can we talk about how genuinely GORGEOUS Morgan is??? makeup, no makeup, scrubbing makeup off her face? doesn’t matter. she literally is so pretty. hearing her say she has such bad body dysmorphia just proves that we’re all too judgmental of ourselves because she. is. stunning. i love you Morgan!! thank you for always making me feel seen and that i’m not alone. hoping for a speedy recovery!! much love XX
I have it too and have no idea how she can post videos of herself if she really does have it. I only show half my face in all my pics lmao. And I'd loooove to look like her.
As a nursing student, I firmly believe you have to be your own advocate. If you have a concern do NOT let them turn you away that easily. People die because healthcare providers think people are being dramatic or using google to diagnose themselves, when that is often not the case. Good for you that you pushed for the biopsy. Hoping for the best outcome for you!!
this is so true... though i have diagnosed several serious things correctly through google... like endometriosis 13 yrs ago before like anyone had really heard of it, i did EXTENSIVE research so its not for everyone but if you have the research skills i say google away, just be very discerning. Point is the OBGYN i went to and had to BEG for the surgery to diagnose it was convinced i was just wanting surgery for drugs (what a freakin JERK! i dont even do drugs!) low and behond the a hole had to apologize cuz what did he find??? endo~freakin~metriosis. boom. ALWAYS ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF!!!
Yasss so true. I think it’s not even the doctors that are not wanting to care fore you but just so so many things can go wrong that how would they ever check everything unless people can guide them in the right direction😭 I’m glad I didn’t offend the doctors of RUclips lol I would never want to discredit anyone’s education so thank you for this comment 💕
Right!! The moment you mention “Google” you are discredited. Yes there is bogus information on the web but thinking I just believe whatever I read is very degrading. I ALWAYS make sure it comes from a reputable source.
It's disgusting how often this happens to women. I told my doctor THREE times maybe even more, "I feel like I'm dead. I've never felt this horrible in my entire life. These are not allergies. I don't get them. Never have." He literally laughed at me, thinking I was being dramatic, and then said "allergies can happen to anyone. You don't have strep, so it must be allergies." I didn't have allergies, and that moron made me leave with a box of Claritin. Not to mention when I was in first grade, I was complaining about a stomach ache. I was in terrible pain, and the doctor said I had strep, which made no sense, and another doctor said I was just faking it to get out of school. Cut to me almost dying because I had appendicitis. It was about to explode and at the age and size I was, they said it would have killed me if they didn't remove it in time.
Hey Morgan! I used to work as a medical assistant in dermatology. I recommend keeping your incision site moist with Aquaphor everyday until it heals! It help prevent scarring. Also once it starts to heal (it'll look like new pink skin), you can start massaging the area every day and applying silicone to the area and that will prevent it from scarring ugly too. Hope that helps. xoxo
Lol thank you. I worked as a Medical Assistant in Dermatology for almost 5 years… I had so many comments to the video lol. I use to laugh when I’d watch medical shows with my ex husband who would get so into what they were doing wrong…. I’ve felt that in my bones today watching this video 😂
You have probably saved a life here girl, no joke. We all get crappy doctors - so you spoke to advocating but also to remind us to get checked! Thanks Morgan ! I am hoping for a speedy recovery. Please update us when you can - thank you for being so transparent.
advocating for your health is SO important and thank god you did this! doctors are becoming more busy having more patients than ever and most just dont or cant take the time to be doing THOROUGH exams. also with this next generation of doctors coming up who, like me, have a life consumed of social media its just going to get worse. ALWAYS ADVOCATE FOR YOUR HEALTH!
I work for a Mohs surgeon and I promise your scar will get better! Don’t become discouraged it takes a lot of time and you will see a lot of different phases. So proud of you 💕Please everyone get your annual skin checks!!!
I’ve had melanoma twice. I had to ask the doctor both times to remove the moles to get removed to be checked after they said they looked “fine”. Good job being persistent!
I went to the dermatologist because of you. I was concerned about a mole for a year, and they were concerned enough to test it. Skin cancer runs in my family. Haven’t figured out what it is yet, but thank you. I hope you have a speedy recovery, physically and mentally ❤ “It’s not funny.” After me making fun of the bad situations I can’t control in my life. I completely get it. If it makes you feel better, a kid commented on my stretch marks when I was in 6th grade. He thought I self harmed when they were just a ton of stretch marks. I completely stopped wearing shorts to school after that. I also have this chronic Illness called Pots. Through out the years a few kids asked why my legs are very red/purple. It’s a circulation problem.
I also don't wear shorts because of my circulation problem with my legs. They swell all the time and I get very uncomfortable if anyone can see my legs. Which also means no swimming either. I've had swollen legs since I was 19 yrs old and I'm now 36 yrs old 😢 I freaking hate it so much...I just want normal looking legs 🦵 🥲
I suspect I have pots. Sometimes my legs go like that. I think you just confirmed it lol. The other day my knees literally looked purple, and I was like wtf?! Thank you. I have other chronic illnesses that can cause pots btw. 💗🏴
It's so disturbing that you had a melanoma and the doctor tried to just tell you you're fine. Women are gaslit so much by medical professionals. I'm proud of you for advocating for yourself! I wish you wouldn't have had to.
I’m a dermatology medical assistant and I’m so glad you’re getting treated and bringing awareness to melanoma and annual skin exams !! And please find a derm that you like and trust because they’re out there!! I hope you’re feeling okay morgan!! Also they’re stopping the bleeding by burning when you hear the “zzzzzz” every time… sorry!!!!! It’s called electrocautery
Okay but why cant we be put to sleep for this kind of surgery? Im autistic and have sensory issues. I would ignore all signs of cancer until its too late to avoid this.
@@candidavis1061you might be able to! It would definitely be worth asking a dermatologist about!! But typically they don’t because it’s done with a local anesthetic but you might be able to find resources to help you!
I’m always amazed at how beautiful Morgan is and aside from physically she is seems like the coolest person to hang with. Im sure the people in her life appreciate her because you can’t just find a Morgan anywhere.
Also if you are on the heavier side never let the doctor weight shame you into making you think it's weight causing your problems granted weight does cause issues but again everyone knows their body's. So if something doesn't feel like it's weight related rather feels like something to cause for alarm demand a doctor to take you serious & never allow them to weight shame you bottom line..
Morgan thanks to you…I am now in the process for testing a possible skin cancer on my face.I’m 50 and noticed a weird bunch of puffy growths on the side of my face near the jaw. I’ve had bone cancer and was run over by a van before so I’m not as scared as I would normally be …but I truly have you to thank because your video made me rethink what I was ignoring. Awaiting the results now and I’m off to watch your video.Much hugs and love ❤❤
In 2020 I ended up having a full hysterectomy at 27 years old with full on uteran cancer because I was “too young” to have it removed any sooner. It had to be deadly for them to actually remove it. And STILL IT WAS LIKE PULLING TEETH to get anyone to listen to me. ALWAYS advocate for yourself. You’re the only one who can. ❤
Hi Morgan! Thyroid removed here! I didn't want to have a massive scar in my throat, so the doc told me to cover if with 3M medical tape for some months 😮 to protect it from UV Ray's in order to avoid pigmentation, and that I applied sunscreen lotion once fully healed. I'd say it worked pretty well. Big hugs!!
I just had my thyroid scan and bloodwork. Apparently not Hashimoto's but I'm still keeping an eye on it because I already have Lupus (they're comorbid). BioOil and Polysporin work well too. I have scratches from my rabbits/Lupus cyst marks.
