Hey! Welcome to the first home vlog of the year! We update you on quite a few things in this one, it's been a heavy few months for us both but we are keeping positive and feel so grateful for all your love and support. Thank you so much! Brogan & Benji xx

[@ShonaCblog]

You’ve got this Benji! I had open heart surgery at 24 years old, 18 months ago, it will be the toughest thing you ever go through but with the right support around you, which you clearly have, you will get through it. The first 2 weeks are the hardest, but after that you really start to feel a difference and start to feel like yourself again. My advice, lots of pillows to prop you up at night, sleeping was the most difficult part for me. Hold a cushion to your chest to cough, drive home etc, take snacks you like into hospital with you as getting your appetite back can be tricky and hospital food will not bring it back haha. I look back now on that time in my life and I can’t quite believe it happened, at the time it feels like everything is going at slow motion, but soon enough months will have passed. And Brogan, support for you is just as important, don’t forget to give yourself some time for self care too! Your relationship is going to get you both through this time of your lives xxx

[@MermaidElle5]

You've got this Benji! My son was born with a CHD and he had open heart surgery at 9 days old! The advances in surgeries these days is amazing! Hopefully you have a speedy recovery, and can get back to 'normal' as quickly as possible! ♥

2022 was a year of crying for me too due to being in a relationship that wasn’t good so absolutely here for a happier year & less crying in 2023😅 wishing you & your family all the health & happiness this year🥰

[@alexisbk9576]

Hoping that the surgery makes Benji feel better and Praying for strength for both of you. My husband is a melanoma survivor and he now sees the dermatologist every 3 months for a full body check. He wears prescribed mineral sunscreen everywhere, and per his dermatologist even applies it before he leaves work for the drive home. He also wears the clothing and hat brand his dermatologist recommended, Coolibar. (Any UPF 50+ brand while outdoors). Hold onto each other and sweet Bonnie girl too! And thank you for sharing skin cancer awareness! Much love from Florida ♥️

Thank you for a lovely home vlog!

[@stellaasmrandrews985]

Southampton General is one of the best hospitals round. My brother had a major operation there. He had a tumour in his oesophagus. His operation was about 5 to 6 hours. His surgeon was fantastic. You wouldn't get any better even if you went private. I've had a couple of operations as well, and they amazes me just how great they are. Love your home vlog, seeing Bonnie again. xx

[@juliecarriker9950]

It's lovely seeing you and Benji back home!!! 😍😍😍 (I do love seeing your travel vlogs also!) I'm sure that Bonnie is happy to have you back!!! 👍👍👍 Brogan, I'm glad they've caught the skin cancer and it's being taken care of!!! Benji, my thoughts and love are with you as you await your surgery! 💗💗💗 I've never had heart surgery, but I've had other types of surgeries, so I know a little of what you're facing. I know you'll both be relieved once it's over and the recovery process is underway!!! Just take care of each other and we'll all be waiting whenever you have things to share. Continued love and health to both of you from across the pond!!! 💜💜💜

[@alicejames4401]

Positive thoughts to Benji and yourself, it's good that you recognise the need for self help and taking time for you. On a different note I had a mole removed from my leg a few years ago, despite always being a sunscreen obsessive. Best wishes xx

[@dancingheart6224]

When you said "I remember when I used to dream about having a dishwasher," I felt that. I am a college student currently dreaming of having one. I know I'm gonna say those words when I move in, and that feeling of less chores and more free time is gonna be so amazing!
