- Hey everyone. long time no see ❤. I know ive been gone for a while, and as you can see by the title ive been dealing with some pretty big things. I just want to apologize again to those people i didnt tell sooner, I really wasn't trying to leave anyone out. I just needed time to cope with this myself and work up the courage to tell everyone. I'm not sure what the future holds for my channel. I haven't thought that far ahead lol. But I really missed RUclips and the friends I have made on here. So for now, I'll be taking it slowly and just dipping my feet back into the world of videos.
If anyone is struggling with anything similar (or heck, struggling with anything in general) please feel free to talk to me. My doors always open. You can contact me in the comments or if you would like to talk privately you can find me on Insta at: / valmascarenas
I hope you all are safe and healthy. Thank you for taking the time to check out this (very AWKWARD lol) video. I'll be seeing you all soon. Love, Val
Hey Val. Thanks so much for sharing. Good to hear from you!
hey Josh! thanks for swinging by and checking out the video. its a little far from reselling content lol. its good to hear from you too, ive been catching up on your new videos! its really good to see you on youtube again!
Val it’s good to see you back and RUclips. You are amazing and me and Linda can’t wait to see you and Chad at training events once covid dies down.
hey Oz! its good to be back! we're excited for the next training event too! its such a bummer super saturday got canceled 😕. but we're looking forward to next years training and meeting new baby Oz 🤗. oh and great job on your tv interview! i hope everything works out in yours and lindas favor 💗
I always remembered you as positive force. Full of smiles and good energy! I watched this whole video and definitely teared up a few times. I can’t tell you how strong and courageous you are! This is not easy, I hope that In doing this video it has helped you mentally and emotionally! I am so glad to see you back, I know there will be days along your journey that will be tough. It is great to hear you have such an amazing support system around you. I’m sure you will see after a few days of this video that there are tons of people who you don’t get to see or talk to everyday that are here for you! Keep pushing and living life, you’re special and I have a feeling you beat this for a reason! Love and good vibes from all of us here at Over The Years and thank you for sharing your story!
hey Tim! thank you that means a lot to me. i try so hard to keep it positive, especially when it comes to my channel... the world can be so dark sometimes, and i know my channel is small but i hope that my tiny light can help others in one way or another. yea, i sat here for a good 15 minutes before uploading before i got the nerve to make it public. i can already feel less weight on my shoulders. i hated having this big "secret", but now its one less worry on my mind. i am unbelievably blessed to have such a great support system. my sister has been my rock through this all, pushing me to keep going, and so so understanding on the days that i break. reading through the comments on this video makes my heart sad that there are so many people who have had to deal with cancer in their lives, but at the same time its comforting to know that people can relate to how im feeling, even when i cant verbalize it fully. oy, the part of your comment about beating this for a reason got me right in the ticker. ive had many a chats with God about how there has to be a reason for all this, and that it cant all be for nothing. i do think there is a reason for it all. im hopeful that one day it'll all be clear and make sense. until then ill just keep on pushin through and trying to do my best. much love to you and all your family! 💗
Welcome back! Thank you for sharing with us your reasons for leaving RUclips. You are so strong in your choices, and you know what is best for your body and head space. I hope you find healing within every aspect of your life. You are a strong force that has many years ahead of you and I am glad to see you come back to reseller space of youtube. Stay strong! ❤💓
hey Traci 😊💗. thank you. its been a tough start to the year but im looking forward to how far ill go. im happy to be back to the reseller youtube world!! i missed everyone. stay safe and healthy traci 💗💗💗
Wow! I was talking to a friend last week & mentioned a few names I'd not seen around youtube for a while, including yours! I'm so sorry you've been through this, my mom passed far too young 6yrs ago from this, you've been so brave to do this video & deserve a medal 🏅 Great to see your smiley face again! Wishing you & Chad a long & happy life together! Stay strong & Take care 😊
hey bumcrack picker!! i think its been about 8 months since ive posted, but it feels like its been sooo much longer. im really sorry to hear that, and im sorry your mom had to go through this. and i know you and your family must have gone through so much dealing with her cancer. thank you, it only took me 6 months to summon the courage to post this video lol. but really i am happy that its out there and i dont have this huge secret hanging over me. i am looking forward to the future and growing with chad through all of this. you take care too! 💗
So great to see you making a video. It takes guts for you being so vulnerable and sharing your personal journey. I've had you in my thoughts and prayers for a long time and if there is anything I can help you with just let me know. Love seeing the workout posts btw.
thank you sir. hardest video ive had to make, but im glad i did it. i missed youtube. thank you for the prayers, ill take all of the prayers i can get. lol thanks, me and smelly melly have been kicking butt every day **flexes muscles**
@@Valamilk Keep flexing.
