I have never commented before, but as a nurse I have noticed an issue with your left eye lately. My guess is that things are following the course they will follow. Take it slow, take it easy, but most of all just take it all in. You are a well grounded young woman with a beautiful support system around you and appear well informed by your doctor's and nurses. In my opinion, you are not only handling this with complete grace and openness, but allowing us to bear witness to this journey you are on is very special. Hold those you love close, say the things that need to be said, and know that I see you, I hear you, and I honor your sharing what you are going through.
@@barnabasschuler9025What?! I cannot believe, here you come, five years later and after watching Emily's vlogs where she had terminal cancer and about a month left to live, and you are asking if she "was in her right mind"? Get brain cancer and you'll find out it actually affects you..To me, Emily was still sharp as a razor blade, witty and her sense of humour intact. Of course she had issues, her brain was literally swelling from tumours, and despite that, she was up and about, seeing things positive. I have never to this day, watched or seen a more inspiring human being. She was something else, and we all need to watch & learn from her.
Nurse here Emily. Having dizziness and blacking out can be dehydration. Your blood pressure drops and pulse rises upon standing causes symptoms. You were on the right track with salt, but, it needs to be himalayan pink salt which has 86 different minerals in it unlike regular salt which as two. If you can add vitamin C at the same time as well as extra potassium from something it will help as well.
Well girl your back good advice below so take it aisha your 1 in a million your sweet clever pretty and the best thing ems could have in her life love to yous both x
@Margarett Menzella you are copy pasting the same comment everywhere on youtube and you made these two accounts 1 month ago and now you're responding to your own comment. Trying to scam people. Who tf falls for this dude.
Em that sounds very like super low blood pressure! Please DONT go to the gym right now until this improves? Speak to your nurse about this. Do you get your blood sugar checked regularly? I’m so glad you enjoyed your surprise BBQ Aisha is so very thoughtful 👍 You need to take the time to chill and let your body regulate these drugs. Your utterly Amazing and things will get better very soon I’m positive of this so chin up chook and take care and listen to your body. We all love you both loads xxx
Aisha the garden looks lovely lots of colour, you have green fingers as well as being beautiful . Lucky you Emily ! You may have postural hypotension which basically means your blood pressure is low when you are sitting or lying down, so when you stand it drops in your boots and takes time to normalise. It can be due to dehydration and or a side effects of your tablets. Give your nurse Peta a ring as she may be able to suggest a change in your medication. When you go from sitting to standing do so slowly. When you are standing try marching gently on the spot or flexing your toes in your shoes for a minute or so as this helps bring your blood pressure up before you start to walk away. This is a trick the soldiers do to stop them fainting on parade. Im sure this can be sorted by your team at the hospital. Big hugs xx
Great advice! Unfortunately, it can stem from pressure on certain parts of the brain, too. That's why I deal with it. My Grandpa has it, as well, due to minor brain damage from a lack of oxygen when his heart stopped for 5 minutes. I really hope you're right, and it's just her medication. It'll be okay either way, though! She seems to handle situations like this bravely and brilliantly, like always! 💜
You can also try to have water at your bedside and drink it before you even get out of bed. Get up very slowly! Throw your legs over the side of bed and just sit there for a few minutes before you stand up. I'm so sorry you aren't feeling up to par. I can't tell you not to workout because that's part of who you are. If you want to workout then do so but maybe Aisha or a friend could go with you? Much love and well wishes from the US!
POTS is a good answer / suggestion, but it would of shown up before. Another thing might be a medication interaction problem that causes a normally low BP to drop and give POTS like symptoms. There could be another 100 or so reasons for the black outs .... petit mal etc etc
Doesn't POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) result in an elevated *heart rate* upon standing? Orthostatic Hypotension (or Postural Hypotension), which we have been talking about, results in your *blood pressure* dropping upon standing up too quickly, and Emily already mentioned that she has issues with low blood pressure. I deal with OH because of pressure on my brain/brainstem due to a cerebro-spinal fluid blockage and fluid build-up inside my skull. It doesn't happen ALL the time, and it showed up later in my long list of symptoms caused by my disability. I don't think it necessarily would've shown up earlier for Emily, either. Especially not with all the changes that Emily goes through consistently with her medication and treatment.
I wanted to skip physical therapy today due to pain- but I thought" I bet Emily is up and at it!" - so I went and kicked butt. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. You are both lovely people.
I totally see why you fell in love with each other. The real mystery is how is there not a constant stream of love struck people following the two of you around. Just absolutely amazing women y’all are.
