Jaquie, I’ve been silently watching your TH-cam for almost two years now. I found you through my soul searching during my melanoma diagnosis. But this post is not about me. I wanted to share that your positivity and faith has greatly helped me to discover my own. My prognosis has greatly improved, and I live a normal life now. But I continue to keep up with your story. I wanted to share a bit of wisdom I was given during those hard days. Being positive and pushing through is a wonderful outlook. But at the same time letting your fear, anger, and frustrations out is also healthy. Never keep it bottled inside, let the emotions out in a productive manner, this includes having a good long cry. It’s your body’s way of relieving that stress. It’s ok to even share that frustration here on your channel. It just proves one thing we all love about you. You are simply human.
How are you doing with having melanoma? I knew someone who got the same diagnosis and unfortunately passed away. She was 33. My grandpa was diagnosed as well at 90 and passes away 6 months later.
I'm right there with you Jaquie. Recovering from my brain surgery. The hardest part I think is when you hit that wall of depression and anxiety. Or just the wall of despair and fear. I'm thinking of you every day. You are my inspiration to keep looking forward. It's gonna be ok.
Jackie you are so normal in your feelings. This is exactly how I feel fighting diabetes, severe anemia and stage 5 kidney failure. Praying for you. Stay strong, stay faithful he is all powerful.
You are still moving forward despite this setback. Once you're out of the hospital, you'll be miles ahead of where you started. My heart is with you and I am hoping for a speedy recovery.
I am so sorry Jaquie. Sending prayers that you get well very soon and stay out of the hospital. You are so strong and give me so much strength. So glad you show all the real sides of chronic illness.
I’m so sorry Jaquie! I hope you start feeling better soon. You have a brand new house to look forward to. I thought Judd was sweet saying that’s what you do for the people you love. My husband has been my rock thru my 2 hospital stays this yr (and every day of course). I’m glad you have a support system. It’s totally ok to take a break from TH-cam so you can get better. You don’t need our permission. You do you!! Praying for you!!
Thanks for sharing such raw emotions, & letting others know that they are not alone on their health journeys. I know how frustrating it can feel to be missing out on fun and important occasions
I am so sorry! I really hope you get better soon. I just had some really bad flares last night so I completely empathize with you right now. Sending positive thoughts to you for a good recovery!
Jacquie, this is so emotional. I don't have chronic illness but I am a breast cancer survivor (10 years this month) so I can empathize with how overwhelmed you feel. I suffer with anxiety/depression as well and I understand how every added issue, whether big or small, can throw you over the edge. My advice is to take stock of what's really important and what things are just minor inconveniences in the big picture. I know the house, the moving, the unpacking, the transitioning from hospital to home can be a lot to handle, but if you put it in perspective, those things can be put on the back burner. They will all work themselves out. Put all your energy into your recovery from your current health issues and your discharge from the hospital. I'm glad you found a reasonable pain management doctor. That's so important. And Judd is ABSOLUTELY a keeper. You guys make a great couple. It's obvious how much love flows between the two of you. I'm thinking about you and so hoping that the next vlog will show you out of the hospital and in your new house. Love you all.
I firmly believe that all of us viewers of your vlogs want you to put yourself first, even if it means that we'll be missing your videos. May you find the support you need in Judd, Harlow, and the rest of your family.
Hang in there. Huge hugs and healing prayers for you. I was in the hospital last year for 6 weeks so I know how hard it is. You’re a very strong woman and you will feel better soon.
You got this sweetie, you can't give up now! I know the feeling way to well! Try and think of it as just another bump in the road. I'm 58 years young and have been fighting chronic pain for many years. It has keep me from many of special moments w/ my family and friends, times I'll never get back, you have to just keep FIGHTING!!! Remember your going to get though this! Much love and prayers to you and your family✝️💖🕊
My heart goes out to you, it is so frustrating to be in the hospital and not feeling well. Add to that having other responsibilities that you want to be part of and it can be overwhelming. Take your time and definitely take care of yourself. When you feel better and have you health under control we will be here. Sending you healing prayers and hugs.
Jaquie - Girl, you’ve got this! I know it is hard to stay positive, especially when you are missing out on important life events, but you are doing everything you can to live your best life & sometimes that means taking a step back. So glad that you have Judd, Hippo, & all your other family & friends to help support you. As a caregiver of a chronic illness kiddo, I can tell you that the determination you warriors have inspires us on our hard days too. Sending you positive vibes to help you push through the rest of your stay. Hopefully you will be home soon.
You’re not alone in your suffering, Jaquie. Lately I’ve been crying every day; can’t stop. I also try to be as upbeat as possible but hey we’re human. I hope things get better soon for you and for me.💗🌷💗🌷💗
I’m so sorry you’re having so many issues. It’s a bump in the road, you got this girl! There will be more amazing opportunity’s ahead. If you need to take time off vlogging to heal, we understand! Sending good vibes ✨💕
I'm so sorry sweetie. I have a lot of chronic illnesses and disabilities and pain. I just spent 11 days in the hospital recently and found out I also have extreme anemia on top of everything else. U r not alone. I feel ur pain and frustration, and when my body turns on me it's never just one thing. Everything feels like it comes crashing down from all sides. I'm praying for you. Just know that u inspire me and make me feel not alone.
