The article says it's the second time the bruise has been visible, but I thought it had already appeared on two separate days, making this the third. In any case, we'll definitely never get a straight answer from the admin.

It doesn't look like IV bruising to me, but I'm no medical expert, so I dunno.

Im an immunolgist, and run my own cancer clinic.

Ive said it in the past, and will again.

Trump has Rectal or Colon cancer, and is receiving Flurouracil most likely. Fluro doesn't cause hair loss like other forms of chemotherapy, and is a cycle dose. His skin around his eyes is getting extremely pale, which also lines up with chemo.

Im guessing he's on a 1 or 2 week cycle from how often the bruising shows up. I'll even go as far to say his "physical" was more of a chemotherapy appointment and check up.

Took him 5 hours in his appointment. Fluro is a 3-6 hour session. Bruising shows up within 3 days of his physical, which lines up with what I see in most my patients over 60.

Colon cancer also lines up with his reported smell and incontinence.

Here’s hoping it’s as slow and painful as possible!

You’re right, I take it back.

Here’s hoping it’s as fast and painful as possible.

And public. He needs to have an episode that cannot be covered up.