Aisha is so cute. She was so excited about the package with her name on it. She loved Emily so freaking much. They were a power couple. Complimented each other perfectly. Sorely missed Emily. Watch over your loved ones, send them signs xoxo
Slightly off the subject, but I didn't know you had a gansta cat all sitting on kitchen table like a boss❤️ seen your dog a lot, nice to see another member of the family 😃
@Old Mother Riley im so so sorry about your sister when you know from personal experience it put a whole different slant on it. Em was some woman. Both lovely people. So young to leave us. I hope your sister has the support she needs in this difficult time. Take care stay safe x
@Old Mother Riley your welcome.. Emily inspired me so much after breast cancer it was a struggle all cancer and life threatening illnesses are. Life can be a struggle take care xx
Glad you got our parcel lovely Em and Aisha - Aisha asked where we got the card, it came from a little shop in Broadway, Worcs. We spent a long time trying to choose as there were lots of cute ones, but in the end it HAD to be the unicorn, didn't it :) Merry and Juliet xxxx
Hi Sandra I can't see how to message - but this is the address Emily posted on one of her vlogs - P.O BOX: THE KINGS SCHOOL RECREATION CENTRE CANTERBURY KENT CT2 7HU
alice-laura Me to,i wish someone would give that beautiful fur baby a cuddle and the gorgeous cat.Let me just say first off my heart breaks for this girl,and i think she is an inspiration,and its awful what she went through and was took way to soon. However that aside im hoping and i presume the cat and dog arent theirs? does anyone know? i know its not their house,i dont think,they live with one or the others parents i belive,im hoping the animals belong to them,as ive never hardly seen either of them even stroke those animals,yet alone consider taking the dog for a bloody walk,that would of been a great form of exercise for her and the poor dog,instead of that stupid gym all the time! They were always out and about,never took the dog,i really couldnt belive it,animals give you such joy and comfort especially in times of sadness and illness etc I guess you only will understand this if you are a true animal lover.I really dont think either of them are,and its very obvious! Just hope the animals belong to the parents,does anyone know? Animals are precious to and deserve to be loved and treated right,broke my heart seeing that dog hanging around all the time,and no one ever bothering with him,and you never ever saw the cat really.I have animals,and i kiss and give them cuddles everyday,as it should be.Dont come for me guys,i feel very strongly about animals,and just dont understand when people have them,and ignore them,lets hope ive got it wrong,and they are the parents animals.R.I.P Emily.
So happy you guys got the hoodies and our note! You’re both such an inspiration and examples of what true grit is. It’s helped Jordan and our family so much just seeing you keep at it everyday. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! #NEVERGIVEUP
I have those dizzy spells and with me its low blood pressure. It comes and goes. I LOVE the way you said the breakfast was crap...your honesty is so refreshing.
You have a fantastic wife and so brave both of you going through so much. Hugs from me an oldie keep fighting as I demand a cure for against all the Cancer things.
Oh wow Aisha is the best! What a lovely gathering of your friends you worked with Emily! How cool is that!!!! 💐💕❤️ I love how you two talk to each other it is so cute!!!! ❤️ Some lovely gifts you both received and I hoped it brightened you both up even if it was raining! To your blackouts I would ask your nurse. The only thing I can come up with is if you are lying down or sitting purposely move slowly so it won’t give you that black out feeling. But honestly I don’t know. You are still looking well and I am happy you are having some fun this week!! 😀 My day was shit but when I opened my phone and saw your notification I was all smiles and all my shit went away! Happy now!!! 😀🎊 Loving Aisha’s garden!!!!! Love to you both!!!! xx 😘❤️💕✌🏻 And sorry for the edits on my comments but I type like shit! 😂
It's so nice to see an update before I was expecting one, I always look forward to your videos. I love how real you are, I love your personality and motivation. You're inspiring too. Thank you for being you, and your lass is an amazing lass too xxx
I absolutely love watching the pleasure that you and Aisha get from parcel opening. It also reminds me of all the good people in the world. Thank you for sharing your lives with us!
Love to you all! Sending comfort and blue skies!! Loving your videos - just do them when you feel like it - we fans are patient! Take good care!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I've only just came across your channel so I'm working backwards to watch all your videos. You are such an inspiration with everything you are going through. I love how you continue to be positive x
I stumbled upon your channel and I’m just in awe! You’re such a strong person, it’s incredible how you manage to stay positive. You both are so cute together and I truly wish you’ll grow old together despite the odds! Sending you both love 💛
You two are so cute. Aisha was so excited about getting something in the mail! It was adorable. I’m so glad you are going to do more videos! Im happy to see that you are doing well Emily!
Hi Emily, I’ve been following your videos for a few weeks and you are AMAZING! Your positivity is infectious as is your strength and resilience. I love the relationship between you and your girl also 😍. I look forward to your updates, stay strong! By the way, I agree with others - the blackouts sound like a low BP thing maybe? I’ve got really low BP, and am all over the place at times. Big hugs 🤗 xxxx
You two crack me up! I love watching the back and forth between you both. I can actually see the love and care that you have for one another and the fact that Aisha thought to invite your friends over to cheer you up was awesome. What a sweetie! I have low blood pressure as well and I have just learned to try to move slowly and purposefully when I get up and if I start to feel like the blackness is coming I find a spot to sit. It can be a bit embarressing to sit yourself down on the sidewalk or curb or in the mall on the floor but I've found it's much less embarressing than falling over fainted and cracking your head on the cement. Funny part of that story is that they called the ambulance and I was so embarressed that I pulled the sheet up over my face and people thought they were taking out a dead body from the mall. I can laugh about it now. Anyway, keep your chin up (and off the floor). Love you both lots.
