Omg, Harlow went right to the food after the first hand signal. Soooo adorable!! I'm so proud of her training!!! It looks like Harlow only listen to you and not your husband!! That's funny. And Judd really loves his perm cheese. Good workout you did with the big red chair!!
Katie Corbett talking to someone will get you through the pain, it won't go away but it will get better. I truly hope you're feeling a bit better, sorry for your loss. I never met my grandpa but was the last baby in our family to be given the last Chinese name by our grandpa.
That big red chair looked like a lot of fun! Glad Harlow's loving trying new components of her raw diet too. She's getting so good with her speak command! (Side note, I really love your blanket, it's super cute!)
You are amazing with teaching Harlow. I love Harlow's little face when she looks at you and is focused. I bet your neighbors are happy your dog doens't bark loudly. I notice Harlow jumps when she barks, and I don't know if that is part of the goal or if that is just what she does. You are naturally talented with training a dog. Impressive!
I saw the thumbnail and went 'i know that chair!' If i ever go to Tampa Bay im definitely sitting in it Haha! Im sorry your symtoms are giving you a hard time today, but your less dependent on your walker as you said so sucess!! love you Jaquie! ❤️
Hi Jaique! Your videos make me feel so much better! I had a huge headache from watching TH-cam all day, felt soo dizzy. I went off and watched your videos while resting and I got 10x better! You are my hero and saviour! :D thanks for allowing us to come with you along your adventure
Hi Jacqui l watched your "no more diet sugestions" video and l was again so impressed by your speaking ability. You are so articulate and even talking about uncomfortable subjects, your ability to calmly explain things makes me understand. I also have chonic illness and watching your positivity is very inspiring. Your are my favourite TH-camr, Thankyou for putting all the effort for your viewers. 💚💛💜
So thankful you took the video in the way I meant it! It took me a long time to speak well. My autism makes me very logical, and it took practice to translate that logical thinking in a way others understood. Thank you for sharing your thought (and support)!
Spent since last night with a migraine, and had a 5 hour work shift to get through with it. Coming home I took a proscribed pain med for the first time in months knowing over the counter would have no affect. I always feel for you when you're not well because I have chronic migraines and have been on a waiting list for a neurologist for four years now.
Good Girl Hippo!!! I love her and you guys rock!! I have been using your tutorials to help with training my service dog new things. Thank You so much for them. And I too have always used carrots as a reward. My German Shepard Sadie has always loved them. Keep Moving Forward Jaquie.
That was a big red chair. it was nice to see you having fun. I love the bowl Harlow eats from. Judd has such a bust schedule. I love the way you and Judd get along together.
I'm so happy you ate good today! I always watch your vlogs and seeing how well you've been doing really makes me root for you. I'm work in a pharmacy and I really enjoy seeing people with chronic illness eating well and enjoying life!
You are such a great trainer! I love watching you work with Har - you have a good grasp of using intermediate goals to move toward the end goal. Also, with regard to these Menchies issues, I know the two of you can overcome! ;)
I'm glad you found joy in your day even if it didn't start out great, alway find pleasure in the little things no matter how small. you inspire many Jaquie including me by never giving up.
You live in the same state as me and I have chronic nausea vomiting I go days without food sometimes watching you videos makes me feel like I'm not so alone and that I can live with this seeing you publicly share your struggles makes me feel not so ashamed to ask for help when needed hang in there it's hard
Haha, Harlow's excitement for food make it seems like you have starved her for days. 😂 And yes, it's always good to celebrate small victories, I get through hard days by celebrating what I get to do as well. I totally could feel your joy seeing you sort of "falling" into that big red chair, it looked so fun.
Long horns aren't the only ones with horns... You either take the horns off the other cows or genetically modify them to not have horns. Holsteins naturally have horns before they get burned off, Jersey's have horns, Hereford, Dexter, Brahman, SHorthorn, Scottish Highland, Watusi, Texas Longhorn, and much more too numerous to list all have horns.
I do that too, when I'm really sick I just stay home. but I pushed myself to go Thursday and found out I have a compound fracture in my neck, so I may have to have surgery on it.
I got laughter tears when she jumped up: I know that feeling of thinking "yeah this could work for once" then immediately regretting it!! She's so cute I'm glad she's such a good helper to you, and not just as a working dog but as a companion (even if she is putting half her weight on your j-tube!!). I'm having a bad syncope day today, I'm resigning myself to the sofa for the rest of the day cause it's just getting silly. #KeepMovingForward xx
Oops! I didn't go out today so no nose-dives for me thankfully haha. I'm glad it was an 'almost' though!! Hoping your walker helped you out there! (the pink is *very* pretty) xx
Great video as always your reaction to the big red chair was amazing!! ❤️ Harlow trying to run to the food was priceless lol I can't wait till you get the patches I made for you! ❤️
Did you lose control of your legs when you got out of the chair because you were happy and that triggered your POTs or just because they were tired? Love you!🦉😊
What a cute, fun vid! Thankyou for sharing. I so understand about crossing something off the list- I'm realistic( mostly) with myself now... One tick will do fine! All the best from Australia!