As someone who's had 5 basal cell carcinomas in the last 12 months, I hope they actually scheduled a full-body exam for you. Also, 100% appreciate your humor even though you clearly want to have have a gd hissy fit. Me too girl. Me too
i CANNOT stress just how important advocating for yourself and your health is because the amount of times that doctors have just glanced over something that can be fatal to someone is just ridiculous and happens far too often
You are a true inspiration to women and men alike! Thank you for sharing your very personal journey. My dad found spots on his skin and waited too long to get it checked and it was too late and the cancer had spread to his internal organs. He passed March of 2020 and I try to spread awareness to anyone who might spend a lot of time outside in the sun to always wear sunscreen and be aware of your body and if you notice anything out of the ordinary, tell your doctor and get it checked out. A small mole can turn into melanoma and be cancerous and just a small non descript pigmentation can turn deadly. God bless you for spreading awareness to those who might have the same issue or something similar. You're a damn hero and I'm praying for your swift recovery and CANCER FREE DIAGNOSIS. I seriously, as corny as it may seem, think of you as family and I would be devastated if anything happened to you or anyone else in the fam. You're so brave and my prayers are with you and yours. Love you Morgan! The sister I wish I had! But my honorary sister you are!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have had between 12-18 biopsies per year for my “moles”. During one of my visits last year I had to pay to have one removed from my nose, that was the only cancerous one. ALWAYS ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF!
As someone with OCD hypocondria and anxiety, your perspectives your humor make me feel so much better! Please always stay you. Best of luck to you, its all ganna be ok❤
Morgan, I'm 23 years old and have been dealing with cervical cancer. I know how mentally exhausting it all can be. Definitely not the same procedures, but the mental ups n downs you go through from it are similar. I had abnormal cell growth, and we had to get it all out. Been recovering well and I'm sure you will too! You're strong, beautiful, kind, hilarious, and just an overall joy. So keep your head up and heart strong n you'll get thru anything and everything ❤💜💙💛🧡💚 just wanna let you know you're not alone n you are very much valuedd
More women need to discuss this. It’s so important we get checked, and in UK they don’t go as early as we do in the states. I had my surgeries in my 20’s as well. ❤️ Healing thoughts your way.
I had cervical cancer when I was 25 I had to have a full hysterectomy and they did more testing thank God I was fine afterwards. I am one of the lucky ones.
Hey love, also dealing with cervical cancer at 23 and will need a hysterectomy. It really sucks and is so scary bc a hysterectomy so young can have severe health issues :/ wishing you the best 🫶
I’m 23 and had major surgery a few months ago, I have a 22cm incision line from my belly button straight up my stomach so I relate so much to now having this big scar on me forever but you get used to it so quickly and it’s just a reminder that you survived that! Congratulations on getting through it and advocating for yourself!
Hi ❤ at 15 I was diagnosed with bone cancer and went through chemo and had my left leg amputated. No matter the size of the scar, it’s still hard to see those permanent changes in our bodies. At ten years cancer free I got a beautiful flower tattoo to cover my Iva’s scar and the other scars that aren’t covered I try to still embrace. Don’t be afraid to acknowledge how you feel about the situation and it will help you heal not just physically but mentally too. You are beautiful ❤
Girl. I live near you, and you convinced me to get my skin checked as I also have questionable moles. Especially in this Colorado sunshine! Just booked my appt so thank you!
I've always loved your freckles! I have a ton too & my mom used to tell me that our freckles/moles were spots where angels kissed us before we were born. I do think that most people don't see/pay attention to what we're the most self-conscious about, but it's still hard to ignore so it's awesome that you're embracing them!
Morgan I just want to thank you for being so open and honest about this, my mother passed away from skin cancer caused by HPV, and awareness and regular check-ups are one of the most important thing one can do. I wish you a fast and easy recovery
My mom is currently in surgery removing a bug nasal cell skin cancer spot on her cheek. 😢 Sunscreen especially from convenience stores have terrible ingredients in, making it worse. Seed oils (canola, vegetable, etc) is found in darn near everything now… chips, granola bars, etc. and those oils deep out of the skin making it worse with the sun. And sunglasses too playing tricks with our body’s natural rhythm eyes in communication with our brain. So much I’ve been unlearning the past 4 years because we aren’t properly taught. Everything is hidden and ingredients that should be illegal fill our stores aisles. So much love to you as I feel for you a fraction as I’m in this with my mom currently. So much love! ❤
Advocating for your health is so important I'm so thankful you listened to your body and pushed for the testing you needed!!! I was really sick back in 2005 I eventually went to get tested for diabetes the doctor told my I didn't have it. My body and my gut told me he was wrong. I went to the ER the next day where not only was I diagnised with Type 1 Diabetes I was told if I had waited just one more day to come in I would have gone into a diabetic coma. Sharing your story will definitely help others advocate for their help thank you so much for sharing 💜💜💜
This is a reminder that you’re going to be okay and perspective is everything. The mole is gone now and the scar will heal and fade. I’ve had 6 major surgeries where I was actually sedated and I remember 4 of them (I was 3yrs old for the first). Your scar isn’t that big and it will be okay. The last 4 surgeries I had were all within 9 months of each other in 2020 and within the first two years all 4 scars blended in with the other skin almost 100%. I had a 3 MONTH recovery for both elbows (each) where I couldn’t lift anything, even my rabbit, and the hands took 2 months (same restrictions). You’re very lucky that you don’t have those type of restrictions. I couldn’t even cook for myself or wipe with the recovering arm when each one was healing. I literally had to learn to wipe left handed & I have mobility issues so it was beyond difficult. Two of the scars that I have (faded nicely) are both on my palms and about the same side as your new one. My other two are legitimately about 6-7 inches on my elbows. They’ve healed nicely too and I didn’t do anything special to help them heal, it’s a little vitamin E cream daily. My 5th is also healed and faded but 32 years ago the surgeons didn’t care about scarring, so I genuinely look like I’ve had a c-section, cut from hip to hip. I don’t care though because F- what others think. My 6th was last year and I was misdiagnosed, so my gallbladder got removed when it didn’t need to (and in Canada we can’t sue fyi). Those 3 incisions are 1” each and they’re healing nicely too. They’re thick scars though, but worrying about their appearance won’t help me. I do understand your fear and anxiety. I acknowledge that. I do also need to say that if you’re not going right now, therapy is probably necessary for you. Your obsession with looking good to the point where you’re actually freaking out over a surgery where you weren’t sedated & it was in-office (minor) is quite over the top. It’s unhealthy to be that level of upset over an in-office non-sedated procedure. You survived, your skin will heal, the scar will fade. The reason I’m finding this video quite dramatic is that you’ll have a quick recovery time too, on top of everything I mentioned. I understand that you don’t have the perspective of having major surgeries & you’re 10 years younger. It’s also not like you were told you need chemo either. Cancer is a scary word, but dwelling on it won’t help your mental state. I don’t care to play the “who had it worse game”; I’m trying to give you perspective. Changing your mindset will help you tremendously in life. My last perspective is that: I live with a neurological degenerative disease and an autoimmune arthritis (also degenerative) where it affects all my joints, especially my spine. Instead of wallowing in self pity, I remind myself that even thought I do “have it bad”, it also could be significantly worse. I will remind myself that I could be paralyzed, or I could be bed-ridden, or I could be blind… there are so many hardships out there that mine is something that I can survive with. I remind myself that I have pain management (a lot of people don’t), I’m getting care to manage (not cure) my diseases. Sh!t could be far worse. I could sit at home, take disability and not work, and dwell in loneliness & pain, but I make the conscious choice daily to get up & try. The ONLY way to mentally survive any hardship is to BE POSITIVE. For you, remind yourself that at least you’re not dying, at least you don’t need chemo, at least it’s a quick recovery, and at least it was caught in time. You’re going to be okay. Stay Positive & don’t dwell. You’ll be okay.
