Tiffany, everybody is different but my best friend had brest cancer which metastazed to her left lung. She went through removals two nodules. No chemo, no radiation, neither were an option. Her last surgery was 1992 (guesses our ages lol). She has been cancer free for 31 years. She and her husband adopted two beautiful children (she had to wait five-year with no reoccurrence). Todauy she's happy, healthy, continues to teach part time and has three beautiful grandchildren. She lives in Los Angeles living the face life age. Angelea said she doesn't want one wrinkle or line removed from her face or body. She considers them battle scars. I like to visualize you in a similar scenerio 31 years from now.

I don’t think offering medical advice online is the right thing to do. My husband and I met in medical school, and we don’t give medical advice without seeing the pati 7:30 ent and labs and scans and/or a referral from another doctor. I’m happy for your family.;however, we’ve seen many taking the wrong advice and it shortened their lives. Just a little advice. Love from Kentucky, Lesley and medical service dog Jake.

Tiffany, I'm not sure if you'll see this but I've written before. But I'm a stage 4 lung cancer patient since 2009! My whole left lobe was removed. No oxygen tank is needed, thank God. 2016, it spread to the right. Last August I had ablation due to a tumor pushed pass my target therapy pill. But it worked! You said they were going to do a section removal. That's still good. You will still have great lung mass for breathing. Stop trying to figure out what the doctors are doing or thinking. They haven't let you down at all. Trust them, trust God. I'll continue praying for you 🙏🏾 ❤️

Darling for most of us experiencing stage 4 cancers the greatest fear is death. I finally decided to confront this face to face and in thinking about this over a week decided to share this greatest fear with my family supporters. We have this aired in the open now and are able to move to other fears such as pain and suffering. I don't mean this as anything negative in regard to your reactions and choices. Empathic souls like you who care so much about others and their situation tend to avoid being direct with our families about fears. Sometimes though expressing our fears and questions openly with those nearest can help them just as much ourselves. I love you and hope when you have a plan on the horizon you will have some peace. ❤

Tiffany, I think at some point, it would certainly be beneficial to include a psycho-oncologist into part of your care team. You can safely talk to this person about cancer fear, worries, anxieties, run your thoughts with essentially. This is so that you don't get trapped into your own thoughts, or worry about burdening your family member with your worries. Also sometimes, the psycho-oncologist may direct you to exactly what you need. Please don't worry about asking your doctors how you can get access to psycho-oncologist. I truly think it will ease your anxiety a lot and will definitely be helpful. My mom has access to one, and it helped tremendously in many ways. And also, when it comes to metastatic cancer, think of it as a marathon and not a sprint. Approach the cancer journey like a marathon, and a lot of the thoughts will be shifted accordingly. I hope that helps. Rooting for you. :)

What's the use of prayers? Better to have health suggestions for her. I personally can't understand why Tiffany is never curious enough to do her own research on her condition, not one video, it's always "in the hands of the professionals" who may or may not be competent. ALSO, doctors won't necessarily even MENTION alternatives because that puts their profession on the line, it's the patient who has to suggest it! If you look at the stories of cancer survivors, many of them did their own research too, many made adjustments to their lifestyles or supplements/medication which may be what saved them. People shouldn't just be helplessly drifting in the direction where life takes them, SWIM.

When my mother was going through her cancer journey she always said the “not knowing” was the most difficult part. As long as there was a plan, a road map, she, (like you) could handle anything that came her way. I hope you get a call tomorrow to meet with the surgeon. My feeling is that everything will fall into place and you will have your surgery soon.

Tiffany, all your feelings are valid. My mother had one whole lung removed due to metastatic breast cancer stage 4. She had no chemotherapy after, and has had none since. Her lung removal was almost 21 years ago. She hikes, goes skiing, swimming, everything normal in life plus she works in palliative care and hospice. She did feel a little bit of shortness of breath after but she exercised her way out of it. Her other lung does the work of two. It might be good for you to see a therapist and perhaps some anti anxiety medication for night times. Sending you lots of love ❤️ and prayers 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m sorry that the wait is excruciating. Hospitals are so overwhelmed these days -they are here and there is such a staff shortage. I’m sure that’s the case there. I understand the nighttime anxiety. The fears and depression you are experiencing… I do hope you will speak to your doctor about an antidepressant to help ease these feelings.

That is the incredible help a therapist (who specializes in cancer especially) can provide you. You can have a space to get out all those feelings with someone who has seen others go through this hard stuff. They will help you. You can still share whatever you want with Matt and amma but you can just vent out the anxiety to someone trained to help you. It works. I’m in awe of you and just would love to help lighten your load even a little. We love you, Tiffany. ❤️❤️

I agree counseling or a support group could be helpful. I just started participating in a colorectal cancer support group, even though my treatments ended three years ago. There were no support groups during Covid. She needs to be able to have a dialogue in real time with other cancer patients.