"Harlow hup" *Instantly regrets* Harlow thinking ooohhhh new place must make Jaquie uncomfortable Also YOU NEVER DRENCH YOUR SPAGHETTI WITH Parmesan cheese!!!!!! This is coming from a SICILIAN.......
Awww Harlow was so confused about being let on the couch! I have a leather couch as well, but I do leather conditioning treatments, about every 4 to 6 months, and the scratches come right out. It can seem like a lot of work, but because it's only 2 to 3 times a year, depending on how the leather feels and looks, it doesn't exacerbate my chronic illnesses too bad. Maybe something to look into if you like having Har on the couch. Also, one of mine is trained to only jump on the couch if there's a blanket laid out for her. She's a rescue, and we didn't teach her that, she just knew. Maybe that's also another thing Harlow could learn. :)
I subscribed because you inspire me so much. I hope you get a lot better. I don't have any sickness like what you do but even though I don't you are a great inspiration. Your videos tell us that you should never give up on life.
You know your chronically ill when... you have to cancel your drs appt bc you're too sick to go!! 🙋I've been there! hope you're doing better tonight and have a good restful sleep! ❤
That big red chair was so cool, lol. That little moment of panic when you slid all the way down to the back of the chair 😂 lmao. I don't know if this is a dumb question or not, but you said you do not get hungry because of your gastroparesis, but are you still able to recognize when foods taste good? It's kind of a complicated question, but are your tastebuds in anyway effected? 😬 So glad your POTS gave you a tiny break!!!
I still LOVE the taste of food! Of course I do not eat if I am overly symptomatic, I would be too nauseous. But I still like the taste of food, a lot, lol. I do not feel hunger but still enjoy taste.
I wanna sit in the big red chair! That was SO AMAZINGLY AWESOMETASTIC! Not to mention HILARIOUS! I live in Gainesville Florida and there is a store not far from here where they have a big chair that they talk about in the commercials. You guy's are SO ADORABLE!
Ruby, training is stressful. I would not be able to do it again with a pup with how my health is now. But Har has been a wonderful choice and the commitment was (and still is) worth it. You are working with a trainer, already setting yourself up for success! I wish you the best, hang in there!
Chronically Jaquie I have learned so much from your training. Its has helped me so much. I'm self training both my SD'S. LOVE YOU BOTH and HIPPO. I had to laugh from Friday's video. Hippo on couch.lol THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Have you guys ever thought about adopting a smaller lap pup? Someone for Harlow to boss around. 😂. I have two Chihuahua and they are my life. Specially when I'm not well, they cheer me up. Anyway, hope you feel better tomorrow. :)
Hi Jaquie, long time viewer and love your vlogs. I was wondering if you could give me some advice. I have bad nausea due to my anxiety so I was wondering if you have any 'natural' remedies you could recommend before I try drugs because you may have tried somethings I haven't. Thanks!
I tried: Ginger, seabands, OTC meds and so many other things that I cannot all recall. Those may help you! Unfortunately they did not help me, but worth a try!
lol! You looked like a toddler in that giant chair! I love it! 😂 Have you ever eaten a lemon cucumber? If you can get some, try them, they're yummy. Not really a dietary suggestion, more like a "hey I know you love cucumbers too, these are good" suggestion.
Chronically Jaquie no, they're yellow cucumbers that are sort of roundish and have a very slight lemony taste. I wish I could send you some but I couldn't do my garden this year.
+Chronically Jaquie I highly recommend checking out granulotion :) It's made just for feeding tube granulation tissue. I use it and I haven't had GT in foreverrrrr! Plus it's nowhere near as painful as the usual way to get rid of GT (silver nitrate sticks aka fire)
You are such a cool person I hope you are doing okay and I think it is really awesome that you got through 2 of your task thanks for making theses videos these are really cool to learn about your dog and you
Hello there! I'm sorry about your morning of yesterday.. hope today is better! I actually have a question, I was diagnosed with GP about a month ago, now, I'm not ever hungry. I force myself to eat due to the weight I've lost but it just makes me feel sick to my stomache and haven't been getting much sleep. I will say that I'm thankful I haven't actually thrown up, but it's still a bit frustrating. I hate to ask, but do you have any suggestions? I've tried ginger, that doesn't help much.. and I go back to school soon. if you have anything at all, it'd be extremely helpful. But if not that's okay too. Hope your day the best! #JacTheInspirationalBean
I honestly do not have much advice, I still struggle with my GP and no OTC or natural remedy I have tried ever helped. I use a heating pad for pain, but honestly my #1 piece of advice for any illness is to ensure you have a good doctor! I wish you the best
When you can't drive, can you use non-emergency medical transport to make your appointments? In Tampa Bay we have Care Ride (Pinellas), Metro Medical Transport (Manatee), etc. and they are often partnered with the public transport systems like PSTA, MCAT and HART. Sucks to miss an appointment just because you can't drive that day.