You two are totally the best, you're always full of joy fun and laughter, and I'm sure that for you Emily it must be the hardest ever thing to be every time you come visit us, and as for Aisha, well!!!......she just amazing, to be always so cheerful and so encouraging for you, Bless her because I'm certain that cannot be easy for her especially when she loves you so much but she never complains and always has a smile on her very beautiful face. Emily I think those blackouts you asked our opinion on, is your blood pressure problem, I've also just come through two cancers (I've just been told I'm in remission, haha but then I've been told that before - I still keep smiling though) anyway I too get those blackouts and the oncologist says its the BP, so hopefully yours is for the same reason, I'm sure it will be. My love to you both and I have to say this, that to tell the truth its such a relief when I see your up on YT, I start looking from about 9pm then throw a big wobbly if your late lol. Hugs and loads of love to you both. Vicki xxx
Hi Emily, lovely to see you feeling more upbeat! Looks like Aisha organised a fab suprise for you, she really is a diamond. Take it steady, sending lots of love as always ❤
Yes! Blood pressure will do that! I had it while pregnant. Scary I was just always afraid I was going to pass out! Hopefully this passes and and you get back to feeling back to your normal spunky happy energetic self! It puts me in sad place seeing you upset and not feeling great!💕
Emily you are so amazing, stoic and such a great girl. I have only recently found your vlogs on youtube. I admire you 100 percent for how you are handling such a gruelling condition and I love the way you put your vlogs together. You have real talent, courage and balls. XXX
Emily, my love to you and Aisha. What a wonderful surprise, to have some loved ones come over, so that you all can chill on an absolute gorgeous day ! keep on fighting, girlfriend , you've got lot's of people out there, around the world, pulling for you! Love and blessings Xxoo
I love your videos and your such positive attititude!! You and Aisha have a gorgeous flat/house and I absolutely love the garden and all the grass. You and Aisha always make me smile. You two are such a sweet couple and I am so happy that you both were able to have such a lovely wedding. I also keep you both in my prayers. I hope and I pray that you will go into remission. The doctors are not always right, you know!! Love to both of you❤
Emily Hayward I never knew you but I watch your videos all the time. You were a very strong young woman, and your TH-cam family misses you very very much and I'm sure your girlfriend does too. You have been such an inspiration here on TH-cam and even though God has called you home you've made your mark on the world people are watching your videos everyday to gain inspiration as they fight cancer. I know you're in heaven but I hope you can hear this and I hope you can see this you are very loved and you are missed very very much every day. I wish I had had the chance to meet you maybe we'll see each other one day again in heaven may God bless your heart, you are loved ... rest in peace young lady 💖
OMG I love you girls. That Emily's eyes - so piercing, like they really see you when she looks at someone. And you two are so natural together. I could go on and on............
So nice of Aisha to have friends come visit. It was funny how you knew something was up Emily, lol! Sorry you’re having so much dizziness, hope it’s resolved soon. Loving the garden!❤️ You two are just the cutest!
I am so glad you could spend time with your friends; truly special gift. You take those bits of rest when you need to . We all will be here for you still when you wake. You have an incredible group of supporters worldwide, most of whom you'll never meet, but...who share one common goal to be here for you in thought, words and prayers. I will gladly give you some of my strength and since i have high blood pressure i will pass that along as well. Thinking of you.
.. your love, laughter & kindness makes the world go 'round ! .. 🌸🦋☘.. .. prayers continue for comfort & encouragement & strength. Thank you, sincerely, for inspiring & making my day better. -- your fruit salad was perfection. Wishing you both a restful and peaceful goodnight, & a wonderful, loving tomorrow. ☘
I feel so blessed and privileged to be a part of "this lot." There is nothing but love over here. I want to send Aisha a package just for her because I love her reactions so much (and of course because she deserves it). Love to both of you from Tennessee over here in the States. ❤
I have had the blackouts that you are having, for as long as I can remember I used to get them during growth spurts and I still get them for couple of weeks at a time sometimes collapsing to the floor. I have always been told they are ‘head rushes’ caused by standing up to quick and the blood pressure in your brain getting too low for a few seconds I can only suggest making a conscious effort to get up slowly when standing up, if lying down don’t go straight to standing but sit up for a few seconds first. Possibly try to be aware, that like with me sometimes they can make you collapse so be careful not to fall on anything and hopefully they will pass after a week or so. I hope this helps, and I want you to know that I honestly aspire to be more like you, a strong, honest, kind person who has a gift of bringing sunshine into peoples lives.
Sweetheart 💞 dont stress about how often you upload, please. If youre struggling mentally or physically, aside from the meds I can honestly recommend breathing exercises and meditation, they are both fab for calming anxiety and are a fab coping mechanism. Sending you all the love in the world...keep tearing the arse out of it kiddo...😘
It looks like you had a lovely time with all your friends 😊 Aisha is such a sweetheart surprising you like that. Sorry to hear about the new symptoms but you amaze me with how well you deal with it and are positive about the good days. Lots of love to you both as always 💖💖💖
I’m sorry things seem a bit rougher for you right now. I love you guys so much and wish you all the positivity and love in the world. You’re so strong Emily, it’s absolutely amazing. You better be so proud of yourself. You deserve everything.
The two of you are so damn adorable. I loved seeing Aisha come skipping out in the beginning with a huge smile and the garden is so lovely. The party looked great, all having a good time. Emily, yeah I think your right sweet pea, it's your blood pressure. Had that myself and was told to get up very slowly. It can be scary. I'm sure your doctor can advise you. Love you both!!!
