"Are my eyes crusty"? "Nope. They're beautiful". You both humble me. Thank you.
“Shaved my legs, feel ready for surgery.”
I felt that.
Peter, thank you for taking the time to film and share all this with us, even as you are probably busy helping Mary recover. Mary, thank you for being willing to share these challenging times with us.
DarkBlue Matter Thankyou for saying this-it’s absolutely, and completely true!! They didn’t have to share today with us-just shows us how special Mary & Peter are-these days, it seems “influencers” just want to show the wonderful & perfect-Mary & Peter show being “human”-something I get so much comfort from. It makes me feel not alone
PETER - make sure you take good care of yourself. Caretakers have a hard job; you do it SO WELL! You are so lucky to have each other & Ollie. Many bright blessings to you all always! HUGS from NYS.
Ollie loves riding with you mary... hes such a protector.....
I’m the same exact way about the helicopters at the hospital. I know that person and family is having the absolute worst day of their lives. 💜
I love how Ollie just rides the bed with Mary. So sweet! Hope you have a speedy recovery Mary!! ❤️🙏🏻
The first video I saw of you guys was a sinus surgery! I remember watching one and I didn't know you had CF. And you were coughing your guts out! And hubby was just talking over your coughing fit and I was like. ..dude... is she ok? She's dieing and your just chatting to the camera!? LOL I believe it was that same vid I learned more! Hope you feel better soon Mary!
Btw, it never ceases to amaze me how incredible Olly is.
Keeping you two (and Ollie!) in my thoughts and prayers! feel better Mary ♥️♥️
I pray this surgery helps you tremendously!
Btw NPO is Latin--nils per os = English translation of nothing by mouth
Love you both, Nurse Annette
Mary u brought tears to my eyes!! You never cease to amaze me. You are always thinking others. When you spoke of hearing the helicopter and knowing that someone else was having a harder time than yourself. You and Peter thinking of others as you endure hard times yourself is something I see you do not just seldom but nearly every vlog! I worked at a Children’s Hospital and it’s not easy to see child after child sick and especially in cases of abuse and neglect. But then there are patients like you and family like Peter that come along that make it all worth while. You are an absolute bright shining star! Keep Smiling Girl! We are praying for you, Peter, and sweet sweet Oliver!!
I'm so glad surgery went well Mary
Fingers crossed for no more constant headaches 🤗
xxxxx
its not just hospitals that she brings smiles to peoples faces. everyday on youtube thousands upon thousands of smiles because of mary and ollie and peter. ❤️👍🤪🙏💪
Wow. This video just popped up today. I was reading updates about your upcoming adoption. In this video, you talk about hearing helicopters flying into the hospital. You felt bad that someone was arriving in worse shape then you and you prayed. In the total of 5 sleepless nights (4 calls to the hospital) waiting to see if a kidney I was matched with was visible, I got to the point I could hear the holicoptorz arriving 3-4 minutes before anyone else could hear it at the hospital. It always made me pray for the people arriving for the same reason and feelings. On weekends, so many helicopters flew in. I still hear those helicopters. I live next to a highway the helicopters follow coming to the hospital from the south. If my windows are open, I still hear the familiar sound. It's so distinctive, I can tell the life flight helicopter apart from the other, smaller helicopters. 🙏❤️
5:17 LOOK at Ollie smiling! It's a carnival ride for him to go on the bed! Dogs love a ride in the car! HAHA!!! xD
Way to go!! You rocked that surgery !!❤️❤️ just think about going out on the boat and the wind in your hair and feeling the sunshine!!!❤️Hugs to you three!!
Praying for you Mary! That you have a quick recovery and the headaches will be gone for a long time!
Bless your heart, Mary. I'm so glad it's over now and I'm sure you are too. Been praying for you and will definitely continue doing so. I hope this helps your headaches!
I’m in need of sinus surgery because I have scar tissue and inflammation through mine and seeing her go through this gives me hope in a way. Almost all doctors won’t do sinus surgery until you are over the age of 18 because of the fact your face is still growing and you have a higher chance of your sinuses“collapsing”. Being that I am 18 now it’s more just the game of when is the pain to much to handle. I have been almost scared to do it questioning if I should just keep suffering or go through with it. But I feel if she has had sinus surgery 3 times now I should do it. yes there might be complications but I should attempt to give myself a life without constant pain. So thank you for showing us because it has helped me.