Setbacks are SO discouraging. My heart aches for you, Jaquie. Your faith, your loving family, and excellent medical care will get you through this 🤗❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m only at 2:25 and already feel like crying I wanna jump through the screen and give you a hug I wanna sit by your side and support you. It’s hard to see someone who is such a positive light in your life go through a hard time, #Prayers4Jaquie we love you Jaquie and we’re there beside y’all 💯
So sorry to hear about everything! I'm glad you have your videos to vent to us. I'm so glad you are taking time to help your emotional self care. Never feel sorry for preparing yourself emotionally to keep going. You're so strong! And you know when you aren't strong He is strong for you. 🙏
This is just a small bump in the road. You got this. You are an inspiration to many people on this platform because you always fight back. You let nothing hold you back. You got your first job and your now eating since you've gotten medical MJ. Half the people I know would complain and not fight back. You are a warrior. You give me hope.
Authenticity and acknowledging emotions (even when they’re far from upbeat or glamorous) is so admirable and needed. Thank you for always being a courageous example for all of us, whether we have a chronic illness or not. I definitely relate as someone with chronic illness (Long QT Syndrome, severe Gastroparesis, etc.). Sometimes the treatments we need in order to stay alive make us feel less alive each second, but I hope you never forget that sharing your truth from every angle, knowing it may be misunderstood, doesn’t make you negative or a gloomy influence. It makes you resilient and human, and you are not fighting this alone. Giving up for the day and resting isn’t the same as giving up entirely, it just allows you to reset yourself to keep going. 💜
I don’t have a chronic illness but I have followed you for awhile now.. just felt drawn to your videos.. I’m so heartbroken to hear the news you have passed :( it feels like a bad dream.. RIP.. ❤️❤️
When you are in the moment, you can't see all the good days you've had, and the light at the end of the tunnel is really dim. Knowing it's there is half that battle, so you are miles ahead of so many, as you say just keep moving forward...you got this!!! You remind this community that they are not alone, I'm glad so many were here to remind you of that too, knowing it doesn't always mean you feel it so I hope you are feeling it today. Stay strong and stay focused, there is a beautiful new house at the end of this particular road, it needs you strong and healthy to make it your own!!!!
Oh no. I'm so sorry you have to deal with all of this. I know the horrors of anaphylaxis all too well. Sharing your experience even through this difficult time takes strength I don't know if I'd be able to summon. I'll be praying, in my own way, that all of this resolves quickly and you can find a good balance again and enjoy settling into your beautiful new house with your beautiful family. Now... take some much needed time for yourself and snuggle lots of Hippo and hug your hubby. Much, much love and many hugz to you all from across the pond. Love/ Your very own Swede, Helena.
It’s so nice to see someone in pain and knows what it’s like to be pushed down so much. I hate knowing someone is in pain. But I am glad I am not alone. My pain is caused from mental issues and physicals ones that cause me to not being able to move. And always getting yelled at for my grades because school is hard enough to do without pain but including it makes it sooo much harder. And having a family that doesn’t believe makes it’s so much worst I wish my family was like hers. Caring always able to be there.
It's so hard to see you struggling this bad mentally. Chronic Illness is so unpredictable and you have no idea what's around the next corner, you can never predict what's next. We're all rooting for you and we all know how strong you are. These downs are eventually going to be up's and we're all anxiously waiting for you to start getting back to your baseline. You're one of the strongest people we've ever seen. You need time to yourself to heal and recover from this unpredicted MRSA and hospitalization. Your church is behind you, your family is behind you, your subscribers are behind you. This is a brutal time to be going through all of this, it's supposed to be a happy time in your new home, celebrating Easter but sadly you're stuck inpatient. Just remember that this is where God meant you to be at this very moment, safe in the hospital. He knows you can't handle all this on your own at home, and that's okay. Soon, you'll be able to enjoy your new home without these constant anaphylaxis reactions, pain and infection. Soon, you'll be cozy where you want to be but for now, know we're all on your side. We're all sending you positive vibes and thoughts! *We know you can do this! * . Keep on fighting, we're rooting for you and we support every decision you make. Focus on yourself and start healing! We love you Jaquie!
Sending positive energy your way girl, I’m so sorry you are feeling defeated and overwhelmed. It’s okay to feel this way just let it out and let the emotions take their corse and you will get through this. We love you so much !