Just want to say I don’t know you personally but you are a inspiration to people dealing with what you deal with, to stay positive, and keep fighting and not give up :) your amazing and keep fighting and doing what your doing. Your an inspiration. And don’t let it beat you, and take away your positive attitude and also Aisha she’s a credit to you! And herself ♥️
I have very low blood pressure. If I stand up too quick I pass out! Just take things really slowly when you go to stand up. Sending you girls loads of love. And thank you so much for the vlog. Xx
The garden looks so colourful, and Aisha you are such an angel 😇 looks like you had a great time at the barbecue. Sorry to hear your not feeling too good thanks for sharing your life with us. Take care 💖💖
How fun it was watching you open your surprises. So bubbly and striving to find so much positiveness in each waking hour, though you feel like shit. Your amazing Em and Asha is such a gentle soul to have backing you . Take care girls and enjoy your special moments cuddles xxxxxxxxx
Looks like you had a lovely time with Aisha and your friends, fab vlog as always and really good to see you and know you’re ok. Blackouts sound tough to deal with - not a nurse so no advise but I do have something that I like to say to myself when times are tough (I have an autistic, non verbal toddler who struggles with going to sleep and meltdowns) and that’s the very simple phrase “this too shall pass.” I repeat it to myself loads when I’m struggling and it does really help, things do always pass and life gets back to being good again. You are such a strong woman and you should be so proud of yourself xxx
Nice garden Aisha, you did well on the flowers arrangement and the setting for the garden party. Sorry you did not feel so well Emily, it will get better, my dear. I think you are dealing with a little low blood pressure ; talk to the doc. about it - Much love to you both oxox
It was so nice of Aisha to surprise you with a bunch of your friends Emily and her garden looks fabulous. She's a gem! I'm sorry you're experiencing a new side effect, but hopefully someone in the comments can offer you some helpful suggestions, but I would also ring your nurse and get her opinion as well. Always sending love and positivity to you both.
Emily stay strong! Thinking of you two even more now, being in the UK for a bit. Also as I work in cancer clinical study research field...I would wish nothing more than for Em to get better. Also Aisha is really such a babe...I need her energy! She's so purely happy and grateful for everything. I am also wondering if she's not originally from Newcastle upon Tyne area...I was there for 2 days and the accent really reminded me of her-I was turning my head all the time, thinking that she's next to me lol. Take care! Xxx
Aw, you can tell how tired you are and the drugs are really causing you grief. I believe you are going to “get back on it” so don’t worry about your vlogs. They are still awesome and you two are still amazing no matter what. I’m so glad Aisha got a nice present, and it looks great on her. I’m a newish subscriber and you are fascinating. I am well but have spent my life scared shitless of cancer. My mom died of it when I was 20. That was a long time ago and they didn’t have half the treatments they do today. So just go with it and the way you feel each hour and each day and when you can give more and do more you will. You are amazing. Aisha is amazing. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me and many many more.
I experienced the exact same symptoms Emily, whenever I stood up, my vision would be effected and I would see black patches , sometimes my hearing would be effected to and sometimes whenI had a very bad episode, I would feel really sick as well, mine was found to be a sudden drop in my blood pressure, making sure that you remain hydrated can help and that you are eating enough as well, it could well be that one or several of your meds, that they happen to lower your medication. Was so thoughtful and kind of Aisha to invite a few of really close friends round, it’s so wonderful how she knows just what will lift you up , when you have had a challenging time, and you do the same for her her too. Love how gorgeous the garden is looking sending you both love and positivity xxxxxx
Always happy to see you've posted. I'm sorry you're experiencing side effects. I learned from you though to just look at it as an obstacle you'll bust through rather than waste time consumed in worry. Seriously, (I know I'm being verbose) ....you have given strength to so many. Could tell you weren't quite yourself when you said 'you guys' and not your signature 'you lot'! :teasing: I agree black outs could be blood pressure and you should rise slowly and sit a while before standing. No harm in giving the nurse a call. And enjoy chillin'! Glad the painted stone arrived. It was a congrats for the wedding but it took a while to get there. Hope the stone 💎 in the ring atop the rock shines as you two do. The garden is lovely, Aisha, as are you. How nice, Emily, to gather with 13 good mates. That in itself is a gift. That's my two cents times 2×2x2! LOL❤️ JC
Emily - It’s lovely to see you & Aisha enjoying time together and to watch you unwrapping gifts - you both deserve them! Please do take extra good care to really rest up whilst you are experiencing what sounds like very low blood pressure/feeling faint - understandably, you must be exhausted and in need of lots of extra rest. We all love you Emily & Aisha XXXX
Blackouts sounds like low blood pressure for sure, definitely mention that to your nurse as to what can help with it. Lovely to see both of your faces ♥️
Aw Emily I hope things get better and give u a break can see your down lately keep smiling beautiful ❤️ love how happy Aisha was with her parcel then open and had to model it she’s so cute and sweet 🙌🙌🙌 love u guys keep strong xxxxxx
I love the CAT that's waddling off the table in the back ground at 9:22 - SO FUNNY - and you are an actual TROOPER emily and Aisha are so amazing - actual lovely genuine couple.
Awww!! Your wife is the bomb!! ☺️ I love you guys!! You hang in there Emily!! ❤ Sometimes I get blackouts in the morning, when i get up too quickly. I am on blood pressure meds, and I find if I get up very slowly...it helps.
