be here before you know it!!!
When I first heard you crying and the reason why, it broke my heart. But then to see you so happy to be moved, I let out a deep sigh! I am so happy for you. Mental health is soooo important. Glad the Dr. accomodated you. xoxoxo
I'm very happy you asked for a new room. It's so important to feel comfortable to heal. Very proud of you. Hope your recovery goes well. Love you 💙💙. Amma is the sweetest 💙💙
I can see you looking stronger in each video. So proud of you for advocating for yourself, so very important. Those of us that love you will be here for whenever you feel like posting. Sending you hugs and love. Stay strong.. you have got this! ❤❤❤
I'm so glad they are moving you. Don't ever be afraid to voice how you feel. We love you and only want the best for you. Be strong, we're all here for you.
I’m so happy to see your eyes sparkling again towards the end of the video. I had a tear in my eye when I saw Amma brush your hair. It’s so important to her because you are still her little girl. Glad you were moved. You’ve got this, Tiffany!
I never got the opportunity to prepare for my ileostomy. I underwent what was usually, for me, routine neurosurgery and didn’t wake up for nearly 2 weeks. When I did wake up from a medically induced coma I had the ileostomy in place and was totally unaware that my surgeon made made a “mistake” during my surgery and damaged my colon which caused a leak that led to necrotising fasciitis (flesh eating bacteria) in my abdomen. I spent nearly 6 months in the hospital before my ileostomy was finally reversed. You are dealing with your circumstances like a champ. You will feel better soon, it takes time.
We don’t need to see you on the couch, your candles. We’re happy to see you no matter where we are, and no matter where you are if it’s in the hospital just to see your cute little face is enough for us. God bless you and may God keep you strong and may he keep you healthy as you go through this journey❤
Tiffany, you are being so strong dealing with your recovery. You, your Mom and Matt are all such sweet people. I will pray for you and look forward to seeing you back home and feeling healthy and happy!😘
We love you!So glad these days are behind you.Praying for you in my mind and heart.Stay strong spring is coming.Sending you the very best and love, MaryAnne
Been thinking about you so much, beautiful Tifanny, since you went into surgery, watching your uploads. I hope you are getting better by this time. WE HAVE GOT THIS WITH YOU 💕💝
Sending HUGS and much LOVE your way and how AMAZING it is to be a part of “TIFFANY THINKS” family and your asking for what you need is absolutely “right on” never, never, never, give up! You got this! Amma and Matt are so AWESOME and so full of LOVE for you and you are totally CHERISHED by friends and loved ones. Prayers for continuing your healing journey and “thank you” for sharing your beautiful self with all of us.
Sending love from Florida USA I am also a cancer patient.... I understand what you go through!!! I was also a surgery nursing department for many years at the medical center. I have watched your Videos the past few nights, you have been through so much... Praying for healing & strength, as resilience... Take Care, Teresa Anna Maria Island, Florida
The girl you are referring to is 'Groovy Chick' I remember having a 'Groovy Chick' pencil case when I was in primary school(I'm 32, so a similar age to you). Praying for your ongoing recovery. Thank you for being such a ray of sunshine to so many people.
Hi my loving tiffanythinks family. ***I have another video edited so that will be up tomorrow just as a bonus video at 6pm*** I feel like I have learnt a lot about myself during this time and these lessons is something I will always remember for the rest of my life. Sometimes if you don’t ask, you’ll never know. Thank you for the constant love & support, you all are THE BEST!! I love you a lot a lot a lot my tiffanythinks family. we got this💙 IG, FB & TikTok: @tiffanythinks. Subscribe💙

I love you a lot, a lot, A LOT!!! 💙💙💙
Tiffany, I had the same surgery as you 3 months ago. Each week gets better. At 8 weeks post op, I felt completely pain-free and back to normal. Stay strong. You’ve got this!
Thats great news, hope you get stronger and stronger 🙋🤗
Thats great news Ali, keep going
So nice to offer Tiffany encouragement 🤗
I’m so happy to hear you are recovering well, it’s so encouraging for Tiffany to know how fast she will be on the road to wellness.❤️
That's is so good to hear. What I've read is that it is tough major surgery. I admire your strength to go through all that, i know it wouldn't have been easy for you. I'm glad you are pain free. It's lovely that you are able to show Tiffany you can come out the other side of it. 💙💙💙
I've been watching your videos for a while now you make my life brighter I have been a truck driver for 41 years now and I have developed a whole lot of health issues I have been put out of work now I am stuck at home I have always worked hard to support my family and now I can't do anything because of my liver and kidney disease along with being a diabetic I get into a slump because of all of this and wanted just to see it all end but you and your journey have made me want to be a survivor and get well and it brings me to you with great happiness to see you getting well and it brings me hope thank you so much and remember got this!