Tiffany, I’ve been following you for quite some time. I’m a fellow rectal cancer patient. One observation I’ve made over the many months I’ve followed you is that you go through cycles of worry, mostly because (or so it seems to me) you have many unknowns and unanswered questions. I don’t know if your doctors are poor communicators or if they take too long to develop a plan or if you are challenged understanding what they are telling you. But it seems like there’s a communication gap that needs to be resolved.

Tiffany don't feel bad to share your thoughts, even the dark ones, with your loved ones. My dad and uncle fought their mental battles mostly alone, wanting to spare our feelings but it just made me and the others sad they didn't let us share the burden for as much as we can. I do think that the results you have are still something to be optimistic about. Planning surgery on your lungs means they're leaving nothing up to chance. These surgeries take a lot of time to plan though in comparison to radiation/chemo for example. So, try to look at the waiting time as time invested in creating the best plan. Easy for me to say of course but I hope it helps a bit. Big hug

When I was dealing with the stress in the aftermath of a uterine cancer diagnosis, hysterectomy, job stresses & caring for an elderly parent on top of the usual things, I started walking in the evening after dinner & the dishes were done. I walked 2 miles every night (I had a dog at that time & she enjoyed it a lot) in usually about 30 minutes, so I walked at fast pace. It was my "me time" & I so looked forward to just walking in solitude & getting my stress of the day worked out. I'm glad to hear you're taking walks, it really does help both mentally & physically.

Hey Tiffany, what I love about your channel is that not only does most everyone support you in your journey, but they also support each other in whatever others maybe going through. The anxieties that you’ve been having while waiting for answers from your medical team regarding your surgery that’s completely normal. You should always feel comfortable talking with your loved ones when you’re getting anxious. You will have emotional moments and that’s completely okay. Know you are well loved and we will always be here to support you through your journey.

Tiffany--I learned a long time ago to be an advocate for myself and my family. Doctors don't seem to realize the anxiety a patient is going through and yours may be a less serious case than other patients they are dealing with. Still no excuse for them--but I always reached out to them if I thought a fair amount of time went by--both my father and brother had cancer. My father lived to be 94 with cancer and treatments in various organs My brother is one year into his journey. It is only fair to know what is going on and not let your imagination get the worst of you. Let your family in to help. We are only human. You don't have to be strong all by yourself.

Writing daily in my journal was therapeutic and became important, It allowed me to release all my fears on paper. It was freeing and somewhat cleansing -- like taking a long hot shower. Tiffany,... Do things that bring you JOY. Happiness is fleeting but JOY endures. JOY is lasting!

What you’re feeling is normal and there your feelings, no one can tell you how to feel. Trust the plan, process, it’s so slow, I get it! Stay as positive as you can, that’s all you can do… I’ll be praying for you. The waiting is aweful, I know… I’m so sorry you have to go through this too.❤️

Dear sweet Tiffany, I have a daughter who is close to your age and I have been watching your videos for a year now. I have come to care so much about you. I see a very wise, thoughtful, loving person who is doing her very best to remain positive and faithful throughout this difficult year. I have prayed for your complete healing and I will continue to ask our Lord to shower you with blessings and heal you through and through. I watch with much admiration as you try so hard to remain so positive and as you try not to burden Amma and Matt. What a kind, loving soul you are and so very brave too. I know your family is so very proud of the person that you are. Tonight it struck me that your voice and your choice of words puts me in mind of Cinderella. You talk just like a princess!! Your voice and tone is always so sweet and caring. I know right now you are so caught up with worry about what the doctor will say about surgery, which I understand, but I wanted you to see from another mother's perspective what a beautiful, special person you are. Your family is so blessed to have you in their lives and all of us in your Tiffany Thinks family are blessed as well. I truly believe that everything is going to turn out just fine for you and the surgery will be completely successful. Much love Tiffany!

Tiffany, please know that your family thinks the same things you are thinking, but of course they are not going to share it with you and make things worse. My dear, I am currently in treatment for triple negative breast cancer for the 2nd time (first time was in 2018), and things are not looking great for my long-term prognosis, so I completely empathize with the ongoing anxiety of the unknown. Sometimes it drives me nearly mad. My greatest concern is for my husband and son because I know the stress they are going through and how completely useless and powerless they feel. They would never bring those fears up to me though, because what would that help? They are afraid of losing me as much as I am afraid of losing them. They understand my beloved Tiffany, even if they don't share those fears. I so hope you get through to your doctors soon, as I agree, the waiting is always torturous, especially when they say they will call and they don't. AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH! Thinking of you with love and hope and strength!
