🏥 HOSPITAL VICTORY & DEFEAT 😷 (12.14.16)

[@mkcelleri]

"That Number does not define how much life you can live". I thank God every day for your life. You're an incredible brave woman.

[@AliceCullen151]

You know what guys. Today I woke up at 7:30 and at first I was like... oh, I'm tired... and don't want to go to the university. And then.... suddenly, I thought "Anna, Mary and Peter are out there doing their best, you should do it to. You are healthy and you have to make the best of the day". I immediately got up and went for a quick run near the beach. Thank you guys! You are making the difference!

[@LiFeeIsSMusicC]

Anna Nowak so true my friend! those people are absulutely inspirational.. we need to stop being weak and lazy when difficulties obstruct our way. And those people who are trying to get through the most dangerous form of problems, those associated with health, are the greatest inspiration for everyone!

[@kikiinthegarden]

The interaction with the employees about bingo gave me so much life! It is amazing they have things like this for their patients. I am so happy you can have fun and have joy through a rough time like this ❤💋❤💋 keep pushing Mary your a warrior 😘

[@lizeylovable]

And I love that despite being an adult, she is allowed to do activities that bring her joy and make the hospital easier as it's a children's hospital.

[@112musician]

Mary you have such a beautiful voice and great pitch!

[@rybo510]

I know! She does!

[@amberhall1288]

Oh my goodness, yes she does! Beautiful voice!

[@sneepsnorp1404]

You make being young with multiple chronic illnesses bearable. Stay strong !

[@marieked]

Yay for bingo, pizza, and singing with the hospital staff on the phone! Keep up the hard work, praying for you Mary.

[@MsRespect247]

I wish hospitals near me did intertainment like hospital bingo or singing. that looks like it's so much fun. plus it gets patients distracted from the challenge their going through that put them in the hospital in the first place! fun fun fun.

[@allyncollins359]

Hey Mary, I've got 20 lbs that I don't need, you're welcome to have it!! And I'll send it with free shipping!! Woot Woot

[@jillybean6]

Allyn Collins I have about 30 from gaining the last couple years since I was stuck in the hospital for 5 months off and on

[@amberpowers1034]

I love the bingo part! It's the little things like that, that people do to make such a positive happy moment for others:)

[@erinuber2881]

With all the tough things happening, I'm so glad you got to play bingo...and you won! I'm curious. If you win, do you also get a small prize, or is there just the satisfaction of knowing you won? Either way, it's great fun. What a clever idea! I hope Peter is back and you've all been reunited by now. You're in my thoughts and prayers, all three of you.

[@MaeveTaylor]

I'm going into Boston Childrens Hospital next week, so I'll make sure to play clown bingo!

[@thefreylife]

Oh good!!!

[@leerwesen]

I hope by next week you won't be playing against Mary... or if so, you both can win!

[@sarahvanorden670]

Mary, you're my hero! I'm so proud of you for eating pizza and your scandishake, excersizing through the hospital stays! DuPont never did bingo but that looked like fun. Such a bummer that your numbers are down. I'm always praying for you 💗

[@sarahvanorden670]

Your singing voice is very good! When I do my work out (Just Dance) most people wouldn't expect that I consider singing part of my workout, but it is a workout for my asthmatic lungs. My pulmonologist was very glad I excersize my lungs while excersizing my body :)

[@thefreylife]

Thank you Sarah, thanks for going on this journey with us!

[@allielove7787]

I am a patient at Johns Hopkins Children's Center for my CHD. We still have BINGO on Wednesdays. I will have clinic on a Wednesday this year so I will be there on a BINGO day! It's so much fun!

[@rybo510]

So much empathy for you Mary. I am so glad I subscribed. As a 44 year OLD lady you have alot to teach the world. Inspiring.

[@djlawlz4041]

I absolutely love how Boston Children’s likes too take care of their patient’s happiness and sanity while in the hospital, especially for people like you who may often be admitted for longer durations. The Bingo thing is really really cool and even singing with him on the TV. It would’ve freaked me out just a bit hearing myself on the TV.