Charles, I do hope you get the help you need.❤
Wishing you all the best for your health Charles!
I know lifes hard charles but your right Tiff makes you feel positive shes an inspiration please try your best to keep your chin up you seem a lovely sweet man x stay positive 🩷
Hi Charles, sending light and love to you. We got this.
Charles you are not alone either, sounds like you've been through much and when big changes like what you describe happen, it's normal to feel overwhelmed, we need to have patience as there is a grieving process we must all go thru when we lose something so big. I'll be thinking of you and hope you find some peace, I know it's difficult.
dont know if you will see this comment Tiffany but watching your journey has somehow really helped me as i was diagnosed with breast cancer last feb so i dont feel so lonely and afraid when i see your strength xxx
I seee all my comments my darling - I pray that you’re okay, if you ever need anything, it’s a really hard time - please please let me know💙💙💙💙we got this💙
Bless you, Sharon. Yes Tiffany is inspiring. You've got this too!
Prayer's from Florida, I am a thyroid cancer patient.
Nice to meet you all...
God Bless...🙏
You look beautiful....
You are so very strong and that touches each h of us. We've got this....for sure. Luv u
Bless you sweet angel , you must speak up for yourself my love and be surrounded by only positivity and light , be well and know I’m sending heartfelt thoughts from Canada xx
As a mum, I started to cry listening to you. I am so glad you were brave enough to ask to be moved. You are too young to hear all what was going on. You need positive atmosphere to heal physically and mentally. Thankfully all this is in the past.
im a mental health counselor in america and you give me so much inspiration and hope. but please remember you never have to post videos or push in any way for us. i hope you have a lovely therapist helping you on the mental health end, but you have one always from afar here! keep rocking it :)
Why is our Tiffany in the hospital again?
@@dalialovesdoggies4361 she’s not. These are pre recorded when he had major surgery in December - take a look at previous videos and it will all make sense :)
@@themissingandkilledwithroxanne ahhhh. Thank God. Thank you
I imagine some PTSD.
@@dalialovesdoggies4361 she's not it's when she had the operation look back at the vlogs
I'm so proud you for telling the Dr. What you needed. 💙
You are so positive and such an inspiration Tiffany. You got this❤❤❤
I so agree with you 🫂🫂
Dearest, you've just had a life-changing surgery with a long recovery ahead of you. Asking for what you need is different than asking for what you want. Death is not on your recovery schedule. I'm so happy the doctors/nurses heard you. You took care of yourself. Brilliant! Stay strong!
Stay strong stay positive ur in gods hands love and prayers always my dear
Ur not demanding u have every right to tell them how u feel u are one amazing lady
Absolutely I couldn't have put it better myself.
The way Amma and Matt care for you is so beautiful, and how excited Matt was that you had gotten into your own room was so cute!
Their bond is precious. ❤❤❤ 💙
I am having surgery next week (I don't have cancer but I have multiple chronic illnesses) and I am so scared but seeing your videos remind me that I am strong enough to get through this! we got this :) thank you for being a ray of sunshine
Wrapping you in a blanket of comfort so you're less scared...and positive vibes Freya xx
Freys Mar Williams
You’re going to be alright , I will keep you in my prayers 😊 !
Happy Tiffany it’s an inspiration .
❤️🙏🏿🤗😘😊👍

Hi Freya Dont worry sweetheart you will get through this x im petrified of the hospitals and doctors surgerys i shake from head to toe!! My husband thinks im nuts ha ha 😂 but dont worry freya you have all of us to support you if you want too 🩷
Sending you lots of love and positive vibes as well. xxx
Wishing you a successful, uncomplicated surgery and a swift recovery. Surgery can be so intimidating. I'm glad Tiffany's videos have helped you tap into your strength. I hope you too focus on self care during recovery, it's so important. You got this 💙
It’s SO important to be a strong advocate for yourself as a patient so I’m incredibly proud of you! I have a rare autoimmune disease and have spent months in the hospital. We know what’s going on in our bodies better than anyone so it’s important to speak up. There’s nothing to lose by asking a question. Stay strong beautiful. We got this!💙🙏🏼
Hope you are doing excellently Sassy ❤️
@@MTknitter22 Thank you!💞 That’s very sweet of you.☺️ I’m grateful just to be alive.
