Chile…I tripped on the sidewalk and fell at 30 years old and I can STILL recall the shock and disorientation. I can’t imagine falling 10 ft. in the dark. I thank God that she is well.
Say a word!!!!! I just told one of my customers today that at 32 I make sure to not fall. We may look younger than we are. But the internals are f’d up. We don’t have the same food or ways of the older generations. Chile I won’t be riding a bike after 40 I tell u that!!!!
Right whew im in my 40 ,Fell a few years ago ,And had to have knee surgery. Drs thought my knee was broken. I'm so extra careful with me now, Going into year 43. Thanking God daily
That stood out to me also. Making me truly evaluate MY life. I am a caregiver to others and not so much to myself. I’ve got to make some changes…before it’s too late.
@@simplyme7711 this, too is my story. We put everyone before ourselves and the same ppl will suck the life from you. Be a blessing to yourself, before you're a blessing to others.
I am a Kenyan living in Texas. Am so proud of my country Kenya and more so to the doctors in Nairobi and subordinate staff who took care of this great entertaining woman. We thank God for her comeback!
Yes! Thank you ! For so beautiful Said God bless us 🙏 all ! The Doctors were awesome they were not there just because she had Money they were God's Angeles including Staff to Lift Jennifer up and take care of Jennifer well and they did very much in deed Thank you! What a True Testimony And a life Experience, Jennifer Is a very Strong Woman With dedication! and Strong will Power! I love you Jennifer! And We love you!

He bless those that Blesses others Keep up show us Love Jennifer ❤️ We love you ! And Thank You ! FOR KEEPING ME HAPPY WHEN I SEE YOU ON TV! THANK YOU ! ALSO Robin Robert's For your Classy and Beautiful interview of Ms Jennifer Lewis!
Wow!! 65 and she survived that fall and all those surgeries. Glory be to God for keeping her with us and to make it to 67 to tell the story. She looks absolutely stunning by the way ❤.
Robin is wonderful & I have deep respect for her and her work. She took up where Diane Sawyer and Barbara Walters left off. Robin is as trustworthy as they were.
say what...and those children who die of horrible deaths, those whom suffer horrible pain, disease....those souls living on the streets in cardboard boxes, garbage bags for shoes no food, starving..."god" didn't cover them, huh. Give me a break.
Get up!!! I’ve been drowning in depression. This touched my soul. Especially when she said “if there’s pain, let me feel it…..so I can fix it.” I’m so glad you got up!!! Ms Lewis, laughter is medicine for the soul. Thank you for sharing your story. Your testimony is on time for my life’s test. I’m getting up!!!!
@kristalwalker1972, I am so happy for you. I will keep you in my prayers so that you stay up. Should you need encouragement in any moment, watch this again.
What an emotional interview. Thank you Robin, you did an exceptional job. And I am so grateful that Ms. Lewis survived, is ready to thrive and took the time to share with us, as only she could, her story, the depth of her pain with wit and humor and grace. May God continue to bless them both, and the entire Good Morning America team, the doctors and the kind women who braided her hair in Nairobi. 🙏🏽
There wasn't a better journalist or human being to cover this story than Ms. Robin Roberts. Ms. Jennifer Lewis is such a Vibrant and beyond Charismatic Goddess!! So glad she didnt let this triumph take her shine!!! ✨💜
"Your body is broken. You need to be fixed." I have chills. The fact that she can sit there and speak to us is a miracle. Whew. Ms. Lewis makes a good point about taking care of your body. My mother had back and knee surgery in her late 60s and early 70s and she recovered so quickly because she was so fit. She exercises daily and lifts weight several times a week, even in her 70s. Doing so really made a difference. Oh, how I wish Ms. Lewis well! She still has so much to do and discover here. I am so grateful that she is optimistic and driven. May she be supernaturally healed!
What a deep comment! It really resonated with me in terms of my health and getting enough exercise. If I didn't change the way I ate, I would not be here. I made the neccessary adjustments. I feel so much better.
