Glad you are finally out of hospital Elliot!! Hoping you have a speedy recovery!! ❤️‍🩹

[@1966buttons]

I am so sorry you went through this xxx

[@barbaraeckenfels5624]

Glad you are home Elliot. Sending hugs and prayers your way for a full recovery.❤

[@SeaBear777]

I'm so glad you're okay, Elliot. What a terrible experience to go through, you poor dear. Sending hugs your way and wishing you all the best. 🤗💐😽

[@Jillyflower7]

So pleased you are home and on the mend. Much love to you both, rest and take care xx

[@sythompson9331]

It was unfortunate but it was nice to hear Matt and get to know him a bit more. He is delightful

[@SonyaM7]

So pleased to see you home and on the mend Elliot! I know exactly how difficult it can be when you’re in hospital for an extended period of time…. I had to spend just over 3 weeks in hospital during the last couple of weeks of my cancer treatment. There’s nothing like finally getting home to snuggle with your furbabies and sleep in your own bed uninterrupted! Make sure you listen to your body and rest! Don’t go overdoing things just because you’re home! 🥰

[@angelaking2799]

God Bless you Elliot🙏💚❤ I felt the same when I got sick, lost jobs and they NHS removed my kidney😱 at 58 my 1st ever encounter of Surgery! 2 days after I took myself for a short walk out, 6 weeks after I was back to 12 hr night shifts, because Ive worked in healthcare it was so important for ME to get better. Its in our darkest moments we are strongest, its survival mode. Well done Elliot onwards and upwards❤ Im almost 64 now still working 12 hr night shifts and healthy albeit with 1 kidney💚🙏

[@thingswithdan6]

Hi Elliot, sending you lots of healing energy. Your story has really shocked me to be honest. So glad you are home and recovering in peace. Wishing you a full and speedy recovery. Take care 💙🤍🩵

[@jleonard196527]

I'm so glad you are now home and on the mend!! Big HUGS to you!

[@dreid1127]

I'm so glad you're out of hospital and on the mend. You can see you've lost a lot of weight. I hope you get well soon! Being in hospitable can be a traumatic experience, especially if the staff are difficult. It can take just one member of staff to make it miserable. Take care Elliot. I enjoy you and Matt's videos.❤‍🩹.

[@belindawallace5203]

Good to see you’re home and on the road to recovery. Take good care of yourself 🤗

[@leannesgarden823]

Welcome back! We missed you! ❤

[@pamelap7841]

So glad to hear you are doing well and back home. I hope you feel better and better each day.

[@lisah9954]

Dear Elliot , Glad you are home back with Matt and the kitties , rest up and get well soon 😊

[@emilyforster6989]

So pleased your home and healing. Big hugs xx

[@aroyaliota]

OMgosh Elliott, how devastating. The distress & uncertainty of your health & NHS journey. I’ve been following you for some time, and leave comments to your regulars. On this however, I really want to wish you a speedy recovery. Virtual hug from Australia 🇦🇺

[@sharonwindram6833]

I totally agree with everything you said about staff in the NHS Elliot. The majority of people are very loyal to their jobs & the patients that they are treating & looking after & they are angels, but there are a few who are in the wrong profession. I remember back in 2019 when my father was in a residential/care home & was paying at the time £4,000 a month, i overheard a member of staff refer to my father as a 'nuisance' 😢 I moved him into a wonderful nursing home not long after that, who were able to give him the attention, care, love & support that he needed during the last 7 months of his life bless him. These members of staff are called 'carers', but not all are 'caring' people & are obviously in the wrong job. I'm so glad that you are recovering Elliot & back home with your beloved Matt, cats & your loving families. Thank you so much for taking the time to post your vlog. Take care & bye for now xxxx

[@dawntudor4280]

Aww bless you Elliot, what a time you've had. Glad to hear you're on the mend slowly and your back with your beloved Matt. Take care, lots of love to you both 🎉 ❤ xxx

[@Charlotte-fs2gs]

I'm so so sorry you have been very poorly, your so brave Elliot and strong. It's lovely to hear you had the best support from Matt and your family. I'm sure they are very proud of you. Take it easy and look after yourself and don't feel pressured with social media your health is more important. I'm so glad you are getting better. Sending you both love and hugs x

[@bellaD7]

Goodness. What a time you’ve had Elliot. Have been checking for you to pop up again as was concerned as to what was making you look so poorly. I never slept in hospital each time I was in to have my babies. I also took a fan as am a hot body 😁 So pleased you are back and on the road to recovery. You, Matt and the kitties have been missed. 😊

[@geraldinefay7058]

So sorry for everything you've had to go through Elliott. It's so good to see you back home again. Thanks so much for the update. Wishing you a full recovery

[@azuregiant9258]

My word Elliot. I’m so glad you are home and on the mend. I know we don’t know each other, but strangely, caring so much for the welfare of a fellow human being whose videos actually really put me in a place of peace and calm. I was hospitalised in my early 20’s. Actually I was sectioned. At the time I was undiagnosed autistic, but had wrongfully been assessed as a suicide risk and had no choice but to go into hospital. It’s so scary being in that place where you’re totally not in control of your own life, surrounded by not very well people and the horrible clinical environment. I will say, going through trials such as these really awaken inner areas of perspective, spirituality (not necessarily religious) and resets the senses. Nothing is taken for granted. I look forward to seeing you bounce back in these following weeks. Also, how awesome is Matt?! What a keeper.