You're doing great Tiff, no need to apologize for ANYTHING. You are taking care of yourself & that's all that matters. Love you 💙💙💙
We're you thinking about Punky Brewster?
We got this!!!
“You can’t please everyone “ so true. Most people have been so wonderful and kind on this channel but I do know that there are some bad apples who would go out of their way to criticise and say something that’s unwarranted even though you’re going through this unimaginably difficult journey. Ignore them. They are clearly trolls who have nothing better to do than to criticise and are miserable souls in general . We love you Tiffany ❤❤❤
Love hearing you say “cuddle “. Everyone here says hug. You make things feel so calm in a storm. Thanks Tiffany
So glad to see you tending to your needs both physically and mentally. That’s so very important and some don’t feel they have the right to do so. It’s not complaining but advocating for what YOU need. Besides you’re so sweet I doubt you offended anyone 💙💙💙
You are doing great
We are so happy for you
May God Bless you in every step in your life. Keep u spirit and u are a great inspiration to every cancer journey patient .Blessed with a loving mother always around u and the most loving partner who adores u We will always remember u in our prayer May u live healthy and stronger for many more of happy cancer free girl
I imagine it was the ward where people are dying I remembered being in icu it was horrible famiys rushing to o say bye ECT while u watch !!
@@mariec6056 I know exactly what you mean Marie I went through the same thing x
You literally make cancer, surgery and recovery look so classy and dignified.
I've been in a similar surgical position (albeit from a different cause) I know how horrific the experience with all those drains tubes catheters and pain feel. How it effects you emotionally. And yet you carry it with such beauty, you literally shine.
I'm skint right now (daughters birthday approaches 🙈) but as soon as can afford to. I want to buy some of your merchandise. It doesn't feel like enough of a support really. And I rarely purchase anything like that. But i wanted to do something to support you in your journey.
Your journey is as heart breaking as it is inspiring to watch 🤍💫
Much love from me to you ❤️
Tiffany, I was so proud that you spoke up for what you needed. Your body was telling you to move. What a difference in your mood and spirit in that lovely pink room. I think that's what got you home earlier than expected. Here in Newfoundland (Eastern Atlantic Ocean-🇨🇦) when you are incredibly strong, we say, "you're a rock." This adage is used to describe our mothers and grandmothers. Tiffany you are a rock! All the best, as you continue your recovery at home with two other rocks...Amma and Matt. 💙
I am so glad that you are on the road to recovery. Your videos are really helping me as I’m recovering from some complications from my own cancer journey. Sharing all of what you went through makes me feel not as lonely. We got this!
Sending prayers for you Jody. Many blessings to you! God is always with you.🌷🦋🕊✨
The reason of cancer is
IL6 (it makes inflammations)-> STAT3(inflammations in bloods inclease stat3 in cells)->WNT.AKT.PAK1 SIGNALS( lots of stats3 make these signals)-> MANY FOXP3(those signals makes so many FOXP3 IN CELLS) AND THEN IT INCLEASES TREG->SO MANY TREG(THE WEAkNESS OF TH2)-> A FEW KILLER T CELL AND THEN PEOPLE GET CANCER.
TH2 IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT TO KILL CANCER CELLS IT IS COMMAND CENTER TO CONTROL IMMUNITY. AIDS PATIENT HAS NO TH2.. NO TH2
chemotherapy can not stop this at all. To cure cancer people must stop everything step by step respectively..
To stop Il6 - low dose of naltrexone(naltrexone 3-4.5mg) and 5000iu vitamin d. -everyday
To stop Stat3 - 48-60mg ivermectin(3days in a week)
To stop Wnt.akt.pak1 - 2000mg niclosamide(3days in a week)
To enhance th2(cd4+hellper t cell type2) - 4000mg quercetin 800mg pterostilbene 400mg egcg probiotics 40-100mg Melatonin .1000mg meriva curcumin.-everyday
To stop providing fat acid - 25 g liposomal vitamin c 100mg Doxycycline 500mg azithromycin together and 1000mg omega3(- 4-5days in a week)
Once in a week 50-70g vitaminc injection.
