    I am 21 years old and had recurrent Cdiff 15 with many complications. I 100% understand how mentally taxing it is being in the hospital that much. Glad he is doing better and prayers for him. He’s got this. Far stronger than I could ever be

    I have been wondering how Gage was doing. I’m so glad he is home. As someone with medical issues, it breaks my heart to see someone so young go through this. I have been and will continue to send prayers. God is great!
    Ps… having watched your videos with my dad, we knew exactly what to do when I was bleeding out last June. You saved my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please know you and your family make such an impact.

    Hi from PA - Been wondering how Gage was coping. He's quite the man for getting through all of this. You are a tremendous family, strong in your faith and high on discernment. Always remember that you have a boatload of "Country Cousins" out here, pulling for all and praying hard.

    You’ve got this Gage. Glad the remicade is working I started it on it then had a major reaction to it also was on humira till it stopped giving me the results they wanted I’m now on Stelara. I will be praying for Gage. I’ve had Crohn’s for 30+ yrs with numerous surgeries the last major one was in 2005 when they did the J pouch. I’ll have my family and church pray. I’ve dealt with this since I was 11 so fully understand what you are going through meds never really work for me fully I get some relief from them but never full remission.

    Years ago and in another state from where you guys live our son spent his 2nd birthday in the ICU and the nurses decorated the outside of his room. The front of his room was all glass with curtains for privacy. When we opened the curtains in the morning he saw it. I pray your son recovers quickly now. Pediatric nurses are the best.

    Best wishes for the future to all of you, I've had those drains in when I was a kid after a surgery went wrong they are not fun. Sounds like you got a very very tough young man made by some very tough parents at that. It looks like the situation is improving rapidly and you're all on the down hill slope. I am very glad to hear it, I came here just to check out how to stage a cat 7 tourniquet and ended up watching these. I'm just in my mid 20's I don't have a kid so I can't understand a parent's perspective but I know I could barely handle 22 minutes without skipping back and forth let alone the months yall have been just at this especially having to make all these decisions the stress had to be crippling. Be sure and look after yourselves as well all of you been through more than some could imagine. Once again best wishes to you and your family and thank you so much for the educational content and the kits you provide. I'll be recommending your kits to my riding group hopefully some donations as well yall definitely could use it.

    Skinny and Mrs. Skinny you guys are rocks. With everything that you and Gage have been through and then doing a video to tell everyone how everything is going and not fall apart I applaud you. I'm glad to hear that Gage is doing better and that he is home and in his own bed. As a sub I don't mind not seeing videos when you have a family member (especially a child family member) having a medical issue. You need to focus on the on Gage. I will keep your family in my prayers and thoughts.

    So glad you are are all able to be home. I understand Gage has a tremendous amount of healing ahead but i feel that your whole family has a heavy heavy load placed upon it. If possible, do a date night every so often and spend some one on one time with your daughter. When all the focus is on the welfare of one child (as it absolutely had to be) the imbalance is felt by others. I have you all covered with prayers. Blessings.

    Sorry I'm not great at sending hopeful/helpful messages but I felt compelled to say something. I sort of just randomly stumbled across your channel and watched all the updates from around this time so I don't know the whole story, but I'm so sorry all of you had to go through this. I'm in awe of how well Gage appeared to be handling all of this in the little bit he appeared in videos. What a strong kid! He was blessed with some of the best parents possible for going through this though. I don't know how things are going now but I hope you are doing well. I'll pray for you guys.
    Did you say his colon ripped while they were removing it? That alone really brings some context to how awful he must have felt. What a crappy disease (yes, pun intended 👍).

  • @AO-mh9xu

    Hi guys,
    Hope Gage is doing ok. So sorry he had to go all of this.
    I got diagnosed with UC at the age of 16. Ten years later and continues inflammation that was only treatable with prednisolon, I made the conscious decision to have my whole large bowl and rectum removed, bottom stitched up.
    I decided against a J-pouch and wanted a permanent ileostomy. I was done with the toilet.
    I'm so happy with my decision. I wish I had done it earlier.
    A few years later I was able to get pregnant and delivery naturally.
    No medication necessary since surgery.
    I hope Gage learned to deal with his bag and he can enjoy life now. People often say "but you're too young for an ostomy!" I always reply "that's true, but I'm also too young for incontinence and nappies"
    Make sure you order samples from all the companies, so Gage can figure out what works best for him. Don't waste too much time trying to make one companies bag or barrier ring work. Trail the next one. Something will work 😊
    I can highly recommend the Coloplast sensura system. Their closure is very easy to clean. Easier than all those flimsy plastic ones.
    Best wishes from Australia ❤