My mom had basal cell carcinoma right under her lower lash line. Luckily all of her drs were women and no scaring or anything.She had a full blown panic attack during the procedure and they were so great to her. I hop you're doing good Morgan ❤
Thank you so much Morgan. If you find you really hate your scar, Google dainty little wildflower tattoo. I’ve seen so many ladies scars covered in this way and it’s so feminine. Wildflowers are way more tougher than they look - just like us. I’m so proud of you.
For a while I was really sad about having 3 scars on my stomach after my surgeries. After a while I almost started appreciating them. They are a part of my story. There might be more one day and I learned to be okay with that. I hope you can either love your scar or have it fixed, whatever works best ❤
You from what you show handled this a lot better than myself . I had skin cancer just 4 months ago and up to my surgery I was acting like it was the end of the world , ofc it could always be worse but that was such a difficult situation and painful at that
Morgan, I love how close you are with your grandmother. I am too lol. Anyways, I have been feeling rough lately because I start school tomorrow. You cheered me up! Have a good day Morgan and good luck with your life! You are my youtuber bestie! 💕
7:34 is the best advice for any doctor appointment. Every wellness check I go to I write a list of things I'm worried about. This saved my life cuz I had a 50% chance of thyroid cancer.
Thank you for sharing! Because of you I had a weird spot on my forehead checked out. Still waiting to hear back but it’s a relief to have done something about it! So thank you! And you truly are beautiful!
Morgan thank you so much for sharing your experience. Because of you I set up a dermatology appointment for a skin check. I have a few questionable spots that I had been afraid to acknowledge but you eased a lot of my fears and made me feel like I wasn't alone. Thanks for helping me find the courage to make the appointment.
Hey Morgan! I also had melanoma removed and had to go back for a second surgery to “clear the margins”. When I went back, they also removed some lymph nodes under my armpit because they tested positive for cancer as well. I then had a PET scan of my whole body to check if it had spread anywhere else. I’m in Canada, so they might do things differently here - but you should maybe get a second opinion from another dermatologist. I haven’t had any reoccurrence and have been cancer free for over 13 years… but still am constantly checking to see if my “freckles” are changing.
I’ve had a contractor ruin my house Morgan. We just listed the finished property and it sold in ONE DAY! Im sending that energy to you. Finish the house! We all 🥰
Hey Morgan! I was just recently diagnosed with breast cancer at age 22 so I know how you feel 😢 it’s really scary and unbelievable but we got this. I’m happy to hear yours doesn’t seem to have spread and that all you need is surgery! I have a port placed that will leave a scar on my chest and will have to get a double mastectomy. Your scar looks amazing and you are beautiful and strong. You got this girl ❤
Hi Morgan, I had the same surgery in March, I feel you, I try and tell myself at least they found it and I’m still here, cause it can be deadly, thinking of you have a great week 😀❤️
Thank you so much for the video,I really appreciate it. I have been on chemo on and off for 11 years and I have been warned with my family history I'm most likely to get skin cancer and now I have moles appearing out of nowhere and growing fast that I need to get checked and I'm terrified,I bawl in tears everytime I look at them and you're giving me courage to go to the doctor. Thank you please keep us updated and I hope you feel better soon physically and mentally.
I’m so glad this is something that’s shared. Cancer is scary and I think it’s very important to talk about it to lessen the fear. Cancer took away my 20s, my education and my career I dreamed of. I had thyroid cancer (now I have hyperthyroidism!!). I shared all of it and it somehow made it less scary. Thank you Morgan for sharing your journey ❤️
I've struggled the past 7 years with so many kinds of doctors trying to figure out what's wrong with me and my chronic pain. I'm so glad you were persistent and found the answers you needed! 💜
I'm so sorry to hear that. I've gone through the same thing. What's your symptoms and what have they tested you for yet? I may be able to suggest them to test for
@@progers018 moderate- severe knee (sometimes hip) pain. Shoulder, neck, and upper back pain. It will sort of 'flare up' I haven't really found a pattern yet except for cold weather apparently. I had an MRI of my cervical spine, saw a rheumatologist and was tested for the common autoimmune conditions and checked for RA. I've had general blood screens which ofc were normal. I wanted to get tested for Lyme but my doc kind of blew it off
As a chronic pain patient of 23 years, my thoughts are with you. I'm so glad I finally found a pain doctor - I was so tired of doctors looking at me sideways or treating me as though it was all in my head.
I had cardiac surgery at 20 and multiple resuscitation attempts causing me to have many scars on not only my chest but my body and it is an adjustment many tears have been shed knowing they will be there forever and ill never have my old body back so thank you for sharing your journey and being so candid with you audience ❤️
Wishing you a speedy recovery! Don't use neosporin, my surgeon says it causes more scarring. Also, I bring earplugs in so I don't have to hear all the funky noises.
I'm half your surgery went well. I just started going to a dermatologist and I got a "full body check" and they didn't look at anything. Glanced at my back, and the spots that were worrying me on my face, and breast. I'm on a skin clearing journey right now to. Everything is going well, but I have a lot of scarring. Your skin has been looking awesome recently. Thanks for being so open, and showing us everything, even the scar. Cause I was like you said, I wanted to see it.
I had the same surgery to remove skin cancer, except it was on my scalp and close to my ear. Nothing can quite prepare you for listening to your scalp being cut off, cauterised and then sewn back together. I went to my doctors twice, being told it was a age wart (I’m only 25) and then a cyst. I also went to a dermatologist not believing what my GP had told me, they recommended to get it checked by a cosmetic surgeon. Anyway… I guess as you said, always trust your own body and push for your own advocation when you feel something isn’t right. Hope everything is healing nicely for you and sending best wishes 💗
This is gonna sound terrible but like Arby’s is good trashy food lol. Like if ima eat something bad for me Arby’s is pretty good. I always end up sick tho!
Omg Morgan you have changed so much I’ve been watching your videos since way back and girl you look STUNNING like a whole ass baddie I almost didn’t recognize you cause of how much as changed over the years but hopefully you get better soon cancer is never permanent never give up 💓!
Girl, I feel your pain! I always protect my skin. I always have sunblock on. Out of nowhere I get a mole thats black and surrounded by jagged brown. The dermatologist asked why I was concerned...Hello! It's two colors! She finally removes it and it comes back concerning. I wish you quick healing and beautiful porcelain skin. You got this!
Bye Norma , you have done an amazing thing sharing all you cancer process, we all try to take care of sun damage but it goes to show it’s possible even with sunscreen. Sending you a huge gentle hug 🤗. Take care x
Morgan thank you for being so vulnerable with us! I really love your content. I hope all heals well and you’re cancer free!! ALSO*** you can use Emu Oil on your scar when it heals, and it’s AMAZING!! It helps with redness and size.