Hey, Jaq! This is not a diet suggestion but seeing Judd drown his spaghetti in parmesan cheese made me think of a family favorite dinner. Next to chicken and dumplings with homemade noodles, this has been one of my texture sensitive Aspie daughters favorite dinners. (Side note: it took us five years to build her up to eating a sandwich.) Only one of my family doesn't like it and that's only because that brother doesn't like Parmesan cheese. It's called Zucchini Bake, and while my recipe is for a family size, my parents have successfully been able to pare it down to a more manageable meal for two, with leftovers. It's a layered dish with zucchini on the bottom, a layer of boiled chicken or turkey (or leftovers or rotisserie...it's great for leftovers like that) chopped, then a layer of cream of chicken soup with a little milk and nutmeg, topped with a crumbled topping of bisquick, LOTS of parmesan cheese with a couple of eggs to hold it all together, parsley, flat leafed to taste and melted butter drizzled over everything. I've described it and the ingredients to see if it's something you think you and Judd might like. If you are, I'll send the actual recipe. If not, I promise my feelings won't be hurt. 😊
Chronically Jaquie sadly, yes, the zucchini does get mushy in this recipe. Summer squash (which is basically a yellow zucchini) has a slightly firmer texture, but I'd bet it'd set off your texture trigger too. They're both mostly water, like cucumber, but obviously with a totally different texture. Unrelated to the recipe, how do you feel about eggplant? Ripley, my Aspie daughter, loves zucchini in all forms, but still can't tolerate eggplant. Aspie me, loves both zucchini and eggplant but gags on sweet potatoes in any form. Just a random shiny question that ran out of my brain and onto the screen. You could probably do it without the zucchini layer and maybe put crumble crust on the top and bottom instead and have your choice of veggies on the side. Our favorite sides for this meal are cucumber, sliced tomatoes and/or bell pepper strips. We had huge gardens growing up, even when we lived in town. Our town was so small and open when we lived there, you could see our double row of pole beans from almost anywhere on the block and in parts of adjoining blocks! All that to say that it's a favorite summer dish for the sides as well as the bake itself. 😎
I watched a video of a... I think he was a Navy Seal Commander... giving a speech at a graduating class, I believe. Anyhoo, the first part of his speech is something that really stuck with me and that I've truly taken to heart. He said, not verbatim, that whatever you do, start your day by making your bed. It may seem like an minor task but that still sets a tone for the rest of your day. Come what may, you had a task, you completed it and no matter what the day holds you will always have that accomplishment to fall back on. And if you have a really bad day you will, at the very least, come home to a bed that's made. I admit I don't always make my bed ;-) but the sentiment of that part of the speech it something that I try to keep with me all the time. Even if the only thing I can do is just the one thing, big or small... that's one in the bag!
Well I really love vlogging/editing. It is easy for me to do as I simply document my day to share with y'all. As for editing, I can do small portions of it throughout the day while resting comfortably. Occasionally I will miss a day or the vlog will be late if I am having very hard health troubles, but that does not occur often. Just because I am chronically ill does not mean I cannot enjoy interests and hobbies :)
I have a question, so you were teaching Harlow to bark on command right, so if I see someone who has a service dog and it looks like the person is giving a command for the dog to bark, should I ask the person if they are okay or would that seem rude
You would honestly just have to read the situation, not everyone uses barking for the same thing. But I personally never mind when someone asks if I am okay :) Of course, everyone is different I cannot speak for others.
Does your insurance provide transportation to your appointments? Or is there another way you can depend on someone else to get to you there? It's a shame to miss them because you aren't able to drive.
6:08 Ooh, see how she likes them! :) 8:05 What kind of situations? 9:46 "Flavor" my foot! It's called cheese and spaghetti, rather than spaghetti and cheese. ;-) 10:52 I think Jaguie's right. that is a huge chair.
