We have an adorable standard poodle, Oliver, and a hairless sphynx cat, Harry. It's our hope that these videos can be an encouragement to to celebrate the little things in life and find joy amidst a world full of hard realities!

I was so glad I was able to get out of the car and promptly curl up in the fetal position on the couch... ouch. This was one of the worst ones I’ve had. Cheering for you guys as you walk through whatever today looks like!
I know how you feel I suffer from migraines too (lupus related) last migraine was awful no one was home with me and I sat in the bath to see if it would help and my kitty (Benjamin) who normally hates water won’t go anywhere near it lol came in the bathroom and sat next to the tub , suddenly I didn’t feel as alone . Funny how in tune our pets are with how we feel like “oh my human needs me lol “ hope you feel better Mary (loved your reactions to the hummingbirds !)
Damn! I know how hard them Migraines are! Don't you just wish you could talk to it and tell it to go away? I know I do. When I get them I get mad at everything that walked and moved. and I'd get them at the worst times!
@@natysm25 Dang I'm so sorry you had to go through that.
Mary...this is Victoria...I was "experimenting" with maxalt and it actually did nothing for me and actually could have been the reason they got worse!
Also...does your blood pressure drop or raise rapidly during migraines???
Peter, as a woman with a disability whose husband is often in the helpless position of being unable to make my struggles go away, I want you to know that your presence is likely the best medicine. For me, just knowing I have my husband here to walk beside me through hard moments, helps tremendously. You're helping. I know it.
Lol i try and tell my hubby this but he is a Mr. Fix it. He struggles so much. Sometimes im tempted to ask him for stuff i dont need just to make him feel like he is doing something.
I want Ollie to say something! He’s always got that look like he’s about to talk and I’m here waiting for it!! 😂😂
Ollie is the real joy for me. Hes so darn cute. Animals know when you need them to comfort you.
Thank you so much. I don't feel alone because of you. I am too sick to spent time with my friends, but I can be with you every day and it makes me SO happy. Love you
Me too! 🥰🙏
I also want to mention, as a fellow chronic migraine sufferer, I have days where I won't have a migraine and I will just look at my husband and say I am so thankful today is not a migraine day! Man, when you get them so bad like that you really appreciate every second without one! ❤
Glad Ollie Poodle sweetness, hummingbird songs, Peter love and Harry hugs help you through.🐾🧡
The birds sound peacefully especially when you don't feel well. Feel better soon Mary
I love how you guys can finish each other’s sentences! Peter knew exactly what you where talking about when you said “did you turn that off”.
It’s awful suffering from migraines they are the nastiest of all pains. Prayers that you and your doctor can find a solution to these headaches. You two are both an inspiration to a lot of people and it’s your honesty that is a big part of that. Continue to be led by God
Have you looked at “Ice-Kap” head packs? We keep one in our freezer for Martin’s severe sinus headaches and they really help. They come from Canada and their delivery is very speedy!
My daughter has awful migraines and had one last night. We have just started using an icekap, it's really helping her thank goodness, it's hard watching her in such pain. Would definitely recommend the icekap. Lots of love Mary, hope you are feeling better. Xx
Helen Houghton sending your daughter gentle hugs. I hope she feels better soon. I generally get rid of the headache during the first day, but the nausea can last for several days afterwards. xxxxxxxx
Oh, Mary... I'm so sorry you had such a horrible migraine. You are so brave, sweetie! Prayers for your health and well being!
Thank you for taking us along with you! Cheering on from Chicago!
I must have felt you yesterday Mary because I had the worst headache and nothing was helping, so I laid down and closed my eyes and put on one of your old vlogs of when you were having a bad headache, and it made me not feel like I was in it alone. Chronic illness can be isolating, so I really treasure you and your videos as a way to comfort myself and feel less alone in the harder times. Sending hugs and wishing those headache away.
I've been dealing with waves of a migraine that started on Sunday, but the worst of it hit last night. So I know exactly what you are talking about! I relate to all the odd little coping mechanisms to just get through it. Both of my fur babies came and cuddled me too 💕 they just know. Glad you are on the other side of it now!
I’m so glad you were able to get to the other side that terrible, painful headache. Each day is it’s own and tomorrow will be a new one! Rest well tonight Mighty girl!
I’m sorry you’re going through such pain. You’re both in my prayers!
Your truth about your journey with CF is so inspiring. Anyone with a chronic illness is hopefully following you. I could be your grand daughter but you inspire me in my journey through rheumatoid arthritis.
Ollie knew you were not feeling good he loves you and peter what a sweetheart.