To prevent Glucose
2400mg Fenbendazol (mebendazole) 30ml olive oil(3days in a week) 1000mg metformin ..- everyday
With all these off Label drug. You can cure cancer. Not chemotherapy. . Like mickenbecker. German UA-camr....
U can not cure cancer with chemotherapy and surgery...
100 the terminal cancer patients that doctors gave up curing cure cancers with these methods in korea...
...
I wish you well on your journey to recover. Stay well and enjoy life.
The mind is the most powerful. You believe and you will conquer.
Tiffany, there are so many things that you share in your videos that show others what your journey is like and that can help them if they need to go on similar journeys. You did another important share with this video - you stood up for your own mental health. So many people in the world need to understand that their mental health is part of who they are and so it needs protection if it comes into jeopardy. You stood up for yours and that really sends a positive message, so thank you. This is another reason why you are so important to us. Tick, tick, tick. Hang in there, lovely gal. We got this 💙 !
Dear Tiffany! I don’t know how to put my word together how positive and pretty smile you have despite the situation! So proud of you and praying for your complete recovery and discharge home. You are a great inspiration for so many of us.
Tiffany, you are so wise for your age. I am 68 years old & live in America, in Texas. I have been watching your journey the entire time you've been ill. I pray for you. You are so wise about asking for what you needed, to be moved to another ward. It has taken me most of my life to learn to do that. When I was growing up my mother always fed us Campbell's tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich, especially at lunch in the wintertime. I love you. Thank you for being so caring and loving. I love seeing Amma and Matt, too. 💙💙💙
Mental recovery is just as important as physical recovery,well done for being brave and speaking up xx
I totally understood what you meant as soon as you said about the ward and yes, you did the right thing. You don't want to be surrounded by people who are terminal and waiting for God when you're only just 30. No good for your mental health at all when the idea for you is to be focusing on getting better. We got this 💙💙💙
Stay strong Tiffany we’re here for you.
I am a Lydia, here, also.
Tiffany, I am so proud that you were able to express your feelings concerning the ward. The hospitals where I live have converted their rooms to accommodate one person. The hospitals realize that patients do better alone. While that might not be possible for you, I am glad that they are moving you to a better place. We love you Tiffany and we got this!💜
I want to thank you, Tiffany, for taking all of us on your journey after your very complicated surgery. I know you gave us a general idea of what to expect, but seeing you there in the hospital with so many wires, tubes, bags, illustrates just how involved it was. You are SO special. and I love you A lot, A lot, A lot!! I'm sending you healing energy and prayers.
I’m so proud of you for speaking up and getting the doctor to move you. Mental health plays a huge role in healing from surgery.
Your journey has been so up and down and yet you remain positive and optimistic the entire time. You are a force, Tiffany!!! We got this!
After my cancer surgery I was on a ward and I had (different) issues, and I didnt ask to move but was just distressed and crying all the time, and within 24 hours they had managed to find me a side single room and it was so wonderful to have that privacy and quiet to recover and come to terms with what had happened and was to happen. The drugs can also make you very up and down and cry a lot so please be kind to yourself and don’t worry about being awkward - you aren’t being at all xxx and you are right things will be so much better as soon as you are home xxx
What a lovely positive message! ❤️
Tiffany, just binge watched all your videos, I am amazed at your strength and honesty in sharing this journey with us all. Love how your mama and partner are so close and love you so much. Wow, you are just so special and beautiful. Sending you much love and prayers, and yes, we've got this. Love and hugs from Nova Scotia
Dearest Tiffany. I am so pleased you have your own room now and feel better for being moved. You are certainly looking and sounding loads better. It’s so lovely to see Amma with you. Her love for you oozes from every inch of her body❤. Continue with your recovery. U should be very proud of yourself. We got this 💙💙💙
This video is so sad to watch because our hearts hurt for you, but this video is also so very, very important and will help countless others because even in your fragile state of health, you recognized the need to advocate for the sake of your mental health!!!!! You are truly an amazing young woman Tiffany! I hope it means something to you that a stranger from across the pond wants to tell you that she is so proud of you! I recently lost my mom and I felt horrible for the lady sharing a room with her during those last few days. You did the right thing asking for a ward change! You are helping so many others and this makes the sad part of your struggle so very, very beautiful! 💜
What a lovely message
Im so sorry you lost your Mom. Mom’s are so special. My condolences
@@susanbaptista3967 Thank you so much for your kindness! I miss her terribly!