Sending lots of love from South Africa!🌍 Thank you for your videos! You helped me realise that using a wheelchair is not embaressing and just something that can help me♡ I love your videos! Where did you get your Medic alert bracelet? I have been looking for soo long, but can't find any for my chronic illnesses. ( I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and Fibromyalgia) hoping to hear from you!*
I have to ask you something, and it's not anything else than just that. I just started thinking about it when i saw that you take medicine to stimulate you apatite. Have you ever tried or thought about trying some kind of cannabis, THC or CBD product to help with the nausea?
Me neither, nowdays, so i am totally with you. But on the other hand, i don't take any meds that make me sick. If i still had to take chemo agents, i might consider doing anything to get rid of the nausea. I have never heard of CBD as a medication, other than from cannabis activists, but where i live you can get THC-spray that is not psychoactive. I also have a few chronic diseases, with some pain 24/7/365, but your stregth impresses me. I hope you know how strong you are! :)
This is NOT a diet suggestion :). However, I got an instant pot, and it helps me so much esp when I'm exhausted. Check it out, makes the chore of cooking so much easier for me. Love the training portion of your vids.
They can be used like a crock pot, and a rice cooker, but where they really shine is they are an electric pressure cooker. I can toss in a whole frozen chicken and it's cooked in an hour, don't even have to thaw or continue to check it. Set and done. Has a delay timer (which is the bomb), and mine also has a yogurt maker. Anyway this sounds like an ad, it's not. It just saves me a ton of time and way easier to cook when I'm sick (which is often).
"It's called flavor. Look it up." Haha! You could never have too much cheese on your spaghetti. :)
"Sitting. Sitting is good." haha i totally agree.
Judd and Hippo snuggling is the cutest thing ever😍😍
Omg, Harlow went right to the food after the first hand signal. Soooo adorable!! I'm so proud of her training!!! It looks like Harlow only listen to you and not your husband!! That's funny. And Judd really loves his perm cheese. Good workout you did with the big red chair!!
My grandpa died and I Suffer from depression and you are the only person to get me to smile. Love u and God bless
Katie Corbett not sounding rude but look up jacksepticeye he is funny as hell and will make you feel WAAYYY better
Katie Corbett sorry about your grandpa too btw
Katie Corbett talking to someone will get you through the pain, it won't go away but it will get better. I truly hope you're feeling a bit better, sorry for your loss. I never met my grandpa but was the last baby in our family to be given the last Chinese name by our grandpa.
Ricky Berwick's Son's Twin's Twin Jack is so funny!!
Your lucky that you knew your grandpa i never got to meet mine ): And i'm sorry that he died . love
That big red chair looked like a lot of fun! Glad Harlow's loving trying new components of her raw diet too. She's getting so good with her speak command! (Side note, I really love your blanket, it's super cute!)
Awe Hippo was just so excited to be on the couch she didn't know what to do. Yay for a productive day!
The squeal of glee when you slide back on the big red chair! As I watched I realized I had a huge smile on my face! I love your gleeful moments!
You are amazing with teaching Harlow. I love Harlow's little face when she looks at you and is focused. I bet your neighbors are happy your dog doens't bark loudly. I notice Harlow jumps when she barks, and I don't know if that is part of the goal or if that is just what she does. You are naturally talented with training a dog. Impressive!
I saw the thumbnail and went 'i know that chair!' If i ever go to Tampa Bay im definitely sitting in it Haha! Im sorry your symtoms are giving you a hard time today, but your less dependent on your walker as you said so sucess!! love you Jaquie! ❤️
Natalia judd filmt iT once
Rip
Sarina Frohn yeah judd filmed it on a vlog once thats where i knew it from.
Natalia I tried so hard to find the Vlog where Judd filmed it! But I couldn't remember which one is was.
Chronically Jaquie argh bugger! I'll try to see if i can find it
Hi Jaique! Your videos make me feel so much better! I had a huge headache from watching TH-cam all day, felt soo dizzy. I went off and watched your videos while resting and I got 10x better! You are my hero and saviour! :D thanks for allowing us to come with you along your adventure
Seeing you so happy makes me so happy ❤️
Hi Jacqui l watched your "no more diet sugestions" video and l was again so impressed by your speaking ability. You are so articulate and even talking about uncomfortable subjects, your ability to calmly explain things makes me understand. I also have chonic illness and watching your positivity is very inspiring. Your are my favourite TH-camr, Thankyou for putting all the effort for your viewers. 💚💛💜
So thankful you took the video in the way I meant it! It took me a long time to speak well. My autism makes me very logical, and it took practice to translate that logical thinking in a way others understood. Thank you for sharing your thought (and support)!
Chronically Jaquie I was so glad you spoke out for yourself. shows how strong you really are. 😉😉. the saying not all disability are visible.