Praying for you sweet lady! Praying for peace and comfort during these times. When we cannot handle life, that is when we need to lean on God to carry us and pull us through the situation. Keep the faith, rest and get back to baseline as best you can 💕 and get ALL the hippo therapy
Oh Jaquie, I’m so very sorry. You just take time to grieve the loss of time and activities. You are always amazingly positive for all you have to endure. You’re entitled to feel how you feel today. Just know you have tons of people that are lifting you up in prayer! ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️
Oh Jaq you have every right to feel down!!!! Cry, scream, just let it all out!!! I know you try to be strong all the time but sometimes you just need to sit and cry. You have to be so overwhelmed right now and no one can blame you for that. Stay strong, keep pushing and hopefully you will make it out in time for the closing on the house. If not, not worry about it, the house isnt going anywhere and your health is more important right now! Praying you make a quick turn around and start going in the right direction!!!!!!!!
Oh Jaquie, I've been in that mental state so many times. That one step forward two steps back. It's very defeating and sometimes you just have to let the depression and frustration come, have a good cry and then move on when you can. *hugs*
God bless you, Jacquie. Praying for God to minister to you and for his presence to comfort you. You are such a warrior and you are going to get through this battle. I know you have to feel so weary and discouraged and that is okay. It is painful to watch you go through this suffering over and over but we are so thankful for the inspiration your share with us in the way you don't quit. Don't you give up. There is hope. You are doing everything right. Praying praying praying for grace and mercy and healing to come quickly. Love to you and hubby and hippo and mama.
Jacquie, so sorry you are going through this. This was 4 days ago, so hopefully you're feeling good now. Sounds like to top it off, you feel pressure about the house. Somehow you need to focus on all the positive aspects going on in your life. Your blessings. Lots of them. Keep reminding yourself of everything you have to be grateful for. God bless and I do hope and pray you are in your new home with your family or at least shortly will be.
I'm sorry you're struggling so much, hope you're feeling better now. Take care off yourself sweety, wishing you and your family all the best. I'll be sending good vibes your way and hope you'll be in your new house soon.
You are not alone! I'm going thru a simular situation myself. I have eds, MCAS, pots, and rheumatoid arthritis. I'm not hospitalized but mostly bed bound from a mast cell flare and RA flare. We are closing on our house today. My hubby and I have 3 kids, they each have eds, MCAS, and pots. So the packing and chaos is being handled mostly by my husband and my parents. I have been feeling down a bit myself, I can hardly get to the bathroom myself, let alone try and pack a box. I'm sleeping most my time, but thankfully my home med protocol is keeping from being impatient. I understand your frustration, and you will get thru this. Sometimes we have to fall back a few steps before moving forward again, but we always move forward. Lots of love and gentle hugs!
It's okay to feel the emotional side of this round of your hospital stay and your chronic illness. A good cry is a good release and, there's no shame. Let it out, give it to God, adjust your crown and keep moving forward ❤️
Thank you for this video. You're always so positive, I've often wondered if you have the same frustrated and overwhelming moments that I face. It's hard for me to explain to others what it's like to be in those moments. You've done that beautifully. Stay strong. You'll get through this, and your support team is happy to care for you (it's not a burden). Thanks again for this video that I will share with my own family so that they can better understand how I'm feeling during the bad times (because I don't have your strength to explain myself).
Jaquie, I'm hoping this day gets better for you. I know Wednesday is a big day and I hope you are able to get some rest before the closing. Sending you love and hugs and prayers.
I am so sorry sweetie. I wish there was something I could say that would make you feel better. I know there is not. Just know that we all love you and we are all praying for a speedy recovery. I have been watching your videos for over a year now and I am here to tell you, you are the strongest person I know. You WILL get through this and quickly. Anyways keep moving forward. You got this!!!!!
Sometimes it hard to see the forest through the trees. You have the right to feel what you feel. You have support. I know how you feel, I fight pain and mental illness.
11 days oh Lord God bless u Jaq don’t know if I could handle that. You are so full of grace u give me strength seeing u so strong thru this Im terrified to be stuck in the hospital fighting insurance for back surgery now im strong enough for so I’m praying God will take away anxiety about the hospital. Thank u for blessing us w your insight it’s inspiring!! Had 8 surgeries last year thankfully all outpatient!
1 second, 1 minute, 1 step at a time-it may seem like ur going backwards, but there are some small victories-like getting the surgery over and done with!! It may not seem like it, and that ur not moving fast-but you are moving forward-maybe in tiny ways-but is forward!! As I often say/remind myself/ tell myself-“I’m sure it will work out in the wash”! We are ABSOLUTELY here with you-and are here to support you 1000%. Take whatever time you need to do what you need to do-we will be here for you whenever you come back!! Have you thought about seeing a social worker/someone to talk things over with in the hospital?-I find it really helps when I’m struggling-and feeling I’m getting nowhere fast. You are going thru a TON right now-a new house (just to name 1 thing, among so many others) is considered a MAJOR life stressor-and that’s for people that are “normal”/and don’t suffer the challenges you do on a day to day basis! Please be kind to yourself, and know that we are cheering you and your family on, every step of the way!
You are the strongest person i have ever seen. I know you will get through this. Just take it one moment at a time and you will see that light one the other side before you know it.
