I'm not sure how many of y'all were able to see the comment I pinned last night on yesterday's vlog, so I wanted to relay it again: You are all so amazing! We appreciate how much support you give us. You endure with us during the hard times and rejoice with us in the good times. We hoped that the treatment would work together, and now we celebrate the fantastic results... Together! I honestly cannot put into words our appreciate, just know my family and I truly thank y'all for joining us on our adventures.
Chronically Jaquie "jj
I agree with judd if you steam/boil brockli with carrots it taste like carrots.
it does taste different if you dont boil with carrots.
Judd, maybe you are allergic to carrots if you REALLY can't stand them. Im allergic to corn.
Chronically Jaquie I am so happy for you Jaquie. I might ask my doctor about this. I look so great. Girl you're glowing. Your video's give this old lady some new hope. I agree with th pain scale is not helpful for either. I have pass out from pain. You have a great husband. Judd's a keeper. Harlow the wonder pup pup. So funny eating her treat. Prayers ...hugs...love y'all🐾❤😍🙏😷💞🐶🐈🐾💝💖🙏💞🐾🐾🐾💟💟
Ahhhh.....I got that first morning where I slept in, woke up naturally and just got out of bed. When I changed Drs. And got on a new medicine and one medicine that I could take at my discretion....I cried. It was the first morning I could make breakfast for my kids and husband on time and not at 10 because it took hours to get my pain under enough control to be a mom. You brought back a good memory and feeling of that morning and so happy and elated that you got that as well
And sorry steaming carrots with broccoli does make it taste like carrots. 😐
What an amazing feeling!
Having a rough week but watching Harlow enjoy her frozen yogurt put a smile on my face! Congrats on having less pain!
You looked RADIANT in the car with hubby and dog. It is beautiful to see your inner self shine through, and you all looked so happy - everyone deserves to live pain-free, outside the fog of pain. Wishing you many, many more days like this. Hugs to all three of you!
My sisters golden comes up to us, puts his head by our face and burps, then walks away. Oh goldens!
Lol Harlow does that to Judd :P

Hey Jaq, I'm having an awful day healthwise. I woke up extremely groggy with a migraine and weakness and I had to miss college for it, but I'm reminding myself that you have to listen to your body and that your health comes before school (and anything else). You have really helped me emotionally in dealing with pain and illness and I'm so grateful for your vlogs and your channel. Today and yesterday's vlog especially made me happy to see you so happy and pain-free. I teared up as you were walking into Menchie's (not sure how to spell) by yourself without a walker. It made me so happy to see the independence you've gained and how happy you are to be able to have such minimal pain. ❤
So sorry you are having a hard time, but glad you are doing the right thing by putting your health first. Feel better!
I didn’t realize how much your pain was the inhibitor if your walking. I always thought it was just your POTS. So glad to see your improvement
I am so astounded as well! I still cannot do long distances because of my POTS but I am so free to move around my house!
Carrots...yeah, I'm afraid they do taint broccoli a bit.
I watch the videos at 1.5 or 2x speed, so when Harlow goes after that frozen yogurt it looks insane! :)
Judd wins on this. Carrots do have a distinct taste and if you don't like it you can taste it more. Its like a smell too, if you dont like it you will pick up that smell before anyone else. Like BO..lol
That's like cilantro. It overpowers the taste of everything it touches! Gross!
Hi
That's awesome the pain is still at bay and great to see you get some mobility and energy!
Was so amazing to see you so happy and feeling so good!
I am so SO glad you're doing better! I have been watching your videos for a couple of months now and they have brought me so much strength and inspiration! Day before yesterday I was finally officially diagnosed with dysautonomia and POTS after over a year of struggling. Thank you for teaching me and others that we are not helpless and also that it's ok to ask for help when you need it. Thank you for being wonderful! Love to Judd and Harlow too
I am so glad you finally have the answers you deserve! I really hope you can get into an effective treatment plan asap.
Chronically Jaquie thank you so much!!!
It's so nice to see you happy and feeling better
seeing you so happy and carefree made me smile so much!
I'm so glad you're getting some relief! I really hope this continues to work. ♥
I love to see you being able to have such a big and joyful smile!
I can see it in your eyes that you're doing much better! So glad that the Ketamine is helping!
You seem so happy and you can tell that it’s from the lack of pain !! So glad to see you happy
Happy to see you feeling better. :D
I didnt know it was possible to love someone youve never met so much.
You, Judd, & Harlow seriously make my day.
So excited for you! I pray the ketamine keeps working really well
This is too adorable! Feel better soon!
