it's OK to cry, it doesn't mean you are unhappy or have an unhappy life. You have such a beautiful blessed life. Peter and Ollie and your parents and sister... just so blessed. So crying doesn't mean unhappy, it means, "this is a tough moment."
MARY!! For someone who doesn't know how to thank someone or "give back" ... let me tell u Your Spirit alone is enough to brighten an entire world!! Rock on girl!!
I love to see how much Peter cares about you, but I see so much sadness behind his smile. You really have a great man next to you, making your life much easier with his tender love.
Crying is good, it helps relieve stress. And I know that the clips we see are you being happy most of the time but I'm sure there are more down times we don't see. Prayers for answers and a plan, love and hugs.
Don't feel you have to put on a happy face for us. We're all out here struggling with our different stuff - maybe not as big as your stuff, but it always feels big when you're in it! I lift you up in my prayers - all three of you!
This disease will just tear you down and sometimes you just have to cry. You wonder when the storm is going to stop. CFers are seriously the strongest people in the world and I am honored to be apart of this group. Mary you are so strong. Thank you for sharing your life.
The ukulele really got me in the feels. Also, he sounds way better than one would expect after playing for only 15 minutes!

Dear Mary and Peter... I can not put into words how the vlogs inspire, educate and deeply touch me. I've been watching the vlogs for months and remembering the times I was in the hospital for weeks and the only thing I wanted to hear from people was "I am here, you are not alone in this", so I say it to you guys. I believe we do not need to physically know someone to be there for them, let's say. So there are almost 100.000 people inside that hospital room with you guys. Finally, don't ever forget the amount of love that comes from each and every part of the globe, directly to your hearts. Kisses from Brazil.
Mary, you are a true star. Peter are a huge star too, Oliver has a star for every curl! I think why people love the Frey life so much is because you both keep it real, in everything. Your faith, your marriage, your CF life as a team. You both show what love and sacrifice are in its purest forms. So tears are fine, you've been in hospital 3 weeks, that's enough to make anyone get frustrated, plus you are still feeling so sick. It's been a miserable gloomy, rainy day here in Northern Ireland, but at around 430pm (uk time) I saw the most beautiful sunset and I thought of you guys. Sending you all huge hugs!!
Mary I hate to see your tears. As I had told you that in past I have IPF end it looks like I'm headed back into the hospital. I see how strong you are and see how much you fight, sometimes I can get into a very dark place and want to give up. But, I think of my children, my husband and how you fight and choose joy. Thank you you help me through my struggles. Blessing to to you
The Frey Life Thanks for always responding and making me feel special! My channel is smaller than yours and I find it hard to respond to everyone!! I appreciate you doing that!
Watching this 6 years later is amazing. Who would of guessed where you would be now with.a sweet baby.boy and much better health. You continue to kick butt daily. It's very inspiring
For as bad as it sounds, crying is good. It's your body's way to release all that pent up energy. Better out than in!! I feel your frustration with not having answers. I've had unexplained pains for going on 6 years now. My doctor keeps telling me "you have to be okay with not having an answer." It's the hardest thing to accept. Some days are good. Some days are not. All days are blessed. Big hugs!!
How precious is every tear you shed, Mary. Praying for you and Peter as you await answers. Love your beautiful singing voice, song and Peter's playing. Rest well tonight.
Praying for you both! There are days when I have to say this verse over and over. "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13
You both are so precious Me finding you guys on YT is a true gift from above. My daily walk with Him has grown so much since finding your ministry. Hugs and blessings.
Mary, you've inspired me to get a job (it's been 8 years of locking myself away in my room, feeling sorry for myself because of the fibromyalgia since I worked last) and I just wanted to say, thank you! Your bravery to face every day with a smile and laughter made me realize that life is passing me by. Thank you for putting your trials and tribulations out there for everyone to see!! Peter, your willingness to do all that you can for Mary and Olly is always heart warming!! There are very few men like you left in this world. You truly amaze me. I love you all three of you so very much!! Thank you for allowing us into your life!!!
Mary please don't be sad, you are so strong and tough I wish I could tell you what you have helped me get through this year, You showing how strong and brave helps me with I have recently been diagnosed with cancer and had to have surgery at 33 years old, and my entire life I have wanted to be a mom and my husband wanted to be a dad but that's not possible anymore, please just know that you are helping so many people in so many ways, thank you all so much for sharing your lives with us! Thoughts and prayers , and have a blessed Christmas
Mary I can't even comprehend what you're going through, it truly breaks my heart to see you so down. Never give up hope, sending love and wishing you happiness x
You are so courageous, crying is good.. sign of strength.. You are an incredible role model.. I cant even express how incredible Peter is... You two make an invincible team.
