    Wow, I was going to ask John about the best wifi aerial, but I've been completely distracted by Mandy. One of the strangest things about UA-cam is that we know everything about you, but we've never met, but we still feel for you when you're sick. Massive love to you both and I hope everything goes well ❤

    I remember this routine. I used to drop my husband off at the hospital in the morning for his chemo, go to work & then pick him back up & tuck him into bed at home. He’s 17 years clear now. Thinking of you both & sending our love ❤️

    My neighbour, who's undergoing chemo, swears by Liquid IV, a hydration powder that you add to water. It has good flavours and gives you a better boost than plain water.
    You only take one per day, so that helps out with the cost.
    I am subscribed to Mandy's channel, and didn't know you had one, also.
    Cheers,
    Jon in rural BC, Canada

    Thankyou for a lovely video John and Mandy. It’s been so nice to see you together like that. It’s so very hard for you both.
    It was an emotional ending, really got to me. I hope you’re feeling okay Mandy and find the rest of your treatment easier to cope with.
    It’s like any operation or treatment, you go into hospital okay, then it’s really painful before recovery happens.
    Love and prayers to you both xxx

    Thank you for a lovely update on the situation. Like many others, you are both in my mind, and although there is little practical help I can offer at this time, I hope that some moral support goes someway to boost your spirits. At least the process is underway now, and things must run their course. There will be plenty of summer left to enjoy once the course is completed, so there's much to look forward to. Take care now, both of you, and we'll see where we are in July. 👋🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦

    Thank goodness you have each other. Thank you for posting and for your openness. Praying for strength for you, Mandy - for one day at a time, and for a corner to be turned as the days go by. And for you, John, as I too have been 'taxi', moral-support-while-feeling-helpless, etc. It's hard for you both to go from 'fit' and feeling well to being flattened - or observing it. God bless, love and virtual hugs. Laura

    Of all the symptoms your body is giving you right now, know that your body is still working as it should to keep you as well as it can. Your body is fighting a lot right now, so if you need to take frequent naps or whatever, do so. Trust what your body is telling you, nothing else matters right now but you.
    John take care of yourself too, Mandy needs you more than ever, but you can't be there for her if you're not taking care of yourself too. It's hard seeing the woman you love going through so much, and there being nothing you feel you can do. You're doing everything right ok xx
    This is one chapter, it is not the whole story. Keep turning the pages just one by one and the end will come before you know it. You've got this Mandy. Offering a big hug full of love and strength. xx

    So sorry for what you’re having to go through. There’s no ‘just’ about quite how emotionally and physically draining going in and out of hospital is or how tough not being in control of your lives in any way right now. I hope you can find respite moments together appreciating the beauty of the spring leaves on the trees or in the joy of hearing about something funny your grandson says or does. Praying your body starts to cope differently with all the challenges you’re under and somehow you start to feel better Mandy. I’m sure you’ll have thought of it but Something we tried to help get from one week to the next was If you can both muster the energy to give yourselves little ‘rewards’ to look forward to at the end of the week (a film, a massage, a treat food, a walk/drive in a beautiful place, working on planning a travel for after this tough time or ‘even just’ a cuddle time and a daytime doze….) planning those might help with facing the arduousness of the weeks ahead. Things might have to change but it’s there as a goal to get to each week it’s gotten us through challenging times. Would the hospital put a PICC line in maybe to make taking bloods less difficult I wonder? Sending healing thoughts and Thinking of you both. X

    Sorry Mandy you aren’t doing well with treatment and feeling like poo!! Fingers crossed your body behaves better soon and you start to feel better.
    John you are doing a WONDERFUL job looking after her. I feel sorry for those who haven’t got a ‘John’ by their side.
    Don’t worry about not being positive on your channel. It’s real life this at its most brutal and I’m sure people who are going through this will really appreciate it.
    See you in July and I send my best wishes to you both ❤❤❤❤❤