Love watching y'all train together. Your connection is pawesome 😂😍🐶
Awe thanks!
Spent since last night with a migraine, and had a 5 hour work shift to get through with it. Coming home I took a proscribed pain med for the first time in months knowing over the counter would have no affect. I always feel for you when you're not well because I have chronic migraines and have been on a waiting list for a neurologist for four years now.
Good Girl Hippo!!! I love her and you guys rock!! I have been using your tutorials to help with training my service dog new things. Thank You so much for them. And I too have always used carrots as a reward. My German Shepard Sadie has always loved them. Keep Moving Forward Jaquie.
Glad my videos are helpful! Har loves her carrots, too :)
Its 2:45am in NZ I should be asleep but I had to watch this asap. Thanks so much for sharing your days with us 💕
Seeing you laugh makes me laugh! I love how you can push through your symptoms even though they are giving you a rough time
Oh my god, the thumbnail haha it's so cute. And oh my god, Harlow hahah just wants her food hhahha
It's a big red chair slide. Harlows not sure how to be on the couch.
That was a big red chair. it was nice to see you having fun. I love the bowl Harlow eats from. Judd has such a bust schedule. I love the way you and Judd get along together.
You remind me to appreciate the little things Jaquie and the big red chair things as well lol so glad you had fun :)
I'm so happy you ate good today!
I always watch your vlogs and seeing how well you've been doing really makes me root for you.
I'm work in a pharmacy and I really enjoy seeing people with chronic illness eating well and enjoying life!
You are such a great trainer! I love watching you work with Har - you have a good grasp of using intermediate goals to move toward the end goal. Also, with regard to these Menchies issues, I know the two of you can overcome! ;)
Oh Jaquie you are so funny, you looked tiny in that big red chair. You totally conquered it though , thanks for making me laugh I needed it.
I'm so hopeful that I can count on positivity to cheer me up in the morning, I love you!!!! ❤️❤️
I'm glad you found joy in your day even if it didn't start out great, alway find pleasure in the little things no matter how small. you inspire many Jaquie including me by never giving up.
Praying you're feeling better today! Loved watching you and Harlow doing some training! :)
You live in the same state as me and I have chronic nausea vomiting I go days without food sometimes watching you videos makes me feel like I'm not so alone and that I can live with this seeing you publicly share your struggles makes me feel not so ashamed to ask for help when needed hang in there it's hard

I totally could feel your joy seeing you sort of "falling" into that big red chair, it looked so fun.
Goldens act like we never feed them! :P
Chronically Jaquie so do Corgi 's. lol
Cute vlog today ☺️❤
But I'm still hung up on the fact that dogs don't know they have hind legs?? What? 😂
Long horns think they are a cow and don't have horns. You have to hold their horns so they don't hit you with them
Long horns aren't the only ones with horns... You either take the horns off the other cows or genetically modify them to not have horns. Holsteins naturally have horns before they get burned off, Jersey's have horns, Hereford, Dexter, Brahman, SHorthorn, Scottish Highland, Watusi, Texas Longhorn, and much more too numerous to list all have horns.
I do that too, when I'm really sick I just stay home. but I pushed myself to go Thursday and found out I have a compound fracture in my neck, so I may have to have surgery on it.
Oh no! I hope they can help you!
I love you so much jaquie!!! Also I'm very proud of you for making so far and staying strong!!!❤️💪
Thank you! :D I'm thankful for a great day despite it not starting out so well.
I got laughter tears when she jumped up: I know that feeling of thinking "yeah this could work for once" then immediately regretting it!! She's so cute I'm glad she's such a good helper to you, and not just as a working dog but as a companion (even if she is putting half her weight on your j-tube!!). I'm having a bad syncope day today, I'm resigning myself to the sofa for the rest of the day cause it's just getting silly. #KeepMovingForward xx
I had a bad syncope day today too, almost went head first into a rack of clothes at Target... Gotta laugh! Hope you are doing better.
Oops! I didn't go out today so no nose-dives for me thankfully haha. I'm glad it was an 'almost' though!! Hoping your walker helped you out there! (the pink is *very* pretty) xx
Great video as always your reaction to the big red chair was amazing!! ❤️ Harlow trying to run to the food was priceless lol I can't wait till you get the patches I made for you! ❤️
Did you lose control of your legs when you got out of the chair because you were happy and that triggered your POTs or just because they were tired? Love you!🦉😊
The excitement/laughter triggered some mild cataplexy, but I was also dizzy.
You should try teaching Harlow how to smile! What a fun trick it would be. Hope you feel better tomorrow.
Lol, I have never heard of that!