FEEL BETTER MARY
Aww Mary I’m sorry you had such a hard day!! Today was actually pretty hard for me as well. I’ve been crying off and on all afternoon and evening, and am just struggling because of how much stress I’m under at work and how it’s affecting my already poor health. It’s always a good reminder to know that we’re not alone in this so thank you for that! Hugs 🤗
Hope your feeling better Mary , sorry you had a rough day , thankful we have a new day tomorrow .
🙏🏼✌️💛🤎🧡
I am so sorry Mary, that sounds so horrible! I am praying for you and your doctors to develop a plan that fits your body better! Be blessed you guys.
I hope that you are feeling better today, Mary! I had brain surgery last week and am having a major headache day today...but praise God, I am feeling a little stronger everyday since coming home.
Just hugs. You are the sweetest couple. I am so sorry that your day was so painful.
Oh Mary, i feel for you 😥 Migraines are so debilitating and intense. I started having them about 10 years ago. Coughing when you have a migraine takes the pain to a whole new level & i don't blame you for crying, they are awful. If only we could all have a Peter in our lives. Don't feel bad Peter, just your presence for Mary I'm sure will be a comfort to her. Take care of yourselves and rest up Mary 😊❤ xx
I know EXACTLY what you’re talking about! I’m glad you have medicine that helps and all your support !
Love hearing the Hummers chirp. I love hummingbirds. Suggestion , you should paint Hummingbirds.
We’re cheering for you too, Mary. I used to get brutal migraines - like lost weekends lying in the dark. I went on a preventative that worked really well so maybe you could ask your doctor about that. It changed my life. You have so much to deal with, Mary, I think you have a great attitude. Peter is a blessing for sure. Take care both of you. ❤️🇨🇦
I hope you are feeling better. I started watching you in March. Hardly miss a day now. My sister asked me how I found you. Thinking back I believe it was Ollie. I love poodles and doodles and UA-cam recommended you because of my viewing history. So I owe Ollie a debt of gratitude. You two bring sunlight to my day. Bless you. My daughter suffers from chronic migraines. I relate to Peter’s feeling of feeling helpless to do something to ease the suffering of someone you love. My prayers are with you. See you tomorrow!
Hope you feel better soon, Mary!😇🕊
I'm so sorry you had a painful day. Right now I've been dealing with bell's palsy for over 6 weeks. My left eye cannot close all the way, and today, I couldn't see out of it at all. Constant use of eye drops and wet wash cloth was my day. On the bright side, my order from your store came today and, Mary, it was signed by you! That brought me joy❤
Oh Mary, I feel for you with the migraines. I’ve had the ones where there’s nothing you can do but cry and just rock back and forth. Praying for a good night’s rest for you and Peter ❤️
It has to be heartbreaking for you, Peter, to see Mary suffering through a severe migraine. Very little you can do but be there for her. I believe that Ollie & Harry knew that you weren’t feeling well and were trying to comfort you the only way they knew how.....so precious. Praying that you are able to have a good discussion with your physician about your headaches and the possibility of trying other options. God bless you! 🤗❤️❤️🙏🏼😘🐕🐱
Feel better Mary. I love the birds! Peter is such a wonderful husband.
Awwww hummingbirds are magical. Feel better Mary!
Ollie is so sweet
Mary I hope you feel better with your migraines soon 💕 Prayers for you
So sorry for your pain, Mary. I've only had one really severe headache in my life, about 50 years ago, and I've been so thankful not to have had another one like it. My heart goes out to you when you have those things. I pray you are much better today. Oh, and Ollie looked so sweet, I know he was being very sympathetic.
I use to have migraines. It did help to soak my feet in very warm to hot water. Ollie goes right back to service mode to help you.
I’m sorry you had a tough day. Hopefully you have relief soon and for an extended period. ❤️❤️❤️
Mary, I watched this video last night and this morning I woke up with a bad headache, so I was thinking about you. I've had migraine level headaches before, so I feel your pain; glad you were feeling better enough to make this video
Feel better Mary!
I love you both💜💜 Praying for you Mary🙏🙏
Mary I have never had a headache that bad, but I know where you are coming from. My mother and I both suffer with migraine headaches. When I get headaches I can not do anything. One woke me up last week. I will pray for both of you. My mother also says hello. Peter when i watched this video the Lord put on my heart the verse from Ephesians. "Husbands love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her" Ephesians 5:25. Peter you live that verse so well.
Feel better Mary! I loved the hummingbirds🌺
o sorry it was terribly rough a migraine. I am Praying for you for healing of these . You are such a courageous warrior! And you are a trusting lamb of the Lord's, and grateful pilgrim, with a good sense of humor!
So sorry Mary that you had to go through this pain Peter is such a great help and so sweet that he feels so helpless for you I know that feeling we would love to take it for ourselves hope you feel better ❤️
Also make sure you keep your head like sitting up. It helps with my migraines alot. I love your videos. You guys are uplifting.