Hey Morgan! So that buzzing you heard during your procedure is what is called cauterizing. It is used for many things in surgery, but in this case it was likely to stop bleeding by burning and essentially sealing small blood vessels that had to cut during the procedure. I'm so glad this issue is over for you! And especially that you are okay! Thank you for spreading awareness about not only skin cancer, but also about advocating for yourself! And thank you for making me laugh so much! ❤
You are gorgeous! That scar is pretty badass too. Hope the recovery is quick🙏 Thanks for urging people to see a dermatologist! We have a year waiting list in some parts of the UK unless you go private which sucks but I'm on it 😅 x
So real man!I had been having really bad pain on my side and lower stomach and my primary doctor said it’s just stress and IBS.Turns out it was a cancerous tumor in the center of my spleen which resulted in me having to have my whole spleen removed.SECOND OPINIONS ARE ALWAYS IMPORTANT YALL!!!!✨
Appreciate you so much for sharing this with us. ❤ and word to the girls, please ask your doctors all the questions you have about any issue. Don't feel pressure to hurry up your appointment and never feel like you're a burden or like you're wasting someone's time. Your life is important. Ask away! Love, fellow anxiety girl ✌😊
I’ve been putting off a skin check for years now since getting an abnormal mole removed…just checked my own skin & will be making an appointment tomorrow morning!! Thank you for sharing.
I also think social media is so much WORSE for kids these days. We grew up comparing ourselves to models and now all of us adults are creating these “highlight reels” for literal 12 year olds to compare themselves too. I just feel so bad that my 8 year old niece feels any pressure to look like a 25 year old. What can we do to help the next generation of little girls *actually* feel comfortable in their body?
I’ve been hearing from a lot of dermatologists and they’ve been saying skin cancer most likely doesn’t even come from the sun, it comes from our diet and the foods we eat 🤯 stay safe out there ya’ll, make good choices!
Ipray everything goes his from here on out with your health and you are so freaking pretty! Love your vibes since day one of me running into your videos! 💜Girl the growing up love is insane still to me. I'm having a horrible prep day today for a freaking colonoscopy tomorrow morning bc my Dr is concerted after looking up my butthole and then Thursday I'll be getting a heart monitor for a month plus obgyn Dr stuff bc horrible irregular bleeding... after seeing so many people my age have stuff happening and with one who recently passed from cancer and leaving behind her little boy and husband and seeing her last videos and hearing how strong she was motivated me even more to take my health more important especially for my 4 kids so I'm around as long as I can to watch them grow and be their for big moments in their lives🩵🩷🩵🩷
I’m so proud of you for getting checked out. So many people think “oh, it’ll never be me” and boom. I get double endoscopies every 5 years as stomach and colon cancers run in my family. Better safe than sorry! ❤❤
ive followed you for so long bestie, so happy you got that taken care of! you will rock it like everything else in your wonderful messy life. I'm sending you clear skin vibes! Also so pretty make up and no make up, so so so pretty.
Listen, Grandma is so precious I could just cry everytime I see her. She reminds me of my grandma I lost last year to Leukemia. & my dad went w me to get my mole cut out of me too & I was only numbed not put out either. The deeper she got, the more I felt 😭 I’m praying for you sugar ♥️
It's a shame that doctors never tell people that sugar literally feeds cancer cells. Girl, that scar is a victory scar...wear that ish proudly. Your beautiful
22:48 A few years ago I cut my leg open on a broken box spring from an old mattress. The scar I got from that was really noticeable. I was insecure about it for awhile, but somewhere between year 1 one and year 2 after that happened, the purple color finally faded into a pearly white. I grew to like it a lot more than I thought I ever would.
I've had the same issue with my moles since I was young. My mom would call them "beauty marks" and that made me feel so much better about them. I now say the same thing to my daughter.
I hope you heal good!! I literally got a tattoo from the song you showed. It’s another added sign that I needed it. Also when you got diagnosed I ended up getting a skin check and had 2 suspicious moles removed but luckily we got them just in time. So thank you for motivating me to get them checked. 💜
Poor baby - love ya so much - body dysmorphia, well I’m nearly 60 and suffer from it still!! I was on a morning show tv excerpt where I won some clothes that had to be chosen by a fashion expert - annnyway what came out of it waaaaas that I have body dysmorphia - well, who knew but now I know life just isn’t any easier!!! But yea once you know it at some point it does kinda make life more understandable, and with menopause happening well the weight stacking on - you can’t imagine!!! Anyway I wanted to say your skin is looking amazing and have you explored hyrams channel - he started me on a journey to expel my sons acne and it worked amazingly - inkey list, the ordinary cereve moisturiser, all really fantastic products. And yes changing your pillowcases and make up brushes on a regular is so so sooo important!!! Anyway the scar is horrendous but in time to come it will fade so don’t worry at alllll, love ya.
Love you so so much. That’s all ❤️❤️❤️
LITERALLY WOKE UP TODAY AND ASKED THE UNIVERSE FOR A MORGAN VIDEO 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
love u😭💘
Oh Morgan I feel you on the titty I have breast cancer and getting a mastectomy in December 🥹
Much love to you Morgan 💖
We love you right back Morgan! 🤎
can we talk about how genuinely GORGEOUS Morgan is??? makeup, no makeup, scrubbing makeup off her face? doesn’t matter. she literally is so pretty. hearing her say she has such bad body dysmorphia just proves that we’re all too judgmental of ourselves because she. is. stunning. i love you Morgan!! thank you for always making me feel seen and that i’m not alone. hoping for a speedy recovery!! much love XX
So agree with you
Agreed💞
Seriously, right. The most attractive thing about her is, she doesn’t know it.
The most factual statement to ever exist💖
I have it too and have no idea how she can post videos of herself if she really does have it. I only show half my face in all my pics lmao. And I'd loooove to look like her.
As a nursing student, I firmly believe you have to be your own advocate. If you have a concern do NOT let them turn you away that easily. People die because healthcare providers think people are being dramatic or using google to diagnose themselves, when that is often not the case. Good for you that you pushed for the biopsy. Hoping for the best outcome for you!!
ER Nurse here, keep your mentality! I always tell my patients no one will advocate for them better than themselves.
this is so true... though i have diagnosed several serious things correctly through google... like endometriosis 13 yrs ago before like anyone had really heard of it, i did EXTENSIVE research so its not for everyone but if you have the research skills i say google away, just be very discerning. Point is the OBGYN i went to and had to BEG for the surgery to diagnose it was convinced i was just wanting surgery for drugs (what a freakin JERK! i dont even do drugs!) low and behond the a hole had to apologize cuz what did he find??? endo~freakin~metriosis. boom. ALWAYS ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF!!!
Yasss so true. I think it’s not even the doctors that are not wanting to care fore you but just so so many things can go wrong that how would they ever check everything unless people can guide them in the right direction😭 I’m glad I didn’t offend the doctors of RUclips lol I would never want to discredit anyone’s education so thank you for this comment 💕
Right!! The moment you mention “Google” you are discredited. Yes there is bogus information on the web but thinking I just believe whatever I read is very degrading. I ALWAYS make sure it comes from a reputable source.
It's disgusting how often this happens to women. I told my doctor THREE times maybe even more, "I feel like I'm dead. I've never felt this horrible in my entire life. These are not allergies. I don't get them. Never have." He literally laughed at me, thinking I was being dramatic, and then said "allergies can happen to anyone. You don't have strep, so it must be allergies." I didn't have allergies, and that moron made me leave with a box of Claritin. Not to mention when I was in first grade, I was complaining about a stomach ache. I was in terrible pain, and the doctor said I had strep, which made no sense, and another doctor said I was just faking it to get out of school. Cut to me almost dying because I had appendicitis. It was about to explode and at the age and size I was, they said it would have killed me if they didn't remove it in time.