What a cute, fun vid! Thankyou for sharing. I so understand about crossing something off the list- I'm realistic( mostly) with myself now... One tick will do fine! All the best from Australia!
U love Harlow snuggling with Judd on the couch. Too cute
You made me laugh with your clumsiness in the big red chair 😂.
I love you Jaquie, I watch all your ads just to give you more support! I watch all of your videos, and I share. Love you Jaquie!
That is really nice of you :) Thanks!
Me too . I've heard it helps
"Harlow hup" *Instantly regrets*
Harlow thinking ooohhhh new place must make Jaquie uncomfortable
Also YOU NEVER DRENCH YOUR SPAGHETTI WITH Parmesan cheese!!!!!! This is coming from a SICILIAN.......
deamonfly6 i put parmasan cheese on my pasta, but its actual parmasan cheese, not the little bits you can find on the shelves that taste disgusting 😫
Great job!! way to get things done even though u were feeling kinda bad. U GO GIRL!!!
You need to get Harlow on the big red chair. Now that will be a great picture. Sending prayers. Enjoy your day.
Awww Harlow was so confused about being let on the couch! I have a leather couch as well, but I do leather conditioning treatments, about every 4 to 6 months, and the scratches come right out. It can seem like a lot of work, but because it's only 2 to 3 times a year, depending on how the leather feels and looks, it doesn't exacerbate my chronic illnesses too bad.

She's a rescue, and we didn't teach her that, she just knew. Maybe that's also another thing Harlow could learn. :)
found your videos at random, you are so likeable! Also you remind me of Tatiana Maslany, she's so adorable as well. hugs to your dog
I subscribed because you inspire me so much. I hope you get a lot better. I don't have any sickness like what you do but even though I don't you are a great inspiration. Your videos tell us that you should never give up on life.
You know your chronically ill when... you have to cancel your drs appt bc you're too sick to go!!
🙋I've been there! hope you're doing better tonight and have a good restful sleep! ❤
Even with your illness you are sometimes more productive than me!! :) you cooked a meal, trained with your dog, went out .. that's a big deal!!!
"it's called flavor, look it up" 😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha!!!! Harlow thought she was a cat, getting up in your lap!!
Congratulations on 45,000!! 🎉
That big red chair was so cool, lol. That little moment of panic when you slid all the way down to the back of the chair 😂 lmao.

Harlow issssss soooooooo cute 😭😭😭😭😍 i want a dog like her 💕💕☺️
My dog just finished her fist day of training and it's so stressful but my trainer said it should be :/
Ruby, training is stressful. I would not be able to do it again with a pup with how my health is now. But Har has been a wonderful choice and the commitment was (and still is) worth it. You are working with a trainer, already setting yourself up for success! I wish you the best, hang in there!
Thx :D
Chronically Jaquie I have learned so much from your training. Its has helped me so much. I'm self training both my SD'S. LOVE YOU BOTH and HIPPO. I had to laugh from Friday's video. Hippo on couch.lol THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Dudeeeee I saw that chair when I was over visiting friends in Brandon. I didn't get to sit in it though.
"it's called flavor look it up" yesss jud! a lot of parm cheese is the best on spaghetti! ✨👌
Harlow girl that was so funny she is like time to eat. I've been making my service dog wait for treats and her food like you do Harlow and it's easy.
Btw love your videos you are such a fighter and you are so strong ( so is Harlow)😂
It's so cute how har loves her Judd Judd!
Have you guys ever thought about adopting a smaller lap pup? Someone for Harlow to boss around. 😂. I have two Chihuahua and they are my life. Specially when I'm not well, they cheer me up. Anyway, hope you feel better tomorrow. :)
Dogs actually trap in a lot of allergens, so no, only Har for now :)
There was the cutest service dog pup in my training class today :Note not as cute as Harlow
Love watching your vlogs and will be getting a golden retriever pup in sept for help xx
there have been soooo many times i haven't been able to make it to my doctor appointments because i was feeling to sick. it sucks so bad.
Hi Jaquie, long time viewer and love your vlogs. I was wondering if you could give me some advice. I have bad nausea due to my anxiety so I was wondering if you have any 'natural' remedies you could recommend before I try drugs because you may have tried somethings I haven't. Thanks!
I tried: Ginger, seabands, OTC meds and so many other things that I cannot all recall. Those may help you! Unfortunately they did not help me, but worth a try!
Chronically Jaquie thank you! Will try ginger this week whilst I'm on holiday
lol! You looked like a toddler in that giant chair! I love it! 😂
Have you ever eaten a lemon cucumber? If you can get some, try them, they're yummy. Not really a dietary suggestion, more like a "hey I know you love cucumbers too, these are good" suggestion.