[@starrymidnight828]

The way you live your life has captured my heart and I carry that spirit, determination, shine and grace as a reminder. I also hold onto the fact that tears and rough days are just as much a part of pushing through. The Lord shines through you in incredible ways. 💜

[@jilldonaldson4488]

Soo excited tonight because my mom surprised me with the elephant print and the laugh everyday decal for my birthday tomorrow!

[@donnapenn9284]

Calories! A walk with Ollie to PFTs, more store orders, BINGO!! Yay! Love you, all three.

[@CatRyan2022]

you guys are couple goals.

[@fromcraft2cure]

Hang in there Mary! You are an example of how to keep pressing forward even when you hit a barrier. I am praying for a breakthrough to come soon!!

[@lauragadille3384]

So happy to see Mary smiling

[@gamerish2729]

I watch you guys every day and I want to say you guys are an inspiration to me. I live with a disability that makes it hard to do daily tasks like going to the store or bus. and I FINALLY got my very own service dog. he's coming tommorw and seeing you and Ollie and the bond makes me smile and I am excited to have that myself with my service dog! you are amazing and my best wishes go to you two.

[@estebritt9555]

You're so encouraging, Mary! I love it so much. ❤️

[@SuperBlackCat1313]

Lol I so luv ya Mary you are so witty and fun even on your worst days.You are so so right a number is just a number.You wait and see things will improve.And hopefully you can be home for Christmas.

[@crazysauce2]

+The Frey Life hello

[@emilyelkins7625]

You guys are my favorite youtubers, you are so positive it helps me be happy when I'm in and out of the hospitals. Thanks so much. You inspire me. I'll be watch your videos everyday!!!!

[@chloexelyse]

I wish so badly that I could have as much positivity and optimism as you. You're such an inspiration to so many. Keep being you! Has a lung transplant come into consideration at this point? I remember you saying that you weren't sick enough the last time I heard it discussed. Has anything changed? Hope you feel better soon! xx

[@MissUnderstood-yi1zm]

Mary, you look wonderful today! I'm rooting for you to keep improving & hoping you're able to go home soon.

[@jonesc222]

Mary, you are so strong and inspiring. You are SO determined and don't ever give up. I am glad you have a very good team, husband, and Dog! I will keep you in my prayers and hopefully you feel a little better.

[@penelopepolinsneemeyer4757]

It's great to see that you were in better spirits, darling xxxxx

[@jessicas2379]

Omg that's so freaking cool that the hospital does that!!!! I was smiling during the whole scene

[@shortii12341]

Juliana played it when she was in the hosptial the last time. She won and she was so excited. Sadly, she lost her battle to cancer about a month ago.

[@marieked]

I followed her journey for years. She fought hard 8 times, but sadly her body just could not fight any longer. I remember seeing the video of her playing hospital bingo.

[@sammy431]

I introduced a friend of mine to your channel (and Peter's) when they were questioning their faith and trying to find their religious path again - they are now about 11/2 years into your vlogs and you've inspired them so much. I just thought I'd share - this makes 5 people I've introduced into the Frey Life family. Hopefully they as much joy and support here as I do. Stay strong

[@ThisBubblyJESUSFreak]

Mary, you have a beautiful voice!! I'm so glad you could play Bingo! You're going through a rough time right now, but keep holding on! It won't always be this way! Praying for you! "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."-Philippians 4:13

[@anasrantsnbeauty]

Two and a half weeks in the same room in the hospital. You're amazing, I would be a mess. So stir crazy. You are so motivated. Very inspirational!!!! 💕

[@chronicbeauty6531]

Your strength is remarkable! You are so brave and stay so positive! I'm still new to coughing up blood and it scares me so bad each time and I never sleep when I do. I love watching your videos and it keeps me going. Today, I lost my 15 year old sister in a freak accident; she fell and hit her head on the tub and couldn't be resuscitated. She lives with my dad and step mom in Georgia and I don't talk to them much so I feel guilty about it. I'm still in shock while also trying to stay strong CF wise. I admire you so much!