I know the feeling of being sick and not having answers or a plan. My heart goes out to you Mary and I'm praying you'll get to feeling better soon. You're really such an inspiration with your positive attitude........Also, that face that Peter made when the IV started to beep cracked me up! XD
My heart goes out to you and Peter.. your lives are so much more complicated than most people could understand and still you take time to make your vlog and share the details of your journey with us 💕 I hope that the fungal culture comes back and you can move forward in a successful treatment plan ☺️
My thoughts and prayers are with you daily, Mary, Peter, and Ollie. It is so challenging to live with a chronic illness. Pain/not feeling well does interfere with the ability to take in information. You are doing everything right. I'm glad you were able to move your bed around. It definitely helps to rearrange things when you can. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
Healing Huggs & many prayers for the Lord to heal you & renew your strength! I can't hold my tears back seeing you cry! Life is just unfair sometimes. 😔
Mary and Peter, keep hanging in there. You are such incredible roll models for others with chronic illnesses. I have times when I quit fighting and I don't work as hard as I can to stay well. Your daily vlogs have shown me how fighting EVERY day is worth the effort. I have gained a better understanding of hard work in managing my illness through watching you handle yours. Thanks for sharing your experiences with others so we too may see joy in our own lives.
Mary, You are on an emotional roller coaster. Please dont every apologize for tears. My prayer goes to God for you and Peter. Keep up the determination. I know your vlogs are helping someone else.
Sometimes there just needs to be tears. They are very cleansing. Also sometimes i wish there was a place you could go and break old dishes and stuff just relieve your stress! God bless both. You are such fine young people!
There is nothing worse than waiting for answers. I've been in the hospital 200+ days this year and still waiting for answers. I wish I could give you a hug. It's so hard. People forget this is your life. Every day. All the time.
The yukele and the song made for an amazing ending to a trying day...you always turn things around and its a great thing to see....Im glad you share it all.
I'm hospitalized more than I am home and I'm currently admitted and watching your videos helps remind me I'm not alone in this, may be different illnesses but same chronically ill struggles. I like to live by the motto everyday may not be good, but there is something good in everyday! Even if the only good thing about the day is simply being alive, it's still something. A bad day doesn't mean a bad life and I always remind myself of that. I like to put a giant poster board on the wall and have people add inspirational/encouraging quotes and I always write "don't forget to laugh everyday" as soon as I put it up :) thank you for your videos and sharing your journey it's hard to show that vulnerability but I'm the same way with sharing my journey if it can help even one person it's all worth it. Thank you for reminding me it's okay to not be okay as long as you don't give up. We are only human we have to be realistic we have to cry and break down sometimes. Sending all my love!
You have made it longer in the hospital than I ever have before hitting "crazy mode". Hugs to you both. Please don't feel like you have to entertain us, your truth and where you are right now is so honest and real. Plus, I can just SEE the day in my mind when you're out of there, and Peter is drone-filming footage of you doing fun outdoor things!
It's only normal to feel down or discouraged sometimes, especially when you don't feel well. As strong as you are, it still sucks to feel gross. You are doing amazing and an inspiration to everyone watching everyday you fight through the frustration and show us what it means to have faith in the midst of uncertainty. Lots of love from London.
Ahhhh Mary and Peter!!!!!!! I actually learned to play the ukulele in the hospital (part on my own, part with music therapy). It'll be the best distraction, and it'll keep you busy for sure. I LOVE the use, and still play it 2 1/2 years later! Yay!!!!! Enjoy!
I hope you are SO proud of yourself, Mary. You are a strong, funny, loving, kind, understanding woman who is dealing with a very difficult situation. Please recognize how very well you are coping. And, you have a lovely singing voice. Blessings, Cathy xo
I know just how you feel about wanting a plan and needing to feel better and being tired and all of it! Sometimes you just need to cry before you can get back to the fight. Also, Cosmo burps like a monster after he eats so our kids have that in common.
