[@oneshoan]

People who have never had health problems don’t understand. Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@romanypirates]

Thank you for watching Shoan 😊😊

[@jacks2222]

[@romanypirates]

Thank you ☺️ X

[@LittleLillysTravels]

You are a true warrior, Emma. Get better soon xxx

[@romanypirates]

Thank you ☺️ x

[@lindacrozier8488]

So brave, well done with your recovery x x

[@romanypirates]

Thank you ☺️ ♥️♥️

[@ThemeParkBazza]

We hope you are well on the way to recovery ❤❤. Thank you for sharing your real lives with us, make us proud to be Northern every vlog of yours we watch . Such great , kind and tough people

[@romanypirates]

Thank you so much guys Emma is doing ok, she’s getting better very slowly but still in the wheelchair, you’re pretty much watching us real time now 😊😊😊

[@ThemeParkBazza]

@@romanypirates Give her a big hug from us x. You might consider a vlog about disabled access, and the lack of. I know when I broke my ankle and was on crutches I really appreciated just how poor some access was.

[@pilpelet100]

Wow! That was a bit of a shocker! But thanks so much for keeping us up to date. It's amazing Reese that you were even able to vlog this when Emma was going through it all. I agree with you Emma about wheelchairs and disabled problems generally. All facilities for the disabled should be designed using a disabled person as a planner - that goes for parking and toilets - both in general public places and in hospitals and clinics. Education about how to treat wheelchair bound people should be compulsory! There's actually a name for it. It's called "Does He Take Sugar" Syndrome. Anyway, I hope that you're now doing much better and look forward to seeing more of your life. Hugs being sent across around 5,000 miles to you.

[@romanypirates]

Thanks so much for watching, yeah it’s been hard to vlog it as it felt so weird to be filming in this situation but as we said it’s the reality of what we’re facing and Emma was insisting she wanted to do it 😊😊 Emma is improving very slowly but getting there 😊 thank you so much ☺️

[@valyd45]

It was hard to watch but now that it’s over and been a while, I’m sure you are up and around doing the van life. It was good that you had somewhere to recover. Be well the both of you.

[@romanypirates]

No this is now real time so Emma is still recovering. We’ve been so lucky that we’ve got the cottage to come back to where she can recover 😊 Emma is itching to get back to the van though

[@valyd45]

@@romanypirates Emma I hope You’re feeling better and I had thought your videos were lagging in time.

[@trishaswisha]

[@romanypirates]

Thanks so much Trisha. Yeah in really does need highlighting doesn’t it. Thanks so much and hope you get your van fixed soon 😊😊😊

[@samcook532]

Och Emma sending you lots of love ,it's only a wee pause being laid up ,I really appreciate you both showing a difficult time .bless you both .I understand completely was in a wheelchair for six months and really really appreciate you showing how vulnerable and complex going around in a wheelchair is .we need to talk about these things .hope you're mending beautifully .I did too and thankful that I have freedom to walk .big hugs xxxx

[@romanypirates]

Thanks so much 😊 yeah it really needs highlighting doesn’t it how difficult it can be to get around in the chair. Simple things like going into a shop can be a task. Glad you made a recovery Sam 😊😊😊X

[@wincharles1195]

It’s amazing that you say this I’m having back surgery on the 23rd and I’m already in a wheelchair due to my disability and it’s interesting. What people think is accessible when it’s really not.

[@romanypirates]

Yeah there needs to be far more awareness made about how difficult access is for people. ☺️ we hope your surgery goes ok for you. Sending positive vibes ☺️☺️X

Thanks so much Baz much appreciated 😊😊

[@SianRussell]

Hi both, as a new subscriber I've not got to know you well yet and although I could see your pain after surgery it was heartwarming to see how well Daisy and of course Reese looked after you. The joy in your face when you 1st got out in the van was a pleasure to see and I hope your recovery is going well. Take care ❤

[@romanypirates]

Thanks so much 😊😊 itching to get back out in the van now, we’ve got so many epic travels planned but one step at a time for now obviously 😊😊 Thank you so much for subscribing that’s much appreciated. X

[@romanypirates]

Hey Lisa, Reese here 😊 thanks so much for watching. Emma is doing ok she’s making small improvements every day bless her but itching to get back out in the van. But yeah we’ve been very lucky that we’ve had the cottage so she can recover properly. Thanks so much Lisa 😊 X

[@lw7240]

Bless you darling! You’re such a good husband Reece. Give her plenty of love Lisa xxx ❤❤❤

[@lorraineowen7978]

Oh bless your heart, I could see the pain in your face. I wish you a quick recovery and back in the van doing what you enjoy. Your so right about difficult access into and around shops they are so frustrating. My mum is in a wheelchair and my goodness it is so hard in so many ways just to get her out of the house and enjoy doing a bit of shopping. You take good care 😊💐

[@romanypirates]

Yeah so difficult isn’t it, they really needs to be better access around places, I mean who puts cobbles at the entrance to a disabled parking bay it’s ridiculous. Thanks so much for watching 😊😊

[@vittoriodangiolino2850]

Lots of love to you dear ❤

[@romanypirates]

Thank you ☺️ X

[@TMWeddle]

Your hospital experience would have been much different in the U.S., for even minor surgeries they take you out in a wheelchair. My wife has had two major back surgeries and her back is now not causing any pain or problems. Having a great doctor is important. You are young and strong. You keep fighting.

[@romanypirates]

Yeah I’ve heard the health care in the states is amazing, it’s not great here at the moment to be honest unfortunately 😞😞

[@TMWeddle]

But you have NHS and here we have to pay for insurance and then you pay more depending upon how much your insurance covers.

[@NickCourtney-hr3zk]

Get well soon the three of you are good together

[@romanypirates]

Thanks so much 😊😊 we’re all itching to be back where we belong on the road but one step at a time 😊😊😊

[@ROY-COLLEY]

God Dam they should have given her wheel chair to get her to your van. If Emma had fallen they would be open to a insurance claim. While she is in the hospital they are Responsible for her safety and wellbeing.

[@romanypirates]

So bad isn’t it. Couldn’t believe it. It’s getting ridiculous

[@garrystacey7018]

Hope you are on the mend get well soon.Thinking of both 💖 Thanks for sharing 👍