Hey Morgan! I used to work as a medical assistant in dermatology. I recommend keeping your incision site moist with Aquaphor everyday until it heals! It help prevent scarring. Also once it starts to heal (it'll look like new pink skin), you can start massaging the area every day and applying silicone to the area and that will prevent it from scarring ugly too. Hope that helps. xoxo
Lol thank you. I worked as a Medical Assistant in Dermatology for almost 5 years… I had so many comments to the video lol. I use to laugh when I’d watch medical shows with my ex husband who would get so into what they were doing wrong…. I’ve felt that in my bones today watching this video 😂
Yes!!! No chance to dry, unlike our engrained instinct. I bought a big tube and fill up my little tubes I grab at the derm.
Cupping is really good for breaking up scar tissue, too 🫶🏼
I get your point but I resent that you call scars ugly
@@megwhite6295agree. I'm full of them 😕
You have probably saved a life here girl, no joke. We all get crappy doctors - so you spoke to advocating but also to remind us to get checked! Thanks Morgan ! I am hoping for a speedy recovery. Please update us when you can - thank you for being so transparent.
advocating for your health is SO important and thank god you did this! doctors are becoming more busy having more patients than ever and most just dont or cant take the time to be doing THOROUGH exams. also with this next generation of doctors coming up who, like me, have a life consumed of social media its just going to get worse. ALWAYS ADVOCATE FOR YOUR HEALTH!
Exactly.
I work for a Mohs surgeon and I promise your scar will get better! Don’t become discouraged it takes a lot of time and you will see a lot of different phases. So proud of you 💕Please everyone get your annual skin checks!!!
💕🥹💕🥹 thank you. I’m just starting the silicon and I think it’s actually helping a lot
Your scar represents your self-love & the inner strength it takes to stand up for yourself.
Be proud of it.
I’ve had melanoma twice. I had to ask the doctor both times to remove the moles to get removed to be checked after they said they looked “fine”. Good job being persistent!
I went to the dermatologist because of you. I was concerned about a mole for a year, and they were concerned enough to test it. Skin cancer runs in my family. Haven’t figured out what it is yet, but thank you. I hope you have a speedy recovery, physically and mentally ❤
“It’s not funny.” After me making fun of the bad situations I can’t control in my life. I completely get it.
If it makes you feel better, a kid commented on my stretch marks when I was in 6th grade. He thought I self harmed when they were just a ton of stretch marks. I completely stopped wearing shorts to school after that. I also have this chronic Illness called Pots. Through out the years a few kids asked why my legs are very red/purple. It’s a circulation problem.
Morgan inspires me.. My parents said if i get 50K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
I also don't wear shorts because of my circulation problem with my legs. They swell all the time and I get very uncomfortable if anyone can see my legs. Which also means no swimming either. I've had swollen legs since I was 19 yrs old and I'm now 36 yrs old 😢 I freaking hate it so much...I just want normal looking legs 🦵 🥲
I suspect I have pots. Sometimes my legs go like that. I think you just confirmed it lol. The other day my knees literally looked purple, and I was like wtf?! Thank you. I have other chronic illnesses that can cause pots btw. 💗🏴
It's so disturbing that you had a melanoma and the doctor tried to just tell you you're fine. Women are gaslit so much by medical professionals. I'm proud of you for advocating for yourself! I wish you wouldn't have had to.
Women? everyone. lol why you always try to be a victim??? :D Why WOMEN love to be victims and weak non stop?
I’m a dermatology medical assistant and I’m so glad you’re getting treated and bringing awareness to melanoma and annual skin exams !! And please find a derm that you like and trust because they’re out there!! I hope you’re feeling okay morgan!!
Also they’re stopping the bleeding by burning when you hear the “zzzzzz” every time… sorry!!!!! It’s called electrocautery
Okay but why cant we be put to sleep for this kind of surgery? Im autistic and have sensory issues. I would ignore all signs of cancer until its too late to avoid this.
@@candidavis1061you might be able to! It would definitely be worth asking a dermatologist about!! But typically they don’t because it’s done with a local anesthetic but you might be able to find resources to help you!
@@candidavis1061 have you tried noise cancelling headphones?
@@candidavis1061 Because being put under brings a whole lot of risks that are not worth it for something that can be numbed with a local.
America is far behind Europe, it seems. I'm pretty sure one would at least get some nitrous oxide there.
I’m always amazed at how beautiful Morgan is and aside from physically she is seems like the coolest person to hang with. Im sure the people in her life appreciate her because you can’t just find a Morgan anywhere.
No one knows your body better than you do. If you feel something is wrong, get a 2nd, 3rd and 4th opinion until you get answers.
Does insurance pay for 2nd 3rd and 4th? because if not that could get expensive.
@Satellitegirl41 In my experience, yes, they do.
And also worth a try
Also if you are on the heavier side never let the doctor weight shame you into making you think it's weight causing your problems granted weight does cause issues but again everyone knows their body's. So if something doesn't feel like it's weight related rather feels like something to cause for alarm demand a doctor to take you serious & never allow them to weight shame you bottom line..
@@Satellitegirl41yes it does and if it doesn't then seek a better insurance plan rather one that is ripping you off
Honestly, that scar looks badass. Not to mention you look STUNNING in every frame of this video💕
Thanks boo 😭😭😭💕💕💕
Morgan thanks to you…I am now in the process for testing a possible skin cancer on my face.I’m 50 and noticed a weird bunch of puffy growths on the side of my face near the jaw. I’ve had bone cancer and was run over by a van before so I’m not as scared as I would normally be …but I truly have you to thank because your video made me rethink what I was ignoring. Awaiting the results now and I’m off to watch your video.Much hugs and love ❤❤
Best of luck & lots of love queen ❤❤
good luck lovely
Emily Hayward would be so proud of you. ❤
Ty so much everyone !
Good luck! You are a WARRIOR or a women 💪🏼
In 2020 I ended up having a full hysterectomy at 27 years old with full on uteran cancer because I was “too young” to have it removed any sooner. It had to be deadly for them to actually remove it. And STILL IT WAS LIKE PULLING TEETH to get anyone to listen to me. ALWAYS advocate for yourself. You’re the only one who can. ❤
Hi Morgan! Thyroid removed here! I didn't want to have a massive scar in my throat, so the doc told me to cover if with 3M medical tape for some months 😮 to protect it from UV Ray's in order to avoid pigmentation, and that I applied sunscreen lotion once fully healed. I'd say it worked pretty well. Big hugs!!
I had my thyroid removed as well and vitamin E did wonders for my scar! There is nothing there anymore! Wild.
This worked for my mom after her neck dissection!
Omg im 6 months post op and my scar is super 3D and red 😩
@@janeeyrebows just be patient. Keep on covering it with the tape for a couple of months.
I just had my thyroid scan and bloodwork. Apparently not Hashimoto's but I'm still keeping an eye on it because I already have Lupus (they're comorbid).
BioOil and Polysporin work well too. I have scratches from my rabbits/Lupus cyst marks.
As someone who's had 5 basal cell carcinomas in the last 12 months, I hope they actually scheduled a full-body exam for you. Also, 100% appreciate your humor even though you clearly want to have have a gd hissy fit. Me too girl. Me too
Yes, you should go to another dermatologist for a full body checkup. You can fire your doctor if you don’t like their approach to your health care.