@@littlemissshihtzu 🙏 ❤️
@@robynharvey9295 Thank you!
Dear Tiffany even though you were having a very rough time at this point you sound physically much stronger. You are an incredibly strong young woman and I am so glad that you advocated for yourself especially in your weakened state. You've got this! Lots of hugs from the US. Love you so much sweet girl. And lots of love to Amma and Mat.
Tiffany, I think Amma is getting support from the people in the hospital who know a bit about your situation....and I know her positive, loving attitude has to be helpful to others also. That part of this awful journey you are on has to be a blessing! Right? Gods love to you all! Julie
I can't even express how much I admire you. You're so special. We got this 💙
I feel the same.
I'm glad you have these videos. Not only is it showing how real cancer is, but releasing them in parts is giving you a chance to do more healing at home, without feeling like you have to film. And since we all know you like to be busy and feel productive, you can still be that while laying on the sofa editing. We Got This! 💙💙
The absolute strength and growth in faith that comes from situations such as these is the biggest gift of all. I have endured similar surgeries. I just had #5, but my Faith in Him has never been more alive. I’d do it all over again to have this relationship with God. You are going to be an even more beautiful and anointed soul, Tiffany.
AMEN!!!!!!
Isn't it funny, we mums are a protective lot, even for kids who are not our own! ❤️
Love how you can still laugh about things. Such an inspiration Tiffany. Honestly your incredible x
I love how much stronger you are in this video. Your voice and eyes show how far you've come. Each little step forward is wonderful to witness. The c-diff infection was scary to see, but since you were home, I know you are ok! ❤️
And today I learned that you can still get c-diff without a colon! I thought it was confined to the large intestine.
Tiffany, we love you. It's as if we are all your pen pals. I'm so proud of you and I just admire you so much. You're amazing.
So so proud of you Tiffany! ❤❤❤ you are so brave to show us your struggles!
Tiff, You’re almost to 100k subscribers 🎉. You got this, we’re all praying for you. 💙 💙
I don't comment often, but I had to today. I am so proud of you for asking to get out of the other ward. I'm glad you asked for what you needed for you mental and physical healing. You are in my prayers every night. 🙏
Sending positive vibes from newfoundland Canada. You are looking better and better. I hope your soul is healing as well
aww thank you so much 💙💙 lots of lovee💙
Hi to you in Newfoundland. My father was born there.
And BC., Canada.
And Nova Scotia
I relate to you in many ways, I have had surgeries (liver related) drainages, bags, neck wires, nasogastric, etc. I have cried with you many times, but most of all I have been praying for you in front pf the blessed Sacrament, in Mass, at home and everywhere 🙏🏻We got this💕Thanks for sharing, I’m experiencing healing because I never shared anything and it was so hard deep down in my mind and soul. 🙏🏻Thanks for helping me taking those memories out💕
Every blessing to you!
Beautiful ending to this video Tiffany. Years ago my brother spent some time in critical care unit after his appendix burst & emergency surgery. He found it extremely difficult & heartbreaking. He was 20 at the time ( it was 28 years) he always said the curtains around beds may block the view but they dont block the noise and you can hear what is happening to other patients & then their families. He still occasionally mentions some of the patients & that he was thankful he was one of the lucky few that made it out of the critical care unit that week. I am so pleased they were able to move you, your whole face changed from heartbreaking, fear & anxiety to the Tiffany we love smiling. Mental health is so important in recovery, you will have many low days as you recover but I hope the good days increase & that you are able to talk about your mental health with a professional as well as family & friends. 💙💙💙
I’m glad your brother was okay. ❤️✨🙏You’re right ! I was in hospital ,had an operation on my nose and had complications and was bleeding a lot . An elderly lady opposite me tried to hit me on my nose with her stick for no reason whatsoever . The nurse stopped her just in time by grabbing the end of the stick. The patient was a very nasty mean woman. She threatened all the other patients too . She used to stand by another patients bed at night and threaten to hurt her . However she was nice and sweet to the nurses . We were all vulnerable and terrified of her . One patient kept crying because she was so scared .