Peter, your drone footage is fantastic! And Mary, you're so strong, you continue to inspire :) I hope this is a sign of better days ahead for you. Sending lots of love
Big hugs to both of you. I'm praying that the fungus results come in early. I know how frustrating it is getting through a disease that sucks and sometimes you need a good a cry. Maybe Peter can go to Joann's or Michael's get a gingerbread house kit or the Ugly Gingerbread Sweater decorating kit.
Side note: When I was last in the hospital (2013 but different condition), my friend who was staying with me in the hospital unplugged the IV pump so I could use the restroom and then never plugged it back in, so it was 2 am when it went off...we had very similar reactions as Peter's.
Honestly, you show true strength. You're helping me to manage my own conditions and let myself to cry and take a break. My favourite quote is "every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day" - it definitely seems to fit you and Peter xx I'm keeping you in my thoughts xx Also, I'm loving the port song xD
Chronic illnesses always have so many ups and downs and sometimes the downs feel so very low. When our children were very little (6, 4 and 1) my husband ended up in hospital unexpectedly in January and the hospital was 2.5 hours away from our home through two mountain passes. It was really tough, as we didn't know if he would survive and the prognosis at the time was fairly bleak. It is interesting how our Lord uses these times to not only teach us lessons that make us stronger, but also when we are in the midst of turmoil he uses our situation to bless others. That 1 year old, just turned 29, my husband is still with us and reasonably healthy. He is also a minister, like you are Peter, and we learned some really important life lessons that have served us well throughout his ministry. We always reminded people that you have to remember to laugh at something everyday. I feel strongly that your witness during this rough patch is multiplied beyond your imagining. I will continue to pray for your spirits to be lifted and health improved. We've walked in your shoes... not with CF, but with Cancer. Sending virtual hugs and love, but more importantly prayers are rising without ceasing for both of you and those that your lives and story are touching.
I cried when you cried. You continue to keep going you and peter. I been sick for a while now but I get a lot of hope from you and peter. Keep fighting as long as you can God loves you both very much. I hope you feel better soon.
Thank you for sharing your lives with us. You are so real and raw with us. And that makes us feel like we truly are a part of your family. Don't ever feel like you can't cry with us (and I do mean with us, as we cry with you). We love all three of you.
The song at the end was great...the look on Peter's face was priceless....that was serious....he wasn't messing around lol I love you guys.....you are an inspiration!
Love you guys sooo much . There's nothing wrong with crying Mary . It doesn't mean you're not strong , Jesus wept. You are such an inspiration , your happiness and that giggle are more special than you know .
I'm so sorry you've had a really rough go of things Mary (& Peter). I'm sending tons of prayers your way. You're allowed to have down days and work through those emotions. I admire your fortitude and faith. You & your family are in my prayers as always. Sometimes things are taken a day, an hour, a half hour, 15 min, or a minute at a time. ❤
Aww Mary you are an amazing warrior even warriors cry sometimes. Peter you take such awesome care of Mary. Lol Peter's face when the iv pump started beeping! The snowman impression was hilarious! Also, nice port song 😀👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Peter, that shot of you looking up and smiling while the drone goes up from you at 8:47-48 deserves to be part your new video intro if you come out with a new one anytime soon. It's perfect.
Hang in there Mary. I'm dealing with esophageal cancer, and am now terminal, so I understand your frustration over the setbacks. I'll keep you in my prayers.
Oh Mary, it is ok if you cry! Nothing bad about crying with what you are going through and how you feel. Prayers for you feeling better and getting to go home🙏🙏
Oh Mary, I can see how frustrated you are and for good reason. I know how hard it is, believe me I know. I know that having a positive attitude is absolutely important but this process isn't easy and its ok to let your frustration out through tears and anger. You are in my prayers.
Dear Mary, seeing your anguish made me wish I could give you a warm hug. Don't be afraid or embarrassed for tears. Tears help us cope and let's face it, who can sleep in a hospital anyway. LOVE your new song! Peter plays very well. Don't you hate it when you spill the dogfood and you are trying to so careful.😉 God Bless, hugs and much love. 😘 🙏 ❤
I know how frustrating hospital stays can be, esp when you expected a certain time frame & instead it just goes on and on and on. Crying and getting it out is good for you so cry all you want. Sending prayers and lots of ❤💚💜💙💛 your way.
What an amazing family. Mary, you cried and I had to cry along with you. There is always a calm before the storm, and a storm before the calm. I live your awsome song Mary, and that expression on Peters face had made my night. Good night to you Peter Mary and Ollie boy..