[@carolyndubois1353]

Take care. We love you.

[@dawnceven9343]

I’m so thankful that you’re on the mend, although you had quite the ordeal! Being home is the best recovery place as I agree there is no rest to be had in the hospital! ❤ Take it slow, drinks lots of tea and feel the good vibes being sent to you from all of us

[@cathynuytten798]

Oh, goodness, Elliot ! I held my breath the entire time watching this video. I am so sorry you’ve had to go through all of this! Sometimes the cure makes one feel worse than the disease! Please take it easy and get plenty of rest. Your body NEEDS the rest including a good night ‘s rest. Don’t worry about having to put off projects until a later date. Be sure to eat well. Good food will help with your recovery as well. Get well soon! You are loved!

[@kimfoster3254]

So glad to see you and your on the mend. You have been missed. ❤

[@francoisleduc4613]

Hey Elliot! So happy you are on your way to full recovery! I want to mention one important thing my doctor told me, since I also am a big fan of tea: Tea does dry the body up and we must not forget to drink a good quantity of regular water daily. Talk soon!

[@marybarlow1829]

I’m so glad you are on the road to recovery. I’ve been thinking about you and praying for your healing

[@elizabethbailey7216]

Continuing sending hugs and prayers to you and yours, Elliot! We ❤ you!

[@sandygranger1573]

I hate that you have had to be in the hospital for so long. I hope that you are feeling better. On the other hand, I have loved this video because Matt has done an excellent job. He really does need to do a channel. I love when he takes the lead. Hugs and prayers.

[@karensheridan2761]

Oh Elliot you've been through a lot. So glad to see you at home with Matt and the kitties.Take care sending ❤ love

[@jacquiemullett201]

There's nothing better than getting back home after a hospital stay because you definitely don't sleep whilst there. Wishing you continued healing.

[@annkarpinskireddog]

Been worrying about you glad you could do this vlog thankyou❤

[@katet2696]

Feel better! So good to see you!

[@christinebrown5741]

[@BabsLongfellow]

Oh my goodness I was away for a little over a week and had no idea you were suffering this way! I’m wishing you a speedy recovery and that you can get off the anabiotics as soon as possible I am so sorry you have gone through this. Much love ❤

[@annalisef]

Elliot I’m so glad you are home and finally on the mend. It sounds like quite the ordeal and I’m very grateful you are doing better. Matt, you were a rock star. I love your comment about the mince pies and how you did your best to make content for Elliot. Love to you both.

[@deborahgrant4930]

You are loved and so very blessed Elliot! Very thankful you will continue to get well and back to 100%. You were very much missed bit we will be right here waiting for you.

[@heathergrainger4718]

SO good to see and hear from you again. Especially from your lovely home. I agree, hospitals aren't a good place for rest and healing. Especially if you are put in a 4 bed ward.

[@kathyeaton9769]

I relieved you are on the mend and home. Please take care 💕

[@beckyherlinger7883]

I'm so glad you're at home and on the mend. Thank you for sharing your story; you've been through so much. ❤

[@SueGreaves-w7z]

Hope you feel better soon Elliott. I can relate to everything you said .I two was in hospital for 2 weeks with autoimune anaemia. Xx☘

[@juliep.3660]

Awe so glad you are home and on the road to recovery, thanks for all the details and update, nice to hear it from a true experience, both you and Matt are awesome and thank you Matt for the vlogging you did and for keeping Elliot topped up with tea 😊. Take it easy and sending hugs your way

So pleased to see you back. What a horrendous time you've had hopefully you'll have a full recovery love and warm hugs to you and Matt 💕

[@TeresaLyon-dz3fz]

Bless you both ❤ so sorry 😔 sending lots of positive energy Elliot, look after yourself xx

[@DianeMeadows-h9r]

So are so right about healing better at home. When my husband suffered a major stroke, he was in hospital for 5 weeks, and I had to argue with the doctor & insist that I was taking my husband home there and then. And I did get my way. The healing began at home. So very pleased to see you back home, Elliot.

[@rossandrachaelmcclelland550]

Have missed you Elliot! I felt emotional watching this. Glad you are home and feeling better xx

[@donnajarvis9542]

It’s so great to see & know you are finally out of hospital and doing better.

So sorry you are ill Elliot. I am glad that you are on the mend. Take it easy. Don't rush to get out there. You need rest and relaxation. A little tip. If you have any kind of mucus producing issue it is best to avoid dairy. Stay strong. I will say a prayer or two for you.

[@virnataijeronyager7741]

Oh Elliott! It’s so wonderful to see you again and to hear you are on the mend. I totally agree with you on the matter of realizing what’s important in life when your own mortality becomes a question. Been there myself. I sincerely hope you have the best Christmas ever this year!!!!

[@cardiffguy2007]

Hi boys, so pleased to hear that Elliot is now home and recovering after your health scare. I can reiterate everything you've said about having a stint in hospital, my health scare was back in 2017, and I was hospitalised for some six weeks, so I can agree with all that you've said about the experience . You expressed it incredibly well. Take things easy you guys; recovery both physically and mentally can take a time. Be kind to each other which undoubtedly you will. Enjoy your takeaways, and get well soon.

[@christine9667]

So nice to see you smiling again

[@debramaloney9334]