The nurses just laughed it off ! The hospital refused to move us or the nasty woman . We then collectively threatened to sue the hospital trust for emotional and mental distress (and if the patient hurt us ) . They moved the nasty woman within a few hours and we were all so relieved and we all had a good nights sleep ! 💖💚
Oh Tiffany I am so glad you were moved and that you spoke up!! 💙💙💙Such a sign of strength to ask for help, for what you need. Took me years to learn that. I used not to ask for help, and old emotional legacy, and it isolated me so much. A long term neurological illness has taught me to advocate for myself and to ask for help and also taught me the joy of discovering how kind and lovely human beings are.
Oh Tiffany, you are so brave and well done speaking up for yourself. You’ve been through enough without getting upset in the ward. I’m so glad they got on the ball quickly to sort out a move. It’s just wonderful to see you smiling. I had a room to myself and it was great. Sometimes I just didn’t want to have to talk and it was so much quieter. I was able to sleep as I wanted and my hubby could stay as long as he liked. Matt and Amma are just the best! X
So hope you're feeling better! Stay strong, you got this!!
Dear Tiffany I am so happy that they gave you such a pretty and MUCH QUIETER room for you to continue your recovery! You deserve it….it was wonderful that you spoke up!!! 💙💙💙
Hi Tiffany! I usually don’t post on you tube, but I just wanted to reach out and tell you how brave, loving and just such a wonderful person all around! You have been through so much, I hope you keep getting better and better. I completely (well, almost) understand what you mean about being in the ICU. My mom was in and out of the ICU 6 years ago and most recently my Grandmother was there the week of Thanksgiving. My Grandma was 93 years old, so she lives a long, wonderful life. The ICU can just tear you apart mentally. You hear all of the beeping from all of the machines. You unfortunately come to know the code blue beeps. When you walk in to see a patient there, you have a nervous sickening feeling because you don’t know what you are walking into. It eerily quiet, not many patients talking. You just kind of sit there and hold your breath and pray. My family and I will be praying for you. Love to you and your family ❤
Tiffany, I am so proud of you. How you are handling this. You are the best. So kind and a real lovely person. You got this girl. Love from Emma, the Netherlands.
She's amazing 👏. She is so very special. I have breast cancer, and finding her saved my emotional, mental, and spiritual health. She drug me out of the pit of darkness that I was in. I will never be able to repay her.
I'm so glad they moved you, sweetheart. So hard to hear you struggling at the beginning of the video and so upset. I'm just glad to know you are at home now and on the road to recovery. Thinking of you and sending all my love. We got this. 😘💙
I will forever think that you’re such an incredible help for those people who may be going through the same issues and may need to go through similar procedures.
Tiffany, as a retired nurse I would consider you to be a favored patient on the floor because of your kindness and appreciation towards the nurses and doctors caring for you.
Girl! You are looking so much better! I’m glad you are in a room now. Maybe you can get better rest now. Amma and Matt, I miss you both. When Amma was brushing your hair it made me think of my mama who’s in Heaven. Every day is a step closer to getting home. I’m feeling much better about things now that I’ve seen your cheerful face appearing on camera. Please don’t worry about not doing as much as you usually do as we are all so happy with the littlest of things. Just your smile is enough. We love my friend!💙💙💙
everyone lets get Tiffany to 100k she's so close i think she will be very happy.
I’m so happy you told /asked the doctor’s for what you needed. Keep strong and stay encouraged. You got this!
Oh Tiffany, I wish I could give you a huge hug. You're such a beautiful person inside and out. You're so brave and strong and an inspiration.
I'm so glad you're feeling better and, as I've seen other videos, I know you're now home. You've got this, onwards and upwards. Lots of love and hugs 😘😘😘
It is so difficult being on a ward with other people. On my ward we had people wailing, a drug addict. It was so difficult especially when you are weak and vulnerable. Well done for speaking up. I didn't do that. I wish I had now. The whole experience is very emotional. Well done. So proud of you xx
I’m so proud of you for telling the doctor what you need and don’t feel bad about it. As much as physical health is important, so is mental, as I’m sure you know. I’m also so impressed with how you are dealing with all of this and I love you❤❤
So proud of you for being assertive and asking to change rooms, it’s definitely something I’m working on, learning to ask for what I need. Definitely agree with the empty cup situation, as they say “you can’t pour from an empty cup “ you have to be in the best place for you to be able to help others. I hope your doing ok with your recovery at home, we got this xx💙💙💙🙏🏾😘
We are sooo blessed that you actually had strength enough to update with films even though you must have had a really rough time! I which you ALL the best! 💙💙💙
Hi Tiffany, So good to see you, Amma, and Matt again! I'm very glad you're showing us all that has happened in the hospital. This is an educational experience. And, I'm thrilled that Amma was recognized by someone, while wearing her tiffanythinks t-shirt. It's nice and quiet in your new room. I definitely think that you'll be able to rest better there. Sending love your way.