A quote of yours that I often think of is "don't forget to laugh everyday" I always look forward to that with every new vlog. Even though you are going through a rough time right now, I feel like you are always trying to find the good in every moment! Thank you guys for being an inspiration for me! We'll see you tomorow! Goodnight ✨❤️
Lord, please lay your healing hands on Mary and heal her completely. We also pray for Peter and for His strength to help Mary. God has you and is carrying you through this. Just keep the faith! Many blessings!
So glad that ended on a song! My heart was breaking to see you so upset. You do an amazing job keeping positive but you're human. It's TOUGH what you live every day. And it's so true what you said about it being harder to cope with news when you feel unwell. I know I get depressed when I have my "off" days and I don't have anywhere near the complications you do so I'm not surprised the smile falters sometimes. Big gentle hugs to both of you from across the pond xoxo
Oh darling! I'm so sorry that you had such a frustrating day from a medical point of view. Just know that all of us of all faiths are cheering for you and praying to Hashem to grant you the healing and respite that you need. And we're cheering Peter & Ollie on too xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm 63 and have had Juvenile Rheumatoid arthritis since age 2. Not exactly the same challenges as you, Mary. But I just wanted to let you know that you have an enormous prayer support team. I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time. Love you, hang on!💞
My eyes leaked when your were leaking. Sometimes it's hard to be strong ALL the time, warriors need a 5 minute break every once and awhile.
I could not have said it any better.
well said, I leaked too and my cheeks suddenly got washed.
Valerie Foster stated purrrfect!
Valerie Foster agree
Mary, crying doesn't equal quitting or weakness!
Jennifer Cannon exactly! It means you're processing emotion and destressing
I just love it when Mary sings. That raspiness feeds my soul!
it's OK to cry, it doesn't mean you are unhappy or have an unhappy life. You have such a beautiful blessed life. Peter and Ollie and your parents and sister... just so blessed. So crying doesn't mean unhappy, it means, "this is a tough moment."
MARY!! For someone who doesn't know how to thank someone or "give back" ... let me tell u Your Spirit alone is enough to brighten an entire world!! Rock on girl!!
Watching Peter wipe away her tears is so touching to watch. She's a lucky girl to have a life partner like him! XD
Todays video was REAL, tears, laughter, music...all in one day. Thats how it is living with a chronic health issue. Great closing today!
I love to see how much Peter cares about you, but I see so much sadness behind his smile. You really have a great man next to you, making your life much easier with his tender love.
Crying is good, it helps relieve stress. And I know that the clips we see are you being happy most of the time but I'm sure there are more down times we don't see. Prayers for answers and a plan, love and hugs.
Mary, don't forget how loved you are by people all of the world. You inspire us all everyday!
Don't feel you have to put on a happy face for us. We're all out here struggling with our different stuff - maybe not as big as your stuff, but it always feels big when you're in it! I lift you up in my prayers - all three of you!
This disease will just tear you down and sometimes you just have to cry. You wonder when the storm is going to stop. CFers are seriously the strongest people in the world and I am honored to be apart of this group. Mary you are so strong. Thank you for sharing your life.
The ukulele really got me in the feels. Also, he sounds way better than one would expect after playing for only 15 minutes!

Finally, don't ever forget the amount of love that comes from each and every part of the globe, directly to your hearts. Kisses from Brazil.
My mom always said, "Tears make room for more." More laughter, more memories, more happiness, more life. ❤️
Mary, you are a true star. Peter are a huge star too, Oliver has a star for every curl! I think why people love the Frey life so much is because you both keep it real, in everything. Your faith, your marriage, your CF life as a team. You both show what love and sacrifice are in its purest forms. So tears are fine, you've been in hospital 3 weeks, that's enough to make anyone get frustrated, plus you are still feeling so sick. It's been a miserable gloomy, rainy day here in Northern Ireland, but at around 430pm (uk time) I saw the most beautiful sunset and I thought of you guys. Sending you all huge hugs!!
Mary I hate to see your tears. As I had told you that in past I have IPF end it looks like I'm headed back into the hospital. I see how strong you are and see how much you fight, sometimes I can get into a very dark place and want to give up. But, I think of my children, my husband and how you fight and choose joy.

I have never seen a more adorable couple
Awe :) Thanks!
