i have followed you since the very beginning. You have endured so much mental anguish and horrific physical trauma, and yet look at you now. I want to give a HUGE shout-out to caroline for rescuing you and helping you with this journey. Her calm demeanor, her decision to be by your side and certainly upend her life in order to significantly increase your chances at a “bonus life” is truly a rare gift. Many of us are dealing with overwhelming circumstances without a caroline, and i want to highlight the positive impact a “caroline” can make. If a person can help someone in dire circumstances I encourage you to find a way - having to cope with overwhelming hardship alone is absolutely terrifying and emotionally debilitating. And to all the “carolines” in this world, you are angels of huge magnitude and power as you are possibly saving someone’s life.💕

[@karenrouth2056]

Caroline is so very, very precious, I, for one, would love to give her a huge ‘Mama’ hug of gratitude one day xx

[@Jenna-f7c]

Paul, I followed you from day one. I cried with you, prayed for you, checked always to see if you had an update. Now Paul, I can laugh and feel a palpable joy in my heart for you both. You and Caroline have made my Christmas more uplifting and meaningful. Caroline, your loyalty to Paul is staggering. Your soul just shines.❤️❤️

[@bazzatheking3155]

A long time ago Paul someone told me we get two lives. Your first life is the usual normal life then your second life is when you realise you only have one life. Took me awhile to fully grasp that concept but as I got older I realise the wisdom in those words! Live your second life well brother!

[@PaulinPerth]

That is good. Very good. Thank you.

[@JC-tp5lz]

What an amazing truth! I just turned 79, and the impact of that saying about having "two lives" is very powerful! Thank you for sharing it!

[@kristinwood2252]

Such a magical gift to walk a day in your shoes! So special! The energy of nature is incredible!❤

[@terrynorth1953]

You and Caroline look fabulous in that beautiful, serene forest. You look very healthy, Paul. Warms my heart to see you looking so well. Love that smile😊❤️

[@elainefunes4294]

Hey you two so happy to see you again. It's been awhile looking you up. You know seeing this video I'm hoping you and lovely lady Caroline should get back together if you haven't done so already ❤❤❤ enjoy all this wonderful walking together...forever...together.

[@UDPride]

Seeing you outside enjoying life with your guardian angel is what living is all about. Life is precious. Enjoy that new lease and the fresh air!!

[@lesleyannboshoff7061]

Hello Paul and Caroline, thank you for sharing your beautiful forest experience. When i cried with you i was going through chemo for triple negative breast cancer. When i was told i had triple negative i was unaware of the facts. I cried with you when i found out the truth. It was around the same time as you got accepted into surgery even though you were denied at first. I wondered how you were doing every day and my heart lifted when the updates were happy notes. I had to abandon my chemo. I went on to have 15 dises of radiation. Every day, I wondered if it was worth carrying on. Whether it was worth the agony of physical and mental torture. Then you would pop up and i could stand one more treatment. 🎉 Thank you. It is worth it! If Paul can, I can. Caroline, you are a gem. You are an amazing carer, but you are an even better friend. I think many cancer warriors would love to have Caroling in their corner. Keep up the good work. Xx

[@PaulinPerth]

That is so lovely. I read out your words to Caroline. She loved hearing them. Paul.

[@shirleyluckhurst1189]

Aussie nature noises, something so beautiful ❤. I love hearing the birds when I land on Australian soil…so many iconic noises… 🇦🇺

[@suzannastevens4059]

WOW such beauty I am amazed of the beauty and calmness. Paul I have followed you on your journey for a long time and I am very excited to see you looking so well. You and Caroline look so good and happy for life. I am glad you are enjoying this together life is short and I love you are living. My husband battle lead him to heaven in August 2024 I wish I could have what beauty you currently have. I am so happy for you both and pray much love and fun times just living.

[@PaulinPerth]

I'm sorry for your husband. That must be really hard to adjust to. I hope you can find that beauty that you mention. It is there. Have a wonderful day. Paul.

[@imsobored04]

I decided to watch this at my work desk. Spent the entire 10 minutes smiling from ear to ear. Thank you sharing this beautiful video.

Just fabulous to see you out with beautiful Caroline. Wishing you love and peace for 2025 🌈🌻

[@WabeWalker100]

I think back to your videos from the summer of 2023. It was a grave situation. Things seemed desperate. Since then you’ve made science based decisions, you’ve found extremely talented physicians and surgeons, and through extreme endurance you’ve persevered. Thanks, Paul, for showing us how it’s done. We love you.

