We went, we conquered, we did it 💪🏻 keep on keeping on... whatever today holds my friends!
I watch it because it's so cool and interesting to me
Best video ever. One of my friends has CF and I told her about this channel. Thanks for re-tweeting my tweet about my hair thanks so much.
Hey do me a favor every time you wake up in the morning marry you stand in front of your mirror and say 10 × to yourself do what you think you can't do that's your slogan I started using it if you do that everyday I would think that would help you go girl you're a fighter and you're going to be on this Earth for a long time love you both
The Frey Life y’all could message lull mattress. I’m not sure if they’d give y’all any free mattress for that purpose(since it’ll be at the companies digression) but I know they’ve sponsored other UA-camrs. Just thought I’d put that out there 🙃
You are So inspiring, happy you made it through--not a watcher.
You know you are a fan of The Frey Life when your dog gets excited and sits down next to you when they hear the theme song 😂❤😍
THATS ADORABLE
Jennifer Newman mine both do the same 😂
My cat is does this!
@@carolv8450 perhaps. I mean Ollie is so adorable! It could be the fact that I watch The Frey Life everytime one premieres so it is kind of like our little thing that we do. We get comfy and watch the video together. ❤
@@Katelovessoup 😍 maybe someone needs to start the Ollie Frey Club or something! For all of the pets that love the Frey life just as much as we do!
I’m a watcher! It doesn’t hurt any more than not watching. It intrigues me.
Bladder pads help with coughing and peeing in pants. When I was sick I would sneeze and pee pants. It help saves the undies. Since now I'm in the medical field now I watch immunization and blood drawing.
Mary and Peter, You are both living proof how life goes on. There can be bumps in the road but it's important to do what you think you can't do. I am a watcher. I'm glad they could fit you in. Thank goodness for that mask. The two of you are so sweet. Recycling is so important. Years ago there was no recycling but there wasn't as many things to recycle back then. Oh Ollie boy, you make everyone happy.
So pleased you are a home hospital patient. Mary, get yourself some pads to use on the occasions of when you are peeing and coughing. Believe it or not, a lot of women have bladder leakage at stressed moments. It isn't anything to be embarrassed about and definitely easier than clothing changes. Been there, done that. I hope you coped overnight with the antibiotics.
Lyn R Agreed! And not the plastic kind that health agencies will provide, those just make you uncomfortable and kinda feel like puppy pads, buy the nice fabric ones!! theyre way more comfortable and reusable (better for the environment too) and they just overall feel less like you put a plastic bag under your bum.
(and they're super easy to bleach, and they're even helpful for when feeding tubes decide to explode, which from experience i know happens a lot no matter what you do lol)
I'm 71 years old and I totally adore the two of you. Beautiful couple. Feel better Mary.
I love you two! & Ollie Boy. Hope you have a great Tuesday. Feel better Mary! You two are so inspiring ❤️ & keep me motivated to keep going even when I don’t want to.
I have to lie down to get shots or blood work done. Needles cause panic attacks for me, but if I am laying down I feel calmer and it is harder to see what they are doing.
Google "Bits phobia". It's perfectly OK.
Same
100% WATCHER - I know what it looks like when its done correctly and if they mess up, I can see it when it happens! Especially blood work- I am a very hard stick so when I see the blood flow into the test tube, I release a huge sigh of relief! Keep fighting Mary! Peter, you remind me so much of my husband! Men like you are few and far between! Mine takes such great care of me and does whatever possible to help me! And I am sure Mary agrees - its such a freeing feeling to know that you have someone who will literally be beside you through sickness, in health, & in more sickness!
I'm a non-watcher turned watcher over years of chronic illness. And Mary, I totally understand having these random ambitions, yet not having the ability or energy to work towards any of them. Hope the new antibiotic will be helpful with few side effects. By the way, I've enjoyed watching your channel since I discovered it in youtube, and getting my daily dose of Frey Life has helped me cope with my situation and chronic pain. Thanks for allowing us into your lives! And big hugs to the Ollie boy!
So glad you where able to go home!!! I am a watcher I hate not knowing what they are doing!
Watching Peter sitting in the hospital wearing a thick padded vest had me sweating.
I always watch needles going in, not that I get many done. Thankful for good health.
I’m a 100000000% watcher during blood work and shots. I have got to know when it’s coming so I can expect it at that exact moment of being stuck with a needle. Lol
Same 🙂
@Emily Kelly I am the same way! I hate needles but I have to watch them draw blood or give shots but I can't see the needle when I'm giving myself an insulin injection. It's weird! LOL!!