Hey Em and Aisha, you two continue to inspire me. I have been married to my husband 19 years this July, together 23 years and you and Aisha feel like a couple that's been together that long. My chronic illness took away our chance to have kids, to travel, to do anything involving adrenaline because it makes me go into anaphylactic shock. I think your cancer has bonded you two as well. You've both been faced with adversity and continue striving and doing your best to stay positive. I love you both so much and I've never even met you. Seems odd, but seems right at the same time. Praying steady. You're a rock star xo😉🇨🇦❤p.s don't worry about how often you post, or what the content is like, we just want to see you and Aisha and Cookie and know you're all ok

In retrospect this is her body starting to shut down. Poor sweetie stayed positive til the end.

It is just heart breaking to watch her going through that crap. She fought so hard for so long

Slightly off the subject, but I didn't know you had a gansta cat all sitting on kitchen table like a boss❤️ seen your dog a lot, nice to see another member of the family 😃
I know, I had the same thought! I’m glad they have another member in their loving family!
Me too! Love cats as well as dogs
Maureen Fitzgerald true! Everyone people and animals are so chilled in that house! It's all ❤️❤️there
Desderata of happiness Yeah I know right? 😀❤️
Actually their kitty has been in several videos but I think she is wearing camo! 😉😊
I revisit these vlogs and miss you so much Emily. What troopers both of you. ❤❤
@Old Mother Riley im so so sorry about your sister when you know from personal experience it put a whole different slant on it. Em was some woman. Both lovely people. So young to leave us. I hope your sister has the support she needs in this difficult time. Take care stay safe x
@Old Mother Riley your welcome.. Emily inspired me so much after breast cancer it was a struggle all cancer and life threatening illnesses are. Life can be a struggle take care xx
Me too 💖
Glad you got our parcel lovely Em and Aisha - Aisha asked where we got the card, it came from a little shop in Broadway, Worcs. We spent a long time trying to choose as there were lots of cute ones, but in the end it HAD to be the unicorn, didn't it :) Merry and Juliet xxxx
so sweet of you!!!
How wonderful and so kind of you! 😙💛❤ They are such a sweet pair aren't they!? 😊😍
Hi Merry, I cant find their postal address anywhere....? could you message me, thanks xx

i want to hug that dog omg so sweet
alice-laura Me to,i wish someone would give that beautiful fur baby a cuddle and the gorgeous cat.Let me just say first off my heart breaks for this girl,and i think she is an inspiration,and its awful what she went through and was took way to soon.
However that aside im hoping and i presume the cat and dog arent theirs? does anyone know? i know its not their house,i dont think,they live with one or the others parents i belive,im hoping the animals belong to them,as ive never hardly seen either of them even stroke those animals,yet alone consider taking the dog for a bloody walk,that would of been a great form of exercise for her and the poor dog,instead of that stupid gym all the time! They were always out and about,never took the dog,i really couldnt belive it,animals give you such joy and comfort especially in times of sadness and illness etc I guess you only will understand this if you are a true animal lover.I really dont think either of them are,and its very obvious! Just hope the animals belong to the parents,does anyone know? Animals are precious to and deserve to be loved and treated right,broke my heart seeing that dog hanging around all the time,and no one ever bothering with him,and you never ever saw the cat really.I have animals,and i kiss and give them cuddles everyday,as it should be.Dont come for me guys,i feel very strongly about animals,and just dont understand when people have them,and ignore them,lets hope ive got it wrong,and they are the parents animals.R.I.P Emily.
So happy you guys got the hoodies and our note! You’re both such an inspiration and examples of what true grit is. It’s helped Jordan and our family so much just seeing you keep at it everyday. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! #NEVERGIVEUP
Seeing you in my notifications box truly does brighten my day. Thanks for sharing again, you two! All my love 🤗
I have those dizzy spells and with me its low blood pressure. It comes and goes. I LOVE the way you said the breakfast was crap...your honesty is so refreshing.
You have a fantastic wife and so brave both of you going through so much. Hugs from me an oldie keep fighting as I demand a cure for against all the Cancer things.
Jonathan Vince yes! We must demand for better and cures!

Oh wow Aisha is the best! What a lovely gathering of your friends you worked with Emily! How cool is that!!!! 💐💕❤️ I love how you two talk to each other it is so cute!!!! ❤️ Some lovely gifts you both received and I hoped it brightened you both up even if it was raining! To your blackouts I would ask your nurse. The only thing I can come up with is if you are lying down or sitting purposely move slowly so it won’t give you that black out feeling. But honestly I don’t know. You are still looking well and I am happy you are having some fun this week!! 😀 My day was shit but when I opened my phone and saw your notification I was all smiles and all my shit went away! Happy now!!! 😀🎊 Loving Aisha’s garden!!!!! Love to you both!!!! xx 😘❤️💕✌🏻 And sorry for the edits on my comments but I type like shit! 😂
It's so nice to see an update before I was expecting one, I always look forward to your videos. I love how real you are, I love your personality and motivation.
You're inspiring too. Thank you for being you, and your lass is an amazing lass too xxx
So glad to see you here and still fighting. Keep up the good work! And you are still looking lovely
Your positivity is inspiring & you two are adorable of course ❤
I absolutely love watching the pleasure that you and Aisha get from parcel opening. It also reminds me of all the good people in the world. Thank you for sharing your lives with us!
