Mary's Nebulizer Comparison & Favorites!

[@youonlywish11]

The way Peter says "honey" when he sees the bloom!! That was so sweet!

[@jessicasmith9220]

Hello! The white med cup is a BAN misty. Breath actuated nebulizer. The reason it feels stronger is because it is set to only deliver during inhalation. The other setting is continuous. 😄 I love your videos, thank you!! ( I’m a respiratory therapist)

[@ilovejackington]

Exactly. I was going to say this.

[@eej1983able]

"That's a lot of coffee first thing in the morning!" --Richard Gilmore lolol when Peter clarified it was his 2nd cup

[@shotbyacamera1269]

I love that you use jars to drink out of. So clever. Wishing you a fantastic day :)

[@mmb529]

The Pulmazyme enzyme is made in a cell line derived from Chinese Hamster ovaries (CHO cells). In 1957, cells from a hamster ovary were convinced to divide indefinitely (not something most cells do) and this cell line is commonly used to produce proteins for medical use because it is very good at making a lot of protein. It's pretty amazing that these cells have been dividing for nearly 70 years!

I use those for my nebulizer for what me and my asthma doctor called my neb treatments. I like them. I have the sidestream as well. I like the Pari LC Sprint neb cups. I take Xopenex through my nebulizer. I take it before activity to try to keep my oxygen levels stable and as needed for my asthma. I have the Pari Vios pro nebulizer. I will need to order more asthma nebulizer supplies. I also just got a rolling hospital table which I was excited to get! I love my little rolling hospital table.

Can’t wait to see a painting of the cactus and cafe shops mascot “blooming cacti” that was gorgeous! An then put that logo on some shirts for summer to go with the celebrate the simple things collection!

[@soniawheeler2409]

I just want to thank you Mary for turning me on to peppers with cream cheese! I love it! Since you’re last video of eating them I’ve graduated to taco seasoning on top also! I’m loving the crunchy pepper and creamy goodness with a hit of tart seasoning and now I’m growing them in my garden! It really is all about the little things that make life better! You two stay awesome and blessed! 💖🇨🇦🤗

[@pandazanda]

Hi Mary and Peter! Today is my birthday and thank you for making the birthday cameo video for me!! I loved it!! Thank you for including Harry and Ollie. Love, Katherine!

And the blooming cactus 😍😍😍😍🌵🌞💛

[@lynnd6305]

I have had cats for over half a century. I get the feeling you don't pay much attention to suggestions and advice but my love of all cats is pushing me forward. Rubbing his bottom on the carpet/rug is often an indication of anal glands needing to be expressed. It is a simple procedure your vet can do in just a couple of minutes.

[@H2SO4Queen]

I have never seen a cat do that but all my cats have always been outside. When you have 100s of people giving advice, it would be impossible to listen to everyone. They are busy enjoying life and I am glad.

[@lynnd6305]

@@H2SO4Queen I want them to enjoy their life. I also want cats to not have unnecessary pain. It may not be his glands. There are several things it might be. A quick trip to the vet is all it takes to find out.

[@jessicah3450]

Our cat was doing this. He had hemorrhoids and was put on a higher fiber food (One of the Royal Canin prescription diets, I already tossed the bag). It's helped him.

[@BeccaDoss]

We literally have that conversation all the time, “This is so normal to say around here, but it’s totally NOT “normal” to most people!” Including things like “My feeding tube’s exploding acid” and “well, today’s medical ship,ent included...” 😂 Great review, it’s always interesting to see the specifics like this-you’ve definitely mastered many tricks of the trade when it comes to this life!💯👍🏼

[@misspepe7416]

I am wondering, who went like: Hamster ovaries! Let's try that!... And it worked 🤔

[@celtic_cait_littlerose_802]

Agreed.

[@imcnagpc2]

First thought: people might be upset if they had to kill the hamster. Just sayin'.

[@mmb529]

Hamsters were being used in labs to study various diseases. Theodore Puck was interested in chromosomes and Chinese hamsters have fewer chromosomes than mice or rats. Not sure how he landed on ovary but he used cells from a hamster ovary in 1957 to establish a cell line (cells that divide continuously) that is now commonly used to make proteins like Pulmazyme.

[@misspepe7416]

@@mmb529 Very interesting! Thank you! 😀

[@jessicah3450]

I think it's the cell cultures in a petri dish, not actual hamsters.

[@emilymitchell7028]

I got the Hoover! So excited, thanks guys!!!

[@Anastasia1794]

Hi, guys! Thank you so much for your vlog! You honestly changed our life! I have a partner with cf. we learned about postural drainage, clapping, vest and lots more from you! It allowed us to get her off oxygen. I watch your vlogs regularly and noticed that you get IV IG on a regular basis. Is this a part off common CF basis therapy in the US or do you get for personal health reasons?

[@penelopepolinsneemeyer4757]

Wowee! Mary that cactus flower is so beautiful!! xxxxxxxxxxx

[@jonki1980]

Love knowing the favourites from Mary and Peter

[@pamelavl2523]

Cats and dogs get booty tickles is why they wipe their bumm on the carpet. It could indicate worms that are tickling their bumm.

[@calico097]

Actually dogs and cats have anal glands and when they booty scoot they are trying to release them because they get uncomfortable when they get full

[@hollyosgerby1901]

calico097 : We know all about the anal gland issue at our house. Our Buffy has them checked regularly by the vet 😿 Thankfully, she doesn’t “ booty scoot” as often as she used to.