It’s ok. It really is ok to feel beaten down and hopeless. You are doing all you can to get better. Sometimes it’s better just to ride the wave and let your body tell you what it needs. Be kind to yourself and relax, sending you healing energy my friend 💕🌻
Please promise not to over do it when you get out. The new house doesn't have to be perfect after you move in. Take your time! Thanks for this video too....I have been feeling scared lately but listening to you helps me too.
Sending you so so SO much love. You're allowed to feel what you feel and this is an objectively terribly difficult situation. But we WILL see you on the other side of this!
*tight, tight hugs* I’m so sorry you’re going through this, but you’re right. YOU’RE not alone. Take at least 5 minutes to close your eyes & breathe. Although we’re all worried about you, don’t stress about making videos & uploading them. You’re the #1 priority that you need to concentrate on. I know how hard it is to miss out on important things in life, whether it’s a new house or a holiday. A couple of years ago on Easter morning (Easter is always at my house btw), my parent’s woke up to find me delirious with a 104 temp when I was perfectly fine the day before. I had septicemia of the bladder ... or something like that. It’s still a bit of a blur. But every year, every day, is different. Just remember - you have a hubby, family, friends, & supporters who care about about you. Our #1 concern is your health & stress is only going to delay your healing. So again, take a deep breath & relax. Take a nap, watch Zootopia, & let your body heal. 💜
Jacquie it’s completely normal to feel all the emotions that you are going through. Being in pain is horrible, I have chronic pain too and it’s challenging! My prayers going out to you. God will help you through this :-) #KeepMovingForward
I do know how it's an emotional rollercoaster being in the hospital, but I also see that you have a good support network to help you through it. In 2017 I had 10 surgeries and that was just the start. It was a horribly frustrating time, made all the more I sufferable because (as an ex nurse), I felt I deserved to be consulted as an active member of my own care team, but I just wasn't. Different story but the same emotional rollercoaster. Hang in there.
Jaquie, I see your pain and sending you so much healing and love. Thank you for sharing your emotions and your life, they are natural and real and there are so many of us that resonate with this. You are also not alone. We understand needing to focus on yourself. Take it moment by moment. 💜💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey Jaquie! I'm a new subscriber, but I've kinda been lurking for a while lol. I'm a huge fan, and actually have a lot of the same chronic illnesses as you. You've given me a lot of help through the years and I just wanted to thank you for doing what you're doing. :) And I hope you get to feeling better hon.
Jaquie don’t dispair in 3 yrs I’ve been out of the hospital 7months I know how u feel I’m so sorry u will b ok keep the faith I know how u feel I could not say it better u r so eloquent
Jaquie, I've been watching your videos for a few years how and am so grateful for your courage to share your story. I know this is a hard time right now and I'm so sorry you are dealing with this. There is nothing more frustrating than doing everything right only for everything to go wrong. As a fibro warrior I understand this first hand. Keep up the fight, we love you, and don't worry about your house or unpacking or anything else. Just focus all your energy on getting well. Keep your eye on the prize - getting out and getting settled in your new home. I know you want to be involved now, but there will still be boxes that will need to be unpacked, waiting for you, you can also start your plans for decorating (I doubt Judd will take that from you! :D ) We'll be praying for you.
My heart goes out to you Jaquie. You're doing all you can and its not fair that chronic illness just has its own agenda. I hope you get on top of it somehow. Lots of love to you.
Jaquie! Always remember that emotions are human and it’s totally okay for you to feel that way. Remember that God is always with you. I’m sure you got this! I just watched your closing on your house video! Congratulations!! God knows what He puts us through. I’m here for you if you ever need to talk. ☺️ God bless you.
💔 I’m Sending healing hugs. Dealing with the beginning of a year(s) being so great than...the setbacks. Take good care of yourself, we are here. Love ya.
I feel your frustration. I just got test results back that show, once again, that I have no allergies. Pollen season has begun and I am feeling so bad. My face sting when I go out, my breathing gets heavy and my eyes and nose run. All the signs but no allergies... Seeing your frustration too made me cry. Why do some people have to go through a life of pain and other discomforts? It feels very unfair at the moment. You are not alone either Jackie. Much love ❤️
Let it out Jaquie! Cry and yell if you have to and get it out of your system. Then you can start to see things clearer and get your optimism back! ❤️❤️💪🏻💪🏻
I am where you are right now. My lupus specialist resigned from my hospital and I've been left at the mercy of his junior. My pancreas is dead and I blow up like a ballon if I eat anything solid. My pain is through the roof and I have slow release morphine but it's not touching the pain. I am being forced to have a liver and pancreas biopsy on Friday . They know the upper portion is gone and what's left of my pancreas is full of tumours. If I don't do these potentially deadly tests then I'll have no doctor watching out. Hospital is a nightmare when the nurses get snippy or drag their butts helping us. Chin up look forward to your beautiful new home.
