Calvin and Marie, we are so happy that both of you are feeling better. Marie, you should never have to apologize for being "not as peppy". We all understand. One of the reasons i love your channel is that you and Calvin don't put on an act. We love y'all just being yourselves. Take care and prayers for continued healing for you both.
Wow Calvin...You're looking very well for just having surgery...You're home and it is the best place to recover...God Bless you and Marie🙏🙏🙏Take your time recovering Calvin😊
Marie, remember you are a beautiful Christian woman…smiling or not 😂. Also, the devotional was so, so true ! I enjoyed it so much. Calvin, you will remain in our prayers for complete healing🙏 You are both precious !
Calvin and Marie, I am so happy to see you. I have been thanking God how he worked things out for the surgeon who did the surgery. And for how well Calvin is doing. Y'all take it easy and get well. ❤
Your devotional was right on cue. As senior citizens, health and anxiety work hand in hand. I have always had anxiety attacks, especially when it came to my family’s health. My old house is also a cause for anxiety, as something is always in need of repair. Mu husband was my rock. He always calmed me down. I am glad that Calvin did so well. I am sure that his happy active life was a part of that. I don’t need a reply, just rest and get better. Love and blessings to you both.
You look well Calvin, tired and moving slow but great!! I'm so glad your home as I know Marie is too! Don't worry about the channel, take it easy, rest and fully recover. Those of us who love you both will understand!! Much love!!
The devotion was perfect. Thank you for your heart felt words. Oh my, Calvin I am so sorry to hear about your surgery. Praying for your recovery. My husband had that surgery when he was near 60. He was so inflamed that he had to be in the hospital for 5 days.i am so thankful you are home. Praying for Marie as she cares for you as she recovers from her illness. Love you both.
Your color is really good Calvin. Glad you are feeling better. No need to answer our comments.. Just take it easy and heal. You are right about never knowing what tomorrow will bring. I thank God for letting me have another day every day.
To me you both are Always Very Pleasant and Kind to each other as well as us viewers ❤ Praying for speedy recovery God Bless you both and your Family Joann in Virginia
Good morning Marie and Calvin, My chat before church and and we will be praying for you Calvin. You and Marie has been through alot likely so i have kept you in my prayers. So I hope you feel better soon and Marie will get better as well from her bronchitis . So try and have a rested Sunday and this coming week. Take care
I was so happy to see you two on Sunday chat. You both have been in my prayers. So proud your surgery went so well Calvin. Rest, it’s the best medicine. See you on the next video ❤
So Happy you're surgery went well. Continuing healing prayers for you're recovery, Calvin. It's really sweet of you both to send out a video while still recovering. God bless you both.
Hello from KY love you and your channel and your family ❤️ Marie so glad you are getting better.Calvin bless your heart,even though it was laparoscopic it still makes you sore.Get well quick.Much love to you both,Marie I love your devotionals you are an inspiration to us all.❤❤❤❤
Good morning Calvin and Marie, I am glad everything went well with the surgery . Make sure you get rest ......praying for the both of you ❤sending sunshine 🌞 your way
I’m sorry to hear about your having to have GB surgery, but happy it went so smoothly. Praying for your quick recovery and as always you’re both in my prayers 🙏🥰🙌🏻
Laparoscopy is definitely a better way to go, you’ll definitely heal much quicker. They diagnosed my husband’s gallstones with an ultrasound. Marie, it’s easy to get in a ball of nerves because we are human. One thing that helps me is to be in the moment and to not let my mind race ahead with, “what if”.
Great devotion and great summary of the word Marie!Thank the Lord for bringing you through the surgery Calvin. I pray for a full recovery for you and Marie in Jesus precious name!🙏🏽Stay strong and be encouraged! 🕊️The Lord will never leave or forsake you.
So glad to see that you are home and doing well!! Thank you Jesus! You take good care of yourself and I pray you have a quick recovery. We missed you by the way!! Prayers for Marie also...Im sure she has been a bit unnerved over all of this. God had you in His hands.
Calvin and Marie, thank you so much for this Chat and giving us this update. You are so right about always being grateful for another day and for what you have in your life. Don't worry about replying back to my comment. What is important is resting and getting better. I know when I had laparoscopic surgery, I tried not to bend over too much or lift things, so take it easy, Calvin. And Marie, keep up on your health as well. God IS great, and we all need to keep in mind his Word and that He is in control when going through our lives. Take care.