[@lexilong8843]

I have a friend with cf and she is doing so good! Stay strong Mary! ❤️

[@FloridaGrandma]

You are so amazing. Never letting the bad keep you down for long. I'm in a patch of "I just give up" right now, wishing this was just done already. (my stuff, not you). I'm giving in to self pity and going to bed at 5 pm. Pain is awful and I just can't do anymore today. Lots of ❤💚💜💙💛 sent your way Mary, Peter and Ollie. Keep in fighting Mary. in a way, you are fighting for all of us too. God bless.

[@macyadams9566]

Lynn Sending prayers!!! 🙏🏻❤️

[@travismarshallfan8843]

The excitement of winning Bingo! Love your contagious smile!

[@xdronxdronx]

They should have bingo and fun stuff at every hospital!! Hope you feel better Mary.

[@emmaroy3923]

I've been going through a rough patch with my lungs too, Mary

[@rybo510]

Frey community. I am guilty of the same thing, however, we all have to remember what is important in life. When I complain about not having enough food in the house and I eat every day, there are people that are so hungry they have to dig through trash or beg for help. When I complain the house is too chilly, there are people under bridges in tents. The temperatures tonight are supposed to be 10 below zero with 50 mile an hour winds. While I sit here at my computer, my house is warm. If I could I would feed every hungry person in the world. You can do alot without money. Last year we donated hundreds of nittens and hats to kids that didnt have any. We also donated 4 HUGE bags of NICE clothes and thick blankets to people in Providence RI. These people live every day under bridges. I don't care how they got there. They are still my fellow humans. If you see someone begging for money, don't assume EVERY person wants it for alcohol or drugs. I always give food or go shopping to get a few necesities. In my life I have been homeless. I dont do drugs or drink alcohol. I lived in my car with my kids. Only because I have Epilepsy. My landlord sold the house and I had no place to go. Remember those who need our help.

[@kaylagibson2025]

ive had 26 SURGERIES in my 18yrs of life & im expecting my hopefully last one in the beginning of 2017 !!!

[@Joy.Elizabeth]

Kayla Gibson that's great!! 💪🙌

[@MDSMITH9]

You are a inspiration. I find it hard having a chronic illness but your outlook and attitude just is so encouraging. Peter is like my husband a lot and I do not know what I would do with out my husband as his is my Rock. We are most blessed!

[@96xNatasha]

You guys are seriously so inspiring. When I feel like something small is getting me down, I watch your videos and feel I have such a better perspective in life. You guys are beautiful people. Always stay strong.

[@hy3397]

Mary, you are so amazing, so cute, so inspiring, so courageous. So glad I have you two in our lives

[@harleylorraine]

omg my husband and I danced to the exact same song in our wedding! oh Mary, you mean the world to me! you're so positive and such a beautiful person! you make my life feel brighter every day. God bless you! you have been in my thoughts and prayers lately. I pray that everyday from now, you're health gets better and better, and that you have less down days like yesterday. xoxoxoxox stay strong beautiful girl!

[@katiescarlett1955]

Two days in the hospital made me be a bit crazed....you look pretty dang good for two and half weeks. Takes a strong person for that. You are. Keep your chin up.

[@kimberlynichols6637]

hello Mary I am Kim from Texas I have been watching ya over a year. Mary I have to say how proud I am of you you are an inspiration to all of us cfers. you are beautiful inside and out. may god bless you and stay strong! I am 41 with cf I do my treatments 3-4 times a day.

[@alex_danceskpop]

Love you guys! You are so amazing, inspiring, and positive. Keep fighting and never stop trusting that God is standing with you through the storm.

[@brato7428]

woohoo!! go Mary & Peter!!!! just ordered a painting print :)

[@brittsherrycovington7163]

You two never fail to make my day! Thanks for being so positive!