All you been thru with surgery, you're always in a good mood and smiling. Continued prayers for your recovery.
Hey, darling girl! Thanks for the great example of advocating for yourself! As you said, you don’t know if you don’t ask. 😉 Being able to see these vignettes of your life while in the hospital is so meaningful to us and it really helps to dispel the fear and dread we might have had when we really didn’t know what was going on. You are the best, love you a lot a lot a lot!
Aww Tiffany - you are truly amazing. All those wires and you just take everything in your stride, speaking up for yourself when needed. I’m full of admiration for you. YOU GOT THIS. Sending love 💕 xxx
You are AMAZING! The fact that you recognize that you need some mental health care is AWESOME~ Love yourself first, then you have more love to give others!!
Continued strength & prayers to you!
I'm so proud of you Tiffany, making sure all aspects of your health is being taken care of. Thank you for showing us what a real strong women you are, you're a inspiration and model for us all. I thank the Lord you have Amma and Matt. You got this girl !!!! ❤️💙
I believe your mental health has a lot to do with your physical health. I'm so happy you spoke up and they were able to move you. I know exactly what you were going through. Before I was disgnnoised with MS I was hospitalized for two months because I had tranverse myelitis and was unable to walk, after I was treated I had to go to a rehab floor so I could walk again. The other people on the floor at the time were elderly people who had suffered a stroke. They had a couple of group physical therapy sessions that I would cry the entire time because I was very weak and the older people were doing so much better than I and it really messed with my mental health. I talked to my doctor and they let me do excercises in bed instead of going to the group. It helped a lot. On good note I eneded up walking again, with a cane, which was OK with me I was just happy to be walking. Keep up your good attitude and do not hesitate to ask for what you need to help you physically and metally.💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I remain absolutely blown away by the capacity you consistently display to remain so committed to documenting your journey so authentically. I realize we get glimpses, and there must be so many aspects of your journey that we won't ever understand or see. Yet you've shared so much with us all, and in doing so you have helped people in ways you'll never understand or see.
You are a marvel Tiffany. I wonder if you ever sit and fully absorb the impact you've had on thousands of us around the world 🤔 ?
I'm chronically ill and have been for many years, and as of a few months ago I've been experiencing the most life changing, life threatening and frightening medical crisis of my life.
I often wait a week or two between binging your videos to catch up. I come do that binge session when I'm struggling mentally with it all. You never fail to profoundly impact me Tiffany, gifting me a priceless reminder of the importance of finding the lessons in my own health journey and modeling such strength under the hardest of human experiences.
(I'll confess something here. A few times when I've been so low that I've felt I'd drown, I've done a silly little mind game where I imagine you and I both being out of medical crisis. You, Matt and your Mom visit your family in Toronto, and my partner and I take you all to dinner and have the best time ever, to thank you all for showing US how to navigate our hardest life challenge ever as a family, centered in unconditional support and love, humor and grace, and to try to be stronger as a family at the end of it.
Also, as a mom of 2 adult sons around you and your sisters age, I want your mom to move next door so we can be best friends 😁 🤣 . You know when sometimes you just know that you and a person would be immediate friends and kindred spirits? That's how I feel about your mom. Meanwhile your Matt (my oldest sons name is Matt) is a younger version of my partner. I could not have got through the past 5 years of my health journey without the kindest human I've ever known beside me.
Whew! That was a essay, not a comment 😬 .
I'll hush and go on to the next video now 🤭 😁.
I am so glad that you asked to be moved! You seem so much happier in your new spot! Speaking up for yourself is hard, but you did! Great job! So happy to see you getting stronger!!