I know it’s hard to stay positive with all of this going on. It’s okay to let yourself feel sad, feel down, feel tired. You just have to know that this too will past. You will come out of this episode and onto new adventures. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and praying for some healing to come your way so that you can get out of the hospital and to your new home!
I am so sorry to see you so young and going through all of this. I have pain most every day but, I am much older than you. I have started CBD oil about a month ago but haven't seen much change. There are so many kinds it is so hard to know which ones to try. Sending you well wishes. It really made me feel better to hear you say we are not going through this alone.
I appreciate that you always want to keep us updated. But if you don’t feel well enough to make vlogs it is also fine. Don’t worry about the delays of the uploads of your videos - I think most of the viewers will be more than understanding. Hope you are feeling better soon 💝
Watching this video after her passing, and it scares me now to hear the words from her
Jaquie, I’ve been silently watching your TH-cam for almost two years now. I found you through my soul searching during my melanoma diagnosis. But this post is not about me. I wanted to share that your positivity and faith has greatly helped me to discover my own. My prognosis has greatly improved, and I live a normal life now. But I continue to keep up with your story. I wanted to share a bit of wisdom I was given during those hard days. Being positive and pushing through is a wonderful outlook.

How are you doing with having melanoma? I knew someone who got the same diagnosis and unfortunately passed away. She was 33. My grandpa was diagnosed as well at 90 and passes away 6 months later.
Can’t believe they missed all the signs... they should have re-evaluated her symptoms from the start of admission. 😔😢
Rip beautiful. You didn’t deserve death so young 😓😪❤️
I'm right there with you Jaquie. Recovering from my brain surgery. The hardest part I think is when you hit that wall of depression and anxiety. Or just the wall of despair and fear. I'm thinking of you every day. You are my inspiration to keep looking forward. It's gonna be ok.
Jackie you are so normal in your feelings. This is exactly how I feel fighting diabetes, severe anemia and stage 5 kidney failure. Praying for you. Stay strong, stay faithful he is all powerful.
I’m so sorry for your pain. Something to look forward to, no more stairs. 🙂 please feel better soon. I hope you can find your way through.
You are still moving forward despite this setback. Once you're out of the hospital, you'll be miles ahead of where you started. My heart is with you and I am hoping for a speedy recovery.
*THANK YOU* for sharing this. It is so helpful, I can’t even put it into words.
Sending positive vibes your way.
wishing you a speedy recovery, you will get through this girl!

Try and think of it as just another bump in the road.
I'm 58 years young and have been fighting chronic pain for many years. It has keep me from many of special moments w/ my family and friends, times I'll never get back, you have to just keep FIGHTING!!!
Remember your going to get though this!
Much love and prayers to you and your family✝️💖🕊

This is just a small bump in the road. You got this. You are an inspiration to many people on this platform because you always fight back. You let nothing hold you back. You got your first job and your now eating since you've gotten medical MJ. Half the people I know would complain and not fight back. You are a warrior. You give me hope.
Authenticity and acknowledging emotions (even when they’re far from upbeat or glamorous) is so admirable and needed. Thank you for always being a courageous example for all of us, whether we have a chronic illness or not. I definitely relate as someone with chronic illness (Long QT Syndrome, severe Gastroparesis, etc.). Sometimes the treatments we need in order to stay alive make us feel less alive each second, but I hope you never forget that sharing your truth from every angle, knowing it may be misunderstood, doesn’t make you negative or a gloomy influence. It makes you resilient and human, and you are not fighting this alone. Giving up for the day and resting isn’t the same as giving up entirely, it just allows you to reset yourself to keep going. 💜
I don’t have a chronic illness but I have followed you for awhile now.. just felt drawn to your videos.. I’m so heartbroken to hear the news you have passed :( it feels like a bad dream.. RIP.. ❤️❤️
When you are in the moment, you can't see all the good days you've had, and the light at the end of the tunnel is really dim. Knowing it's there is half that battle, so you are miles ahead of so many, as you say just keep moving forward...you got this!!! You remind this community that they are not alone, I'm glad so many were here to remind you of that too, knowing it doesn't always mean you feel it so I hope you are feeling it today. Stay strong and stay focused, there is a beautiful new house at the end of this particular road, it needs you strong and healthy to make it your own!!!!
So sorry you have MRSA again, take all the time you need to rest and get better and don't forget, keep moving forward! Much love and prayers
Oh no. I'm so sorry you have to deal with all of this. I know the horrors of anaphylaxis all too well. Sharing your experience even through this difficult time takes strength I don't know if I'd be able to summon.
I'll be praying, in my own way, that all of this resolves quickly and you can find a good balance again and enjoy settling into your beautiful new house with your beautiful family.
Now... take some much needed time for yourself and snuggle lots of Hippo and hug your hubby.
Much, much love and many hugz to you all from across the pond.
Love/ Your very own Swede, Helena.