I’m a watcher!!!!! I get blood taken every 21 days for chronic illness and my phlebotomists always are like “ are you sure you want to watch” and I say YES!!! ❤️ from a fellow Massachusetts resident!
I am a watcher. Needles don't bother me at all. One time they asked if I wanted to watch my heart catheterization. I said "Of course!" 🙏 🙏🙏 Mary that this new med takes it a little easier on you. Love to you both!! 😊👍🎄⛄💜
I was a watcher until I got Allodynia. Now it's numbing cream and tears. Wishing you peace and fortitude to get through this challenge. Cuddles to Ollie.
My family is dealing with medical emergency this week and realizing how blessed we are and we have zing medical team helping us you two bright my days thank you
I watch! (= I've had 4 surgeries the last year for my motility disorder and I watch the doctors do everything to me
I am a fan of your videos and really enjoy them! I am so glad everything went well for the new antibiotic. I don’t have CF but I do have only 40% lung function due to heart disease and pulmonary hypertension. I am on 10 LPM oxygen 24/7 since Jan 2009 so I know how it feels to struggle to breathe due to asthma etc. Can’t get the air in and can’t get it out, horrible. I feel for you Mary. When my second son was born there was a big scare that he had CF and he had to be tested because his skin was so so salty. The doctors were worried. I didn’t even know what CF was and back then, he was born in 1979, there was no internet or cellphones of course so I had to go on a quick explanation from doctors until I got to the library. Thank God he did not have CF but I was terrified. So sorry for this long comment. God bless both of you and your amazing Ollie! 🙏❤️😀
Keep your head up and your faith strong ...I lost my deep faith with sickness ...I am crawling my way back !
Mary would probably love Simon and Martina's video of recycling in Japan. It's super interesting and Martina is a chronic illness warrior too.
Cat Caffeine ikr! They're awesome
Love Simon and Martina!!!!!
I can't watch when it's me, I pass out for some reason, but I'm fascinated and I watch when it's others that I'm with and no matter what I always badger the nurses with questions.
I am totally a watcher. I have horrible veins and often need several pokes....... I watch each and every one and get excited when I finally see blood.
When I was in the hospital, the nurse would come in to take blood, in the middle of the night. I would say "here let me turn the light on so I can see what you are doing". LOL I did that because my arms and hands were all bruised up because I don't think SHE could see what she was doing.
That's going some if the nurse couldn't see what they were doing! I hear ya when you say you got all bruised up because I personally have sucky veins too. A few years ago in either 2011 or 12 I had to go for a pulmonary endoscopy procedure where I had to be put to sleep and with absolutely No Exageration but it took the anesthesia people literally 16 times to place the IV in me and stillI no success so for the 17th and last time they finally had to bring me into the procedure room and place it into my Right Internal Jugular vein which is in my neck. They numbed it with Lidocaine first but I tell you what I cried like a blubbering baby after they injected it because it burned like nobody's business! I'm like "Can I move my head?" They said let us tape it down first unless you want us to do it again. I'm like "Nope No way in Hell are you doing that again!!" LOL
Keri Smith I got lucky yesterday. I had to have a lipoma removed and the anesthesiologists got the IV in on the first try. That’s the first time I think I’ve ever had that happen. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had an IV in my leg or neck.
Those elastomeric balls are amazing! Just finishing 60 days of IV antibiotics using those, it's so much easier than the gravity bags!
I watch everything, and I have a high pain tolerence. The Frye team rocks ! Love you all
Watcher. But that has a lot since I got my RN. Now nothing bothers me. STRONG PERFUME HAS ALWAYS BOTHERED ME !!. I always made it a point as a nurse to never wear perfume to work. I was a surgical nurse and they appreciated us not wearing perfume also
As a surging pt, it was so nice. You take care Care, Mary. And you Peter. You take care
Of taking good care of Mary. You two are wonderous couple.
I'm a watcher,needles don't bother me even though some of them hurt
Get well soon Mary xxx
When I was younger (I'm 60 now) I couldn't watch anything without passing out. I could never even watch them give me a shot. If I had a bloody skinned knee or elbow (which as a tomboy I often did) I'd pass out. Then, 13 years ago my mother had a massive stroke that totally debilitated her and I quit my job, brought her home with me, and took over as her caregiver. After being with her 24/7 watching and helping with holding her hand for blood work, helping exchange tubes of blood from tiny veins, medications, changing diapers, etc.....I now am a watcher. I never would have thought I could look at anything bloody or gross. The me I am now is NOT the same me I was years ago.
I'm a watcher, I have Remicaid infusions every 6 weeks, you get use to needles quick!