[@randyllarson]

Mary keep your chin up you will get through this. Your one of the strongest people I know!! I get through each day knowing I can watch your videos for inspiration! God Bless You and Peter! !

[@blackeyedbutterfly]

Mary your bingo playing and singing made my day!😉 good job on the shakes! i know how difficult it can be to force yourself to do and how rotten it is to feel that uncomfortably full!!!

[@jackelyndorado8752]

You are amazing Mary! I love your positive and bright attitude despite your health condition. I'm a sick young adult and really appreciate you

[@myrafox5132]

Glad that you are having a better day. I agree with Peter, your little body has been through a lot these past few days.

[@Hooney1004]

mary keep ya head up sister. everyone of us get defeated every single day. but that gets us even stronger. i will pray for your wellbeing. keep staying positive.

[@chargingourfaith8462]

Coconut extract, almond extract and cocoa extract are supposed to taste like an almond joy, orange extract to make it taste like an orangecicle. Pintrest protein shake add ins and there are a ton of recipes! Maybe you can jazz it up so its not just boring vanilla :) I think I have seen in previous videos you like Chai?? Its kind of has a lot of ingredients but . . . . tea, vanilla extract, cinnamon, cardamom and cloves. Keep staying strong!!

[@mattroche4816]

that is awesome, I grew up in and out of hospitals, I never stayed stayed in the hospital long enough enough to play Hospital bingo until May of 2008, I spent a month at St Louis Children Hospital and I won 2 prizes while I spent a month in there, it was awesome and a first by actually getting to know the nurses on the floor that I was on

[@lilycreek7101]

God bless you, Mary! 🏩🎈💝

[@onlyonerebecca]

Your bingo session made me smile and laugh today! So lovely to see. I wish you get better soon

[@fralinsandfriends]

Yes, do take everything into consideration. It's a process of healing the best you can. You can still optimize your life by playing bingo and singing Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

[@cclaussen]

Yay for you for winning Bingo!!!

[@marycummings7616]

You have a beautiful singing voice! Happy that you won Bingo!!

[@TysMommy609]

Mary and Peter seriously need to record some songs and make them available for purchase/download so we can always have The Frey Life on the go!

[@leeleah8167]

Jay Bird yes yes would be great.

[@mariamonahan3284]

What a positive person you are you encourage me to do better in my life I'm in foster care and it can be hard and you're here blogs encourage me to stay strong

[@chloethiboldeaux8073]

I'm so jealous of you winning bingo! I try every time I'm in the hospital( a lot unfortunately). It's those little things that make the hospital manageable!! Love you ❤️❤️

[@jennifer18247]

can I send Mary some flowers in the hospital ? you guys are always bringing smiles to our faces everyday I would love to brighten Mary's day just a little.

[@fralinsandfriends]

That is so good for your lungs and breathing. Singing a line all the way through means you're controlling your breathing, taking in more air, it's all good.

[@denessabowman1104]

Hi, I have been following you now for a while. You are the most upbeat couple I have ever seen. God bless you both. I too have a service dog, that is how I found you postings. You have an amazing outlook on live and it is clear that you are so much in love. It is very hard for me some days to keep my chin up because of pain, but I get on line and look at the two of you and it helps me believe that things can get better. Thank you for your wonderful information on service dogs. Again God bless you both.

[@JavaFirst]

We were at the movie Rogue One today and someone had a service dog just like Ollie but that dog's hair was much longer. Mary you are an encouragement as are you Peter.

[@cl4za]

The whole way through this video I caught myself smiling like crazy 🙊💜

[@annemarie3802]

Clarezy May Me too. Their videos always make me smile.. their joy is infectious.

[@evanyeh5509]

Mary!

[@Laurana07]

Great singing. I loved that you played bingo. And i never noticed how nice Peters eyes are before. That's all you could see at the end of the video.