You are stronger than most people that have an illness like you. Stay strong. Congrats on the new house
It’s so nice to see someone in pain and knows what it’s like to be pushed down so much. I hate knowing someone is in pain. But I am glad I am not alone. My pain is caused from mental issues and physicals ones that cause me to not being able to move. And always getting yelled at for my grades because school is hard enough to do without pain but including it makes it sooo much harder. And having a family that doesn’t believe makes it’s so much worst I wish my family was like hers. Caring always able to be there.
It's so hard to see you struggling this bad mentally. Chronic Illness is so unpredictable and you have no idea what's around the next corner, you can never predict what's next. We're all rooting for you and we all know how strong you are. These downs are eventually going to be up's and we're all anxiously waiting for you to start getting back to your baseline. You're one of the strongest people we've ever seen. You need time to yourself to heal and recover from this unpredicted MRSA and hospitalization. Your church is behind you, your family is behind you, your subscribers are behind you. This is a brutal time to be going through all of this, it's supposed to be a happy time in your new home, celebrating Easter but sadly you're stuck inpatient. Just remember that this is where God meant you to be at this very moment, safe in the hospital. He knows you can't handle all this on your own at home, and that's okay. Soon, you'll be able to enjoy your new home without these constant anaphylaxis reactions, pain and infection. Soon, you'll be cozy where you want to be but for now, know we're all on your side. We're all sending you positive vibes and thoughts! *We know you can do this! * . Keep on fighting, we're rooting for you and we support every decision you make. Focus on yourself and start healing! We love you Jaquie!
Sending positive energy your way girl, I’m so sorry you are feeling defeated and overwhelmed. It’s okay to feel this way just let it out and let the emotions take their corse and you will get through this. We love you so much !
Just don't give up. We support you 100%. Positive and healing thoughts. 😘
Oh Jaquie! I hope this passes for you quickly. You're allowed to feel human emotions when you're going through something so rotten. You're not alone.
Sending prayers to you Jaquie. Praying for a quick recovery.
Praying for you sweet lady! Praying for peace and comfort during these times. When we cannot handle life, that is when we need to lean on God to carry us and pull us through the situation. Keep the faith, rest and get back to baseline as best you can 💕 and get ALL the hippo therapy
Oh Jaquie, I’m so very sorry. You just take time to grieve the loss of time and activities. You are always amazingly positive for all you have to endure. You’re entitled to feel how you feel today. Just know you have tons of people that are lifting you up in prayer! ❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️
🙏🏼i'm praying for you take all the time you need to get better. your health comes first then play
Oh Jaq you have every right to feel down!!!! Cry, scream, just let it all out!!! I know you try to be strong all the time but sometimes you just need to sit and cry. You have to be so overwhelmed right now and no one can blame you for that. Stay strong, keep pushing and hopefully you will make it out in time for the closing on the house. If not, not worry about it, the house isnt going anywhere and your health is more important right now! Praying you make a quick turn around and start going in the right direction!!!!!!!!
Oh Jaquie, I've been in that mental state so many times. That one step forward two steps back. It's very defeating and sometimes you just have to let the depression and frustration come, have a good cry and then move on when you can. *hugs*
God bless you, Jacquie. Praying for God to minister to you and for his presence to comfort you. You are such a warrior and you are going to get through this battle. I know you have to feel so weary and discouraged and that is okay. It is painful to watch you go through this suffering over and over but we are so thankful for the inspiration your share with us in the way you don't quit. Don't you give up. There is hope. You are doing everything right. Praying praying praying for grace and mercy and healing to come quickly. Love to you and hubby and hippo and mama.
WE LOVE U JAQUIE!!!! We r all praying for u. Keep up that positivity!!
Jacquie, so sorry you are going through this. This was 4 days ago, so hopefully you're feeling good now. Sounds like to top it off, you feel pressure about the house. Somehow you need to focus on all the positive aspects going on in your life. Your blessings. Lots of them. Keep reminding yourself of everything you have to be grateful for. God bless and I do hope and pray you are in your new home with your family or at least shortly will be.
I'm sorry you're struggling so much, hope you're feeling better now. Take care off yourself sweety, wishing you and your family all the best. I'll be sending good vibes your way and hope you'll be in your new house soon.
Sending positive thoughts your way Jaquie!
You are not alone! I'm going thru a simular situation myself. I have eds, MCAS, pots, and rheumatoid arthritis. I'm not hospitalized but mostly bed bound from a mast cell flare and RA flare. We are closing on our house today. My hubby and I have 3 kids, they each have eds, MCAS, and pots. So the packing and chaos is being handled mostly by my husband and my parents. I have been feeling down a bit myself, I can hardly get to the bathroom myself, let alone try and pack a box. I'm sleeping most my time, but thankfully my home med protocol is keeping from being impatient. I understand your frustration, and you will get thru this. Sometimes we have to fall back a few steps before moving forward again, but we always move forward. Lots of love and gentle hugs!