Beautiful girls ... Aisha I am so sorry for your loss ... Emily was so special x
Love to you all! Sending comfort and blue skies!! Loving your videos - just do them when you feel like it - we fans are patient! Take good care!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Positive healing vibes coming your way Emily. Xx
I could listen to you two talk forever. So glad I found your channel! ❤
I've only just came across your channel so I'm working backwards to watch all your videos. You are such an inspiration with everything you are going through. I love how you continue to be positive x
Loving the garden, wow!! Love you two so much. HOPE, LOVE, LIGHT FOR THE MIRACLE YOU DESERVE EMILY xxx
You two are so good together and such an inspiration xxx Much love n hugs 💕
Lovely surprise. As always, I am sending you positive, loving, healing energy.
I stumbled upon your channel and I’m just in awe! You’re such a strong person, it’s incredible how you manage to stay positive. You both are so cute together and I truly wish you’ll grow old together despite the odds! Sending you both love 💛
You two are so cute. Aisha was so excited about getting something in the mail! It was adorable. I’m so glad you are going to do more videos! Im happy to see that you are doing well Emily!
You're the loveliest people showing us how to live peace 💗
Aisha the garden looks amazing!! Hope ur enjoying the summery weather xx
Hi Emily, I’ve been following your videos for a few weeks and you are AMAZING! Your positivity is infectious as is your strength and resilience. I love the relationship between you and your girl also 😍. I look forward to your updates, stay strong! By the way, I agree with others - the blackouts sound like a low BP thing maybe? I’ve got really low BP, and am all over the place at times. Big hugs 🤗 xxxx
Aisha is such a ray of sunshine 💗 Emily you are doing amazing 💗 xxx
Love seeing Aisha in such a good mood! Love to you both
You two crack me up! I love watching the back and forth between you both. I can actually see the love and care that you have for one another and the fact that Aisha thought to invite your friends over to cheer you up was awesome. What a sweetie! I have low blood pressure as well and I have just learned to try to move slowly and purposefully when I get up and if I start to feel like the blackness is coming I find a spot to sit. It can be a bit embarressing to sit yourself down on the sidewalk or curb or in the mall on the floor but I've found it's much less embarressing than falling over fainted and cracking your head on the cement. Funny part of that story is that they called the ambulance and I was so embarressed that I pulled the sheet up over my face and people thought they were taking out a dead body from the mall. I can laugh about it now. Anyway, keep your chin up (and off the floor). Love you both lots.
You guys!! Your garden looks BOMB!! Way to go Aisha!!
Beautiful garden ,love seeing you both opening such thoughtfull gifts,love and light to you bothxx
You two are totally the best, you're always full of joy fun and laughter, and I'm sure that for you Emily it must be the hardest ever thing to be every time you come visit us, and as for Aisha, well!!!......she just amazing, to be always so cheerful and so encouraging for you, Bless her because I'm certain that cannot be easy for her especially when she loves you so much but she never complains and always has a smile on her very beautiful face. Emily I think those blackouts you asked our opinion on, is your blood pressure problem, I've also just come through two cancers (I've just been told I'm in remission, haha but then I've been told that before - I still keep smiling though) anyway I too get those blackouts and the oncologist says its the BP, so hopefully yours is for the same reason, I'm sure it will be. My love to you both and I have to say this, that to tell the truth its such a relief when I see your up on YT, I start looking from about 9pm then throw a big wobbly if your late lol. Hugs and loads of love to you both. Vicki xxx
Such a lovely, positive couple even through hard times you both stay strong, I wish you both nothing but the best ❤️
Hi Emily, lovely to see you feeling more upbeat! Looks like Aisha organised a fab suprise for you, she really is a diamond. Take it steady, sending lots of love as always ❤
Yes! Blood pressure will do that! I had it while pregnant. Scary I was just always afraid I was going to pass out! Hopefully this passes and and you get back to feeling back to your normal spunky happy energetic self! It puts me in sad place seeing you upset and not feeling great!💕
Emily you are so amazing, stoic and such a great girl. I have only recently found your vlogs on youtube. I admire you 100 percent for how you are handling such a gruelling condition and I love the way you put your vlogs together. You have real talent, courage and balls. XXX
Emily, my love to you and Aisha. What a wonderful surprise, to have some loved ones come over, so that you all can chill on an absolute gorgeous day ! keep on fighting, girlfriend , you've got lot's of people out there, around the world, pulling for you! Love and blessings Xxoo
Aisha you're so good at keeping things normal a great support for Emily. Emily you are just amazing, xxxx
I love your videos and your such positive attititude!! You and Aisha have a gorgeous flat/house and I absolutely love the garden and all the grass. You and Aisha always make me smile. You two are such a sweet couple and I am so happy that you both were able to have such a lovely wedding. I also keep you both in my prayers. I hope and I pray that you will go into remission. The doctors are not always right, you know!! Love to both of you❤
Emily your amazing, we are here because we love you both,keep fighting. X
Emily Hayward I never knew you but I watch your videos all the time. You were a very strong young woman, and your TH-cam family misses you very very much and I'm sure your girlfriend does too. You have been such an inspiration here on TH-cam and even though God has called you home you've made your mark on the world people are watching your videos everyday to gain inspiration as they fight cancer. I know you're in heaven but I hope you can hear this and I hope you can see this you are very loved and you are missed very very much every day. I wish I had had the chance to meet you maybe we'll see each other one day again in heaven may God bless your heart, you are loved ... rest in peace young lady 💖
OMG I love you girls. That Emily's eyes - so piercing, like they really see you when she looks at someone. And you two are so natural together. I could go on and on............