3 things that help my migraines, 1 sunglasses that are like a visor and block the light out - keep in purse or car for onset when you're out. 2 eat something low blood sugar prolongs them (feeding tube if nauseous?) 3 ice pack on head (i use the gel ones they are more comfy).
I though I was the only one who did the thing with my feet while having a migraine. It's my coping mechanism when I'm suffering intense pain.
I just found your channel while searching for upcycling a busted outdoor glass table and that led me to watching a few more of your videos.
You are a very strong woman and a wonderful couple. I'm off to watch more of your videos to see your journey with CF.
All the best wishes from Perth Western Australia.
I have that same blanket! It is so soft. Hope your migraine is better today
I can relate with the migraines. I have degenerative discs in my neck which cause severe migraines. Dark room , ice and meds is the only thing that helps. Animals sure can sense the pain and want to make sure your ok. Ollie and Harry are such good therapy. 💕
@Tiff Roybal
Oh yes they can-! Animals can most definitely sense your pain,... physical and mental-!! God Bless You-!
💜💜💜
So glad the migraine finally started to taper off and you were able to somewhat enjoy your hummingbird ninja wars. We love watching them chase each other and do their little ninja warfare. We have one hummingbird that is the hardest working hummingbird in town. He "stands" guard over the front feeder...and the only other hummer allowed to feed on it must be his "woman"...as he chases every other hummer away. He'll do this from dawn till dusk...and even stayed through the winter last year. We had no idea how truly BRUTAL they were to each other! lol. Anyway....I'm praying for you and your migraines!
I'm sorry you have such bad headaches. My sister gets terrible migraines. I have them on occasion but I don't think there as severe. I just want the light off and sleep. Your hummingbirds sound like a lot of fun. Ollie is still attentive and knows when you're having a bad time. Does he still alert to your blood sugar? God Bless. I hope you're feeling better soon. 😁👋💖
Oh Ollie so worried about you.
So adorable
To have the love you both have melts my heart💗
Ollie and Harry know Mommy wasn't feeling good .
Rachel Carl Ollie always makes me feel better
I know the migraine you mean 😭 I also do the counting thing sometimes when I'm in crazy pain (migraine or other). It helps distract and focus my mind on something else.
Thank you for the encouragement today. I've woken up with really painful hands - my arthritis has decided to go play there today apparently 🙄 I always watch your videos as I get up and out of bed. Sporting my do what you think you can't do t-shirt and hoodie today as a reminder. Thank you for sharing the hard times with us too, seeing someone else get through them can help remind me that I too will get through today and tomorrow can be better ❤
Headaches are so awful! I am so sorry. We have hummingbirds, love watching them.
Get feeling better soon mary
Chronic migraine sufferer here, I was at work the other night when one came on worse then I’ve had in a while, and I woke up today with one and had to take meds twice before it went away, I feel for you, love you guys!
Oh Mary! I suffer with terrible awefulllll migraines also! It's nice to know I'm not alone.
Loving the vlogs keep it up Mary and Peter
Feel Better Soon Lots Of Love
Hoping you are feeling better, Mary! Something that happens often when I get my migraines is that a habit like counting or re-playing a scene in my head (like maybe from a game that I have played or a movie I have watched) will begin to "play" on loop, and will often times make me feel even dizzier and more nauseous. The worsttt. I am sorry to hear you got such a bad migraine. To this day I remember my top 3 migraines pretty clearly. On the last one (about 10 years ago) I cried uncontrollably for a while until it made my migraine worse. Anyway, enough about me... wishing you a speedy recovery.
Having migraines myself I understand what May was saying about Peter putting his hand on her helped. Sometimes it's grounding for someone to be there, touching you, knowing they are trying to help but unsure what to do. It gives you something else to try and focus on as well a can calm the overactive nerves by redirecting your brain and thought processes to some other stimuli. As a chronic sufferer my heart breaks that May seems to get these headaches and then migraines more frequently and severely. Thoughts and prayers sent your way.
Coughing with migraines has sent me over the edge many a time due to asthma. It's absolutely miserable!! You can't sit still, can't move, can't focus, can't talk, can't breathe.... you just are at that point and pray the coughing fit ends sooner rather than later.
Maxalt doesn't do much for me either. The thing I found that provided most relief was adding Zyrtec to my daily meds. The pain is not nearly as severe. Much love to you. Migraines are a whole different type of disabling.
Beautiful humingbirds!
Glad you are feeling better, our fur babies know and will comfort us, oh and about the hummingbirds they are very territorial and will have tiffs, maybe spread the feeders farther apart to give more distance, that's what I had to do it does help.
Glad your feeling better Mary"...♡
I am so sorry that you had such a terrible migraine after your hospital visit! It is such an awful feeling and it’s made worse when you know all you can do is ride it out. I am praying that your doctors can adjust your medications so that they can get you on a more effective preventative so that your migraines happen less frequently.