I’ve been so worried about you. So happy you’ve kept us up to date. Love you both. 💙
If you’re nervous and/or in pain your blood pressure can be raised, which can give you nose bleeds. It’s no biggie. You’re going to make it! :)
Good luck honey, third times the charm!
billieblue Sheepie pain sure does this, I just had a kidney stone and was shaking from excruciating pain and the er nurse who took my blood pressure looked quite concerned. 😂
Maybe the air is also really dry in that hospital room. That can cause nosebleeds too. That’s why my doctor recommends to always lube up my nose with Vaseline when the air is really dry.
she'll have to have the surgery again -- with CF the sinuses will continually fill up and block, unfortunately :(
Mary, it breaks my heart to see you in this pain. Prayers for you always sweet girl!! No matter how much pain you are in or struggles you are dealing with you always brighten so many peoples lives. And Peter you are the most amazing husband and Ollie you are just amazing too little Buddy!! May God continue to lay His precious Loving hands on all of always!! Much Love Always!!!💞
Get better soon, Mary! 🌸 Sending much love from Vienna, Europe! 😚💜 and of course big hugs for your two loving men 👱🏼🐶
Rest, rest, rest! I wish a speedy recovery to you, Mary. And, omg Ollie was the cutest! What a good and faithful puppy!
You're so brave Mary. I pray that you have a speedy recovery and can go home soon!
I'm giving Mary all the thumbs up. She's a trooper and I'm cheering her on all the way from France :) You got this, beautiful Mary. And Peter and Ollie, thank you for being by her side always. You are great, too.
Sending lots of love and healing thoughts to you Mary, and bless you Peter and Ollie for being the best and most wonderful support system ♥️ Love you all!
Mary, the strongest woman. You've got this. Sending positive thoughts to you.
Strong family (Peter and Ollie) support.
Feel better soon Mary. I am surprised they can't give anything for the pain like they do every other surgery. We love you.
Thank you for updating us on Mary's recovery. Prayers to you all and prayers for a speedy recovery and that the headaches are gone for a long time!
Feel better soon! You are SO VERY LOVED!!!🙏🏻💙💙💙
I’m so thankful you have your baby(Ali). I love how much he means to you all through these really rough times. Prayers
Glad surgery went well and your are recovering. Praying for all of you.
Thank you for sharing this hard time when I am sure the last thing you want to be doing is talking with others. We appreciate all that you two do. Wishing a speedy recovery.
Mary, you are so amazingly strong...and Peter, you are such a rock. As a caregiver for my mom for several years, I know the challenges and support it takes. You both are in my prayers always!
Hoping and praying that the pain and bleeding are gone today! Feel better soon! Love to all of you! Olli and Peter are such an awesome support team!
You're both so strong. Here's cheering for speedy healing! ❤️❤️❤️
You're both amazing, what a wonderful husband and wife team! God bless you both. X X
Continued healing and recovery. I remember the last surgery very well. I hope this recovery process continues the way it has begun. It's a noticeable difference. Hugs!!
Ughhhhh! I can't stand the first day after surgery! That's ALWAYS the toughest! You Got This Mary! Wishing and praying your pain eases today and your blood-flow slows to normal! Blessings, Grannie Annie from Maine
Girl, I just had open heart surgery 4 weeks ago. I was in the ICU for 2 weeks leading up to it and was quite a nervous wreck and honestly, I could not imagine what I would feel like on surgery day. When it finally came I was calm. I was totally at peace with what was happening. Had I not had surgery I would not be alive right now, my surgeon had told me that with certainty. I had prayed about it and although we don't really talk about that kind of stuff i know my CT surgeon is a man of faith so I was sure he has prayed about it, too. I've had many surgeries and this should have been the scariest because nobody knew if I would even get off the table but I knew that I was too sick and weak to live very much longer without it, I trusted my surgeon completely, and I trust our God, you know? But it was kind of strange to be totally at peace with such a huge operation. Small things have freaked me out much more but when you're ready, you're ready. Had you done this 2 months ago or even 2 weeks ago, you might not have been there yet. It all seemed to line up perfect... God's perfect timing! I'm glad you recovered and went home so quickly!
I’m so glad the surgery is over and your on your way to recovery and less headaches! Keeping you both in my prayers.
You’re so sweet Mary. I love how you’re always thinking of others!
Mary and Peter, we love y’all so much and stand with you. Thank you for sharing this with us. Mary is so brave. Seeing Ollie accompany her to pre-op was a comforting thing. Keep healing, Mary! 💙
Prayers for a speedy recovery, Mary! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’ve never seen anyone look so beautiful just after surgery. Praying for you both 🙏🏻
I love how Ollie just takes everything in his stride and makes sure you're OK - such a great service dog and a truly wonderful partnership. We are looking into service dogs for my mobility issues and PTSD, which is how I came across your channel. Thank you for choosing Joy :)
Be well, Mary! Soon you will be home and feeling better!
So glad everything went well♡ been thinking of you guys all weekend. Continued prayers for yal and keep on keeping on. Love you guys!👫🐶💜💜
I've never had surgery but as a person with chronic pain, I sympathize Mary, I really do. Here's to your recovery! Feel better soon hun!