It's okay to feel the emotional side of this round of your hospital stay and your chronic illness. A good cry is a good release and, there's no shame. Let it out, give it to God, adjust your crown and keep moving forward ❤️
Thank you for this video. You're always so positive, I've often wondered if you have the same frustrated and overwhelming moments that I face. It's hard for me to explain to others what it's like to be in those moments. You've done that beautifully. Stay strong. You'll get through this, and your support team is happy to care for you (it's not a burden). Thanks again for this video that I will share with my own family so that they can better understand how I'm feeling during the bad times (because I don't have your strength to explain myself).
Jacqui, I wish I was there in person to give you a big hug! You are loved by many!
Sad how this young life was lost way to soon.. I wonder if the docs messed or missed something. Cause she should not of died because of this.
Jaquie, I'm hoping this day gets better for you. I know Wednesday is a big day and I hope you are able to get some rest before the closing. Sending you love and hugs and prayers.
I am so sorry sweetie. I wish there was something I could say that would make you feel better. I know there is not. Just know that we all love you and we are all praying for a speedy recovery. I have been watching your videos for over a year now and I am here to tell you, you are the strongest person I know. You WILL get through this and quickly. Anyways keep moving forward. You got this!!!!!
Mrsa again?! Oh Jaq I hope your health starts going up again soon!
Stay strong!! Sending prayers and healing light. Chronic illness sucks. You never know from one day to the next how you will feel. 🙏💜
Sometimes it hard to see the forest through the trees. You have the right to feel what you feel. You have support. I know how you feel, I fight pain and mental illness.
11 days oh Lord God bless u Jaq don’t know if I could handle that. You are so full of grace u give me strength seeing u so strong thru this Im terrified to be stuck in the hospital fighting insurance for back surgery now im strong enough for so I’m praying God will take away anxiety about the hospital. Thank u for blessing us w your insight it’s inspiring!! Had 8 surgeries last year thankfully all outpatient!
You're not alone. And all those who love you are in my prayers. Ups and downs.... This too shall pass. Stay strong 💙💚💜💙💚💜
1 second, 1 minute, 1 step at a time-it may seem like ur going backwards, but there are some small victories-like getting the surgery over and done with!! It may not seem like it, and that ur not moving fast-but you are moving forward-maybe in tiny ways-but is forward!! As I often say/remind myself/ tell myself-“I’m sure it will work out in the wash”! We are ABSOLUTELY here with you-and are here to support you 1000%. Take whatever time you need to do what you need to do-we will be here for you whenever you come back!! Have you thought about seeing a social worker/someone to talk things over with in the hospital?-I find it really helps when I’m struggling-and feeling I’m getting nowhere fast. You are going thru a TON right now-a new house (just to name 1 thing, among so many others) is considered a MAJOR life stressor-and that’s for people that are “normal”/and don’t suffer the challenges you do on a day to day basis! Please be kind to yourself, and know that we are cheering you and your family on, every step of the way!
You are the strongest person i have ever seen. I know you will get through this. Just take it one moment at a time and you will see that light one the other side before you know it.
It’s ok. It really is ok to feel beaten down and hopeless. You are doing all you can to get better. Sometimes it’s better just to ride the wave and let your body tell you what it needs. Be kind to yourself and relax, sending you healing energy my friend 💕🌻
Please promise not to over do it when you get out. The new house doesn't have to be perfect after you move in. Take your time! Thanks for this video too....I have been feeling scared lately but listening to you helps me too.
Sending you so so SO much love. You're allowed to feel what you feel and this is an objectively terribly difficult situation. But we WILL see you on the other side of this!
*tight, tight hugs* I’m so sorry you’re going through this, but you’re right. YOU’RE not alone. Take at least 5 minutes to close your eyes & breathe. Although we’re all worried about you, don’t stress about making videos & uploading them. You’re the #1 priority that you need to concentrate on. I know how hard it is to miss out on important things in life, whether it’s a new house or a holiday.
A couple of years ago on Easter morning (Easter is always at my house btw), my parent’s woke up to find me delirious with a 104 temp when I was perfectly fine the day before. I had septicemia of the bladder ... or something like that. It’s still a bit of a blur. But every year, every day, is different.
Just remember - you have a hubby, family, friends, & supporters who care about about you. Our #1 concern is your health & stress is only going to delay your healing. So again, take a deep breath & relax. Take a nap, watch Zootopia, & let your body heal. 💜
Jacquie it’s completely normal to feel all the emotions that you are going through. Being in pain is horrible, I have chronic pain too and it’s challenging! My prayers going out to you. God will help you through this :-) #KeepMovingForward
I do know how it's an emotional rollercoaster being in the hospital, but I also see that you have a good support network to help you through it. In 2017 I had 10 surgeries and that was just the start. It was a horribly frustrating time, made all the more I sufferable because (as an ex nurse), I felt I deserved to be consulted as an active member of my own care team, but I just wasn't. Different story but the same emotional rollercoaster. Hang in there.
I really appreciate your transparency and I think these raw type videos are important. I can relate your feelings. Praying for you.
