Not convinced why Amma would be worrying too much about her EX being in an ambulance … what a strange thought process.
Patient transport ambulances aren’t exactly lights and siren affairs! Who really cares if it’s a train, a taxi, a tuk tuk or a bus … least of all an ambulance. So much time spent repeating infantile sentences and staring into space.
Amma is going along for the ride home with Tiffany …
Matt will be at home waiting.
Priceless !!!

You forgot "How much would you pay for this? and "What would you rate it out of 10?" and "I'll just have a little bite and have more later."
To be honest, I did a really big card first but then thought it was a bit OTT. I made the smaller one and forgot to put tick tick tick on it! . There is endless scope for random cards so everyone can play

Jenny Apple has an update, I must say her team seem to be right on top of everything.

it might also be why she's padded the last couple of weeks with hospital vlogs?

And it's horrible for her if she did get bad news. I couldn't imagine going thru that surgery to be told well, it didn't really work. But it's also ridiculous that her history of drawing things out and not giving any information or worthy updates on her channel make it so that everyone has to speculate how she's doing. Why the secrecy with results in almost every video she puts out? Results are a HUGE part of a cancer journey, it's what you fight for, having clear scans or treatment progress. And we never really hear the outcomes as a straightforward statement, it's always a round about answer or saying she'll address it later but never does...it's amazing really.

Agreed. She has never explained any of her results in a clear and comprehensive way. She explains results like a child who does not understand what they are talking about.

I've just been told one of my friends has bile duct/liver cancer. GP has been throwing antibiotics at her for weeks. She was called into hospital and told yesterday, utterly gutting.
Scratchy < I feel awful calling you that but felt better than ‘ratty’.
I’m genuinely sorry to read this. I understand how that feels. My husband was ignored for a couple of years, and was treated for urine infections, suspected IBS etc. I finally got very upset and demanded something was done and shockingly 24 hours later we was told he had cancer. His GP ticked boxes and his symptoms didn’t flag because “kidney cancer is rare in under 30’s”, well, he was in the rare category. Not long after we was told it was incurable because it had spread quite widespread. It’s just heartbreaking and I know there are many many that’s experienced this.
I hope your friends has been caught early? Whatever he/she does, ignore Dr Google stats because they are out of date! The treatment landscape is quickly changing and stats are much kinder. I’m sure you’ll give good support. Your friend is in my thoughts. p.s I highly recommend maggies centres, many of the Facebook support groups but specific to type and a charity called Yes to life.

Thanks Saydee. We have no idea yet about how advanced it is, and whether they can operate. She hasn't told her husband yet, what an awful situation for them both. It's such a shock. I'll pass on your info as soon as she is ready to talk.

Scratty this is what my ex MIL was diagnosed with right before Christmas. The mass is small but it is in between where the two ducts branch off so she was told it's unresectable. There are no other sites of disease though. After two tries they finally got a biopsy that was yay ... inconclusive. But clinically it is a bile duct cancer. She is 78 and already has neuropathy, and she agreed to comfort care only. It breaks my heart that we could not throw something, ANYTHING at that little tumor. She goes to her PCP every 6 months, everything was fine last August. It's a effing sneaky nasty cancer, often without symptoms until the bile duct gets blocked and the jaundice starts. I am so sorry that your friend was diagnosed. I hope she is a candidate for treatment... Gemzar and Cisplatin (chemo) + Immunotherapy (then radiation and surgery) is the most recent treatment being offered for some of these biliary cancers. Gentle hugs to both of you.

I'm sorry, that's rough Last year my friend was being treated for a pulled muscle in her side for months, she went to Dr. complaining of pain. Turns out she had liver cancer, they never found where it metastasized from so they treated her with non specific chemo (or whatever it's called), but it's sad that things get missed and you always wonder if they would have caught the bad stuff earlier if it would have made a difference.

Yep, she has had jaundice for weeks and the GP thought she had hepatitis. The itching also. I don't understand why they miss these things, but it is supposed to be rare. My friend is 60, and full of life. I just hope they can do something. Thanks for the info.

How much would you pay for this ambulance ride home? Not too bumpy or to forcefully on the breaks?

A bit concerning the update on Jenny. New very small lesions on the brain,

Yes, more lesions is not good, but they have seen them and have a plan. Everything crossed.

The lesions are really small. The size of a sharpened pencil tip.

I think Jenny Apple is an absolutely delightful person. Beautiful. Kyle is perfect for her. He loves her so much and is such a strong man.

Just saw the newest posts by Petrina Barber. This woman is incredible. She even has a picture with her new stoma bag. And the way she speaks just shows so much strength. Really good vibes from this woman.

How different to T, two weeks post op and she's showing her stoma bag. T is 8 weeks post op and she's just about to show the homecoming video.

There is a massive difference. One is an intelligent adult with a lot of life experience, the other a 30 year old baby using words like BUM BUM and FRONT BUM.