It makes me so happy to see you up and walking with less pain.. We need to be greatful for whatever we get and you are truly a motivation for many.. You have a beautiful personality me and my kiddos love you lots xoxo
I am so glad you are getting whatever relief this procedure brings I just hope that it continues cause it was so wonderful to see you refreshed and ready to enjoy the day xxx
I love seeing such a big smile on your face! You smile often but this was just so real and uninhibited!! I'm praying this treatment has long term relief for you. It's so wonderful seeing you so excited like this. Love you Jaquie, Judd and Harlow! 💪🙌🐶
It warms my heart to see you so upbeat and happy! I'm so glad you're getting the benefits you need from the injections! Great vlog!
I love seeing you not in so much pain and love seeing you improve
Amazing how much better you are doing !
Love to see you smiling Jaquie
I love the headband with your shirt. So glad the treatment is going well. We're here you
Aw. I hope the effects from the Ketamine last for a while. I'm always keeping you in my thoughts!
Me too! Even if I am not pain free, I will take less pain for sure
Wow - the improvement in your mobility and enthusiasm is incredible - Wow.
I am so amazed at my improvement as well!
I cried so many happy tears watching this video! I'll be praying for continued success with your pain! I am underway in getting my treatment and seeing you have some relief gives me hope! ❤️❤️❤️
I just love your family dynamic! Thank you for bringing a smile to my day! #keepmovingforward #spoonie 💗💗💗
NO CARROTS! Judd I think you are AWESOME I so happy that Jackie is feeling better!
I am home off work due to falling between a trailer and the doc. I tore muscules in my left thigh broke my left ring finger and tore legiments in my knee. I am still greatful because my pain will go away. I did think of you as I was sitting in ER crying like a baby. I just kept saying keep it moving forward>>>>>
love from Illinois.
Oh my goodness, how painful! I really hope you have a quick and smooth recovery!
Good morning to you, Judd and Harlow🐶💜🌴
You all make me smile every time I watch you.
You are such a good spokesperson, Jacqui. Everything you say is so well-organized and fluent--you never interrupt with "um" or "you know" like most speakers do. Do you use an outline or a script when you're speaking? You're also amazingly upbeat when you have every right not to be. I'm sure you're an inspiration to many.
I do not have a script or anything for the vlogs, I just speak like that normally haha people say I sound like a dictionary :P
Hi! I've been following you guys for a while now, and I love your vlogs. You're such an inspiration! Stay strong
Oh I am so happy for you three!! You look fantastic Jaquie, your laugh is so infectious and Harlow ... well, just Harlow!!
I am not a chronic pain warrior, but I LOVE your vlogs and seeing you so happy and energetic and walking around has MADE MY DAY! Stay awesome!
Hey jaquieee greatings from Italy!! :) keep moving forward ;)
It was so amazing watching you walk into Menchies with only Harlow for counter balance! I sincerely hope that the pain stays diminished for you x
Thank you!
Jaquie your journey is teaching us so much. your post special part of my day keeps me humble. those things you Jaquie are counting special forgive me for saying, are the same things I take for granted every day. maybe that's why I watch you? nevertheless I know you're special.
I am so happy that you are feeling better. I loved Harlow's face when Judd moved her food away from her was so cute. I could just tell what she was thinking was "dad not fair give it back" 😝
The burps are soooo funny I have a pitbull/Lab service dog and he just passes gas. But I love him.
I am so happy you can live your days without pain for however long I really like your little family
Yep, Judd is correct, the carrots DO change the flavor of the broccoli. I love both of them, but cooking them together definitely changes the flavors.
Also, my Belgian Shepherd mix, Raven, used to come yo to me, give me his "I'm Mama's GOOD boy" face, then burp right in my face.
I wish I had known about slow feeders back then...Belgians WOLF their food!!!
I hope this doesn't sound creepy, but I love watching you feed Harlow. It isn't responsible for me right now to have a dog (we have 6 aging rescue cats and are recovering from bad financial difficulties and their needs must come before my wants) so I really enjoy your day to day with Harlow; same with Janeice (I must learn to spell her name. Dyslexia, something you and me are NOT buds) and Orion and Yori.
I have tons of great stuff to say about NO PAIN and how incredible it is to function on Level 1 rather than 5 or 6, plus the OMG SLEEP!!!
But I was distracted by the cuteness of Harlow.
Just for you though...❤❤❤ pink love from Michigan!!!
Called it! You did sleep like a baby :D
Totally did!
glad you are doing better. everyday i can't wait to see how you are doing. so funny how much judd hates carrots.
Ah, yes! Sleeping well when pain is less! I'm so happy you slept well!!! After my second jaw surgery, I had 13 screws removed from my mandable and I slept for a solid nine hours and woke up happy, with a very minor headache (compared to a debilitating migraine) and able to talk (albeit only a few words) for the first time in three weeks!
seeing you walk without your walker or wheelchair made me so happy. im glad that ketamine is giving you the relief that you need
I’m dying while watching Harlow devour that ice cream! She was hilarious! 😂
You look so happy today!!!!!!!