[@christine0701]

I love your lemon shorts Mary, those are so cute!

[@ginaneely1147]

Oh, of course we have favorite med supplies! I have favorite syringes and can get pretty cranky when I have to negotiate with the pharmacy staff to get the ones I want

[@lorifox4699]

Awesome sponsor Peter!!! Yes!!

[@billiebluesheepie2907]

IVIG is really expensive to produce because each dose is made from between 1,000 and 10,000 blood donations. My hospital used to love my donations as I always had a really high white blood cell count (I have EDS) and used to mark it specifically to use it to make IVIG! Unfortunately I am not allowed to donate anymore, but I did about 100 donations over a number of years.

[@artastic_23]

That’s awesome! I’ve thought about donating blood, but I don’t know if it would be safe because I have a lot of medical problems. Thank you for donating and helping other people!

[@BGing_Foodie]

@@artastic_23 Definitely something your doctor can help you figure out!

[@jessicah3450]

My hematologist said they also need to match the IVIG specifically to your antibodies, like the drug is made specifically for each patient. I'm sure that makes it very expensive. Another reason to donate plasma if you can! I did it for grocery money in college until I couldn't anymore (bad veins and a hematological condition). I didn't know EDS causes high WBCs, I am trying to get tested because I have most of the symptoms, and late nights reading about my conditions tends to lead me back to it as one of many underlying causes. Thank you for sharing that info ❤️

[@jessicah3450]

@@artastic_23 I was still donating whole blood and plasma while on *a lot* of medications. There are only a few illnesses and hematological conditions that totally blacklist you from donating blood. Sometimes, they break it up into components that are still useful to someone :) Definitely check with your doctor! There is a huge shortage because of the pandemic.

[@ToLoveIsToLive89]

I love that carpet cleaner! Also, where are Peter’s sneakers from? (The ones with the yellow fronts)

[@Jaspurrsmum]

That bloooming cactus is so cool! I've never seen one do that. Then again I've never had one. Booty scoots! My cat does that. Usually because he has something stuck. I feel so bad for him. Been giving him Pumpkin to see if it helps.

[@donnathierjung6266]

I use nebulizers and I didn't know there was different type of the mouth piece. I really like that hoover smartwash pet complete I want to get one also. We have a dog and a cat!

[@NorseButterfly]

Hey Peter! Are you going to use the prickly pear fruit in your next batch of kumbutcha?? Once the flower falls off, that would be a great time to start your kumbutcha. The fruit should be ripe about the same time you're ready to bottle.

[@fksongbird28]

I like that kind neb ( I call them a pipe) too. I got another kind last time that is just open on top. I don't like it as much....but that's the one they offer now.

[@hollyosgerby1901]

Hamster ovaries.....REALLY?? 🐹 Such a beautiful yellow flower blossoming on your cactus. Can’t wait to see future watercolours featuring blooming cacti, Mary! God bless and take care 🤗❤️❤️🙏🏼😘🐕🐱

[@Butterfly-hk8ud]

This is amazing! I love the comparison. I want to try the parre (dark blue) mister. The Phillips one is the one I have and it’s not my favorite.

[@Trekkifulshay]

We were told the salt draws in water to help thin out the mucus to make it easier to cough out which is why we do it with the vest.

[@gypsy2112]

Peter: Booty scoots Me: Hey... be glad you're not dealing with cat fur too!! LOL ;) Also... amazon has some good litter catchers to put in front of the litter box :)

My feeding tube is exploding with acid...Ruh-Roe. 😂🤣😂🤣Thanks for keeping us laughing! 🥰 “Normal, not normal.”😉 P.S LOVE Mary’s pj shorts!💜💜P.S. In my experience with canines, the “booty scoot” can be swelling of their anal glands (sorry, if that offended anyone).

[@MissaLVT]

Usually not swelling of but full anal glands 😊

[@MissaLVT]

@@alli_went_bonkers no problem 😊

[@ForcastingOnawhim]

ATTENTION RE: HARRY. Please take Harry to the vet, it's not normal for a cat to booty scoot unless there's an issue. Cats don't show discomfort like dogs or humans and it takes a lot for them to show any noticeable change in behaviours.

[@MissaLVT]

It's usually just a sign of full anal glands. They're trying to express them themselves by rubbing their booty on the carpet.

[@jessicah3450]

My cat does it when he gets hemorrhoids, he got put on a prescription food and is much better! Cats definitely don't complain until they feel really bad, it's more on the humans to notice something isn't right.

Omg lol my one coworker's cat booty scoots and pisses her off so bad lol. Haven't seen ours do this thankfully

[@IMChrysalis]

the kitty "booty scoot" issue may be a dietary issue... I'd ask your vet about it to see if you can resolve that. It would save you a bit of work..

[@carolynlong9148]

I prefer using the mask instead of the mouth piece. The mask gives me more freedom and I don't have to hold on to it. That vacuum is a blessing when you have a Ollie and a Harry. Harry was looking like dad you're embarrassing me with the booty scoot talk on camera.

[@artastic_23]

Me too! I’ve never actually used a mouth piece nebulizer, but I don’t think I’d like them!

[@lilostitchlife]

My cat Stitch does booty scoots as well... Hilarious to watch, disgusting to see in the carpet, but easy to clean 🤣

[@MissaLVT]

It's usually a sign that their anal glans are full. Your vet can express them for you and that will stop the booty scooting.