The Frey Life Thanks for always responding and making me feel special! My channel is smaller than yours and I find it hard to respond to everyone!! I appreciate you doing that!
Watching this 6 years later is amazing. Who would of guessed where you would be now with.a sweet baby.boy and much better health. You continue to kick butt daily. It's very inspiring
For as bad as it sounds, crying is good. It's your body's way to release all that pent up energy. Better out than in!! I feel your frustration with not having answers. I've had unexplained pains for going on 6 years now. My doctor keeps telling me "you have to be okay with not having an answer." It's the hardest thing to accept. Some days are good.

How precious is every tear you shed, Mary.
Praying for you and Peter as you await answers.
Love your beautiful singing voice, song and Peter's playing. Rest well tonight.
My heart breaks seeing you cry. It's good to let it out. You are a CF warrior and Peter is strong fighting with you!
Praying for you both! There are days when I have to say this verse over and over.
"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13
You both are so precious Me finding you guys on YT is a true gift from above. My daily walk with Him has grown so much since finding your ministry. Hugs and blessings.
Loco Cocoa Puffs! I think I'm gonna steal that phrase 😉
I really hope you feel better soon Mary my heart broke when you cried 😢
Everybody needs to have a melt down. It helps the mind and soul. Hugs to you all
Don't give up Mary. you give up. you give so many of us strength to push through our own health issues. I am praying for u.
Mary, you've inspired me to get a job (it's been 8 years of locking myself away in my room, feeling sorry for myself because of the fibromyalgia since I worked last) and I just wanted to say, thank you! Your bravery to face every day with a smile and laughter made me realize that life is passing me by. Thank you for putting your trials and tribulations out there for everyone to see!!
Peter, your willingness to do all that you can for Mary and Olly is always heart warming!! There are very few men like you left in this world. You truly amaze me. I love you all three of you so very much!! Thank you for allowing us into your life!!!
I guessed right that it was your pump. Two points for me. It's the little things that make me happy!
Praying for you Mary. I hope you feel better soon and get some answers. You are so sweet and kind and everyone hates seeing you so sad!
Mary please don't be sad, you are so strong and tough I wish I could tell you what you have helped me get through this year, You showing how strong and brave helps me with I have recently been diagnosed with cancer and had to have surgery at 33 years old, and my entire life I have wanted to be a mom and my husband wanted to be a dad but that's not possible anymore, please just know that you are helping so many people in so many ways, thank you all so much for sharing your lives with us! Thoughts and prayers , and have a blessed Christmas
they are so silly and sweet , I always feel bad for her but she makes everything so positive ♡
Mary I can't even comprehend what you're going through, it truly breaks my heart to see you so down. Never give up hope, sending love and wishing you happiness x
THE WAY PETER LOOKS AT MARY DURING THEIR MUSIC SESH
You are so brave. Don't feel bad about crying it is a good stress relief. We all need that once in a while. Sending you both love and prayers.
You are so courageous, crying is good.. sign of strength.. You are an incredible role model.. I cant even express how incredible Peter is... You two make an invincible team.
Mary you are very lucky to have a husband like Peter. He is so wonderful to stay with you and do the store. Love e you both.
Just because you cry doesn't mean you aren't strong! Hugs! ❤️️❤️️❤️️❤️️
ugh that is so frustrating I feel for you Mary.. you are one strong woman ☺ much love and peace to you and your husband ❤☮
You are on my heart. I am praying for you that you find complete comfort in His presence. Your struggle is heartbreaking for me to watch.
I know the feeling of being sick and not having answers or a plan. My heart goes out to you Mary and I'm praying you'll get to feeling better soon. You're really such an inspiration with your positive attitude........Also, that face that Peter made when the IV started to beep cracked me up! XD
Haha peter your face while Mary was singing! Brilliant!
My heart goes out to you and Peter.. your lives are so much more complicated than most people could understand and still you take time to make your vlog and share the details of your journey with us 💕 I hope that the fungal culture comes back and you can move forward in a successful treatment plan ☺️
My thoughts and prayers are with you daily, Mary, Peter, and Ollie. It is so challenging to live with a chronic illness. Pain/not feeling well does interfere with the ability to take in information. You are doing everything right. I'm glad you were able to move your bed around. It definitely helps to rearrange things when you can. Thank you for sharing your life with us.
Praying for your lungs to clear up and be free from all infections.. You are a Rock Star! Beautiful Mary!