Jaquie it is like a one year old baby at birthday party with their first cake. and happy to hear you are feeling better.
It's so great that u found relief :) hope it stays for a long time!! Also ur right about th broccoli-carrot thing Jaquie- carrots don't affect th flavor of broccoli!
Lol thank you I totally agree!
It is so great to see you walking without your walker and to eat some ice cream. Incredible! I wish you all the best from the deepest of my heart (sry for my bad English I'm from Germany) :)
You are such an inspiration! My mom has chronic pain and I'm going to tell her about you. Harlow is a BEAUTIFUL, funny, and AMAZING! What a blessing! Oh yeah, if/when carrots and broccoli are cooked together, it makes the carrots stink like the broccoli. So Judd, eat the carrots, because they taste like the broccoli!😀
Those potatoes you made sound awesome! I'll have to try them!
Adorable Harlow!
I understand your pain lvl I have pain every day and I have been trying to work in my garden a little but it is slow going becuase of my pain. I am 38 and I know that you are younger but we are both to young to be in pain.
Glad you are feeling better. How is mom doing? Haven’t seen her in a while. Sending prayers!!
Judd is correct in saying that carrots cooked with Broccoli makes it all taste like like carrots...yuck!!!
Jaquie just something special about you:-)
You look amazing!!
❤️🌈❤️🌈❤️🌈❤️🌈❤️ I'm so happy for you. Yes pain really messes with restorative sleep and we done even realize it. I'm happy you got a great nights sleep! Loved the Harlow footage too. ❤️❤️❤️
Harlow's expressions after she finished her Menchie's treat were so cute!! :)
I'm glad your doing so well! Gassy Harlow is the best lol
YASS to the pain scale! I sound over dramatic at times, but when you're close to blacking out from pain, it's really not a "10". It's more like a 20. Anyway, glad you're feeling some pain relief and can't wait to see how the ketamine works. My mom has infusions and it's really helped her... p.s. Is CBD oil legal down there?
Awsome your doing great just please be careful and take it really easy ..im crying and celebrating with you last few vlogs 😂😂💗💗💟💟
When you walk with the pull strap on Harlow your shoulder drops a bit. Ideally you wouldn't want this. You might find a slightly longer pull strap (say 10cm or so or longer if you preferred) much more comfortable for your joints. So great you can finally use her help again! I run a business where a lot of what we make is pull straps (not so useful to you as I'm in Australia) but measuring for a strap can be hard and you don't want too short as it changes your whole alignment how you walk. In your case it's not a major shoulder drop but if you were able, trying a longer strap would be beneficial. It's so exciting to see you and Harlow together without other needed mobility aids :D :D :D
My service dog is a GSD and she likes to come up and burp in my face haha it's so gross but funny. She also lays in bed with her bum next to my ear and farted in my ear a few times which was terrifying.
Oh my gosh I have so many comments about dogs burping in people's faces! Why do they do this, lol it is so odd! :P I will look into that length, thank you!
I can't helpbut lauggh cuz judds face whenever he gives her the yummy treat lmao 😂😂
Sorry Judd. I've had plain broccoli and I've had broccoli with carrots. They don't taste different! 😂
THANK YOU!
Kya- Ken! I'm with you, too. I don't think it tastes differently
I agree with Judd about the carrots in the same pot. I love them though. 🥕👍
aneurysm lol! I love it when Judd is on he always says the funniest things! Not that aneurysms are funny just the way he says it
Judd his husband goals 💗
You look so much better I'm so happy to see your happy plz respond it would mean so much to me I just love u so much
Oh no! I was so hoping it would last longer and I have my fingers crossed for you. You deserve to have a pain free existence. Actually the carrot is tasted when cooked with broccoli. Sorry hun but Judd is right. Take care.
It is a Cocker Spaniel setting to. I have to hand feed Tucker, because he eats fast. Dog burps are cute
Judd, If you cook carrots with broccoli, the carrots taste like broccoli. ....It's all a matter of perspective. 😂
I did the injections for lower lumbar pain twice since 2006 when I injured myself and became disabled.
The first really helped *ALLOT*, but...
It only lasted about 3 weeks. The second time was a *NIGHTMARE!!!* The injection hurt so bad I almost ripped the exam table pad in half!
I was scared to death after, because I almost couldn't walk after, and it took 5 hours before I could walk normally.
This time, it did nothing for the pain. The shot was given to me in 2007, and to this day I'm partially numb in my left big toe over it.
To me, the risk outweighs the benefits, so no more Ketamine shots!...
Oh my goodness! My doc sedates me so I do not move at all, and uses x-ray guidance to find the right spot. I am sedated with Ketamine and injected with Toradol. I am SO sorry it went to badly! I can understand why you no longer do it.
that's one of the reasons why I don't want any injections in my lower spine.. everyone I know has had major problems...