I'm a total watcher when getting a needle. I've hated them as a child. Used to take four adults to hold me down as a five year old to draw blood but still, I need to watch. Seeing it somehow gives me a bit of a feeling of control if that even makes sense.
I am most definitely a watcher. It helps me, weirdly, feel more in control of my treatments and health
Nothing weird about bringing your heating pad. I have come to accept that when someone lives with a chronic illness; you become hyper responsible about what ifs?
I want to know Mary, when you where a medical mask, how does your body react to it? I wear mine for about 1/2 hour and my mask is completely soaked. I hate them!
One week until Christmas!!!! Bring on all the Christmas stuff 🎄 currently eating red and green coated chocolates while watching this... Thanks for being such incredible people!
Hey Mary! If you're interested in recycling more, but don't have the room or energy to sort through rubbish, look into finding some sustainable re-usable products for you home so that you don't have as much waste and finding other uses for things is always exciting!! Wishing you both the merriest of Christmas's
Hey ! been following your channel for a while and really enjoy it. I think a good idea to reduce your waste would be to avoid buying plastic water bottles and buy a 5 gallon jug that you can trade instead if your tap water isn't good enough to drink. An other thing would be to avoid using paper or plastic plates when you have diner.
I am saying this since i have noticed these two elements that maybe could be dealt in a more eco friendly way.
Hope that Antibiotic goes well with you Mary.
Happy Holidays.
Watcher here...i was in the medical so nothing bothers me! Love you guys. Hope you're feeling a bit better soon Mary. Merry Christmas!!
From eastern shore of Va! Not a watcher and I’m nurse (now disabled) . Getting ready to have a knee replacement on Friday. Prayers appreciated.
I love my infusion docs and pain clinic docs. they let me live a fairly normal life. i get the crazy side effects too, the nausea medication I get when I get migraines causes panic attacks normally it makes people sleepy.
I just got home from my doctors appointment, a follow up since my surgery two weeks ago today. They took the zip line tape off and now I'm free of any bandages! Praying for you guys, love you!
I feel the same way! I have so much good I want to do, but so little energy! It makes my heart so happy to hear you putting in full effort for recycling!!! Although buying non plastic is the best, but recycling is the best way to go if you do have to buy plastics.
I am definitely a watcher. Especially when it comes to blood draws and new nurses. My veins are good and strong but they sit pretty deep. And I’ve noticed that some nurses aren’t that experienced yet in working with deep veins. So I help teach them how to look for deeper seated veins.
I am not a watcher, I physically can't watch my port because of a cervical fusion but I watch everything my nurse does in preparation to access
I love fired-up-about-the-planet-Mary! I didn't know you were so thoughtful about the waste you can control. It's awesome! (Especially, like you said, in light of the waste you can't control.) Another reason to look up to you guys!
I totally get the "ideas" thing because of my severe M.E! It makes me realise how many possibilities there are and I plan what I'd do if/when I recover and they include waste reduction measures too 😀
By the way Peter, please, PLEASE keep your eyes on the road at ALL times when driving. All it takes is a split second...
I get blood drawn weekly, sometimes biweekly, for my bleeding disorder and I have infusions often. Whenever I have blood draws or IV’s placed, I don’t watch them place the needle, but after it’s in, I watch all the action! 😊 Usually because blood goes everywhere lol
I'm a watcher , I start a new chemo tomorrow... I understand I have to have two IVS . I pray for all the chronic sick people all the time.
I can’t watch while needle is going in but once it is I can watch. Now I did get to watch a knee surgery. I was in for a miniscus (sp) tear and I asked my surgeon if I could watch. He said sure. They numbed me from waste down and since it was a scope I got to watch on the monitor. I did have loopy drugs in. The surgery did end up getting more complicated and he had to open me up. After that I could watch any more because the scope was put away. I found it fascinating. It is weird I can’t watch needles going into me but I can watch a surgery on me lol. It will be interesting if I have to go on a RA med where I have to give myself the shot. I know it will end up happening and I do not know how I will do it lol. Maybe my hubby will give it to me.
You three put a big smile on my face. Glad today went well!
I hope your feeling well. And you are in higher spirits mary and Peter. And oh bonsie we love you
Praying for you sweetheart ❤️. May the LORD bless you and keep you. May He turn His face towards you and may you be BLESSED!!!
Mary you literally have the best skin, the most flawless complexion I’ve ever seen! Is it just genetics or a good skin care regimen?
They should have a no fragrance policy
Love you Mary! Christmas is in your heart... you carry it with you. It isn't perfect....if you have to have everything perfect....you'll never have Christmas!