So glad you are doing well Calvin after your surgery . Laparoscopic surgery is very minimally evasion which speeds up the heeling process. I will keep both you and Marie in my prayers. Love your videos. Have a restful week. 😊💗
Marie I just wanted to say thank you for your devotionals. They and your perspective mean a lot to me! You just be yourself, one among many things I love about both of you is you are who you are. Happy, sad, sick, mad whatever the mood, situation is who you are, never apologize for that!! The only one who has any right to judge us is the one above! You are too loving, kind and sweet to be made to feel guilty....sorry I just think it's a shame. Much love!!
I had that surgery in 1992 ...you do recover quicker but it still feels like someone reach in and ripped your gallbladder out it doesn't last long. Prayers
Good morning to you both. So happy you’re doing well, Calvin. You look great and I know you feel better. I had my gallbladder removed 35 years ago. It sure is advanced these days. I have a 6 inch scar. Marie, never apologize for not being “peppy”. We love you just the way you are. We all have ups and downs in our lives. Have a blessed week and rest up Calvin! 💕
so glad you did well calvin bless your heart. you never know what is going to happen from day to day,my husband has been sick for a week now, but today he is doing better, our prayers happy cooking this week!
So glad you are on the mend! I have to say both of you look great in this video. I had my gallbladder out years ago and I was so glad it was gone. I thought I was having a heart attack with one episode and another one felt like the flu, all due to a gall bladder full of stones. I hope you both have a blessed week and continue to feel better every day. Kristi & Charlie
Thanks very much Kristi and Charlie. It's only been a couple of days and I can already tell that I can eat without hurting every time. It's been going on for at least 12 months and I was associating the pain with being a problem from my other surgery. I'm glad that I had it removed already.
@@SouthernCountryLiving I’m glad it’s helped with that!! I was miserable with mine until they figured out what was wrong. I was sore like you for a few days but then it was so much better!! Take it easy for the next few days and we will see you on the next video!! Prayers, love and hugs to you both!!
Marie, today’s devotions are timely! It is hard to stay peaceful and bubbly when health and family issues are piling on. I’m just out of the hospital, too. We are happy to see you both, perky or not! 💕🙏🏻
So glad you’re feeling better Calvin! I had my gallbladder removed at 42 years old and the doctor said I had enough stones to make a necklace! Sending prayers 🙏 for the both of you for healing ❤️🩹 and good health, Brenda in S.C
we are so blessed and are very thankful to spend a moment with you both. ❤🩹 I pray for a healthy and speedy recovery. i wish you both a very blessed week 💜
Good morning Calvin and Marie. So so good to see you both this. Please Calvin take care of yourself. I had that surgery 3 years ago& still have to watch my diet. Marie you look wonderful this morning. Don't rush into the videos , we will be here when you are ready. Thanks. Sending 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 🙏🙏.
Thank you Calvin for sharing your story, my wife and I are very thankful for your Drs and how ell you are healing up. My Dad had elective Gall Bladder Surgery when he was in his eighty’s but unfortunately he never returned to his home. I always felt something went wrong with his Anesthesia as he just slept after his surgery when he was supposed to return home that afternoon. When I returned in the morning he was sitting up in bed, had eaten his breakfast, was bright eyed and immediately asked me to go buy a newspaper that he enjoyed. Shortly after I returned a nurse started checking his oxygen level and had him do breathing exercises. Something was now wrong and he was taken to the ICU…eventually passing away. So sudden as he was active for his age, mentally as sharp as ever but we will never know what happened. Again, we are thankful for your successful surgery, you and Marie take care of each other🙏
God bless each of you. I pray you both heal quickly & feel better. Thankful your surgery went well. I just found your page the other day & glad that I did since both my husband & I are retired. Marie, please do not try to pretend to be upbeat. Be yourself & do what you love.
Yes,,we use to make poodle dog,,fold a clothes hanger,,then wrap tarn around fingers,tie it in the middle,then keep tieing these to the wire hander till full ,tie ribbons on neck and ears..
Thanks for sharing, I love all your flowers , It is all so pretty. Enjoy the devotional this week and every week as well. The puppy was sooo cute. Addison will love that. Calvin I am glad you are back at home and I know Marie is to. Glad you are feeling better. I hope you two have a wonderful week .