[@A---ti3zz]

I think he definitely showed the benefit of second and third opinions. He definitely showed tremendous courage facing a scary surgery twice. I’m very happy he didn’t give up

[@lm0703]

Good to see you enjoying your "bonus life!" That place is gorgeous!

[@mews1950]

I started watching in 2023 but stopped because I felt I didn’t want to watch someone slowly progress. I was very surprised to come back and find you in remission! Wishing you well from Cape Town South Africa

[@sharonsalzberg2654]

Watching you enjoy this beautiful forest, no one would ever guess what you have endured over the last year or more, to battle back to health. You are brimming with vitality and a joy for life going forward , that inspires all of us to live every day with gratitude. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2025 to both you and Caroline!🎉🎉❤️

Happy Holdays!!!!

Im still here too Paul. From the beginning. Weve all witnessed a miracle. ❤Em

Paul, I watched this when I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. It put such a smile on my face. What a great holiday and the ocean and forest were beautiful. You and Caroline must have felt so relaxed and invigorated. You looked so vital, it was just a pleasure to see! Happy Christmas and New Year to both of you! ❤❤

[@MaryB567]

I’m not kidding! As Caroline walked up to the tree, I said , “Give it a hug!” and then you said it, too! Same page, dear Paul!

[@AureliaVaughan-z8x]

Happy Christmas Paul and Caroline you so deserve it ❤

How wonderful to see you both doing something “just because”.. I’m just now catching up with your escapades after having been so busy since Helene and Milton kicked our tears down here in FL. Anyways, you guys are cute as buttons and the ray is gorgeous. I used to dive a bit and seeing these things in their own world is truly spectacular. I’m loving your bonus life- fantastic to see you enjoy something without fear or hesitation. ♥️ Love you both- always 🥰 Merry Christmas to you all! ♥️

[@A---ti3zz]

Your videos make me cry because I am so happy you are doing so well. Keep it up!!

[@jorunningdawgproductions7266]

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! And how poignant and poetic the trees recovering and thriving from their ordeal of a fire. They are probably whispering to themselves about how well you are doing too, recovering from your ordeal. :)

[@ColleenF30]

Thank you for bringing us on holiday with you! omg I enjoyed this so much!

Paul, I am so happy to see you and Caroline outside in the beautiful wildlife. I much prefer this picture of the two of you. I have followed you from your first cancer treatment and I am so grateful for this picture of you enjoying life. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you both, from Kat and the owls

[@tomy8339]

It's great seeing you and Caroline having a holiday and enjoying yourself. Right up and close to a stingray, how awesome!!

[@PaulinPerth]

Yeah, it is such a joy to have animals in their natural habitat interacting with you.

[@cflores9275]

How peaceful, terrain diverse and beautiful this vlog is. The forest sounds were perfect; when you live in a big city, it’s hard to hear nature around. And stingrays to boot! Incredible. You are looking good, Paul. Thank you for sharing your bonus life. 🎉

[@lindamiller7557]

It was fantastic to see you and Caroline on holiday! I loved the scenery and especially the stingray that swam up to your wife two times. You are looking healthy and glowing with pure happiness. Thanks so much for these videos.

[@PaulinPerth]

Thanks Linda. I don't actually know who that woman was. She was just at the beach. FYI Caroline is my best friend, not my wife. Thanks for watching!

[@karenfitzpatrick6256]

I had to watch this video twice! You are radiating health and happiness. I'm loving watching best friends exploring nature like innocent children. Seeing, hearing, feeling, touching (and tasting the tree Caroline? LoL) the river and the sea, the forest and the sunshine. Taking the time to appreciate the plant life and all the creatures from wild birds, stingrays to the sweet pup. Life simply celebrating itself everywhere around you. Thank you so much for taking us along this soul enriching walk! I'm watching this from Vermont USA where we have snow on the ground and it's 18 degrees fahrenheit (or -7.8 C) ✈️❤️🎄

Thank you! Caroline laughed at the bit about her tasting the tree. Paul.

[@WarriorGramma]

Love those sounds, I could go to sleep listening to them. And the sights, if I could I would fill my garden with ferns, they make me happy. Gnarly trees have such character. Oh and the water. I always live by water to feed my soul. Best of all, to see you both relaxed and loving life. This is the bonus. Savour every moment, every good time, every sad time, awaken the senses as often as you can. Because you can. ❤️🥕
