    The sheer bravery it took to come out and speak openly about this debilitating illness..... Joe, you're nothing less than a Hero!

    Such an important message. My heart goes out to you both. Stay strong. As a fellow survivor I know the strain it can put on a marriage. Try to forgive her as I try to forgive my feckless uncaring wife.

    It makes me mad that women just can not grasp the seriousness of this illness, more education on the long term affects is needed.

    I swear every time I get man flu and I think I'm overreacting I come back to this video and I'm reminded how serious it is ❤

    I so relate to this. I have a dose of it myself right now. I just don't understand how my wife was so negligent to let me get this!

    I would not wish the terrible affliction of man flu on anyone, no matter how much I might hate them.
    Sometimes it's so hard to bear everything we men have to go through. WHY haven't NHS set up a priority department in A&E for this horrifying disease already??

    • @Manwith3buttocks
      @Manwith3buttocks  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Vrex622 The sad thing is, people laugh it off. Even when the evidence is blatantly shown to them like this. Hopefully one day there will be an awakening and a movement which finally leads to us men being heard.
      In the meantime, please, stay strong.

    As I sit here suffering from this awful affliction, I can't help but feel hopeful that maybe one day, I might be as strong as Joe. I've gotten over the worst of it now and am in recovery. Thank you for this inspiring video, it came at a time of great need for me.

    This just has the tears rolling down my cheeks everytime. A tremendous bit of acting by Johnny but how Deirdre manages to keep a straight face is worth an oscar. I wonder how many takes this took to make. :)

    @DelTangBrav 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    No it isn't just an Irish thing - men worldwide are seriously affected by it. This man is very lucky having such an understanding partner, many of us are scoffed at when we get it - Often by female partners who themselves make a such a fuss over a natural thing like childbirth - and get quite annoyed when we remind them that we didn't carry on like they're doing when we did our bit nine months previously. It's sometimes very difficult being a man.

  • @PadhraicinN
    @PadhraicinN 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for sharing this invaluable health information. I actually thought a few Lempsip would shake it off in 2 or 3 days, but the recovery rate is obviously much longer. I have certainly learned to be more sympathetic to men who are going through this.

    @Shmulvey Thanks very much! We appreciate the comment. You're right, if we had done it in any other way than completely straight and serious, it wouldn't have had the same results, Johnny Graham and his wife played the couple and they were brilliant, nearly each shot was done in one take, makes the work easy!

    I to have contracted the man flu, the symptoms came on rapidly through the early hours , the sad thing is I to survived it 4 years back but the marriage didn't make it as my ex wife was of the same carefree attitude as Mary in this video !!
    So fighting it alone this time , my nose looks like Ronald McDonald and I just hope I can make it through this time ... 🙏