Glad you are on the mend, Calvin❤. Sounds like your doctors are top notch too! You two are in my thoughts and prayers. I look forward to seeing you guys back in the kitchen ❤️
I'm so glad you're doing well, Calvin! When Marie was talking about it being lonely there without you, I teared up. The two of you are just precious and such a beautiful example of marriage. Marie, I understand so well what you speak about in your devotional. Sometimes with family issues it gets so hard to be strong and positive. You're beautiful upbeat and happy and just as beautiful if you're sad, and you and Calvin and your life are such an inspiration to me. I pray you both have a good, healthy, relaxing week ❤️🙏
👋 kids, Oh my goodness, emergency anything is tough on us. I'm just so glad you're both doing well with this. Marie, your voice is strong today, 👏 I'm sure you'll have loads of help from family and friends plus all our good karma here. Know that we're right there. Please take the time you need. 🤗 🤗 Noise required.
Calvin I'm so glad you are ok. May God protect you always. Gee, sorry to hear you had to go through this, but thankful you are ok. May God protect you and bless you always.
Calvin, I had the same thing happen to me 5 years ago. Made 2 trips to the ER before they found that it was my gall bladder. I came home with 4 little bandaides on my belly. Laparascopic surgery is so much better for the patient. Yes, some soreness for a day or two. Be careful bending over a lot.....and although you feel good, just be careful for a while. You are still healing internally. It really makes you appreciate good health when you go through things like that. We will continue praying for you both! 🙏
Calvin, I’m so grateful all went well. You’re so kind to encourage others who might face this surgery. Marie, you look especially beautiful today ❤️. Calvin you look amazing and healthy. I know what y’all mean about getting older and doing things to suit your age and lifestyle. I love y’all and your family. ❤️❤️❤️
Calvin, wishing you a speedy recovery. Several years ago I went in for what was supposed to be day surgery & was supposed to be laparoscopic surgery for gall bladder. I was only granted 1 day off from work. Things didn’t work out that way. I ended up surgery with huge scar, & 2 blood transfusions & 2 nights in hospital. Recovery was hard also. Marie you are looking so pretty today, I guess you are doing something different with your makeup. You just have a glow.
Calvin so glad you're doing OK. Try to get plenty of rest. Marie you looked especially beautiful and probably am so glad Calvin is back home with you. Hugs to you both and praying for you both.
God bless you both and your family. I'm so glad that you are on the mend Calvin. God is so good and never leaves us even in the most troubling times. I understand Marie, no need to worry about being bubbly. We are all human and go through many struggles. We wear our anxiety on our face sometimes and that is ok. We love you both and I will be praying for your family. That yarn puppy is so cute.
God bless your sweet little hearts. I'm so glad to hear that y'all are both feeling better. Calvin you are a tough man! And your love for Marie shows through these videos. Love to you both! ❤
Calvin I Al so happy you are home and feeling better! Marie, you are beautiful ❤ your skin is so beautiful!! You are glowing! Definitely happy for you both ❤
Good morning Calvin and Marie. Prayers that you have a speedy recovery 🙏. So Thankful that you're home and feeling better. Prayers that you, Marie also get better soon 🙏. Love you both❤. Have a Blessed Day 😊
Calvin I am happy your surgery was successful. You will be feeling better in no time. My husband had a similar experience. He knew he had gallstones but each attack would pass. His last attack didn’t quit so he got worked in to see his primary care doctor. He sent him straight to the ER and called ahead to let them know he was coming. After the surgery the surgeon told him his gallbladder was gangrene and spreading to his pancreas. If he had not had the surgery he would have died. So thankful for knowledgeable surgeons. I truly enjoy watching you and Marie’s videos and look forward to each one.
Thanks very much for sharing your husband's experience. I'm glad that my surgery is over. I feel better already. I'm glad that your husband is doing good now.
I am so glad you did very well after your gallbladder surgery. God Bless you. You are a very strong person in Jesus name. Have a wonderful week with your Marie. Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest and water ! Blessings to all out there in virtual land….🙏🎚️❤️
So sorry you've been ill. My brother recently went through this and it was easy and he is fine. Please pray for us our mom died a week ago. She and I were very close, I was her caregiver as well. I am probably going to lose my home, I am praying I don't. Thank you and God Bless you.
@@SouthernCountryLiving Thank you so much I miss her terribly. I still need prayers about the house, please. God Bless you both & family with good health and in all things.💖
So glad you are home and that you are doing well. I had one gall bladder attack, which hit me at like 2 or 3 in the morning. The pain was so bad I asked God to just take me. Thankfully He blessed me to have an excellent surgeon who did that endoscopy surgery to me. It is SO much easier for them to do that from how they used to do it, and much faster recovery time. Be kind to yourself in allowing yourself to heal. I love your videos, but if you just want to do Sunday Chats for awhile, that is 100% okay. We can wait until your better to have you do all your regular weekly videos. ❤️🙏🏻
So glad your all fixed up Calvin.I know what you mean about age. Not everyone has the same stamina. I had my gallbladder and a hernia repair done several years ago. The gallbladder pain was nothing but the hernia repair took a while to get rid of that pain. Take your time posting we all understand. You’re both so very special. God Bless you.