Healing Huggs & many prayers for the Lord to heal you & renew your strength! I can't hold my tears back seeing you cry! Life is just unfair sometimes. 😔
It is so great to see the love you two have for each other.
Mary and Peter, keep hanging in there. You are such incredible roll models for others with chronic illnesses. I have times when I quit fighting and I don't work as hard as I can to stay well. Your daily vlogs have shown me how fighting EVERY day is worth the effort. I have gained a better understanding of hard work in managing my illness through watching you handle yours.

Sometimes there just needs to be tears. They are very cleansing. Also sometimes i wish there was a place you could go and break old dishes and stuff just relieve your stress! God bless both. You are such fine young people!
There is nothing worse than waiting for answers. I've been in the hospital 200+ days this year and still waiting for answers. I wish I could give you a hug. It's so hard. People forget this is your life. Every day. All the time.
I love your new port song! :-) So glad you got the ukulele! :-)
Wow guys, the video editing and quality is amazing in this video! Peter, the drone footage was so great
The yukele and the song made for an amazing ending to a trying day...you always turn things around and its a great thing to see....Im glad you share it all.
Ariel footage was awesome!!! The song at the end made me laugh. I rather like y'all.
It really gets me teary eyed when you cry! Much love to the Adorable 3!
I'm hospitalized more than I am home and I'm currently admitted and watching your videos helps remind me I'm not alone in this, may be different illnesses but same chronically ill struggles. I like to live by the motto everyday may not be good, but there is something good in everyday! Even if the only good thing about the day is simply being alive, it's still something. A bad day doesn't mean a bad life and I always remind myself of that.

Thank you for reminding me it's okay to not be okay as long as you don't give up. We are only human we have to be realistic we have to cry and break down sometimes. Sending all my love!
You have made it longer in the hospital than I ever have before hitting "crazy mode". Hugs to you both. Please don't feel like you have to entertain us, your truth and where you are right now is so honest and real.

Ahhhh Mary and Peter!!!!!!! I actually learned to play the ukulele in the hospital (part on my own, part with music therapy). It'll be the best distraction, and it'll keep you busy for sure. I LOVE the use, and still play it 2 1/2 years later! Yay!!!!! Enjoy!
I hope you are SO proud of yourself, Mary. You are a strong, funny, loving, kind, understanding woman who is dealing with a very difficult situation. Please recognize how very well you are coping. And, you have a lovely singing voice. Blessings, Cathy xo
I know just how you feel about wanting a plan and needing to feel better and being tired and all of it! Sometimes you just need to cry before you can get back to the fight. Also, Cosmo burps like a monster after he eats so our kids have that in common.
Peter, your drone footage is fantastic! And Mary, you're so strong, you continue to inspire :)
I hope this is a sign of better days ahead for you. Sending lots of love
Big hugs to both of you. I'm praying that the fungus results come in early. I know how frustrating it is getting through a disease that sucks and sometimes you need a good a cry. Maybe Peter can go to Joann's or Michael's get a gingerbread house kit or the Ugly Gingerbread Sweater decorating kit.
Side note: When I was last in the hospital (2013 but different condition), my friend who was staying with me in the hospital unplugged the IV pump so I could use the restroom and then never plugged it back in, so it was 2 am when it went off...we had very similar reactions as Peter's.
Oh... The sounds of the hospital!!! When I am in the hospital my pump always goes off at night but is fine throughout the day.
Honestly, you show true strength. You're helping me to manage my own conditions and let myself to cry and take a break. My favourite quote is "every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day" - it definitely seems to fit you and Peter xx I'm keeping you in my thoughts xx
Also, I'm loving the port song xD
Chronic illnesses always have so many ups and downs and sometimes the downs feel so very low. When our children were very little (6, 4 and 1) my husband ended up in hospital unexpectedly in January and the hospital was 2.5 hours away from our home through two mountain passes. It was really tough, as we didn't know if he would survive and the prognosis at the time was fairly bleak. It is interesting how our Lord uses these times to not only teach us lessons that make us stronger, but also when we are in the midst of turmoil he uses our situation to bless others. That 1 year old, just turned 29, my husband is still with us and reasonably healthy. He is also a minister, like you are Peter, and we learned some really important life lessons that have served us well throughout his ministry. We always reminded people that you have to remember to laugh at something everyday. I feel strongly that your witness during this rough patch is multiplied beyond your imagining. I will continue to pray for your spirits to be lifted and health improved. We've walked in your shoes... not with CF, but with Cancer. Sending virtual hugs and love, but more importantly prayers are rising without ceasing for both of you and those that your lives and story are touching.