God has angels all around us. This is similar to my story. I was in a roll over car accident and ejected from the car even though I had a seat belt on. We dont realize how short and precious life is and how we take it for granted when we can get up from bed and not need help. This is such an amazing story ❤ I am 6 years from my accident and I never take anything for granted anymore and I am so thankful everyday for just waking up and being able to get out of bed without a wheelchair and walker. This year I started with a personal trainer and doing yoga. I need to take care of this body that God gave me another chance in. Such an amazing testimony
I stubbled on this story and was like WHILE...glad she is healing. Not sure what her religious beliefs are but I pray if she has not been baptized in the name of Jesus and filled with his precious Holy Spirit that she ask him to direct her to a church where she can be so she can get up in heaven. May God continue to bless you Ms. Lewis
ITS A LITTLE MIRACLE FOR ME TO SEE ON A TV NEWS ABOUT JENNIFERS ACCIDENT. I AM A FEMALE 83 YEARS OLD. I HAVE HAD 5 FALLS IN THE PAST 4 YEARS BUT LIKE JENNIFER I REFUSED TO STAY DOWN. DID WHAT I HAD TO DO TO GET BACK UP AND WALK AGAIN. I HAVE TO TAKE IT SLOW AND EASY AND WILL CONTINUE TO L8VE WITH SOME PAIN. MY DAILY THERAPY IS PLAYING THE PIANO. I AM A PROFESIONAL ACCORDION MUSICIAN AND HAVE BEEN ENTERTAINING SINCE I WAS 12 YEARS OLD. LOST MY HUSBAND 43 YEARS AGO AND HAD TO RAISE AND SURVIVE TO TAKE CARE OF 4 CHILDREN. WATCHING AND HEARING JENNIFERS ACCOUNT OF HER DETERMINATION TO LIVE AND OVERCOME THE INJURIES GIVES ME THE STRENTH TO KEEP GOING AND LAUGH AND ENJOY EACH DAY. GOD BLESS YOU JENNIFER AND KEEP GETTING BACK UP. FROM TERRIE IN BETHLEHEM PA. 😊❤❤
My daughter was ejected in a roll over car accident 6 yrs ago and had similar fractures in her pelvis and has similar hardware in her body. I'm happy Ms. Lewis is recovering. My daughter completely recovered and is doing well.
15 years ago when i was 11 years old i was in a roll over accident as well. I was ejected from the vehicle and had a broken pelvis, fractured skull, bruised face, black eye and eye swollen shut. Oh and some scars from it. I healed completely in the name of Jesus, i did not need any surgeries.❤❤❤
Those Kenyan women doing auntie’s hair almost made me cry. They showed her so much humanity in that small act. As black women, we know how important our hair is to us and those women were giving her back the little bit of dignity they could in that situation.
May the GREATEST ONE bless you in health, love, peace, and JOY 🙏🏻All the nurses and doctors helping this treasure! You, who worked the graveyard shift or 3 am walk thrus, you who saved her sanity with your compassion and kindness. Africans are truly amazing beings! I don’t have to be there to know; I’m an empath truly gifted. You SAVED her! Doctors Without Borders are phenomenal as well! Blessings to all🙏🏻❤️
She has always been a favorite of mine. As I sit here recuperating from a broken ankle, Jenifer gives me hope and her precious energy literally jumps off the screen and into our hearts. Love her!!
Jennifer Lewis is a walking Miracle ! So happy she made it out of that horrifying incident. I was on the edge of my seat watching this! She has such a way of telling a story! I felt like I was right there! I laughed, cried and was in aw of what she endured! God was definitely with her. It could've turned out so much worse!! Keep being amazing Jennifer! You look as fabulous and vivacious as ever!❤
I just love Auntie Jennifer. This breaks my heart but I’m so grateful for all the people that were there to help her. So grateful that God spared her life. Hopefully they fix that balcony so no one else gets hurt. My God
Wow what a testimony from an extraordinary woman. I cried, I laughed, and rejoiced in her healing. "You take care of yourself before you try to give the world something." Thank you Jennifer ❤️. 👑💄💋
Oh Lord!! THANK YOU for this amazing interview!! THIS WOMAN IS A NATIONAL TREASURE!! LOVE, LIGHT and HEALING ENERGY to the beautiful Ms. Lewis!! Her story is an absolute inspiration!!❤❤❤❤
In Lupita Nyong'os speech when she won the Oscars a decade ago "It doesn't escape me for a moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's" The mention of Nairobi Kenya 🇰🇪and a health system that works and its kind people being showcased to the world should give Africans and especially Sub-saharan Africans the confidence that yes we are good enough and we can do it and become a global hub thats highly sorted after for all the right reasons. My thoughts and love are with you Ma'am Jennifer. May God bless you with longevity and good health because you are a blessing to your generation ❤️
Jennifer my golden auntie. I have cried cried so much because everybody know that I am she and she is I. My favorite mother, auntie I love for her movies and shows. She saved my life many times growing up watching her and listening to her speeches. She needs a show of her own
How can you not love this women! She is a class act. Beauty and talent like a lioness!!! Love you Jennifer!! Thank your for perhaps unknowingly touching my soul!! You got up! Sadly many people don’t!! Can’t wait for your new book!
In November I hit a brick wall head on.. I broke both ankles, completely shattered the right with an open fracture. I had an external fixture for a few months. I had to move in with my daughter, used a bedside toilet and was bedridden. I just got the clearing to put weight on the right leg. God is good!! I only had ankle injuries. Before this I was super independent, and a huge introvert that didn’t leave the house much. I’m an accountant that would only leave my office to use the restroom. Life changed!!! I have pins and screws in my ankles but I’m starting to walk.. and will be walking moving and leaving the house more.. life changed.
Praise the Most High. May you continue to recover and thrive. Many won't acknowledge your comment bc it's not singing the praises of Jenifer. While we ought be thankful for her being preserved, YOU gave the Healer the glory. That,to me, is a true testimony! Bless you!
You were in Good Hands. The Dr who put a Titanium Bar in My Broken Neck was from Kenya. He looked at me & said “I do good work” He did. I know he had the most beautiful skin I have ever seen. I swear it shined like Copper. from the time he enter the hallway you could hear him greet everyone. A Miracle Man.
she is so full of the holly spirt she walked through the fire and showed you need only you to pick yourself up no one can do it but you such a beautiful soul a great interview
Ms. Jennifer survived because she was flexible. So inspirational: "Get up and move your body." Thank GOD for her covering and total healing. I'm believing him for just that. 🙏🏽
(Tears) I’m so glad Auntie survived to tell her story. I understood what she meant when she said she didn’t want to tell her family. She didn’t want them worried and there’s also some pride in there, as being the most successful or strongest in one’s family- we don’t like our family to see us down because we’re so used to them needing us, not the other way around.
What a story! Nothing but the grace and mercy of God to see her through this. God bless her. Thank you for showing us that it’s possible to get back up Ms. Jennifer Lewis. 💕🙏🏾
What an absolute miracle!! I love stories like these because it just goes to show that if it’s not your time to go, no matter what happens to you, you’ll make it through.
I’m so happy to see this story being shared. I had a similar injury that happened in 2022 and I’m still rehabbing. I had to relearn how to walk and if I’d given up cuz it was easier to do so if still be partially paralyzed and using a walker . I thank god for my guardian angels and the ability to feel and walk again cuz at one point I don’t think I would. I still have a way to go but each day is a bit better than the day before. Thanks so much for doing this interview.
So glad she's still with us and still has full mobility. Shout out to her irrepressible spirit/strength, her friend traveling with her who called for help and the outstanding medical team. She's such an icon and a lovely person.
NO YOU WILL NOT FEEL THE PAIN THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!! THE LORD IS OUR HEALER. ISAIAH 53:5 SAYS "BY HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED, THEREFORE YOU ARE HEALED AND THE PAIN IS GOING AWAY. TYJ❤
@j49bd189 I love Jesús and everything, but it has been 32 years, and it's not going anywhere, appeantly. Her point was that she was grateful to be alive regardless of the pain and horror that she went through. Amen! 🙏🏽
@@ramibasioni8624 WITHOUT FAITH IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD. IT WILL BE 29 YEARS DECEMBER 1995 SINCE GOD HEALED ME OF AGGRESSIVE STAGE 3 CANCER AND BY HIS GRACE & MERCY IT HAS NOT RETURNED AND BY FAITH I WILL REMAIN CANCER AND PAIN FREE TIL HE BRINGS ME TO HEAVEN. I WILL PRAY THAT GOD HEAL YOU. TYJ❤️
@@trulyrblessedUnlikely, the CDC just removed their c0 vid isolation guidelines and most people won't mask anymore, y'all just open-mouth cough, flailing like unmanned firehoses 🙃 Btw there's no treatment for long c0 vid.
I understand. I have fallen mentally as well back in 2015. 2020 just made it worst. I had a hysterectomy and that definitely added to my depression. I'm currently on leave now. All I can say is take it one day at a time and get help if you're not already. Hugs.
@sandrawaweru No doubt! Without the emergency surgery done IN Africa she knows she wouldn’t be here. She just wanted to go home to be near her family & friends. And thankfully she’s thriving now. A major win for EVERYONE 🙌🏼🙌🏼💖💖
OMG, Jennifer is my favorite actor of all time. I love her spirit, personality. I’m so happy she’s going to be healed. This story brought me to tears. This is a movie.
The lessons and wisdom on display here transcends Aunties journey of recovery, it’s a true gospel on how to as she put it “get up” and keep living. Love this interview
7:01 this is frightening. The human body is more fragile than it appears. 12:57 case in point. What’s underneath is so much more important than the surface. I’m in tears watching this. It’s a MIRACLE that she can walk and talk today. 16:42 oh yes. No matter the number of years - it’s all short and each moment is more precious than we realize in the moment. 17:10 wow, this statement is profound: “if there’s pain let me feel it so I can fix it.” 17:37 I see the goodness of God throughout these clips of her recovery process. 19:20 lesson received. This needs to be instilled from an elementary level. We only get one body. Our number one priority should be to care for it at all times and not neglect it in the name of pursuing everything else first 20:15 amen “get up” 22:21 life is still the greatest gift 🙏❤️
Wow I love this lady. I'm retired, I do the volunteer thing, was going to a church trying to do, do, do and lately surrounded by lose of good folks and seeing friends suffering.that damned cancer....I'm still here and thinking, I'm done Lord, give them my time......68, never married, no kids, taught for years, I'm cool, I traveled, I'm grateful, the world is getting crazy, hey let's get on with this, then I see Jenifer's story which screams....DAMN IT! SHE IS NOT DONE YET AND NEITHER ARE YOU, SO JUST SIT TIGHT AND SHUT UP.....Thank you Jen for sharing. I can not stand American medicine and I'm so glad if it had to happen, you were in the hands of people who cared about you and you weren't treated like a pop this pill experiment. I'm sure one of your goals is to kick up high again......WOW.....GOD IS REAL AND THAT ROAR WAS THE LION TELLING THE OTHER ANIMALS TO BACK OFF! AT THE END OF PRINCE'S CONCERTS THE LIGHTS WOULD GO OUT AND HE'D SAY.......I'M NOT DONE YET!!! Thank you Jesus for sparing Ms. Lewis 2.0 and may she keep kicking. This is the single life!!!!!
@purpledancerbmw5279 Yes the 💜 one did!! I went to his concerts (way too young lol) & we were told even if the lights come up and they start cleaning DONT LEAVE. And sure enough Prince would come back out!!! Whatever our personal stories we just gotta hold on a little longer. It’ll be alright. We’re HERE NOW and thankfully so is Aunti Jenifer 💜✨💜✨💜
So happy to see our auntie in good health and spirit. This was a true testament to resilience. I’m glad she also mentioned her therapy being a useful tool. ❤️
Chile…I tripped on the sidewalk and fell at 30 years old and I can STILL recall the shock and disorientation. I can’t imagine falling 10 ft. in the dark. I thank God that she is well.
Aman
Especially with wild animals around! That’s pretty dangerous and scary!
10ft in the dark in the serengeti
Say a word!!!!! I just told one of my customers today that at 32 I make sure to not fall. We may look younger than we are. But the internals are f’d up. We don’t have the same food or ways of the older generations. Chile I won’t be riding a bike after 40 I tell u that!!!!
Right whew im in my 40 ,Fell a few years ago ,And had to have knee surgery. Drs thought my knee was broken. I'm so extra careful with me now, Going into year 43. Thanking God daily
Jennifer is such a story teller. Her voice. Her dramatics. She is just brilliant
19:22 “You take care of YOURSELF, BEFORE you try to give the world something.” Jenifer Lewis on living and taking care of yourself.
That stood out to me also. Making me truly evaluate MY life. I am a caregiver to others and not so much to myself. I’ve got to make some changes…before it’s too late.
That hit me too.
That was deep
@@simplyme7711 this, too is my story. We put everyone before ourselves and the same ppl will suck the life from you. Be a blessing to yourself, before you're a blessing to others.
So true...
We applaud the doctors and team at Agakhan University Hospital - Nairobi, Kenya. They handled Jenny with great care and professionalism.
Thank you God for sparing Jenifer Lewis and allowing her to share her story.
I pray she starts giving Him the glory for it.
In Jesus name, Amen 🙏🏻 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's not over until God says it's over.
Yes, she is indeed a walking miracle. And to still have that sense of humor about it.

May she acknowledge that He not her strength, brought her through.
God’s Grace and Touch.

Had NO ideal this happened to Jenifer. Always admired her from afar. I'm glad she's still with us b/c we need her humor.
I hadn't heard, but thanks be to God she is still here!
Ms. Robin is such a gifted, trustworthy journalist. This was an excellent interview and Ms. Lewis is an amazing storyteller.
Robin’s interview with Regina King, is one of the best too.
@@Backpack16Yes it was.
Robin is wonderful & I have deep respect for her and her work. She took up where Diane Sawyer and Barbara Walters left off. Robin is as trustworthy as they were.

I met her at a Sephora in Ft. Lauderdale. She is an absolute beautiful soul. So kind and loving. I'm so grateful she's alive and doing better.
Wow 😮 I’m glad there are nice places to shop in Florida, so many horrible crimes being committed there 😢
Wow… this brought me to tears.. it’s such a blessing to survive that fall. Thank God for covering her!
Me too @rayrock90 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Amen!!

“The King ate the Queen” now Jennifer… 😂 Thank you God for protecting this blessing.

Now look I’m so grateful she is alright, it wasn’t funny but it was funny when she said that I was done 😂

One of the best in the game! Great actress! There's only a few like her. Brilliant, strong, and deep. Love her!
Sending her tons of love from Africa...Uganda❤
How can you not love this women! She is a class act. Beauty and talent like a lioness!!! Love you Jennifer!! Thank your for perhaps unknowingly touching my soul!! You got up! Sadly many people don’t!! Can’t wait for your new book!
WOW the fact that she was able to keep this quiet. Bless you Jenifer, thanks for sharing this incredible story. Continued blessings to you.
This was heart wrenching at first, but what a victorious ending❤❤❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yeah !!!
Never knew I feel this way for a person never met in Person!!!
So Proudly Kenyan 🇰🇪 ❤❤❤ Love You Queen Jennifer Lewis
In November I hit a brick wall head on.. I broke both ankles, completely shattered the right with an open fracture. I had an external fixture for a few months. I had to move in with my daughter, used a bedside toilet and was bedridden.
I just got the clearing to put weight on the right leg.
God is good!! I only had ankle injuries.
Before this I was super independent, and a huge introvert that didn’t leave the house much. I’m an accountant that would only leave my office to use the restroom.
Life changed!!! I have pins and screws in my ankles but I’m starting to walk.. and will be walking moving and leaving the house more.. life changed.
Praise the Most High. May you continue to recover and thrive. Many won't acknowledge your comment bc it's not singing the praises of Jenifer. While we ought be thankful for her being preserved, YOU gave the Healer the glory. That,to me, is a true testimony! Bless you!
@@RestorationEdenMinistries thank you!! 🙏🏾 I’m so blessed
May God bless you & keep you! Thank Him for your daughter! God has been Good to you both!
Bless you and your continued healing❤
She is an inspiration. May God continue to protect her and grant her many more years of joy and laughter 🙏
She reminds me so much of my mother....Thank you God for watching over her ❤❤❤
You were in Good Hands. The Dr who put a Titanium Bar in My Broken Neck was from Kenya. He looked at me & said “I do good work” He did. I know he had the most beautiful skin I have ever seen. I swear it shined like Copper. from the time he enter the hallway you could hear him greet everyone. A Miracle Man.
I cried through the whole interview! Shes a strong lady, so full of life.....Love you Jennifer!!!!❤
God bless you auntie. An Angel watched over you with that fall❤speedy recovery. We love you much❤
she is so full of the holly spirt she walked through the fire and showed you need only you to pick yourself up no one can do it but you such a beautiful soul a great interview
Ms. Jennifer survived because she was flexible. So inspirational: "Get up and move your body." Thank GOD for her covering and total healing. I'm believing him for just that. 🙏🏽
I am so glad she survived and is able to tell the story such a wonderful storyteller
Amazing! You are a force of inspiration and hope. Thanks for sharing.
Oscar winning recounting. She almost cried!
This interview was so moving! My soul needed this ❤
Thank you Jennifer. You tell the world. "After the fall" there is hope and there is life.❤❤❤❤
Amen 🙏
Yes… I needed to hear this personally. ❤️🩹🙏🏾😢 Wishing Ms. Lewis, the absolute best in her continual healing, along with recovery.❤️🩹
(Tears) I’m so glad Auntie survived to tell her story. I understood what she meant when she said she didn’t want to tell her family. She didn’t want them worried and there’s also some pride in there, as being the most successful or strongest in one’s family- we don’t like our family to see us down because we’re so used to them needing us, not the other way around.
What a story! Nothing but the grace and mercy of God to see her through this. God bless her. Thank you for showing us that it’s possible to get back up Ms. Jennifer Lewis. 💕🙏🏾
What an absolute miracle!! I love stories like these because it just goes to show that if it’s not your time to go, no matter what happens to you, you’ll make it through.
I love how Robin interview with such empathy ❤ God Bless Jennifer and Robin for this amazing moment
I’m so happy to see this story being shared. I had a similar injury that happened in 2022 and I’m still rehabbing. I had to relearn how to walk and if I’d given up cuz it was easier to do so if still be partially paralyzed and using a walker . I thank god for my guardian angels and the ability to feel and walk again cuz at one point I don’t think I would. I still have a way to go but each day is a bit better than the day before. Thanks so much for doing this interview.
I just came from watching the mini segment...i had to come to the full interview.....
.....all i can say is powerful omg
So glad she's still with us and still has full mobility. Shout out to her irrepressible spirit/strength, her friend traveling with her who called for help and the outstanding medical team. She's such an icon and a lovely person.
" I'm walking, but I'm still in pain, and I know I will feel this for the rest of my life " ❤
NO YOU WILL NOT FEEL THE PAIN THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!! THE LORD IS OUR HEALER. ISAIAH 53:5 SAYS "BY HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED, THEREFORE YOU ARE HEALED AND THE PAIN IS GOING AWAY. TYJ❤
@j49bd189 I love Jesús and everything, but it has been 32 years, and it's not going anywhere, appeantly. Her point was that she was grateful to be alive regardless of the pain and horror that she went through. Amen! 🙏🏽
🙏🏿
@@ramibasioni8624 WITHOUT FAITH IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD. IT WILL BE 29 YEARS DECEMBER 1995 SINCE GOD HEALED ME OF AGGRESSIVE STAGE 3 CANCER AND BY HIS GRACE & MERCY IT HAS NOT RETURNED AND BY FAITH I WILL REMAIN CANCER AND PAIN FREE TIL HE BRINGS ME TO HEAVEN. I WILL PRAY THAT GOD HEAL YOU. TYJ❤️
Both are such an inspiration ❤
"Laugh when nothing is funny" 😢❤
Good humor, cause she said the animals talk about her..WOW!..😂
She's courage and grace personified! I'm so very glad she's well despite everything she went through! ❤
“I married nature. Nature is my husband.” Love it!
GOD CREATED NATURE SO YOUR HUSBAND IS THE LORD OUR GOD❤
That was a very profound thing she said. ❤
I hate when they try to describe God as other things like nature or the universe NO say it right his name is GOD 👏🏾
God's not happy with that statement. God wants to reign, be worshipped & loved above creation.
That was foolish, very new agey and hurtful to the Lord. Pray for Jennifer. We love you Jennifer!
I love this woman!!! I'm so glad she is still a light shining in this world! When she says, "Baby," it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. ❤
Nothing but excellence from Robyn! So glad to have you back Ms. Lewis!
I'm so thankful to God you're still here with us Queen.
I fell mentally March 2020 so I’ve been frozen in time and I haven’t been able to get back up. Thank you. I needed this.❤
One day at a time and you will recover it time ❤
@@trulyrblessedUnlikely, the CDC just removed their c0 vid isolation guidelines and most people won't mask anymore, y'all just open-mouth cough, flailing like unmanned firehoses 🙃 Btw there's no treatment for long c0 vid.
@@StrawmnMcPersonwhat did that have to do with the the comment?
I understand. I have fallen mentally as well back in 2015. 2020 just made it worst. I had a hysterectomy and that definitely added to my depression. I'm currently on leave now. All I can say is take it one day at a time and get help if you're not already. Hugs.
I sincerely appreciate the encouragement. 🙏🏽
This is a harrowing story of fear, courage and God’s grace. 😇 Blessings to her for coming through to get back to life. 🙏🏾💔🥰
Love from Nairobi 🇰🇪
Agakhan Nairobi has the best doctors in Africa, you would have healed well even in Nairobi. Good to see you doing well.
@sandrawaweru No doubt! Without the emergency surgery done IN Africa she knows she wouldn’t be here. She just wanted to go home to be near her family & friends. And thankfully she’s thriving now. A major win for EVERYONE 🙌🏼🙌🏼💖💖
It takes forever for nerve endings to heal. Jenifer Lewis is the woman. Wise. She broke, mended. May peace be upon her and long her days!
OMG, Jennifer is my favorite actor of all time. I love her spirit, personality. I’m so happy she’s going to be healed. This story brought me to tears. This is a movie.
The lessons and wisdom on display here transcends Aunties journey of recovery, it’s a true gospel on how to as she put it “get up” and keep living. Love this interview
This is so heartbreaking I’m glad she healed 🙌🏾🙏🏾❤️
7:01 this is frightening. The human body is more fragile than it appears.
12:57 case in point. What’s underneath is so much more important than the surface. I’m in tears watching this. It’s a MIRACLE that she can walk and talk today.
16:42 oh yes. No matter the number of years - it’s all short and each moment is more precious than we realize in the moment.
17:10 wow, this statement is profound: “if there’s pain let me feel it so I can fix it.”
17:37 I see the goodness of God throughout these clips of her recovery process.
19:20 lesson received. This needs to be instilled from an elementary level. We only get one body. Our number one priority should be to care for it at all times and not neglect it in the name of pursuing everything else first
20:15 amen “get up”
22:21 life is still the greatest gift 🙏❤️
I’ve watched it many,many times. I never tire of her and I have so much love for her. She speaks to my soul.
Wow I love this lady. I'm retired, I do the volunteer thing, was going to a church trying to do, do, do and lately surrounded by lose of good folks and seeing friends suffering.that damned cancer....I'm still here and thinking, I'm done Lord, give them my time......68, never married, no kids, taught for years, I'm cool, I traveled, I'm grateful, the world is getting crazy, hey let's get on with this, then I see Jenifer's story which screams....DAMN IT! SHE IS NOT DONE YET AND NEITHER ARE YOU, SO JUST SIT TIGHT AND SHUT UP.....Thank you Jen for sharing. I can not stand American medicine and I'm so glad if it had to happen, you were in the hands of people who cared about you and you weren't treated like a pop this pill experiment. I'm sure one of your goals is to kick up high again......WOW.....GOD IS REAL AND THAT ROAR WAS THE LION TELLING THE OTHER ANIMALS TO BACK OFF! AT THE END OF PRINCE'S CONCERTS THE LIGHTS WOULD GO OUT AND HE'D SAY.......I'M NOT DONE YET!!! Thank you Jesus for sparing Ms. Lewis 2.0 and may she keep kicking. This is the single life!!!!!
@purpledancerbmw5279 Yes the 💜 one did!! I went to his concerts (way too young lol) & we were told even if the lights come up and they start cleaning DONT LEAVE. And sure enough Prince would come back out!!! Whatever our personal stories we just gotta hold on a little longer. It’ll be alright. We’re HERE NOW and thankfully so is Aunti Jenifer 💜✨💜✨💜
I love Jennifer Lewis she inspire me in so many ways in happy for her healing God continue to bless you
So happy to see our auntie in good health and spirit. This was a true testament to resilience. I’m glad she also mentioned her therapy being a useful tool. ❤️
I would love to sit and have a conversation with Jenny. She seems so down to earth, bless her soul! Gosh, I love her! 💗💗💗
Wow. She is really brings the drama to this story. Feels like a sermon 🙌
This is a true testimony of Jenifer Lewis!
That's how Jennifer talks.
@@ayshlaila3975 I love it
It's her testimony
I’m getting up!! Thank you Ms. Lewis for your inspiration. You have no idea how much your testimony has blessed me💜
Wow! A guardian angel…wow! So glad you’re still with us….amazing!