Right? So positive and a great sense of humor
i CANNOT stress just how important advocating for yourself and your health is because the amount of times that doctors have just glanced over something that can be fatal to someone is just ridiculous and happens far too often
You are a true inspiration to women and men alike! Thank you for sharing your very personal journey. My dad found spots on his skin and waited too long to get it checked and it was too late and the cancer had spread to his internal organs. He passed March of 2020 and I try to spread awareness to anyone who might spend a lot of time outside in the sun to always wear sunscreen and be aware of your body and if you notice anything out of the ordinary, tell your doctor and get it checked out. A small mole can turn into melanoma and be cancerous and just a small non descript pigmentation can turn deadly.
God bless you for spreading awareness to those who might have the same issue or something similar.
You're a damn hero and I'm praying for your swift recovery and CANCER FREE DIAGNOSIS.
I seriously, as corny as it may seem, think of you as family and I would be devastated if anything happened to you or anyone else in the fam.
You're so brave and my prayers are with you and yours. Love you Morgan! The sister I wish I had! But my honorary sister you are!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have had between 12-18 biopsies per year for my “moles”. During one of my visits last year I had to pay to have one removed from my nose, that was the only cancerous one. ALWAYS ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF!
As someone with OCD hypocondria and anxiety, your perspectives your humor make me feel so much better! Please always stay you. Best of luck to you, its all ganna be ok❤
Morgan, I'm 23 years old and have been dealing with cervical cancer. I know how mentally exhausting it all can be. Definitely not the same procedures, but the mental ups n downs you go through from it are similar. I had abnormal cell growth, and we had to get it all out. Been recovering well and I'm sure you will too! You're strong, beautiful, kind, hilarious, and just an overall joy. So keep your head up and heart strong n you'll get thru anything and everything ❤💜💙💛🧡💚 just wanna let you know you're not alone n you are very much valuedd
More women need to discuss this. It’s so important we get checked, and in UK they don’t go as early as we do in the states. I had my surgeries in my 20’s as well. ❤️ Healing thoughts your way.
❤
you are so strong, wish you the best!!!
I had cervical cancer when I was 25 I had to have a full hysterectomy and they did more testing thank God I was fine afterwards. I am one of the lucky ones.
Hey love, also dealing with cervical cancer at 23 and will need a hysterectomy. It really sucks and is so scary bc a hysterectomy so young can have severe health issues :/ wishing you the best 🫶
I’m 23 and had major surgery a few months ago, I have a 22cm incision line from my belly button straight up my stomach so I relate so much to now having this big scar on me forever but you get used to it so quickly and it’s just a reminder that you survived that! Congratulations on getting through it and advocating for yourself!
How are you doing now?
"I can take better care of you than this kitty cat"
I love your grandma so much
Hi ❤ at 15 I was diagnosed with bone cancer and went through chemo and had my left leg amputated. No matter the size of the scar, it’s still hard to see those permanent changes in our bodies. At ten years cancer free I got a beautiful flower tattoo to cover my Iva’s scar and the other scars that aren’t covered I try to still embrace. Don’t be afraid to acknowledge how you feel about the situation and it will help you heal not just physically but mentally too. You are beautiful ❤
In Spanish we call moles "lunares" which would translate to something like "little moons" or "from the moon" which is so cute
Cute until it kills you
I love that.
And a note the the other response, most moles are not cancerous lol, chill.
@@Milioem🙄
Oh that is so cool to know!
In Polish we call them "pieprzyk" because 'pieprz' means 'pepper', as in 'ball of pepper'. :,)
@@Milioem😂😂😂😂😂
Girl. I live near you, and you convinced me to get my skin checked as I also have questionable moles. Especially in this Colorado sunshine! Just booked my appt so thank you!
Yesss we are way too close to the sun up here 🥹 I hope it all goes well
I've always loved your freckles! I have a ton too & my mom used to tell me that our freckles/moles were spots where angels kissed us before we were born. I do think that most people don't see/pay attention to what we're the most self-conscious about, but it's still hard to ignore so it's awesome that you're embracing them!
Morgan I just want to thank you for being so open and honest about this, my mother passed away from skin cancer caused by HPV, and awareness and regular check-ups are one of the most important thing one can do. I wish you a fast and easy recovery
My mom is currently in surgery removing a bug nasal cell skin cancer spot on her cheek. 😢
Sunscreen especially from convenience stores have terrible ingredients in, making it worse. Seed oils (canola, vegetable, etc) is found in darn near everything now… chips, granola bars, etc. and those oils deep out of the skin making it worse with the sun. And sunglasses too playing tricks with our body’s natural rhythm eyes in communication with our brain.
So much I’ve been unlearning the past 4 years because we aren’t properly taught. Everything is hidden and ingredients that should be illegal fill our stores aisles.
So much love to you as I feel for you a fraction as I’m in this with my mom currently. So much love! ❤
Advocating for your health is so important I'm so thankful you listened to your body and pushed for the testing you needed!!! I was really sick back in 2005 I eventually went to get tested for diabetes the doctor told my I didn't have it. My body and my gut told me he was wrong. I went to the ER the next day where not only was I diagnised with Type 1 Diabetes I was told if I had waited just one more day to come in I would have gone into a diabetic coma. Sharing your story will definitely help others advocate for their help thank you so much for sharing 💜💜💜
This is a reminder that you’re going to be okay and perspective is everything. The mole is gone now and the scar will heal and fade. I’ve had 6 major surgeries where I was actually sedated and I remember 4 of them (I was 3yrs old for the first). Your scar isn’t that big and it will be okay. The last 4 surgeries I had were all within 9 months of each other in 2020 and within the first two years all 4 scars blended in with the other skin almost 100%. I had a 3 MONTH recovery for both elbows (each) where I couldn’t lift anything, even my rabbit, and the hands took 2 months (same restrictions). You’re very lucky that you don’t have those type of restrictions. I couldn’t even cook for myself or wipe with the recovering arm when each one was healing. I literally had to learn to wipe left handed & I have mobility issues so it was beyond difficult.
Two of the scars that I have (faded nicely) are both on my palms and about the same side as your new one. My other two are legitimately about 6-7 inches on my elbows. They’ve healed nicely too and I didn’t do anything special to help them heal, it’s a little vitamin E cream daily. My 5th is also healed and faded but 32 years ago the surgeons didn’t care about scarring, so I genuinely look like I’ve had a c-section, cut from hip to hip. I don’t care though because F- what others think. My 6th was last year and I was misdiagnosed, so my gallbladder got removed when it didn’t need to (and in Canada we can’t sue fyi). Those 3 incisions are 1” each and they’re healing nicely too. They’re thick scars though, but worrying about their appearance won’t help me.
I do understand your fear and anxiety. I acknowledge that. I do also need to say that if you’re not going right now, therapy is probably necessary for you. Your obsession with looking good to the point where you’re actually freaking out over a surgery where you weren’t sedated & it was in-office (minor) is quite over the top. It’s unhealthy to be that level of upset over an in-office non-sedated procedure. You survived, your skin will heal, the scar will fade.
The reason I’m finding this video quite dramatic is that you’ll have a quick recovery time too, on top of everything I mentioned. I understand that you don’t have the perspective of having major surgeries & you’re 10 years younger. It’s also not like you were told you need chemo either.
Cancer is a scary word, but dwelling on it won’t help your mental state. I don’t care to play the “who had it worse game”; I’m trying to give you perspective. Changing your mindset will help you tremendously in life.
