00:00So I've followed your mum Angie on social media for a long time and her positivity
00:05her positive mental attitude and her faith in alternative treatments
00:09is all
00:10always been, you know, really sort of powerful. The trouble is...
00:15Yeah
00:16Do you think it prevented her coming forward?
00:20Sooner to find out because to find a tumour that is 30 centimetres...
00:25That has been growing for a long time, hasn't it?
00:28I completely agree. There's...
00:30There's a...
00:31I think now in hindsight she...
00:35I really wish she had thought it could be that sooner, right?
00:39I think that she didn't...
00:40I don't want to believe it could be the case when she prides herself in being so...
00:45healthy...
00:46So...
00:47Sharing of wellness that...
00:49That...
00:50It...
00:50It wouldn't happen to her.
00:51And I remember even at one point we were speaking about it months and months ago.
00:54She said something...
00:55Everything's not right.
00:56But it's going to just be this and that.
00:57So I said, look, please let's go...
00:59Get checked.
01:00She went in to speak to a homeopath and they said, oh, it's Lyme's disease.
01:04Here's some herbs.
01:05Here's some tinctures.
01:06So they misdiagnosed it.
01:07Yeah.
01:08Somebody got...
01:09Respectfully...
01:10Something wasn't...
01:10Isn't seen.
01:11And there's no pointing any fingers, of course.
01:13But she said, okay, I'll take the herbs.
01:15And the tinctures, which she prides herself in.
01:17And then it wasn't getting better.
01:19And then finally I saw...
01:20I saw her one day and I said, we have to.
01:21So we went in and I think we found it quite late, to be fair, you know?
01:25And we found the size of this thing.
01:26And even then my mom wants to...
01:28Wanted to go down this...
01:30alternative route.
01:31And you reached this point where you have to trust the medical professionals and the
01:35advice...

01:36And you'll...
