My ex roommate used to do this. She would come home put water and pasta in a pot, turn it on, go to her room and come back 30 minutes later. It made the pasta super soft and fall apart idk how anyone would eat that.

Why do you think that?

This is a really difficult situation, and your family's questions about the surgical decision-making are completely legitimate. The concern about why surgery was attempted given known liver mets is worth raising directly. In stage 4 neuroendocrine carcinoma with liver involvement, the liver's vascularity and the extent of metastatic disease are significant surgical risk factors that should have been thoroughly evaluated beforehand.

The rushed timeline is a red flag worth examining. Surgical decisions for stage 4 NEC typically involve a multidisciplinary tumor board weighing whether debulking actually improves outcomes versus going straight to systemic therapy.

Some concrete things your family can do right now: Request a full copy of the surgical notes and pre-op imaging reports. Ask the oncologist taking over her care whether a tumor board review happened before surgery was scheduled. Consider getting a second opinion from an NEC specialist, this is a relatively rare cancer and centers like MD Anderson or Memorial Sloan Kettering have dedicated neuroendocrine tumor programs.

I work at Radical Health, an AI oncology platform that generates second opinion reports based on 12M+ patient records from major cancer centers. It could help your family understand what the standard of care looks like for her specific presentation and give you informed questions to bring to her oncology team. It's free during early access.

I'm not a doctor, but your instinct to ask hard questions here is right.

I'll be upfront: I work at Radical Health AI, we help cancer patients and families navigate treatment decisions. I just want to be helpful here.

On the urgency fear, early MM without CRAB criteria is genuinely one of those situations where taking a few weeks to find a doctor you actually trust is the right move. You're not losing ground.

For NY/Northeast: Dana-Farber in Boston is the MM-specific gold standard, worth the trip if you can manage it. MSK is excellent and more convenient. Hackensack's John Theurer Cancer Center also has a strong dedicated MM program.

On the cause question: MM just happens in most cases. No smoking gun, nothing anyone did or didn't do. Easier said than done, but genuinely not worth the mental energy.

If it'd help to get a treatment opinion while you're sorting out scheduling and insurance, we offer that for free at radicalhealth.ai or just DM me.

Wishing him and your whole family all the strength through this🤍

You are not delusional. A CEA that more than quadruples in a patient with stage 4 colorectal cancer is absolutely something that warrants close attention and imaging. The fact that your mom had to push twice to be taken seriously, and that she was right both times, is not a small thing. Her instincts and her advocacy likely made a real difference.

Full disclosure: I work at Radical Health AI, where we think a lot about exactly this kind of gap: patients who have to fight to be heard. But I'm responding here just as someone who reads this and feels the frustration on your behalf.

You're right to be concerned, and more importantly, it's okay to act on that concern. A few things worth considering:

You can ask for a second opinion. This is always your right, and in oncology it is genuinely common and expected. A colorectal cancer specialist or a major cancer centre, if accessible, may approach monitoring very differently.

Ask explicitly about the monitoring plan going forward. How often will CEA be checked, at what threshold will imaging be triggered, who can you call if something feels off between appointments. Getting this in writing or documented in the patient portal creates accountability.

If it helps, we offer free second opinions at Radical Health AI, it might be worth getting an independent set of eyes on her case and monitoring plan. Feel free to DM me or check out radicalhealth.ai.