Is it like a lemon and a cucumber? I eat my cucumbers with lemon juice and olivev oil sometimes and love it! :D
Chronically Jaquie no, they're yellow cucumbers that are sort of roundish and have a very slight lemony taste. I wish I could send you some but I couldn't do my garden this year.
That is okay, I will look into it! I do not think I have ever seen them before, though.
Awwww let the baby eat. ;) Awww the dog laying with your husband is precious.
Didn't you hurt yourself when you fell in that chair lol🦉😆 Also how's your feeding tube incision area feeling now? Love you! Early squad😊
No, it didn't hurt! It was more of a shock at how far back I slid, lol! And my feeding tube is doing well other than some minor granulation tissue.
+Chronically Jaquie I highly recommend checking out granulotion :) It's made just for feeding tube granulation tissue. I use it and I haven't had GT in foreverrrrr! Plus it's nowhere near as painful as the usual way to get rid of GT (silver nitrate sticks aka fire)
My oldest niece does the same thing with parm cheese as Judd
You are such a cool person I hope you are doing okay and I think it is really awesome that you got through 2 of your task thanks for making theses videos these are really cool to learn about your dog and you
Hello there! I'm sorry about your morning of yesterday.. hope today is better! I actually have a question, I was diagnosed with GP about a month ago, now, I'm not ever hungry. I force myself to eat due to the weight I've lost but it just makes me feel sick to my stomache and haven't been getting much sleep. I will say that I'm thankful I haven't actually thrown up, but it's still a bit frustrating. I hate to ask, but do you have any suggestions? I've tried ginger, that doesn't help much.. and I go back to school soon. if you have anything at all, it'd be extremely helpful. But if not that's okay too. Hope your day the best! #JacTheInspirationalBean
I honestly do not have much advice, I still struggle with my GP and no OTC or natural remedy I have tried ever helped. I use a heating pad for pain, but honestly my #1 piece of advice for any illness is to ensure you have a good doctor! I wish you the best
When you can't drive, can you use non-emergency medical transport to make your appointments? In Tampa Bay we have Care Ride (Pinellas), Metro Medical Transport (Manatee), etc. and they are often partnered with the public transport systems like PSTA, MCAT and HART. Sucks to miss an appointment just because you can't drive that day.
I will need to look into those!
I do the same thing with my spaghetti Judd! Lol 😂😂😂. Can't go wrong with parmesean!
Hey, Jaq! This is not a diet suggestion but seeing Judd drown his spaghetti in parmesan cheese made me think of a family favorite dinner.
Next to chicken and dumplings with homemade noodles, this has been one of my texture sensitive Aspie daughters favorite dinners. (Side note: it took us five years to build her up to eating a sandwich.)
Only one of my family doesn't like it and that's only because that brother doesn't like Parmesan cheese.
It's called Zucchini Bake, and while my recipe is for a family size, my parents have successfully been able to pare it down to a more manageable meal for two, with leftovers.
It's a layered dish with zucchini on the bottom, a layer of boiled chicken or turkey (or leftovers or rotisserie...it's great for leftovers like that) chopped, then a layer of cream of chicken soup with a little milk and nutmeg, topped with a crumbled topping of bisquick, LOTS of parmesan cheese with a couple of eggs to hold it all together, parsley, flat leafed to taste and melted butter drizzled over everything.
I've described it and the ingredients to see if it's something you think you and Judd might like. If you are, I'll send the actual recipe. If not, I promise my feelings won't be hurt. 😊
It sounds good but I cannot handle the texture of zucchini D: Is it mushy at all?
Chronically Jaquie sadly, yes, the zucchini does get mushy in this recipe.
Summer squash (which is basically a yellow zucchini) has a slightly firmer texture, but I'd bet it'd set off your texture trigger too. They're both mostly water, like cucumber, but obviously with a totally different texture.
Unrelated to the recipe, how do you feel about eggplant? Ripley, my Aspie daughter, loves zucchini in all forms, but still can't tolerate eggplant. Aspie me, loves both zucchini and eggplant but gags on sweet potatoes in any form. Just a random shiny question that ran out of my brain and onto the screen.
You could probably do it without the zucchini layer and maybe put crumble crust on the top and bottom instead and have your choice of veggies on the side.
Our favorite sides for this meal are cucumber, sliced tomatoes and/or bell pepper strips.
We had huge gardens growing up, even when we lived in town. Our town was so small and open when we lived there, you could see our double row of pole beans from almost anywhere on the block and in parts of adjoining blocks!
All that to say that it's a favorite summer dish for the sides as well as the bake itself. 😎
Love your vids
You didn't burn the garlic toast this time! 🙊 hehe & glad u were able to enjoy it
It may be your feed. I had similar issues when I wasn't tolerating my last formula.