I’ve been missing you and Chad doing livestreams! I feel terrible for what you’re going through! But you’re a strong girl! You got this! 💪
hey PJ!! i miss doing the streams with chad. ill have to talk mr practical mechanic into doing one! thank you, despite everything thats happened i feel strong, and i look forward to becoming stronger physically and emotionally 💗. Stay safe and healthy!
OMG VALERIE. I was wondering what had happened to you but didn't expect hearing this news. It is always so good to see your beautiful smiling face. Believe me I will always have Prayers up for you. It is a major shock but we can deal with it. If you ever need a shoulder to lean on to vent out, I am an awesome listener. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible day. Much love and PRAYERS 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
hey TIM....lolol actually lolol. a few times since ive been gone you and a few other people who regularly watch my videos popped into my head and i thought to myself "i bet they're wondering where i disappeared to" 😄😄. thank you for the prayers, ill take all that i can get! thank you i appreciate that. ive missed my youtube friends. i hope you have a great day too!! 💗
Thank you so much for having the courage to share...you are amazing! I'm very sorry you've had to go through this but it sounds like you're doing everything needed to recover and keep moving forward. Remember to love and be kind to yourself, you deserve it.
thank you, this for sure was one of the hardest parts so far with cancer. its a scary thing telling people you have cancer. but kind words like yours make me feel like i made the right decision in sharing. 💗💗💗
Wow! Glad you are back. Sorry your year has been so turbulent. Prayers you find your new normal with happiness and health! Look forward to more of your smiling face
hey Bambi! i like that "finding a new normal" thats a great way to look at it 💗💗. thank you for the prayers
Val, thank you so much for sharing with us. I lost my mom to cancer. I hate hearing the word cancer. I'm so sorry you had to deal with all that. Thank God It all went well with surgery. Definitely will continue to pray for you. Looking forward to seeing you're upcoming content. 🤗
hey gUry 😄 long time no see. well...long time no talk, ive been lurking on your live streams from time to time lol. probably the most awkward thing ive had to do, but im glad i shared and that its out there. no more fearing people finding out. im sorry your mom had cancer and that she had to go through all of it. im sorry you and your family had to go through it. it feels so unfair. im very blessed that everything went smoothly and the healing process was easy. working on the mental stuff, but i know with time it'll get easier. thank you for the prayers, they are all very appreciated. looking forward to making content. 😊
Thank you so much for sharing Val. I appreciate you for sharing this , it has helped me to realize I also need to self check and be more in touch with my health. Thank you for that and I’m so happy to see you and grateful to you for sharing, I have missed seeing you. Prayers for your healing, physically and mental health as well. 💕🌸🌼🌻
hey Val! yes!...it never hurts to check, and to check regularly! ive missed everyone while ive been on my "break". lol i need to get back into the live auction action!! thank you for the prayers ill take all of them that i can 💗💗
Haven't made it through the video yet.. but Just wanted to say how Happy I am to see you!
thank you! feels good to be back. ive been missing the youtubey world ❤
Awe frigggg... How heartbreaking of an update this has been. It is so nice to see you again though Valerie. Its been so long! I'm so sorry that the past year has been so dang unreasonable with you. :( Sometimes life simply isn't fair, and often times the unpredictable and/or worst things happen to those who honestly seem to deserve it the least, and I hate it. I wish humans knew more about cancer and were better able to deal with it. I'm insanely glad that you don't have cancer anymore. I wish I could give you a giant hug right now. Look forward to seeing more of you. Keep on smiling!! 😁❤ :wiggle:
**gasp** its my friend Jooooody!!! i havent talked to you in forever!! how have you been? what have you been up to? how is pAAAAsta? 💗😂 (i love your cat). thanks, yea this year has felt really unfair. im just trying to take it one day at a time and grow from it. a giant jody hug would be nice 😢💗💗💗. stay safe and healthy my friend **wiggle wiggle** 😁
Oh Val! My heart goes out to you. You're not inconveniencing anyone who loves you!! You're such a light woman!!! You are amazing!!! You are beautiful!! I've missed u
Nikki!!! i've missed you friend!! last i saw was on your channel you did a live stream and you were setting up in a little shop. how are you? how is the reselling business? thank you, i try to remind myself that im no inconveniencing anyone. you my friend are amazing. stay safe and healthy! 💗💗💗
@@Valamilk aweww val made me cry darnit!!!! I'm so glad you are well..and keep positive!!! Positivity begats positivity just like negativity begats negativity! You're strong tho Val...you could help other young women that are not as strong as you with this. It would heal your mind so much to bring other like ppl peace of mind an outlet to talk...idk just some ideas. I think you would be spectacular at that!!! Gingerbread man again this year? We should just for old times sake
@@NikPikThrift yesss, positivity begats positivity. i believe that with my whole heart! i love that idea of helping others get through this. i hope i can, but i dont know if im strong enough emotionally. i want to be. lol i completely forgot about my gingerbread man. yes i think i will
@@Valamilk so looking forward to it! In due time my young grasshopper you will see what the light at the end of the tunnel entails. Much love Valerie!!