I typically look away when they insert a needle to draw blood, but I like watching it after that. I’ve been type 1 diabetic for 10 years though, so I’m not afraid of needles.
Strong scents bring on migraines for me some of the worst are the scent sprays in UK public bathrooms, they go off randomly and smell so strong. Do you have those in the public bathrooms in the USA?
Yep. They're a thing here too and I hate them.
I said it before, the styrofoam things you get some of your supplies in that look like a cooler, would make really good insulated homes for stray cats.
I like watching those videos of the giant crusher/shredding machines.... they throw the craziest stuff in there, fridges, couches, giant tires, etc. And it all gets crushed up!
really glad i have your videos to look forward to because i’ll be spending my christmas with IVs as wellb
I watch my port access, IVs (first 4 sticks), sometimes I watch my intrathecal pump refills. I've begged for videos of my surgeries.
For my wife, I watch IVs, port sticks (although I usually do them), pump refills, etc.
Peter- How do you handle watching other people alsoaccessing her port or even giving boluses? It drives me crazy when they break protocol or inject air. Even time I speak up,they act like I'm crazy for caring about venous air because "it's not a lethal amount".
I recycle medical trash whenever possible (mostly packaging, but nothing that touches blood). I've even recycled transfer syringes (only touched zofran bottle and brand new saline bag). Those bags saline comes in, recycled too (the smaller bags use REALLY thick plastic. The amount of medical trash was really getting to me too.
4:35 I think I don't consistently watch or not watch.
6:10 I guess it depends on how likely it is that the hospital has one.
9:26 If it doesn't matter to them, does it make a difference for you?
I’m so nosey I have to watch !
Happy Christmas week, hope the new antioxidants help quickly.
My wife's first surgery after we got married (spinal fusion), which was supposed to be 6-8 hours and took 14 hours, I asked for a copy ofthe video or a seat in the balcony (the hospital is so old that there was an OR with an old school balcony (they have since added glass for infection risk).
So, yeah I'm a watcher
I watch it always!!! I loved watching getting my PICC put in....and the skin expander!! But, I’m a nurse and I do a lot of needles, IV, blood work, help PICCS at work (on sick babies)!!!
Watcher
😂. The squeaky at the end made my dog come running to find hers.
I'm with you Mary. I have to watch or I get tense and the pain feels worse to me.
I am a watcher 100%. I just think it's fascinating and I can tell when my veins decide to blow. I can also tell them where to try for veins and how to get certain veins.
I can’t watch the initial stick but then I can watch after that. Glad you were able to go home 😊 home always is more comfortable.
You two are doing great-you are an inspiration to everyone. Sending lots of positive thoughts and prayers. I’m a recycling geek and I drive my family crazy. I make sure that if it can be recycled it does !!! ❤️💜🤗
Watcher till the moment supreme, when I quickly look away to avoid upsetting my stomach.
Mary and Peter regarding recycling. I have become a really bad keeper of recycled goods. I have a very creative mind and am a crafter. I see or feel there is more I can do with this piece of "trash " before I can let go of it. Not often enough I have had enough and toss most all of the stuff. Poor pickup people, can not let go of it if I had to sort , that would be triggering way to much. Love you guys, keep you in my prayer. 🙃🙃🙃
I love the xmas spirit! I'm glad you are keeping the magic alive!
I'm a watcher. Been doing it so long that it doesn't bother me anymore.
I'm in between a watcher and a no watcher. I have it in my peripheral vision so I know when it is going in but I'm not looking right at it. Love watching you guys.
Thank you for being so good about recycling !
Note to people: don't wear strong women perfumes or men perfumes 🤢🤢🤢
Very true....causes so many problems for lung patients and people who are allergic....it should be in public places as well as hospitals....I get called to ER for lung patients because of the over perfumed!! And...those spray deodorizers that seem to be everywhere....what happened to the Coco Chanel fragrance rule....spray lightly....walk thru....
Cat Guthrie Or as the Queer Eye guys say “Spray, Delay and Walk away”.
I agree with them, because you only have a nice scent that’s pleasant for all.
I do it like Coco Chanel. Spray nd walk through. Even in offices where there is a no fragrance rule, I've never had an issue doing it this way.
I love my perfumes and will never give them up, BUT...you have to be very close to me to notice the scent I'm wearing. Now, I love the smell of most perfumes and colognes, but many people don't and I try my best to not impose my Eternity on anyone but me.
Agreed. I don't have any issues with my lungs, but, a few weeks ago, I almost passed out in an elevator after someone sprayed a particularly pungent perfume. Please, be mindful of others if you choose to wear perfume.