Please give Ollie hugs 🤗 for me. Feel better soon!
My heart goes out to you and fellow migraine sufferers 🥺
For some reason I have had a migraine each week for the last two and a half weeks, they lasted 2-3 days and I started feeling one trying to come today. Ive never experienced this before and its concerning. I normally get two or three a year, not within two weeks of each other 🥴 I will call the doctor if I have another one within the next few days.
Hummers are very Territorial, you might move one feeder to the front yard or further back in the backyard.
I pray your migraine went away soon after you recorded this🙏🏼
Hugs to you and Peter, Ollie and Harry
So sorry ur going through this love.will pray for you.u are a very strong young woman with a wonderful husband by ur side.take care love
Isn't it funny just to have your pets with you, but the human touch of a loved one's hand is sometimes the best medicine.
I can understand your pain! I can't take lights, noise until it starts going away. I so do cry like a baby times ten. I throw up as well. I love watching your videos
when I had my worst migraines, I would always throw up... I hope you feel better quickly...💟
Relatable. One of my conditions has a high suicide rate due to the extreme head/back pain. I feel ya, girl.
FightLikeAGirl Pain can be all consuming....I trust God to get me through those times. CRPS II known as suicide disease. I get ya!
We had to move our hummingbird feeder. They fight too much! Praying for you to be strengthened.
I'm thankful that you were able to rest at home with Peter and the pets! Are the headaches caused by your CF treatment? Thank you for being vulnerable with us, God bless
Hummingbirds are very active at night for food. I sit for. Hours watching them. Now there gone until next year .I miss them so.
I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers!
I suffer from near daily headaches and have several migraines a month. I once had a migraine that lasted 2 weeks. Yes, 2 weeks. With another 3 weeks of lingering post migraine head pain. It was literal hell.
I feel for you Mary! x
Mary I hope you the doctors can get you straight with the headache and you feel better soon
I had the headache from hell on Sunday. It was 2 days after IVIG. It was horrible. Thank goodness for pain meds.
Praying for u. “Pray without ceasing”.
Mary my Dr sent me to Physical Therapy and they put something called dry needles in my back and neck and yesterday was the first day in a while that I didn’t have a bad headache. I’ll keep you informed as the treatments progress. I do the counting too waiting for my meds to kick in ,but I have a lot of chronic illnesses, I take Maxalt for the migraines.
Hello Frey family, My heart hurts for you. Many prayers for you.
Sorry to hear about your migraine I suffer from them as well get well soon Mary
The Zofran you popped on the way to the hospital may have made the headache worse. Hope you’re feeling better. Thank you both for sharing your journey with us.
Mary, one of my chronic illnesses is chronic migraines. It's horrible & I'm so sorry you're going through that. One of the things I find that helps me is to think of how God controlled the situation. For example, I didn't have my migraine at Church, I got it after I got home. Or one time, I was at an appeal hearing after one of our corrupt welfare officers took my benefit away from me (they get bonuses here in the UK if they deny a person a benefit or take it away). The lights in the appeal court triggered a migraine, but God enabled me to be well enough to go back in for the decision. Yes, I'm very grateful, but this is not about being grateful & sucking it up. It's about being grateful & realising that God is right there with you, helping you through it by controlling the situation; He loves you that much & you're not alone. It's about focusing on God & allowing Him to be a comfort to you. And Peter, you've helped me through countless migraines. When I can't do anything due to a migraine, I like to put one of your podcasts on. I wish Mary wasn't going through this, but since she is, I hope it gives you at least some understanding of how helpful your podcasts are to me in the midst of a migraine. You help me to focus on God instead of the stupid migraine. Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.
Wow that's aweful about your bad headache. You haven't had anything like that in a long time huh? Ollie knows you had a hard time of it and he has empathy for you. Dogs are too sweet. Sending love girl. And prayers , sandy . That poodley poodle face is adorable.
I hope you’re feeling better now, Mary. I have 4 hummingbirds around my little feeder. They never eat together, it’s always one at a time. I have never heard them chirp
He is so sweet cause he has sweet parents
I’m so sorry that you are getting these migraines. I used to get them frequently (teens to early 30s)and I remember a few that had me almost calling an ambulance. They were very scary. Also my son began getting them during early puberty and I knew just what he was going through but still you can’t really do much but let him know I’m there. I pray these will ease up for you.
I’m sorry you have to go through this.
I count to cope too when I have migraines! especially when I'm eating for the meds to kick in!
Praying you find something that helps with these headaches xxxx
I have migraines as well and they are miserable! I have to use cold packs too. It hurts to move but it’s hard to sit still! Prayers for you!
Thankyou