My last perspective is that: I live with a neurological degenerative disease and an autoimmune arthritis (also degenerative) where it affects all my joints, especially my spine. Instead of wallowing in self pity, I remind myself that even thought I do “have it bad”, it also could be significantly worse. I will remind myself that I could be paralyzed, or I could be bed-ridden, or I could be blind… there are so many hardships out there that mine is something that I can survive with. I remind myself that I have pain management (a lot of people don’t), I’m getting care to manage (not cure) my diseases. Sh!t could be far worse. I could sit at home, take disability and not work, and dwell in loneliness & pain, but I make the conscious choice daily to get up & try.
The ONLY way to mentally survive any hardship is to BE POSITIVE. For you, remind yourself that at least you’re not dying, at least you don’t need chemo, at least it’s a quick recovery, and at least it was caught in time. You’re going to be okay.
Stay Positive & don’t dwell. You’ll be okay.
My mom had basal cell carcinoma right under her lower lash line. Luckily all of her drs were women and no scaring or anything.She had a full blown panic attack during the procedure and they were so great to her.
I hop you're doing good Morgan ❤
Thank you so much Morgan. If you find you really hate your scar, Google dainty little wildflower tattoo. I’ve seen so many ladies scars covered in this way and it’s so feminine. Wildflowers are way more tougher than they look - just like us. I’m so proud of you.
For a while I was really sad about having 3 scars on my stomach after my surgeries. After a while I almost started appreciating them. They are a part of my story. There might be more one day and I learned to be okay with that. I hope you can either love your scar or have it fixed, whatever works best ❤
You from what you show handled this a lot better than myself . I had skin cancer just 4 months ago and up to my surgery I was acting like it was the end of the world , ofc it could always be worse but that was such a difficult situation and painful at that
Morgan, I love how close you are with your grandmother. I am too lol. Anyways, I have been feeling rough lately because I start school tomorrow. You cheered me up! Have a good day Morgan and good luck with your life! You are my youtuber bestie! 💕
Iv been feeling so depressed lately. Watching you makes me so happy. I’m sorry you’re going through this but you will get through it God is so good
7:34 is the best advice for any doctor appointment. Every wellness check I go to I write a list of things I'm worried about. This saved my life cuz I had a 50% chance of thyroid cancer.
Thank you for sharing! Because of you I had a weird spot on my forehead checked out. Still waiting to hear back but it’s a relief to have done something about it! So thank you! And you truly are beautiful!
I’m glad you got it checked I hope everything came back good 🥹🥹 thank you 💕🥹
Women get neglected in the healthcare system time and time again!
💯☝️
Morgan thank you so much for sharing your experience. Because of you I set up a dermatology appointment for a skin check. I have a few questionable spots that I had been afraid to acknowledge but you eased a lot of my fears and made me feel like I wasn't alone. Thanks for helping me find the courage to make the appointment.
Hey Morgan! I also had melanoma removed and had to go back for a second surgery to “clear the margins”. When I went back, they also removed some lymph nodes under my armpit because they tested positive for cancer as well. I then had a PET scan of my whole body to check if it had spread anywhere else. I’m in Canada, so they might do things differently here - but you should maybe get a second opinion from another dermatologist. I haven’t had any reoccurrence and have been cancer free for over 13 years… but still am constantly checking to see if my “freckles” are changing.
I’ve had a contractor ruin my house Morgan. We just listed the finished property and it sold in ONE DAY! Im sending that energy to you. Finish the house! We all 🥰
Hey Morgan! I was just recently diagnosed with breast cancer at age 22 so I know how you feel 😢 it’s really scary and unbelievable but we got this. I’m happy to hear yours doesn’t seem to have spread and that all you need is surgery! I have a port placed that will leave a scar on my chest and will have to get a double mastectomy. Your scar looks amazing and you are beautiful and strong. You got this girl ❤
You do too!
Hi Morgan, I had the same surgery in March, I feel you, I try and tell myself at least they found it and I’m still here, cause it can be deadly, thinking of you have a great week 😀❤️
Thank you so much for the video,I really appreciate it. I have been on chemo on and off for 11 years and I have been warned with my family history I'm most likely to get skin cancer and now I have moles appearing out of nowhere and growing fast that I need to get checked and I'm terrified,I bawl in tears everytime I look at them and you're giving me courage to go to the doctor. Thank you please keep us updated and I hope you feel better soon physically and mentally.
Omg Cookie, ChaCha, *GRANDMA*😭😭😭, the loving vibes are immaculate in this🙌. Wishing you all the best and here's to a speedy recovery🥺❤.
I’m so glad this is something that’s shared. Cancer is scary and I think it’s very important to talk about it to lessen the fear. Cancer took away my 20s, my education and my career I dreamed of. I had thyroid cancer (now I have hyperthyroidism!!). I shared all of it and it somehow made it less scary.
Thank you Morgan for sharing your journey ❤️
My mum is currently going through the same ordeal, melanomas suck. Wishing you all the best. Xx
I've struggled the past 7 years with so many kinds of doctors trying to figure out what's wrong with me and my chronic pain. I'm so glad you were persistent and found the answers you needed! 💜
I pray you do too, I’m sorry you hurt.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I've gone through the same thing. What's your symptoms and what have they tested you for yet? I may be able to suggest them to test for
@@progers018 moderate- severe knee (sometimes hip) pain. Shoulder, neck, and upper back pain. It will sort of 'flare up' I haven't really found a pattern yet except for cold weather apparently. I had an MRI of my cervical spine, saw a rheumatologist and was tested for the common autoimmune conditions and checked for RA. I've had general blood screens which ofc were normal. I wanted to get tested for Lyme but my doc kind of blew it off
As a chronic pain patient of 23 years, my thoughts are with you. I'm so glad I finally found a pain doctor - I was so tired of doctors looking at me sideways or treating me as though it was all in my head.
Scars are badass and so are you. Happy healing, lovely!
:,) thank you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Had a BCC removed on chest a month ago. Good for you for bringing awareness to skin checks.
Your scar is so badass Morgan, I hope you have a speedy recovery sweetheart lots of love from Peru
I had cardiac surgery at 20 and multiple resuscitation attempts causing me to have many scars on not only my chest but my body and it is an adjustment many tears have been shed knowing they will be there forever and ill never have my old body back so thank you for sharing your journey and being so candid with you audience ❤️
Girl you are looking FIT and your skin is flawless. You're glowing ❤
I just had skin cancer removed from the middle of my face, I’m so glad you posted about this to show what it’s like going through these experiences.
Wishing you a speedy recovery! Don't use neosporin, my surgeon says it causes more scarring. Also, I bring earplugs in so I don't have to hear all the funky noises.
Your gorgeous and if your ever in a relationship and they judge you on a scar, they dont deserve you. We love you and hope for a speedy recovery!
I applaud you for being so open and (seemingly) strong about such a serious topic! Crossing all my fingers that everything is all gucci now!
I'm half your surgery went well. I just started going to a dermatologist and I got a "full body check" and they didn't look at anything. Glanced at my back, and the spots that were worrying me on my face, and breast. I'm on a skin clearing journey right now to. Everything is going well, but I have a lot of scarring. Your skin has been looking awesome recently. Thanks for being so open, and showing us everything, even the scar. Cause I was like you said, I wanted to see it.
Good lord woman, your eyes and short hair are everything!!! You have the prettiest eyes ive ever seen❤ you look amazing!