Oh I know all about the X-Ray video assistance, I sat there and watched, LOL! The ONLY sedation I was given was a Valium.
I can see why they would sedate while doing the cervical spine because way too much could go wrong in a big hurry.
I didn't mean to scare you, just share my experience.
Mine was injected at the L-5/S-1. It could be that there isn't a need for sedation, I don't know.
But what happened was, she was in a hurry that day, I was her last patient, she let the needle slip, and it nicked the sciatic nerve, and caused the partial numbness in my left big toe.
And no, I didn't sue anyone...😉
After the second one I got to researching. I found that prolonged use of these injections actually case disk degeneration, as well as creating scar tissue.
The first was awesome! The second almost killed me...
I just don't like the idea of treatments like this.
Jaque, I *KNOW* what you're going through with the chronic pain.
Before my first major back surgery I had already decided that if it didn't take the pain away, I was going to eat a bullet, seriously...
The pain was so intense, I couldn't sleep, and would sit in my chair, needing to go to the bathroom so bad, but knew what pain just getting up, walking to the bathroom, and sitting down would cause.
Then, once on the toilet, I didn't want to get up, because of the intense pain the trip back to my chair was going to be.
On a good day, I might get 2 hours of sleep, maybe 3...
When I went in and had the first injection it was a miracle!!!
The pain was *GONE!!!*
I was getting ready to go back to work for Christ sake!
Then, 3 weeks later, 2 days before I was to start back to work, I was woke up from a sound sleep by the old pain. Only this time it was *WORSE!!!*
I called an ambulance and went to the hospital.
They gave me some pain meds and I scheduled another injection the next day.
This time *EVERYTHING* went wrong...
That's when I arranged for the first back surgery, a Discectomy.
Since then, while not anywhere near as bad, I've had to struggle with the pain on a daily basis.
My advice to anyone is to not get them on a regular basis.
It's a quick fix, to a much more major problem...
No. Broccoli and carrots steamed together totally tastes different! And while I don’t mind it, it does taste different
I think my taste buds must be wonky lol
Having broccoli and carrots taste different together but when it's just broccoli it tastes so much better
That is great that the treatment helps you i can tell when you have alot of pain because when you talk you do not move your lower jaw much and now you seem to have full movement that is good
Yes it is hard to move freely when you are in pain, and now I can do so much easier :)
Awesome dog glad your feeling better
With the injections in the back and neck, you should expect to have some discomfort and stiffness and pain for the first 5-6 days afterwards as the meds settle into the joints and then you will feel the full effects between 1-2 weeks out from the injections. I live with chronic pain every day in my life as well and its always amazing to have something done to lessen the pain and i've actually had times that I've cried in response to the relief after having had a long spell of having to function through almost unbearable pain. being a single mom with 2 kids I have to fight through it no matter what and it makes me feel like a normal human to be able to move without feeling like i'm being ripped apart every day
It is nice to be able to relate! I actually do not have the stiffness anymore, I used ice packs and that helped. I am really grateful for the relief and hope it lasts a while, but we will have to wait and see.
I agree with Jud!
Inflammation in injections sites are grrr argh. I have chronic back pain, likely switching to a new treatment plan after seven years and two surgeries to manage pain. God bless you all.
Lol, you know it's bad when you know your dog so well that you wait for there burp at the end. That's how my dog is too.
The anticipation waiting for the hippo burp and then she pulled through 😂🐕💗 silly girl
Question about your backpack! So I have hEDS too and I remember seeing in your intro video that your ribs are one of your problem areas, which mine are too. In fact that’s actually what let me to a diagnosis. Anyway, does the backpack bother you in any way in terms of ribs subluxing? I can’t wear anything on my back. :/
I was just curious how you do it haha
So happy that all is going well! I have a question, if you could choose a chronic illness you could cure what which would it be?
Do you have a video on how you trained Harlow? I'm thinking about getting a dog and training it to be a service dog .. I feel a service dog could do a lot for me, as I can't take meds for all of my chronic issues
Mommyof3xo your doctor has to prescribe it to you
Check out my service dog 101 video (:
I laughed so much when Harlow burped as you predicted 😂
You seem way better!😋
Love you guys sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much
Sorry Jaquie I am with Judd on the carrots :P but I'm glad your pain is so reduced, praying it lasts a good long time. And Harlow.... I call that the "I swear they never feed me" style of eating :D My Rottweiler does that too.
Lol! My SDiT burps all the time! 🐶🤣 And I agree with Judd on the carrots😉😝
That ranch hahahah, Am I the only person who was thinking about Harlow while you showed the ranch?
Well done just don't over do it.
😂 I love watching Harlow eat her frozen yogurt so much, it's adorable.
