Loved your video! My daughter, who is 14 years old, has MEN2b. She hasn’t met anyone else with her disease. Watching her watch the two of you & smiling made my so heart full❤️ thanks for helping her feel less alone!
Hi guys! Oh gosh the response we’ve had from our MEN community has made us feel so warm and not alone. The group AMEND run information days and family weekends to help build community and inform family members about the condition. (The one I am familiar with is run in UK, Jo Grey is an amazing woman role model who runs AMEND) Groups on Facebook and generally doing creative things like this to open up our small community. Thank you for all the love :) xxx
You both are precious. God loves us, I am a brilliant Texan, transplanted in California USA ! My oldest family say we came from Northern England. I have Bipolar Disorder. Just now I felt close to you Joel, for the way people treat us. The baffling things they say. Try this one on for a laugh after a bought with Bipolar Depression. You look as though you lost your best friend ! God Bless You and Yours !
Love it . I was diagnosed 4 years ago have had 3 quarters of my pancreas out gallbladder and spleen and 3.5 parathyroid glands removed . It's deff a daily battle . Everything in this video is so true lol love it keep the content coming I'll be watching for it
❤️️❤️ sending you two lots of Love from Germany. My two kiddos and I have MEN type 2A. Often I can't even put in words how I feel. I am very much touched and inspired by your openness and your uplifting spirit! Thanks for making this video and am looking forward to Part 2
I’ve got men1 and am also in Germany! British in Germany. I got my parathyroid and thyroid and adrenal gland removed because I got Cushing’s and then had adrenal insufficiency for years. Is there a support group in Germany?
Your videos are amazing, I’ve just been diagnosed with men1 at the age of 36 so far just parathyroid tumour and gastrinomas...bring on all the other issues in the future hahaha it’s nice to see two people who can laugh at the situation that many of us face! A massive thanks from me as your videos have helped me so much!
That must be difficult, but I hope you can take something positive away from this video. At the very least - you're not alone! There's people all over the planet with MEN who are happy to talk to a fellow patient.
Hey loved your video! my family too has men1 so i completley get were your coming from. I havent found out yet But my two older sisters have it! Thankyou for sharing 🙂
cecile Clark it’s so cool to see so many people with MEN connecting on here - we had no idea this community could be so present online. Thank you for commenting and all the best xx

Are you on FB? There are MENS support groups and MTC groups with wonderful people there. One of the groups has a kids only messenger group.
riddicksraven Yes :-) we are on several groups on Facebook, they have been lifesavers for us!
Oh good! They have been wonderful for us too. We don't feel so alone now because of them.

Cheers for taking the time to comment Shawn! Ah man that sounds rough, glad to have you along for the ride though mate - new video every week!
I’ve got men1 and am waiting for doctors to decide on pancreatic tumour removal. I’m terrified of the surgery. What was it like?
Brilliant! I have encountered every single one of these comments as an MEN1 sufferer. Well done on raising awareness!?!
Have MEN 1 myself, and can really identify with everything you've said. "At least it's the good kind," and "you don't look sick."
Yeah these ones can really get to you - especially if you're feeling pretty fragile at the time!