Jaquie, I see your pain and sending you so much healing and love. Thank you for sharing your emotions and your life, they are natural and real and there are so many of us that resonate with this. You are also not alone. We understand needing to focus on yourself. Take it moment by moment. 💜💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey Jaquie! I'm a new subscriber, but I've kinda been lurking for a while lol. I'm a huge fan, and actually have a lot of the same chronic illnesses as you. You've given me a lot of help through the years and I just wanted to thank you for doing what you're doing. :) And I hope you get to feeling better hon.
Jaquie don’t dispair in 3 yrs I’ve been out of the hospital 7months I know how u feel I’m so sorry u will b ok keep the faith I know how u feel I could not say it better u r so eloquent
I have experienced those feelings, Jaquie. It hurts so much, but it will be over soon. Remember to keep your head held high. 💖
You have every right to feel the feelings your feeling. Keep pushing forward.
Jaquie, I've been watching your videos for a few years how and am so grateful for your courage to share your story. I know this is a hard time right now and I'm so sorry you are dealing with this. There is nothing more frustrating than doing everything right only for everything to go wrong. As a fibro warrior I understand this first hand. Keep up the fight, we love you, and don't worry about your house or unpacking or anything else. Just focus all your energy on getting well. Keep your eye on the prize - getting out and getting settled in your new home. I know you want to be involved now, but there will still be boxes that will need to be unpacked, waiting for you, you can also start your plans for decorating (I doubt Judd will take that from you! :D ) We'll be praying for you.
You are definitely not alone Jaquie! You got this. Better days are coming! ❤️
My heart goes out to you Jaquie. You're doing all you can and its not fair that chronic illness just has its own agenda. I hope you get on top of it somehow. Lots of love to you.
Jaquie! Always remember that emotions are human and it’s totally okay for you to feel that way. Remember that God is always with you. I’m sure you got this! I just watched your closing on your house video! Congratulations!! God knows what He puts us through. I’m here for you if you ever need to talk. ☺️ God bless you.
Stay strong Jaquie, we are all behind you...you will get through.
💔 I’m Sending healing hugs. Dealing with the beginning of a year(s) being so great than...the setbacks. Take good care of yourself, we are here. Love ya.
I feel your frustration. I just got test results back that show, once again, that I have no allergies. Pollen season has begun and I am feeling so bad. My face sting when I go out, my breathing gets heavy and my eyes and nose run. All the signs but no allergies... Seeing your frustration too made me cry. Why do some people have to go through a life of pain and other discomforts? It feels very unfair at the moment.
You are not alone either Jackie.
Much love ❤️
You are so strong you're doing the best you can and don't be afraid to let those human emotions lose
Give's you a massive hug... I know exactly what you are going thru. I know that a hug does not solve the problems but I know you really need one!
You’re fighter ✊🏻we will pray for you, keep safe, sweetie 💋
This moment in time is just a blip on the screen. You’ll be on the other side of this soon. Baby steps. You’ll get there. Hugs and prayers.
Great Video as Always !!!
Judd you have my condolences on your wife is she will be missed my many!!!
God be with you. Remember, if He brought you to it, He'll see you through it. Hang in there.
Sending you lots of love! Hang in there, you'll get through this. Focus on getting better so you can go enjoy your beautiful new house.
Let it out Jaquie! Cry and yell if you have to and get it out of your system. Then you can start to see things clearer and get your optimism back! ❤️❤️💪🏻💪🏻
from one chronic sufferer to another. keep up the good fight. hugs
I am where you are right now. My lupus specialist resigned from my hospital and I've been left at the mercy of his junior. My pancreas is dead and I blow up like a ballon if I eat anything solid. My pain is through the roof and I have slow release morphine but it's not touching the pain. I am being forced to have a liver and pancreas biopsy on Friday . They know the upper portion is gone and what's left of my pancreas is full of tumours. If I don't do these potentially deadly tests then I'll have no doctor watching out. Hospital is a nightmare when the nurses get snippy or drag their butts helping us. Chin up look forward to your beautiful new home.
Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, dear Jacquie. Sending positive thoughts to you and hope you feel better. One day at a time...
I know it’s hard to stay positive with all of this going on. It’s okay to let yourself feel sad, feel down, feel tired. You just have to know that this too will past. You will come out of this episode and onto new adventures. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and praying for some healing to come your way so that you can get out of the hospital and to your new home!
I am so sorry to see you so young and going through all of this. I have pain most every day but, I am much older than you. I have started CBD oil about a month ago but haven't seen much change. There are so many kinds it is so hard to know which ones to try. Sending you well wishes. It really made me feel better to hear you say we are not going through this alone.
I wish you strength, positive vibes and hope that you will feel better soon. I'm sorry you're going through this.😣
So sick of mine as well Jaquie...but we have to hang in there and know that it will get better as hard as that is. XOXO
I appreciate that you always want to keep us updated. But if you don’t feel well enough to make vlogs it is also fine. Don’t worry about the delays of the uploads of your videos - I think most of the viewers will be more than understanding. Hope you are feeling better soon 💝