Hey Val Happy to see you, how you are doing and share whats going on. No PAAASTA In the world could compete with the amount of courage you have to overcome this. YOU GOT THIS!!!!!!!!!
hey Chris!!!!! so happy to see you too! heck yeah I GOT THIS!!! lololol "paaaaaasta" 😂💗
Thank you for your candid video. I don't know what to say other than cancer sucks. I look forward to watching your videos, they always made me smile. I will keep you in my prayers. 💖 If I lived closer I'd be giving you a big hug, since I don't here's a virtual hug 🤗.
hey Rachel!! how are you Michael and the pups?!? thats a daily thought .."cancer sucks". im just so grateful for all the support from my family and chad 💗. thank you, im excited to be back on youtube, it makes me feel hopeful. thank you for the prayers, i will take all of them that i can!! sending you back a virtual hug 🤗!!!
@@Valamilk Doing pretty good here. Have 2 girls in heat, 1 intact male so it's been doggie shuffle for a while. We had one oopsie litter, not wanting a repeat. I don't do puppies in quantity.😂 Looking at other people's puppies is great, give em some loves and walk away..When they're in a whelping box in your bedroom things get loud, messy and stinky😉
@@rachelnicholson4145 lol i feel like chad is the same way. he loooves puppies... other peoples puppies lol. poor bella is getting so old and cranky i dont think she'd know how to act with a puppy. and the cat is just a jerk lol he doesnt get along with anyone except chad lol.
I love you Val! Sorry you had to go through that 🙏 Big hugs to you. Here for you anytime you need a friend 🥰 So glad to see you back.
love you too Jennifer! thank you. i feel like being honest and putting this out there is going to make the healing process that much easier. same goes for me, im here for you too! 💗
Wow...I was just wondering how everyone was doing so I checked your channel and came across this video. Glad you are getting through this tough time and you were very brave to make this video. Hope you are staying healthy and I wish you all the best in all you do! You are a survivor...stay strong and live life!!!
So glad to see you! I have thought about you alot while you were gone! I look forward to seeing your videos again. Glad you are on this side of it all. ❤
hey Patti! thank you, that means a lot to me that i was in your thoughts! im so happy and hopeful!
Skipped my video watching for a few days and find you have one up. Missed them. I always managed to come away smiling even if its hours watching and laughing at you and a gingerbread house. Wasn’t expecting this and soooo sorry you have had to go through this. glad you will be healthy going forward after all these terrible and unfair events. Sounds like you have a good and knowledgeable support group. Great, use them. You probably have heard many times already anything I or others here can say. Just shows how many care and your well-being is of importance. I’ll throw in my 2 cents, or dollars, worth. First, it’s OK and NORMAL to have any and all emotions and thoughts at anytime. If people see, Those that matter, understand. Those that don’t understand, it doesn’t matter. Only thing that matters is that you come away after all is done as good or at least ok. Shows your character when you think of others first. There are times in life where needs come first and time to be “selfish”. This qualifies at the top. Just as you doing a load of laundry was your immediate method to be able to have control and do something to cope. Those “inconveniences” of others will allow them to wash their own form of laundry and do something. I know it’s mostly past, but let that part slip away as worries or guilt of affecting others. The long talker I am, you know I could go for pages and chapters more, but I won’t. You know it and it’s good enough if you know others will tell it or add support if it will help. Never a need to rush things for others but it sounds good that you will be back around content or not. One day at a time and bring back “normal”, hopefully happiness
Soooooooo happy to have you back on the you tubes my friend. I have sincerely missed my fellow introverted, weirdo, hobo friend. I recently went back and watched your "You are enough" video, I needed a Val pick me up. Just remember you are NOT alone, so many of us are just a call or text away and zero judgement if you are just having a crappy day and need to vent to someone not tied to your daily life. Hope Mama Valamilk is doing okay. Hugs and peace to you and the family
im happy to be back my friend 💗! lol im back and im still an introverted, weirdo, hobo 😂😂. thank you i might take you up on that...it'll give chad a break from having to hear about my crappy days lol. mamma valamilk is doing good. she had a concussion and she was pretty sore but shes feeling a lot better. hugs and much love to you!! stay safe and healthy💗💗
@@Valamilk feel free to contact me, I am available any time.
Hey Val I’m glad to see you back. I’m so sorry you had to deal with this. I will continue to pray for your continued healing. We are all excited to see you around again.