So glad Calvin your surgery went well. I had my gallbladder removed back in 2004 and I tell you what the pain I suffered with my bad gallbladder was horrible. I think childbirth was easier. Lol. Sending prayers for a speedy recovery and prayers for Marie to feel better too. I don't mind a simple heart for my comment. I can't imagine someone actually answering everyone 's comments. We all just love you two so much and want you both to feel better. ❤❤❤
Hoping you both feel better soon. We are so lucky to live in a world where science has created better ways to treat people quickly and less invasively. And of course , all the brilliant doctors that have that natural intelligence to look after people. Science always astounds me. Have a wonderful evening y’all.
Calvin, I am glad you are doing well. I had the gall bladder laparoscopic surgery. Mine went well too. The hardest part was not being able to pick up our 1 year old granddaughter. She didn't understand. She had to sit by me on our couch. ♥️. Marie you are such a sweet wife. Was so nice y'all could face time. Marie you always look pleasant. Praying for both of you! 🙏♥️🙏
Calvin. You are looking like a young 25 year old recovering quickly. Rest well my friend. God bless you and Marie 🙏🏻🙏🏻✝️✝️
Thanks so much Roger
Calvin and Marie, we are so happy that both of you are feeling better. Marie, you should never have to apologize for being "not as peppy". We all understand.

Thanks very much

I'm so glad you're doing well, Calvin! When Marie was talking about it being lonely there without you, I teared up. The two of you are just precious and such a beautiful example of marriage. Marie, I understand so well what you speak about in your devotional. Sometimes with family issues it gets so hard to be strong and positive. You're beautiful upbeat and happy and just as beautiful if you're sad, and you and Calvin and your life are such an inspiration to me. I pray you both have a good, healthy, relaxing week ❤️🙏
Thanks very much Olivia. I'm already feeling better today.
@@SouthernCountryLiving I'm so glad. Don't rush healing; just take things a day at a time so you'll be back to normal soon ❤️🙏
So glad that you are doing well! Take care of your self,praying for you

I am so happy that your surgery went well , just make sure that you take it easy. Sending special prayers 🙏. Love from Canada.🇨🇦😀🙏❤️
Thanks very much
Calvin I'm so glad you are ok. May God protect you always. Gee, sorry to hear you had to go through this, but thankful you are ok. May God protect you and bless you always.
Thanks so much
Calvin, I had the same thing happen to me 5 years ago. Made 2 trips to the ER before they found that it was my gall bladder. I came home with 4 little bandaides on my belly. Laparascopic surgery is so much better for the patient. Yes, some soreness for a day or two. Be careful bending over a lot.....and although you feel good, just be careful for a while. You are still healing internally. It really makes you appreciate good health when you go through things like that. We will continue praying for you both! 🙏
Yes, you are right about that. Thanks very much
Y’all take care and get all the rest you need! We’ll be praying for you both 😊
Thanks very much, we appreciate your prayers
I am glad you are home and things are going well. I am not doing well myself, remember me in your prayers. Love you, Chestene
Thanks very much Chestene, we are praying for you.
Calvin, I’m so grateful all went well. You’re so kind to encourage others who might face this surgery. Marie, you look especially beautiful today ❤️. Calvin you look amazing and healthy. I know what y’all mean about getting older and doing things to suit your age and lifestyle. I love y’all and your family. ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks very much Valerie
Calvin, wishing you a speedy recovery. Several years ago I went in for what was supposed to be day surgery & was supposed to be laparoscopic surgery for gall bladder. I was only granted 1 day off from work. Things didn’t work out that way. I ended up surgery with huge scar, & 2 blood transfusions & 2 nights in hospital. Recovery was hard also. Marie you are looking so pretty today, I guess you are doing something different with your makeup. You just have a glow.
Thanks very much Shelby.
Calvin so glad you're doing OK. Try to get plenty of rest. Marie you looked especially beautiful and probably am so glad Calvin is back home with you. Hugs to you both and praying for you both.
Thanks so much Sue
🙏 hoping for a speedy recovery ❤
Thanks very much Carolyn
God bless you both and your family. I'm so glad that you are on the mend Calvin. God is so good and never leaves us even in the most troubling times. I understand Marie, no need to worry about being bubbly. We are all human and go through many struggles. We wear our anxiety on our face sometimes and that is ok. We love you both and I will be praying for your family. That yarn puppy is so cute.