You and Aisha are the loveliest :)
So nice of Aisha to have friends come visit. It was funny how you knew something was up Emily, lol! Sorry you’re having so much dizziness, hope it’s resolved soon. Loving the garden!❤️ You two are just the cutest!
You are so inspiring, we recently found out my grandma has cancer. I think it's awesome that you still live your life.
I am so glad you could spend time with your friends; truly special gift. You take those bits of rest when you need to . We all will be here for you still when you wake. You have an incredible group of supporters worldwide, most of whom you'll never meet, but...who share one common goal to be here for you in thought, words and prayers. I will gladly give you some of my strength and since i have high blood pressure i will pass that along as well. Thinking of you.
.. your love, laughter
& kindness makes the
world go 'round ! .. 🌸🦋☘..
.. prayers continue for
comfort & encouragement
& strength.
Thank you, sincerely, for
inspiring & making my day
better. -- your fruit salad was
perfection. Wishing you both a
restful and peaceful goodnight,
& a wonderful, loving tomorrow. ☘
I feel so blessed and privileged to be a part of "this lot." There is nothing but love over here. I want to send Aisha a package just for her because I love her reactions so much (and of course because she deserves it). Love to both of you from Tennessee over here in the States. ❤
I have had the blackouts that you are having, for as long as I can remember I used to get them during growth spurts and I still get them for couple of weeks at a time sometimes collapsing to the floor. I have always been told they are ‘head rushes’ caused by standing up to quick and the blood pressure in your brain getting too low for a few seconds I can only suggest making a conscious effort to get up slowly when standing up, if lying down don’t go straight to standing but sit up for a few seconds first. Possibly try to be aware, that like with me sometimes they can make you collapse so be careful not to fall on anything and hopefully they will pass after a week or so. I hope this helps, and I want you to know that I honestly aspire to be more like you, a strong, honest, kind person who has a gift of bringing sunshine into peoples lives.
Sweetheart 💞 dont stress about how often you upload, please.
If youre struggling mentally or physically, aside from the meds I can honestly recommend breathing exercises and meditation, they are both fab for calming anxiety and are a fab coping mechanism.
Sending you all the love in the world...keep tearing the arse out of it kiddo...😘

It looks like you had a lovely time with all your friends 😊 Aisha is such a sweetheart surprising you like that. Sorry to hear about the new symptoms but you amaze me with how well you deal with it and are positive about the good days. Lots of love to you both as always 💖💖💖
I love your video's. You and Aisha are an inspiration to us all. (Hugs) Your garden is lovely!
Wow!!! The garden looks amazing. Sending you those good vibes, as usual. You two rock my world. I hope the blackouts subside... hugs!
Aisha you are so cute. “I got a separate note for just me!!!” Hope y’all had a great chill day. Rainy days and the cuddles are the best
I’m sorry things seem a bit rougher for you right now. I love you guys so much and wish you all the positivity and love in the world. You’re so strong Emily, it’s absolutely amazing. You better be so proud of yourself. You deserve everything.
The two of you are so damn adorable. I loved seeing Aisha come skipping out in the beginning with a huge smile and the garden is so lovely. The party looked great, all having a good time. Emily, yeah I think your right sweet pea, it's your blood pressure. Had that myself and was told to get up very slowly. It can be scary. I'm sure your doctor can advise you. Love you both!!!
I am just so in love with aisha. my heart melts evertime I see her in your videos.
You inspired me to workout today even though it’s not my favorite thing. Thank you for continuing to brighten our days through your vlogging.
Just want to say I don’t know you personally but you are a inspiration to people dealing with what you deal with, to stay positive, and keep fighting and not give up :) your amazing and keep fighting and doing what your doing. Your an inspiration. And don’t let it beat you, and take away your positive attitude and also Aisha she’s a credit to you! And herself ♥️
Your wife is such a ray of sunshine ❤️stay strong darl x
Emily you are strong and you are surrounded by so much love
Keep fighting, keep smiling and keep being you 💖💙💐😘 xxx
Aisha what a fantastic thoughtful surprise for Emily 💕💐
The gift of true love, quit amazing and lovely you two. ❤️
I have very low blood pressure. If I stand up too quick I pass out! Just take things really slowly when you go to stand up. Sending you girls loads of love. And thank you so much for the vlog. Xx
The garden looks so colourful, and Aisha you are such an angel 😇 looks like you had a great time at the barbecue. Sorry to hear your not feeling too good thanks for sharing your life with us. Take care 💖💖
I seriously love you Emily mate your just a complete utter babe wish you nothing but the best love Deano xxx
How fun it was watching you open your surprises. So bubbly and striving to find so much positiveness in each waking hour, though you feel like shit. Your amazing Em and Asha is such a gentle soul to have backing you . Take care girls and enjoy your special moments cuddles xxxxxxxxx
Looks like you had a lovely time with Aisha and your friends, fab vlog as always and really good to see you and know you’re ok. Blackouts sound tough to deal with - not a nurse so no advise but I do have something that I like to say to myself when times are tough (I have an autistic, non verbal toddler who struggles with going to sleep and meltdowns) and that’s the very simple phrase “this too shall pass.” I repeat it to myself loads when I’m struggling and it does really help, things do always pass and life gets back to being good again. You are such a strong woman and you should be so proud of yourself xxx
You two are freaking adorable!! ❤️
I always look forward to your notifications. Lovely surprise with the BBQ and the garden looks so tranquil.