Glad you had a Positive experience with the new med. I definitely do not watch when I get IVs, needles, etc. You need PSA before the doggy toy squeaks! Every time Ollie squeaks his toy my border collie goes insane barking and running around looking for it! (And I'm usually in bed watching this vlog) 😂
So I'm a total medical nerd and love all the medical shows, not really squeamish, except bodily fluids, but I can't watch when I get shots. Blood draws are okay, but it comes out slow for some reason, so I end up watching because it takes longer than they think.
I’m a watcher 100%! I can even draw my own blood no problem (I’m a phlebotomist 😂)
I'm glad you are that talented! If you ever had to draw my blood I would have to say Good Luck because you would literally be SOL with my veins! I have had certain phlebotomists miss who usually haven't had any trouble. There is one specific person who I usually request and she used to use a butterfly needle but has to use a straight edge needle now. I have so much scar tissue from being stabbed so many times that most of my veins aren't usable anymore.
I cannot watch blood draws!
Here in Brazil in some places that people works recycling they get very thankful about any kind of help like washing milk or juices box and bottles and stuff. Here usually this kind of work is very degrading. And who works with that suffers a lot and the payment is almost nothing. It is really sad. There's a lot of families here that live literally on dumping ground. The world is not fair. 😔💔
No matter how much the ccls (child life specialist) tries to distract me I always watch. I want to be a child life specialist when I grow up
I’m a watcher, even though I’m still a bit scared of needles. It’s worse not knowing what they’re doing! xxxxxxxx
My son with chronic illness watches and films every time.
I'm a watcher! I have watched them draw my blood ever since the first time when I was 6!
I'm definitely a not-watcher. I tend to hold my breath and tighten up when I get a shot or bloodwork because I know when the pinch and sting are gonna come. But, when I don't know, I'm totally fine.
I watch it! Always. I always get nervous but I have to watch.
I am a watcher since I older so hope you, Peter and Oliver enjoying Christmas at home this year
I learned that the saline flush syringes if you separate it and remove the rubber top on the plunger the rest of it can be recycled
I’m a watcher. Always. Good luck with the new treatment xx
.... could be a slogan on a new line of merchandise 🙃 ..... “ ...don’t leave home with your “joy and emergency pants....”? 🤓🙈😉💟
I have been a nurse for more than 35 years. I have started MANY IVs, drawn blood hundreds of times from arms, ports, PICC lines, you name it but, when it comes to me....I am a no watcher. Yep. Most of my monthly bloodwork is fasting. If I watch, I get lightheaded. Funny, isn't it!
Does anyone else whisper the words "such a sweetie" when the vlog ends with dear Ollie's face 😊 i catch myself every time ❤
Keep moving forward Mary and Peter u got this and btw I'm a watcher
I love to watch it
I've had 3 picc lines and many many iv's and stuff like that done. It's totally cool to watch it. To me it doesn't hurt so bad when I watch it
I'm only two minutes in the video. But it looks like the antibiotics are helping you you don't look as sick and your cheeks are as red. I hope you're feeling a little better. I'm going to watch the rest of the video LOL. Ever since I stumbled across one of the videos I can't stop watching ️ ☺️
Im a nurse so I watch for correct procedure. :) My port makes that kind of hard, but I have excellent nurses.
Totally a "WATCHER".
When I was 17, I got a crazy blood clot 4 inches away from my heart in my subclavian vein. After spending 8 days in Children's hospital, surgery to dissolve an over two inch clot, 2 balloon angioplasties to help hold open my vein, they put me on Coumadin for 6 months. It sucks, no sports and sports were my life. I remember they had to draw my blood every Mon, Wed, Fri to make sure the levels were okay. I watched it every time and towards the end, because of the scar tissue, I would literally tell them phlebotomist, "just poke right there!"
😂😂😂😂😂😂
My little girl is the same way and a total watcher and she's only 5. Haha!
Mary I And Denise Hate The Number 2 Part & Nausea ECT.Side Effects Of Antibiotics 😨Yikes!!!!!Praying For Your Side Effects Won't Be To Harsh On You Mary God Bless You Both Mary & Peter Hello Ollie Boy💜🙏💜🙏🌹🌹
I am NOT a watcher. 🙅🏼♀️ I made the mistake of watching someone put in my IV and I passed out. 😂
That sucks that someone had perfume on. I’m surprised it’s not scent free. I’ve had some pretty bad allergic/asthma/migraine reactions to various perfumes. Usually the expensive ones, oddly. Lol