Thanks for sharing Val.. Really says a lot about someone when they receive news like you did, and their biggest concern is bothering other people. lol
hahaha right?? first concern...finishing the laundry lol.... second concern, not inconveniencing anyone 😄
You are one tough person Val. I’m glad you are back and doing better.
thank you Dan! i wasnt about to go down without a fight lol. looking forward to growing and getting stronger every day 💗💗
I've been thinking about you almost every day since you left social media. I felt something serious must have been happening. Very sorry for what you went through. So happy to see you here. Best wishes on your road ahead.
hey lynn! its really good to hear from you! its been so long!! every once in a while i check yalls youtube channels to see if youre (you, allison, candace, kaya) posting lol i miss watching yall!! thank you, im very hopeful for everything the future has in store for me. 💗
Val it is so good to see you back on RUclips. I have always loved your smiling face. My sister in law just beat breast cancer. Rung her last bell yesterday as a matter of fact. At your young age they do not do routine mammograms and for this very reason they should. At the end of the day Val, you are here and no matter what choice you made, you made the right one for you and you are here!
I was thinking about you a few weeks ago hoping that you were well. There are those youtube creators who you watch and then suddenly stop creating for some reason. I enjoy the videos you have put out and look forward to more. I wasn't expecting this news, but I'm happy to see you back. Much love and many prayers for both of you.
hey Tim! thank you, i am happy to be back. im ready to try and move forward on my channel, i really did miss it. and thank you for the love and prayers 💗💗
❤️❤️❤️
💗💗💗
So happy to see you Val!
thank you nikki, im so happy to hear from you. ive missed you a lot!!!!! 💗
All I can say is You are awesome and we are thankful you are still with us smeagle 😉.
it feels good to be back on youtube...its...my precious **gollum voice** 😄😂 lol but really im happy to be back. and to be doing good.
💪You Are Amazing Val, Take your time - We are honored to be apart of your life. ♥️
thank you Danica 💗😌 this comment makes me feel very loved. the same goes for you, im so honored to be apart of your life and youre just a positive energy that im grateful to have in my life.
Val, you are absolutely amazing 🙌💞💪
thank you Meesha! im trying hard every day to kick some butt 💪💪💗
Hi Val 💗
You are a brave woman, and this cancer picked the wrong Latina to try and smush down 💪🏼💥💯 this video is going to help a lot of people through their dark places. You went through the valley of shadow of death, and the key word is “through” 😉
By the way, I think Gollum is super cute even when he cries 😛
Hey Esme! heck yea it picked the wrong latina to mess with!! i hope this video and future ones to come can be a help to others. i know when i was first going through it i was searching youtube to find other people going through it as well. for a while it was very dark, but i had chad and my family to light the way for me. im hoping one day i can return the favor and be the light for someone else 💗. bahahahahaha he is pretty cute when he cries 😏
🙏🏻👍🏻🙏🏻 You are brave and strong. Sorry that you had to go through this! Prayers and welcome back 💞🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow! I don't know what to say! I'm glad you beat cancer. My birthday twin ( a family friend with my bday) died of cancer May 30th. He suffered terribly from it at 28 years old. I'm so glad you got thru it physically. Emotionally it will take time. I'm praying for you! 🙏🙏
thank you, im grateful to be doing so good. ugh im really sorry to hear that. cancer sucks. its unfair to the people who have it, and its so unfair to the family and friends of the people that have it. yea, im just taking it one day at a time (sometimes one hour at a time lol). but i know one day it will all get easier. thank you for the prayers i do really appreciate them!
God bless you cousin. Love you. ❤
thank you my cousin i love you too 💗💗
I watched all 38 minutes! Thanks val for being you
lol 38 minutes is a lot of valamilk. thank you i appreciate that 💗💗💗
💖
❤️❤️❤️
That's some heavy stuff to go through Valerie. I wish that I could take it all away for you.
Hey Brin. thank you for the kind words. it means a lot to me 💗. ive got hope for the future that it wont be so heavy 💗
Hi! I know this is an older video but I just came across your videos. I was looking up reseller content, particularly in Denver area and found you. I had to comment. I just completed my cancer treatments, I’m stage 2, had a bilateral mastectomy, did the chemo and radiation. If you ever want to talk , feel free to reach out. Im glad to hear you went through a bilateral mastectomy, I agree with your decision and the why. Cancer is a strange journey. And yes, it’s crazy how many people you end up showing your boobs to. 😆
You are strong babes!!!
thank you!! 💪💗
Beautiful Doll

There is no good luck with cancer!!! I'm so glad you did what was best for you val!! Hey if need be ill send you my water inserts lol!!! Make me 1 cup bigger ;)