Nice garden Aisha, you did well on the flowers arrangement and the setting for the garden party. Sorry you did not feel so well Emily, it will get better, my dear. I think you are dealing with a little low blood pressure ; talk to the doc. about it - Much love to you both oxox
It was so nice of Aisha to surprise you with a bunch of your friends Emily and her garden looks fabulous. She's a gem! I'm sorry you're experiencing a new side effect, but hopefully someone in the comments can offer you some helpful suggestions, but I would also ring your nurse and get her opinion as well. Always sending love and positivity to you both.
Sending all my love and positive energy. Keep on keeping on. Ps. Aisha is such a strong amazing woman. Your rock.
Emily stay strong! Thinking of you two even more now, being in the UK for a bit. Also as I work in cancer clinical study research field...I would wish nothing more than for Em to get better. Also Aisha is really such a babe...I need her energy! She's so purely happy and grateful for everything. I am also wondering if she's not originally from Newcastle upon Tyne area...I was there for 2 days and the accent really reminded me of her-I was turning my head all the time, thinking that she's next to me lol. Take care! Xxx
Aw, you can tell how tired you are and the drugs are really causing you grief. I believe you are going to “get back on it” so don’t worry about your vlogs. They are still awesome and you two are still amazing no matter what. I’m so glad Aisha got a nice present, and it looks great on her. I’m a newish subscriber and you are fascinating. I am well but have spent my life scared shitless of cancer. My mom died of it when I was 20. That was a long time ago and they didn’t have half the treatments they do today. So just go with it and the way you feel each hour and each day and when you can give more and do more you will. You are amazing. Aisha is amazing. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me and many many more.
I just love how Aisha is so positive and uplifting 😘💗 she’s adorable 💗 and Emily you are amazing xxx keep fighting girl xxx😘😘💪💪💪😘😘😘💗💗💕
I experienced the exact same symptoms Emily, whenever I stood up, my vision would be effected and I would see black patches , sometimes my hearing would be effected to and sometimes whenI had a very bad episode, I would feel really sick as well, mine was found to be a sudden drop in my blood pressure, making sure that you remain hydrated can help and that you are eating enough as well, it could well be that one or several of your meds, that they happen to lower your medication.
Was so thoughtful and kind of Aisha to invite a few of really close friends round, it’s so wonderful how she knows just what will lift you up , when you have had a challenging time, and you do the same for her her too. Love how gorgeous the garden is looking sending you both love and positivity xxxxxx
Always happy to see you've posted. I'm sorry you're experiencing side effects. I learned from you though to just look at it as an obstacle you'll bust through rather than waste time consumed in worry. Seriously, (I know I'm being verbose) ....you have given strength to so many.
Could tell you weren't quite yourself when you said 'you guys' and not your signature 'you lot'! :teasing:
I agree black outs could be blood pressure and you should rise slowly and sit a while before standing. No harm in giving the nurse a call. And enjoy chillin'!
Glad the painted stone arrived. It was a congrats for the wedding but it took a while to get there. Hope the stone 💎 in the ring atop the rock shines as you two do.
The garden is lovely, Aisha, as are you. How nice, Emily, to gather with 13 good mates. That in itself is a gift. That's my two cents times 2×2x2! LOL❤️ JC
It is absolutely beautiful out there! 🙏🏻prayers for you both love, you're both amazing!,
Emily and Aisha...you are such a beautiful and inspiring couple. Love you girls so so much!!!♡♡♡♡♡
Emily - It’s lovely to see you & Aisha enjoying time together and to watch you unwrapping gifts - you both deserve them! Please do take extra good care to really rest up whilst you are experiencing what sounds like very low blood pressure/feeling faint - understandably, you must be exhausted and in need of lots of extra rest. We all love you Emily & Aisha XXXX
Blackouts sounds like low blood pressure for sure, definitely mention that to your nurse as to what can help with it. Lovely to see both of your faces ♥️
Aw Emily I hope things get better and give u a break can see your down lately keep smiling beautiful ❤️ love how happy Aisha was with her parcel then open and had to model it she’s so cute and sweet 🙌🙌🙌 love u guys keep strong xxxxxx
That was so sweet of Aisha!! You look great in yellow btw. Thanks for the uploads!!! 😘
I love the CAT that's waddling off the table in the back ground at 9:22 - SO FUNNY - and you are an actual TROOPER emily and Aisha are so amazing - actual lovely genuine couple.
Awww!! Your wife is the bomb!! ☺️ I love you guys!! You hang in there Emily!! ❤
Sometimes I get blackouts in the morning, when i get up too quickly. I am on blood pressure meds, and I find if I get up very slowly...it helps.
Hey Em and Aisha, you two continue to inspire me. I have been married to my husband 19 years this July, together 23 years and you and Aisha feel like a couple that's been together that long. My chronic illness took away our chance to have kids, to travel, to do anything involving adrenaline because it makes me go into anaphylactic shock. I think your cancer has bonded you two as well. You've both been faced with adversity and continue striving and doing your best to stay positive. I love you both so much and I've never even met you. Seems odd, but seems right at the same time. Praying steady. You're a rock star xo😉🇨🇦❤p.s don't worry about how often you post, or what the content is like, we just want to see you and Aisha and Cookie and know you're all ok