Mary, you are in my thoughts and prayers as you continue to recover.
You and peter should make some paper snowflakes for the room! It will give you something new to look at and something to do :)
Love you guys sooo much . There's nothing wrong with crying Mary . It doesn't mean you're not strong , Jesus wept. You are such an inspiration , your happiness and that giggle are more special than you know .
I'm so sorry you've had a really rough go of things Mary (& Peter). I'm sending tons of prayers your way. You're allowed to have down days and work through those emotions. I admire your fortitude and faith. You & your family are in my prayers as always. Sometimes things are taken a day, an hour, a half hour, 15 min, or a minute at a time. ❤
Aww Mary you are an amazing warrior even warriors cry sometimes. Peter you take such awesome care of Mary. Lol Peter's face when the iv pump started beeping! The snowman impression was hilarious! Also, nice port song 😀👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It breaks my heart when I see you cry. 💔💔💔
I'm so sorry! I have and will continue to pray for you. it breaks my heart to see you cry, but I totally understand. sending you a hug, Mary. xoxo
Peter, that shot of you looking up and smiling while the drone goes up from you at 8:47-48 deserves to be part your new video intro if you come out with a new one anytime soon. It's perfect.
Peter is such a great husband so comforting to Mary
Peter, your camera work is amazing! Those artsy shots outside the hospital look great!
Hang in there Mary. I'm dealing with esophageal cancer, and am now terminal, so I understand your frustration over the setbacks. I'll keep you in my prayers.
Oh Mary, it is ok if you cry! Nothing bad about crying with what you are going through and how you feel. Prayers for you feeling better and getting to go home🙏🙏
Oh Mary, I can see how frustrated you are and for good reason. I know how hard it is, believe me I know. I know that having a positive attitude is absolutely important but this process isn't easy and its ok to let your frustration out through tears and anger. You are in my prayers.
I wish nothing but the best for you Mary. You and Peter are an inspiration. Cheers, from Nova Scotia.
Dear Mary, seeing your anguish made me wish I could give you a warm hug. Don't be afraid or embarrassed for tears. Tears help us cope and let's face it, who can sleep in a hospital anyway. LOVE your new song! Peter plays very well. Don't you hate it when you spill the dogfood and you are trying to so careful.😉 God Bless, hugs and much love. 😘 🙏 ❤
I know how frustrating hospital stays can be, esp when you expected a certain time frame & instead it just goes on and on and on. Crying and getting it out is good for you so cry all you want. Sending prayers and lots of ❤💚💜💙💛 your way.
I have a ukulele and I can't play anywhere near as good as Peter. It is great to see you smile.
The footage of the drone is totally awesome!!!
You, Peter and Ollie are beautiful souls! Sending positive thoughts for all of you!
What an amazing family.
Mary, you cried and I had to cry along with you.
There is always a calm before the storm, and a storm before the calm.
I live your awsome song Mary, and that expression on Peters face had made my night.
Good night to you Peter Mary and Ollie boy..
A quote of yours that I often think of is "don't forget to laugh everyday" I always look forward to that with every new vlog. Even though you are going through a rough time right now, I feel like you are always trying to find the good in every moment! Thank you guys for being an inspiration for me!
We'll see you tomorow! Goodnight ✨❤️
Lord, please lay your healing hands on Mary and heal her completely. We also pray for Peter and for His strength to help Mary. God has you and is carrying you through this. Just keep the faith! Many blessings!
So glad that ended on a song! My heart was breaking to see you so upset. You do an amazing job keeping positive but you're human. It's TOUGH what you live every day. And it's so true what you said about it being harder to cope with news when you feel unwell. I know I get depressed when I have my "off" days and I don't have anywhere near the complications you do so I'm not surprised the smile falters sometimes. Big gentle hugs to both of you from across the pond xoxo
Oh darling! I'm so sorry that you had such a frustrating day from a medical point of view. Just know that all of us of all faiths are cheering for you and praying to Hashem to grant you the healing and respite that you need. And we're cheering Peter & Ollie on too xxxxxxxxxxxxx
So many prayers going out to you both. I hope the lord lays his hand on Mary and on you as well Peter. God bless.