[@christienbbrooks7334]

I'm pulling for you!! 💪💪🏋️‍♀️

[@vickiem.6096]

Congratulations Mary on your Bingo win! I wish you could go down to the coffee shop just to see something different. God bless you, Peter and Ollie. I'm sending warm hugs from MI. 💞 ❤ 🙏 😘

[@lindalopez2826]

Mary you are so inspiring! I have CRPS . Your videos help me get through many a tough day. Thank you (Peter and Ollie too!)

[@bdegirt4111]

This bingo is so cute warm wishes and hugs stay strong Mary❤❤❤

[@Kimmeranne]

That tv singing gig made me smile BIG. You guys are so awesome and Mary you seem to doing well. Wish i could give you my lungs for day and night and give you A break. Xoxoxo🎀💕

[@mieliboo1]

When I was little we didn't have bingo in hospital. We did have a lady on the radio who would send riddles or math problems over the radio and when you solved the problem you called them and got a treat from a book. My favourite was the Star Wars ice lollies

[@2listening1]

10:59 the candy canes on the wall look like a festive Christmas hair bow in your hair, Mary! Even though they're on the wall haha

[@interludeadventures508]

Honestly, I think you don't need to worry too much about your PFTs. If I was in the hospital, not moving away from my bed more than a few steps I wouldn't be in great shape. When I first got out of the hospital after surgery, I could hardly walk all the way to the car. I was just physically drained. Once you're home, walking the stairs a few times a day, cooking your own meals, maybe going into town, your energy will pick up and hopefully so will your PFTs. I am rooting for you!!! Still sending healing and no more blood!

[@kkmarie9650]

Mary singing during bingo made me smile! so funny!

[@belindavanowen1990]

Idea...leave your Christmas tree up and have everyone send you comments on where they live and get someone to print states with first name,last initial and hang on the tree...or get a map with pins...interesting visual of the Frey life family 🤗. Maybe your tecky hubby could come up with a technical way to do the same idea. Love your blogs of good/bad life days.

[@laurapiacentini9431]

You've got this Mary we are rooting for you! 😀💕

[@JKCJFM]

Watching your videos is one of the highlights of my day. Thanks

[@alexanderschultz9803]

I remember playing kids bingo at Hopkins!!!! Loved it haha, it made my hospital visit much more fun

[@leahseik3554]

this made me smile so much.

[@nictracks7252]

Aw Mary! Sending you lots of hugs. ♡♡♡

[@ChronicallyCassidy]

You sang Rudolph so nicely! Even though you were cracking up during it!

[@susieque1118]

Sleep well sweet Mary.

[@traceydennis7151]

hang in there you're doing so well mary. Sending love to all three of you xxx

[@cassityler6682]

I'm super sick right now and watching your vlog makes me happy! Merry Christmas 🎅🏻🎄☃️🎁❄️🎉

[@dennamcdonough8338]

Great day Mary, Peter and Ollie too.

[@kassieharrell3858]

Mary you made me laugh so hard when you said "I'm holding you guys in my left hand, that's my port side." it's so ironic that on a boat the left side is called the port side! maybe it's not as funny as I thought it was lol oh well! 😂

[@thefreylife]

Oh my goodness! that's how I'll remember which side is the portside :) Thanks

[@burnice3901]

so cute at end. we can just see peters eyes. as always great videos.

[@gkostuck98]

bingo looks like so much fun wish they had that when I was in the hospital, that made my night so cool and funny 😊

[@callabeth258]

Mary do the calorie shakes come in different flavours? Or could you add flavour to make it taste better? I know when people do the weightloss shakes the coffee flavoured and chocolate ones are really popular

[@Irenecrz8Cruz]

yayyy!!! bingo Mary!! much love, God bless you, Peter and Oli😘💖😘💖😘💖

[@Claire8483]

I have to say I love your singing voice Mary :)

[@SoFlyWithMyPies]

You're doing so well! Keep it up girly, good luck and merry Christmas!

[@sarahr.1076]

The hospital bingo is awesome. I've never seen this in a hospital in Germany (but I've never been there longer than a week, so don't know). I would have liked to have played it though.