I watched a video of a... I think he was a Navy Seal Commander... giving a speech at a graduating class, I believe.
Anyhoo, the first part of his speech is something that really stuck with me and that I've truly taken to heart. He said, not verbatim, that whatever you do, start your day by making your bed. It may seem like an minor task but that still sets a tone for the rest of your day. Come what may, you had a task, you completed it and no matter what the day holds you will always have that accomplishment to fall back on. And if you have a really bad day you will, at the very least, come home to a bed that's made.
I admit I don't always make my bed ;-) but the sentiment of that part of the speech it something that I try to keep with me all the time. Even if the only thing I can do is just the one thing, big or small... that's one in the bag!
Do you think In your videos you can add more of training Harlow? Please
Love you Jaquie! Are people allowed to pet Harlow in public if you give permission? Thanks, your my idle☺️
If I give permission, but I rarely ever do. I like her to remain focused and do not want to risk her getting distracted.
how can you vlog everyday while having chronic illness?? especially when it feel so bad? how long did it take you to edit it?
Well I really love vlogging/editing. It is easy for me to do as I simply document my day to share with y'all. As for editing, I can do small portions of it throughout the day while resting comfortably. Occasionally I will miss a day or the vlog will be late if I am having very hard health troubles, but that does not occur often. Just because I am chronically ill does not mean I cannot enjoy interests and hobbies :)
We do it in small increments.
Harlow is so funny oh goodness I love her so silly
I have a question, so you were teaching Harlow to bark on command right, so if I see someone who has a service dog and it looks like the person is giving a command for the dog to bark, should I ask the person if they are okay or would that seem rude
You would honestly just have to read the situation, not everyone uses barking for the same thing. But I personally never mind when someone asks if I am okay :) Of course, everyone is different I cannot speak for others.
Does your insurance provide transportation to your appointments? Or is there another way you can depend on someone else to get to you there? It's a shame to miss them because you aren't able to drive.
I am looking into community options, like companies that provide transport for people with disabilities.
You are not alone there Joaquie
It's the little things that keep us going😉
I'm glad you're ok!
It's called flavor lol
6:08 Ooh, see how she likes them! :)
8:05 What kind of situations?
9:46 "Flavor" my foot! It's called cheese and spaghetti, rather than spaghetti and cheese. ;-)
10:52 I think Jaguie's right. that is a huge chair.
Sending lots of love from South Africa!🌍 Thank you for your videos! You helped me realise that using a wheelchair is not embaressing and just something that can help me♡ I love your videos! Where did you get your Medic alert bracelet? I have been looking for soo long, but can't find any for my chronic illnesses. ( I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and Fibromyalgia) hoping to hear from you!*
Road ID, I love them! :) And yes I totally see the wheelchair as a tool as well!
i love this video love seeing harlow train and you are such a cute person !!!
Can I ask how you taught Harlow Namaste?
You're the highlight of my day Jaquie!❤
I have to ask you something, and it's not anything else than just that. I just started thinking about it when i saw that you take medicine to stimulate you apatite. Have you ever tried or thought about trying some kind of cannabis, THC or CBD product to help with the nausea?
I personally will not use anything that can get me high. CBD maybe, but my doctors have not suggested it yet.
Me neither, nowdays, so i am totally with you. But on the other hand, i don't take any meds that make me sick. If i still had to take chemo agents, i might consider doing anything to get rid of the nausea. I have never heard of CBD as a medication, other than from cannabis activists, but where i live you can get THC-spray that is not psychoactive. I also have a few chronic diseases, with some pain 24/7/365, but your stregth impresses me. I hope you know how strong you are! :)
Love this
You look like a doll in that chair. If you can do one thing on your list of things to do on bad day, it's always a great day. 💜💜💜💜💜
that was the best moment in youtube history! 11:05
Keep going girl you got this
This is NOT a diet suggestion :). However, I got an instant pot, and it helps me so much esp when I'm exhausted. Check it out, makes the chore of cooking so much easier for me. Love the training portion of your vids.
MsPopRouge I've heard of these! But how are they different from a crock pot? I'll need to look it up!
They can be used like a crock pot, and a rice cooker, but where they really shine is they are an electric pressure cooker. I can toss in a whole frozen chicken and it's cooked in an hour, don't even have to thaw or continue to check it. Set and done. Has a delay timer (which is the bomb), and mine also has a yogurt maker. Anyway this sounds like an ad, it's not. It just saves me a ton of time and way easier to cook when I'm sick (which is often).
I LOVE YOUR VIDS KEEP IT UP (:
