So glad you are safe, alive, and well! Your health and family are the most important. So sorry to hear about the sudden and unfortunate change in your situation in China. I love all of your content and you and your family have been a friend of China, showing the world what China is really like, countering the daily negative narratives on China from Western media and politicians. You're also a very talented content creator and presenter and storyteller. I'll stick around the what's next in your and your family's life's adventure. Wishing you and your lovely family all the best and I continue to look forward to your upcoming videos. Keep 'em coming but at a comfortable pace. We understand you've got a lot going on, especially now with plans to move back to Oklahoma to begin a new chapter. At least you have family there! Hope you and your family keep China close to your heart, with warm memories, and with potential visits back in the future.
A new chapter in your guy's lives. You've done a great thing, shown China in a different light. You've definitely made an impact. Good luck with everything.
Sorry to hear about your accident and departure! Your videos have a unique vibe and I really like your choice of BGM, too. As an overseas Shanghai-nese I have never seen Oklahoma and am very excited to see it through your lens. Hope things can better soon for everyone and we can share your happiness in your videos wherever you are :)
I started watching looooooong before you guys moved to China and loved your content then. I've enjoyed following along in your China journey and will also enjoy seeing what you guys get up to when you're back in the states. So glad you were able to get the care you needed. Such a scary situation.
Oh my goodness. You have been through so much and I’m so glad you’re okay! Wishing you and your family all the best on this new chapter. I am really interested to see how life will be returning to the US. Sending lots of love❤
Glad to see that you are healthy again. New beginnings bring new hope and opportunities. Stay positive. I definitely am looking forward to your US and Book vlogs 💐
Hey Melissa, please remember that you've also got many Chinese followers who would love to see you and your family life back to the States. Btw, you look perfect and so happy that you are safe after all these happened. Please do share!
Hi Melissa, thanks for sharing and the update. I am sorry to hear about your husband’s job. Hope the transition of moving back to US goes smoothly and you recover ok! All the best!❤ from Sydney
So sorry that you're leaving China. Glad you seem fully recovered from your surgery. I've enjoyed watching your videos and your stories. Keep them coming from America. Best wishes to you and your family.
Wow, that’s a lot, good and bad that you have experienced in the last several months. It is assuring though you have survived the accident and are recovering well. But it is sad to hear you are leaving China. I have really enjoyed your videos, a different angle and vibe about China. Best of luck to you and your family!
Happy you have recovered but sad to see you leave China. All the best to you and your family. It is harder to find another teaching job mid year but it wouldn’t hurt to try since you are still in Shanghai with a nice apartment and all. Either way, hope things work well for you and your family! Wouldn’t mind to see content from OKC.
Melissa i love your vlogs nomatter where you live,i love when you share your travels,your everyday,your thoughts and feelings,your family, the ups and downs... We will be here,take your time,you make videos when you feel it is the right time,dont feel pressured to follow a certain scedule!!! You just take care of yourself and your beautiful family of yours💖💞🫂🫖🥧🍵☕🕯📓🖋📚✝♾So with you guys!!! Sending the warmest of hugs your way
I am so sad about what happened but am glad that you are well! And you look well! I had wondered what had happened to you and your vlog but I'm glad that it's still 'going' even though you're leaving China. I had feared that because your vlog, more than many others, showed that family life in China, even for expats, is just...normal. And happy. I am sure your happy life will continue in the US, even in these interesting times.
Hi Melissa...sorry about what happened but what matters is that you are fine. The rest of the issues can be resolved with a bit of time. Yeah I will probably not be following you until you get back to China one day which I think you will and hope you will. Take care and best of health and good luck with your resettling .
So sorry for your news. Hope you're healing well, that was so scary. I'm here for the duration, I love your vlogs. I'm interested to see you transitioning back to America, as a Brit it'll be fascinating. All the very best to you all.❤
Oh my. Undercurrents are awful. I am so sorry to hear about what you went through. That is very scary!! Your son is a hero! So sorry to hear about the job. Wow. I didn't see that happening either. I hope that you will be able to do well back home. I am sure that will be a culture shock for you after the time you have spent in China. I will always support your channel and you.
That’s HUGE, TG you’re doing well now. Ofcourse, I’ll stick around, take care, all the best transitioning back to the US. Been there, moving back from Asia. Sometimes life takes you to different places, but never anything you can’t handle. At least in my humble opinion, big HUGS for you and your family ❤️ from the Netherlands.
I am very happy to see that your videos have always been of high quality, and I like your family very much. You are very friendly and friends of the Chinese people. Even if you return to your hometown, I will always subscribe to you. I want to see the rich life in the United States. As a Chinese, I hope you can visit my country again .❤❤🎉🎉
Keep the videos coming! Don't feel down about moving back to Oklahoma. It's obviously not Shanghai, but it's not terrible . You should move to a super small town to get back that true Okie feeling :). I'm sure that this won't be the end of you family's global travels. It will just give you the chance to look forward to the next adventure. glad your all safe and that you were able to overcome your neck injury.
what a pity, it shocked me to hear you are leaving.. but I believe it's fairly easy to find a new job with decent pay in International schools in China, especially in Shanghai.
i have been wondering what happened to you. sorry to hear about your husband's job in shanghai, but glad to know that you are ok. i look forward to knowing more about Oklahoma. when I was in graduate school, one of the professors was from Oklahoma and he mentioned how wonderful Oklahoma was. so yes, I am very interested to know more about Oklahoma. love from canada.
🙏🙏🙏 To me, you are one of the best bloggers about Shanghai, China. Here is my best wishes to you and your family for your future endeavor in Oklahoma and beyond.
Please ! I would very much love to sée and hear about your ideas, questions and actions while starting a New life from zero. And I'm sure living Once again in the USA is going to be interesting to Say the least...😬 I can't wait to meet again for another holidays - no near death experience needed ! 😘
Hi Melissa. I'm Ailin, wife of Jose the Physics teacher. I'm so sorry about what happened to you. My husband always told me that Brandon is a hard worker and an exceptional person. I don't think anyone can believe this. God always has the best plans for us, trust in him. I wish you all the best.
I would take vitamin d3 100,000 iu daily if I were you, that will reduce the pain and strength the disc, my mom have lower back pain and same disc issue and she have been taking 100,000 iu D3 daily since September.
Thank you for sharing great content over the past year~ I have been following your channel in a while, and now I have graduated and working in Shanghai too HAHA~ To be honest, the economic has not been as good as a few years ago, almost every companies are laying off employees in China. I understand your shock. Although I also have a small expectation that your husband can find a good job in China again so that we could continue following your content about living in Shanghai or other place in China~ But no matter what, life must continue well. Excellent people shall always lead a colorful lives wherever they go!💪🏻I believe that your family can quickly return to normal after returning to the America. Also Im a little curious about life in the America, so I will keep following your channel~ Anyway, keep moving! 生活总得一往无前，加油朋友们！
why not find another teaching jobs. Yeah, you probably not going to find one that pays as much, but I'm sure you working as well won't downgrade the life quality that much. Also, you shouldn't just look for one in Shanghai. Yes, Shanghai is the most expensive and comfortable city in China, but other cities are not too bad either. I think working in a 3rd tier city is better than somewhere in Oklahoma.
I'm glad to hear that you're finally back to living in your home country, because while living in China you seem to have faced a lot of difficulties such as (language, mingling with local people, the food, the situation, weather conditions, air quality, health, etc), so maybe You are not fit to live in China.
Sorry to hear that.but most important is that you’re alive and your family still with you.back to america should be a good thing for your family.or maybe your husband can find an other job in shanghai.there is more job opportunities for foreigners.keep positive.

i'm so sorry, wish you best of luck.
Regarding the air quality, I guess that's one major side effect of being the World's factory.
Hi Renee, why did he loose his job at the school? Is this a problem at C at the moment?
I would take vitamin d3 100,000 iu daily if I were you, that will reduce the pain and strength the disc, my mom have lower back pain and same disc issue and she have been taking 100,000 iu D3 daily since September.

Can't you find another teaching job with another school?

Can't your husband find a new job in China so you don't have to move?
you are excused because you almost died 😊
Sorry to hear that.but most important is that you’re alive and your family still with you.back to america should be a good thing for your family.or maybe your husband can find an other job in shanghai.there is more job opportunities for foreigners.keep positive.
Wish you all the best!