I had the same surgery to remove skin cancer, except it was on my scalp and close to my ear. Nothing can quite prepare you for listening to your scalp being cut off, cauterised and then sewn back together. I went to my doctors twice, being told it was a age wart (I’m only 25) and then a cyst. I also went to a dermatologist not believing what my GP had told me, they recommended to get it checked by a cosmetic surgeon. Anyway… I guess as you said, always trust your own body and push for your own advocation when you feel something isn’t right. Hope everything is healing nicely for you and sending best wishes 💗
Hope you’re healing okay ❤

Omg Morgan you have changed so much I’ve been watching your videos since way back and girl you look STUNNING like a whole ass baddie I almost didn’t recognize you cause of how much as changed over the years but hopefully you get better soon cancer is never permanent never give up 💓!
Girl, I feel your pain! I always protect my skin. I always have sunblock on. Out of nowhere I get a mole thats black and surrounded by jagged brown. The dermatologist asked why I was concerned...Hello! It's two colors! She finally removes it and it comes back concerning. I wish you quick healing and beautiful porcelain skin. You got this!
Bye Norma , you have done an amazing thing sharing all you cancer process, we all try to take care of sun damage but it goes to show it’s possible even with sunscreen. Sending you a huge gentle hug 🤗.
Take care x
Always a good day when Morgan posts❤️ Sending you good vibes!!
The Kiehls mask is my favvvvvvv. Instantly corrects and makes you gorgeous everyyyyy time
That scar should just remind you of how strong you are! I wish you all the best Morgan
It will! I have my own boobie scar. I tell people it was a gang fight 😅💚
@@cbuckholt13 haha i love that!
Morgan thank you for being so vulnerable with us! I really love your content. I hope all heals well and you’re cancer free!! ALSO*** you can use Emu Oil on your scar when it heals, and it’s AMAZING!! It helps with redness and size.
Hey Morgan! So that buzzing you heard during your procedure is what is called cauterizing. It is used for many things in surgery, but in this case it was likely to stop bleeding by burning and essentially sealing small blood vessels that had to cut during the procedure. I'm so glad this issue is over for you! And especially that you are okay! Thank you for spreading awareness about not only skin cancer, but also about advocating for yourself! And thank you for making me laugh so much! ❤
You are gorgeous! That scar is pretty badass too. Hope the recovery is quick🙏 Thanks for urging people to see a dermatologist! We have a year waiting list in some parts of the UK unless you go private which sucks but I'm on it 😅 x
Love you girl! Good vibes your way ❤
I’m sorry you have to go through this. I’ve gotten t my excision on 9/4 and will hopefully have clear margins! Good luck to you!
So real man!I had been having really bad pain on my side and lower stomach and my primary doctor said it’s just stress and IBS.Turns out it was a cancerous tumor in the center of my spleen which resulted in me having to have my whole spleen removed.SECOND OPINIONS ARE ALWAYS IMPORTANT YALL!!!!✨
Love you! I’m so proud of you and your strength. I hope you heal quickly ❤ and feel great as soon as possibly
Ahh there she is, I was wondering when you’d post an update.🥺❤ speedy recovery Morgan🫶🏽 ahh august 16🥺 my dads heavenly birthday 😭
this whole vlog I couldn’t stop thinking about how gorgeous you look
Appreciate you so much for sharing this with us. ❤ and word to the girls, please ask your doctors all the questions you have about any issue. Don't feel pressure to hurry up your appointment and never feel like you're a burden or like you're wasting someone's time. Your life is important. Ask away! Love, fellow anxiety girl ✌😊
I’ve been putting off a skin check for years now since getting an abnormal mole removed…just checked my own skin & will be making an appointment tomorrow morning!! Thank you for sharing.
I also think social media is so much WORSE for kids these days. We grew up comparing ourselves to models and now all of us adults are creating these “highlight reels” for literal 12 year olds to compare themselves too. I just feel so bad that my 8 year old niece feels any pressure to look like a 25 year old. What can we do to help the next generation of little girls *actually* feel comfortable in their body?
wow that blonde looks sooo good on you!! and i love the cute!!
Your grandma saying she cam take better care of you than the cat melted My ❤!
I hope you get better soon Morgan!Also that shake from Arby’s is so good!
Sending good vibes your way on your journey with this.
I’ve been hearing from a lot of dermatologists and they’ve been saying skin cancer most likely doesn’t even come from the sun, it comes from our diet and the foods we eat 🤯 stay safe out there ya’ll, make good choices!
Ipray everything goes his from here on out with your health and you are so freaking pretty! Love your vibes since day one of me running into your videos! 💜Girl the growing up love is insane still to me. I'm having a horrible prep day today for a freaking colonoscopy tomorrow morning bc my Dr is concerted after looking up my butthole and then Thursday I'll be getting a heart monitor for a month plus obgyn Dr stuff bc horrible irregular bleeding... after seeing so many people my age have stuff happening and with one who recently passed from cancer and leaving behind her little boy and husband and seeing her last videos and hearing how strong she was motivated me even more to take my health more important especially for my 4 kids so I'm around as long as I can to watch them grow and be their for big moments in their lives🩵🩷🩵🩷
I’m so proud of you for getting checked out. So many people think “oh, it’ll never be me” and boom.
I get double endoscopies every 5 years as stomach and colon cancers run in my family. Better safe than sorry! ❤❤
ive followed you for so long bestie, so happy you got that taken care of! you will rock it like everything else in your wonderful messy life. I'm sending you clear skin vibes! Also so pretty make up and no make up, so so so pretty.
🥺 you’re so sweet this just made my night. thank you!!! And thank you for being here. Sending you the biggest hug ever ever ever ❤️❤️❤️❤️
F cancer. We love you Morgan! ❤
Listen, Grandma is so precious I could just cry everytime I see her. She reminds me of my grandma I lost last year to Leukemia.
& my dad went w me to get my mole cut out of me too & I was only numbed not put out either. The deeper she got, the more I felt 😭 I’m praying for you sugar ♥️
It's a shame that doctors never tell people that sugar literally feeds cancer cells. Girl, that scar is a victory scar...wear that ish proudly. Your beautiful
Anything u eat "feeds cancer cells" cause they're just your own cells that have mutated

A few years ago I cut my leg open on a broken box spring from an old mattress. The scar I got from that was really noticeable. I was insecure about it for awhile, but somewhere between year 1 one and year 2 after that happened, the purple color finally faded into a pearly white. I grew to like it a lot more than I thought I ever would.
We shall call "moles" Normas from here on out!!! Sending Many Healing Prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I've had the same issue with my moles since I was young. My mom would call them "beauty marks" and that made me feel so much better about them. I now say the same thing to my daughter.
I hope you heal good!! I literally got a tattoo from the song you showed. It’s another added sign that I needed it.
Also when you got diagnosed I ended up getting a skin check and had 2 suspicious moles removed but luckily we got them just in time. So thank you for motivating me to get them checked. 💜
Poor baby - love ya so much - body dysmorphia, well I’m nearly 60 and suffer from it still!! I was on a morning show tv excerpt where I won some clothes that had to be chosen by a fashion expert - annnyway what came out of it waaaaas that I have body dysmorphia - well, who knew but now I know life just isn’t any easier!!! But yea once you know it at some point it does kinda make life more understandable, and with menopause happening well the weight stacking on - you can’t imagine!!!
Anyway I wanted to say your skin is looking amazing and have you explored hyrams channel - he started me on a journey to expel my sons acne and it worked amazingly - inkey list, the ordinary cereve moisturiser, all really fantastic products.
And yes changing your pillowcases and make up brushes on a regular is so so sooo important!!!
Anyway the scar is horrendous but in time to come it will fade so don’t worry at alllll, love ya.