Thanks very much
God bless your sweet little hearts. I'm so glad to hear that y'all are both feeling better. Calvin you are a tough man! And your love for Marie shows through these videos. Love to you both! ❤
Thanks so much.
Prayers for a speedy recovery ❤❤

Thanks so much Sheryl
Glad you are at home and the surgery went well. Take your time off and get some rest and recover from the surgery.
Thanks very much Diane
Calvin I am happy your surgery was successful. You will be feeling better in no time. My husband had a similar experience. He knew he had gallstones but each attack would pass. His last attack didn’t quit so he got worked in to see his primary care doctor. He sent him straight to the ER and called ahead to let them know he was coming. After the surgery the surgeon told him his gallbladder was gangrene and spreading to his pancreas. If he had not had the surgery he would have died. So thankful for knowledgeable surgeons. I truly enjoy watching you and Marie’s videos and look forward to each one.
Thanks very much for sharing your husband's experience. I'm glad that my surgery is over. I feel better already. I'm glad that your husband is doing good now.
Rest well and feel better soon. Praying for a speedy recovery. Bless you both
Thanks very much
Glad all went well, thank God. With God on your side, you'll be up and around.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 TFS and yes get some good rest. Marie, you do look so pretty. 🌹
Thanks so much Delores
I am so glad you did very well after your gallbladder surgery. God Bless you. You are a very strong person in Jesus name. Have a wonderful week with your Marie. Take care of yourself and get plenty of rest and water ! Blessings to all out there in virtual land….🙏🎚️❤️
Thanks very much
So sorry you've been ill. My brother recently went through this and it was easy and he is fine.
Please pray for us our mom died a week ago. She and I were very close, I was her caregiver as well. I am probably going to lose my home, I am praying I don't. Thank you and God Bless you.
We are so sorry for the loss of your mother. We will be praying for you that the situation will work out that you will be able to keep your home.
@@SouthernCountryLiving Thank you so much I miss her terribly. I still need prayers about the house, please. God Bless you both & family with good health and in all things.💖
@@vivienleigh2121 we will continue to pray for you about your house situation.
So glad you are home and that you are doing well. I had one gall bladder attack, which hit me at like 2 or 3 in the morning. The pain was so bad I asked God to just take me. Thankfully He blessed me to have an excellent surgeon who did that endoscopy surgery to me. It is SO much easier for them to do that from how they used to do it, and much faster recovery time. Be kind to yourself in allowing yourself to heal. I love your videos, but if you just want to do Sunday Chats for awhile, that is 100% okay. We can wait until your better to have you do all your regular weekly videos. ❤️🙏🏻
Thanks very much Michelle
So glad your all fixed up Calvin.I know what you mean about age. Not everyone has the same stamina. I had my gallbladder and a hernia repair done several years ago. The gallbladder pain was nothing but the hernia repair took a while to get rid of that pain. Take your time posting we all understand. You’re both so very special. God Bless you.
Thanks very much Sue
So glad Calvin your surgery went well. I had my gallbladder removed back in 2004 and I tell you what the pain I suffered with my bad gallbladder was horrible. I think childbirth was easier. Lol. Sending prayers for a speedy recovery and prayers for Marie to feel better too. I don't mind a simple heart for my comment. I can't imagine someone actually answering everyone 's comments. We all just love you two so much and want you both to feel better. ❤❤❤
Thanks very much, we appreciate your wonderful comment. We love reading through the comments and replying. I woke up today feeling very good. .
Thanks for sharing this message. It made me remember to trust in the Lord ❤. God bless you both. Watching all the way from Puerto Rico ❤🏝
Wonderful! Thanks very much
So glad your surgery went well. Praying for both of you. ❤❤
Thanks very much
Hoping you both feel better soon.
We are so lucky to live in a world where science has created better ways to treat people quickly and less invasively.
And of course , all the brilliant doctors that have that natural intelligence to look after people. Science always astounds me.
Have a wonderful evening y’all.
I agree with you 100 %
Calvin, I am glad you are doing well. I had the gall bladder laparoscopic surgery. Mine went well too. The hardest part was not being able to pick up our 1 year old granddaughter. She didn't understand. She had to sit by me on our couch. ♥️. Marie you are such a sweet wife. Was so nice y'all could face time. Marie you always look pleasant. Praying for both of you! 🙏♥️🙏
Thanks very much Sheryl. I can imagine how hard that was for you.
Speedy recovery, Calvin. ❤️🙏🏻
Thanks very much