So proud of you...your strength and attitude is just amazing! Thank you for taking time to share & upload all these hospital videos...so nice to see your progress, recovery & smiles! 🙂💙🙏
I know you are at home healing from your surgery and having a store can be a challenging proposition. When my husband got his stoma we named it GLADYS. It made him more comfortable and everyone around him to feel more comfortable asking about GLADYS then his stoma. You might want to think about naming it.. especially to make the kids comfortable. 💙
Tiffany, what a rockstar you are. We’ve got this. 💙
You should be very proud of yourself Tiffany. Truly inspirational and incredibly brave. My mantra in life, and particularly during my cancer journey, is positivity breeds positivity. I truly believe that a positive outlook is the very best medicine. Keep doing what you are doing and stay positive - but don’t forget to cry too. It’s all part of the process and something I had to learn to do. Somehow, after a good blub the positivity and mental strength grew stronger. You’ve definitely got this!
Tiffany, I am so proud of your spirit and determination to recover and get well. I am also happy you used your voice to let them know the ward was not good for you emotionally. As a nurse a patients privacy means so much for their recovery and piece of mind. ICU and wards are to active. Love you much and appreciate you taking the time while recovering to put these video’s out for us. Love, hugs, prayers to you, Amma & Matt & the rest of the family.
Tiffany. Stay strong. Many prayers for continued health and strength as you recover. Keep smiling beautiful girl🥰
Lovely to see you getting stronger Tiff, onwards and upwards. WE GOT THIS, a lot, a lot, a lot. Xx
Can't wait to see ur vdo of baking
Yeahhh 🙌
Tiff, I’m amazed that you have the drive & strength to keep us posted on your progress. I’m glad you got moved to a place where you feel comfortable. Know that we appreciate you keeping us updated & you are loved. Continuing to pray for you. As I’ve said before, Amma & Matt are angels. I love their sweet, sweet spirits. 💙🙏
I also had a major cancer surgery It's amazing what pain does to your mental health. Oral pain medicine seemed to do better for me than the 2 epidural lines and patient-controlled line. I also had fevers every few days. I was very fortunate. My husband and daughter were as dedicated as your Mother and Matt are . Having them with you makes a huge difference also. You are correct - thinking about how much better you will be as each day dawns. I'm just about a year out, and its all just a not-so-nice memory. Can't wait for you to post that you are back to your lovely self!!! It will be here before you know it!!!
When I first heard you crying and the reason why, it broke my heart. But then to see you so happy to be moved, I let out a deep sigh! I am so happy for you. Mental health is soooo important. Glad the Dr. accomodated you. xoxoxo
I'm very happy you asked for a new room. It's so important to feel comfortable to heal. Very proud of you. Hope your recovery goes well. Love you 💙💙. Amma is the sweetest 💙💙
I can see you looking stronger in each video. So proud of you for advocating for yourself, so very important. Those of us that love you will be here for whenever you feel like posting. Sending you hugs and love. Stay strong.. you have got this! ❤❤❤
I'm so glad they are moving you. Don't ever be afraid to voice how you feel. We love you and only want the best for you. Be strong, we're all here for you.
I’m so happy to see your eyes sparkling again towards the end of the video. I had a tear in my eye when I saw Amma brush your hair. It’s so important to her because you are still her little girl. Glad you were moved. You’ve got this, Tiffany!
I never got the opportunity to prepare for my ileostomy. I underwent what was usually, for me, routine neurosurgery and didn’t wake up for nearly 2 weeks. When I did wake up from a medically induced coma I had the ileostomy in place and was totally unaware that my surgeon made made a “mistake” during my surgery and damaged my colon which caused a leak that led to necrotising fasciitis (flesh eating bacteria) in my abdomen. I spent nearly 6 months in the hospital before my ileostomy was finally reversed. You are dealing with your circumstances like a champ. You will feel better soon, it takes time.
We can see it in your speech and face that you are better. Hugs to you, your mom and Matt. ♥♥♥
We don’t need to see you on the couch, your candles. We’re happy to see you no matter where we are, and no matter where you are if it’s in the hospital just to see your cute little face is enough for us. God bless you and may God keep you strong and may he keep you healthy as you go through this journey❤
I’m so glad you’re starting to recover!!! It was hard watching you be so upset. God bless you Tiffany ❤
You did amazing telling your Doctor what you. needed because you are your best advocate in the hospital.

The girl you are referring to is 'Groovy Chick' I remember having a 'Groovy Chick' pencil case when I was in primary school(I'm 32, so a similar age to you). Praying for your ongoing recovery. Thank you for being such a ray of sunshine to so many people.