Good luck and get well soon. Much love from St. Louis MO.
So impressed with your resilience (both of you!). Mary - how do you manage to look so lovely when you’re just out of surgery?! Praying that you make a speedy recovery 🙏🏻 x
I hope now that it's 2 days out the pain has subsided. Thank you so much for vlogging even on days like these -- I have been watching your vlogs for so long that I feel like we're good friends, and always miss when you don't post (from vacationing, etc).
Thumbs up for Mary, but also Peter and Ollie for supporting :)
Beautiful video. Mary is so strong. Peter you would be an excellent film maker. Thank you for sharing this.
Much love and glad it’s done! Prayers and healing sweet girl.
seeing Ollie on your bed riding to surgery brought tears to my eyes....he loves you so much. wishing you a speedy recovery and hope it brings you relief of your headaches...
You got this girl!! You’re a strong young lady and you have my love, hugs and prayers to you sweetie!! Love from Lori in Indiana ❤️🙏😇🥰🤗‼️
I was crying by 4:15..... Mary, you honestly are a complete rock star. Praying this surgery clears this infection, and helps your headache issues!!
Have a fast recovery Mary your amazing keep strong rest easy
Mary has been on my mind since Friday!! Hope all goes well. Prayers of a speedy pain free recovery! Love you guys!
So thankful it is over and you are on the other side. You are one tough young woman. Continuing to pray for a speedy recovery. God Bless you and your family 🙏🏻💗🐶
Peter Mary, and Ollie boy, I'm so glad to see that Mary made it through the surgery so successfully. I know from when my mom had her lung removed that hospitals though they are where we must go to be healed are not always the best places to recover in. My prayers are with you both that the pain is better now two days post surgery.
I bet Ollie was soooo happy to be with you post op! 🐶❤️🙏🏻
You all three are an inspiration to me. Mary's such a little trooper and Ollie is so sweet with her and Peter holds you all together. God bless you all.
Sending positive thoughts and prayers to you, Peter and Ollie! I am sorry that you have to go through the pain of surgery. You are incredibly brave, Mary!
Mary is such a warrior woman! And she looks so beautiful even after surgery! I'm sending healing prayers. I hope you are feeling better soon and are headache free for a long time.
Praying for a speedy recovery!!!!
It was very emotional watching Mary go through all of the pain. I don't usually comment on your videos, but I just had to tell you how much I love you two. I watch you every day and you actually add so much to my life. Stay strong Mary. I'm praying that the new medication will be the best thing since sliced bread.. Blessings from Northern Canada
Do what you got to do!
Praying for you ❤️👍🏼
Rest!
Bless your heart, Mary. You are such a trooper.❤️ I’m praying for quick, complete recovery w/o complications.
I'm amazed that the hospital and surgical team is so cooperative with Ollie. That sure makes it more comfortable for you to not have to deal with people that are afraid of dog germs and dander. I wish you a speedy recovery.
Prayers for you Mary! I hope you’re feeling better ASAP!
You Did It!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Get your rest and may God grant a speedy and healing recovery🙏🏼❤️
I like to look at life the same way. No matter how bad things are, someone always has it worse 😥😥 I wish nobody had to go through these things. You got this Mary!
Praying for you Mary! Peter, you are such an awesome husband caring for Mary through the good times and the hard times. You too are such a blessing and sharing this journey with all of us, although tough at times I'm sure, is so appreciated. I just want to let you know how much hope you give to those of us who are dealing with our own health challenges.
Ollie is so cute. Loved seeing how he also cared for Mary during this difficult time. He is so precious!
Praying blessings on you all and a quick recovery for Mary.
Mary is such a beautiful soul. We all could hope to be so positive in the midst of a chronic illness. This particular video was from awhile ago but this gal is amazing every day. God bless you and keep you both. Love you ❤️✝️
I am glad Mary’s surgery went well...I was thinking about you guys all day Friday...you are a trooper...sending lots of prayers for a quick recovery...and love and thoughts to both of you and Ollie too...you are BOTH AMAZING and AWESOME...from New York💕🙏🏻
I cried for your pain. I am glad you alive after the surgery. Ollie was so cute sniffing your face. I praying for recovery for you.
Mary, Ollie and Peter bring smiles to my face !! Love you all ! Take care and feel better soon !!!
Praying for you. My heart goes out to you. I have had 4 sinus surgeries over the years. It's pretty crappy for a day or two, but so worth it in the end. It sounds like you know that already. Hang in there. You are a trooper. God bless.
Hope you are healing well and hope you get better soon Mary!
Mary you are so strong and beautiful! Even in the toughest physical times your light shines to those around you. Peter you are a wonderful husband at your wife's side through all the ups and downs of this journey. I love watching you guys navigate these times. Best channel on UA-cam.
