Kudos to Kyle's parents for raising him to be the man, father and husband he is today. Enough said.

I have watched other videos where the wife is sick and the husband s are like Kyle. If any male that is lost in how to be A REAL MAN they should watch videos like this. They will see devotion and love. 17:47

He is a real man in every since of the word and any woman would happily follow a man like him!!! Most men are not 1/4 of a man like him.... most are centered to themselves!!!

Kyle didn’t have a dad while growing up. His mom definitely raised a terrific man!

[@stephaniedavis6531]

It was only recently that I learned from one of Kyle's videos

[@stephaniedavis6531]

Oops, It was only recently that I learned from one of Kyle's videos that his Mom was his sole parent when growing up. Kudo's to his Mom to "keeping it together" with all the adult responsibilities and maintaining her sense of calm to guide and sheperd Kyle along in his character building, decision making and every aspect of his life to have him be the gracious human being he is today.

Jenny, I'm so glad to hear the fluid has decreased!! I'm really glad to hear your pain is more under control ❤. I'm a medically retired Oncology RN and I just am so amazed at how strong you are, you should be proud of your incredible resilience. Sending prayers and much love ❤ 🙏🏼🤗

[@astock5794]

I have never commented before, but just wanted to share this... I had a close family member in the hospital with cancer, and my youngest child was technically too young to visit this person. It was really difficult for the both of them. We did the outside visits. We basically had to demand them. At first the staff was resistant (but couldn't give a great reason) but they finally agreed. The doctors couldn't get over how much it helped the patient - both seeing the young person AND the fresh air. I hope you can work it out, if that is what you decide is best for your sweet kiddos. Sending you lots of love and healing thoughts.❤️❤️❤️

[@annabizaro-doo-dah]

100% agree. Jen is plenty looking well enough to see Winnie even if for a short visit so it doesn't take it out of her. I think Winnie NEEDS it at the moment😢

My dearest Jenny, I want to share my little adventure with you. A few days ago, I decided to pack my car with a tent and supplies to last me a few days. I camped (I am no expert) on Chincoteague Island, Virginia, where the ponies roam free. I had a water front view and I had two chairs positioned beside the waters. I spend three days alone with God in deep prayer for you and your family. I sat in one chair and the empty chair was filled with my prayers for you. I prayed at sunrise and sunset and throughout the days for you. I prayed for healing and for God’s covering of peace. I am so sad that you are in the hospital. You are loved by so many and it’s unimaginable just how many prayers are being sent your way. I will continue to pray for you and I pray you are feeling better soon and back home with your precious children. Kyle is a wonderful supportive husband. Happy Father’s Day, Kyle. Praying your family will be together soon. 💙💗

I agree that letting Ellis visit would create a difficult situation between him and his sister. Siblings do share most everything and keeping it a secret would very hard for Ellis to do. Pursue the idea of being able to meet up with your kids for a short while outside. That would be so terrific for them! They really need that at this stage of the game…. and so do you! I hope that the hospital rules will allow that. 🤞Get well soon Jenny! Love and prayers! 🥰💕

[@teijaflink2226]

Isn't it better to ask him of he wants to ser his min? He seems old enough to make the decision himself. They could tell Winnie she's too young, though to me that seems bit cruel, I'm quessing it's the hospital regulations but children that young need to ser their patents so inom feels cruel by the hospital to not let her visit too because of her age(of course maybe not a good idea of you're too sick but when you feel better). But best would be if both could visit outside, okay I don't know how long the hospital stay will be but of it will be very long then I think it's more important that they can visit heir mother regularly children often understand more than you think, they have guestions and worries about what is going on but att the same time you know your kids and what would be best for them individuelly.

Ciao! Vi scrivo dall'Italia, per la prima volta commento un video in vita mia, ma voi due, singolarmente e come coppia di genitori, siete di una rarità incredibile. Tu Jenny sei vitale e profonda, Kyle è il tuo sostegno ma contemporaneamente tu sei il suo, mi stupite per come siete in grado di affrontare ed elaborare tutto quello che vi sta capitando... La vostra capacità di resilienza è un grande spunto di riflessione per me. Credo che stiate insegnando molto a tanti. Siamo geograficamente lontani, lo siamo anche culturalmente e forse anche per questo vi stimo profondamente. Vi auguro il meglio, davvero.

[@Proguitax]

Oh, what a beautiful comment. Let me translate ❤. Hi! I'm writing from Italy, commenting on a video for the first time in my life, but you two, both individually and as a parenting team, are of incredibly rare character. You Jenny carry both depth and vitality, Kyle is your support but at the same time you are his, it shocks me what you are able to confront despite everything that is happening to you. Your capacity for resilience is a inspiration for self-reflection for me. I believe you two are teaching a great deal to many people. We are geographically very far apart, and culturally as well, and perhaps it is also for this reason that I hold you in such high esteem. I wish you the best, truly.

Great idea about talking to the doctor, nurses, and social worker. If you feel strongly about it, a visit with your children may really help you all! Sometimes what children imagine is much worse than reality. Have something fun planned for them to do after the visit is over so it’ll be easier for them to leave. You’ll make the right decision- I have no doubt! Praying for you and I like the updates! 🙏🏻❤

[@donnadixon289]

Back in 1970, when I was eight years old, my mother was treated for cancer and she’ll be turning 100 years old this September. Back then it was customary for children to be shut out of any communication so no one ever asked me how I felt, I was not permitted to visit my mother for months and no one provided any form of psychological support. As a child, I was literally sick with terror every single day. All around me were adults with sad faces whispering things and I was temporarily sent to live with another family as my old fashioned father did not participate in child care beyond being the financial provider. Over 50 years have passed and I still get flashbacks of the sickly feelings I had back then. It’s just sooo wonderful to see how inclusive and supportive you both are toward your children in spite of your own ongoing suffering. I hope your children have access to a child therapist experienced in helping children identify and express their feelings. I think it would be wonderful for the children if you could spend some time sitting outside with them. We only see the tip of the iceberg with children’s feelings as they lack skills for self expression. Thank heavens, that unlike in my childhood, there now are great child specific therapies. Wishing you the best from Canada.

[@naomisgram1]

That is so true, my Dad very suddenly died at work from an unexpected cardiac arrest. I was 8 years old and no one really talked to me about how I felt and or how I was hurting. It was 1955 and I guess they didn’t think of that then. One of my fears was if my Dad could die that suddenly then maybe my Mom will too and I will be an orphan, and such. I’m so glad they are both so thoughtful of the kid’s’ emotional well being through all of this ❤

[@wendybenton9762]

So sorry you went thru that, sadly my mother went thru your experience, no thought for the children...her mother had cancer, no child visits..then one day out of the blue her teacher (primary school) just said..." you can go home early your mums dead" ...as the eldest of six siblings she was told to break the news to them. She's 96 now and still stresses over the ordeal. Thankgoodness times have changed. Blessings to all ❤❤❤

As a retired children's therapist, I think you are already doing the right things with your children, trust your instincts and don't worry about them shedding tears, that's a healthy response to missing you & knowing something is going on.

Hello Jenny. We are 37 years past my husband's serious illness that had him in hospital for 6+ weeks. 2 major surgeries, 4 weeks in ICU. Our sons were 4 and a newborn. The boys were with family so I could be with my husband everyday. I had forgotten how hard this was until I just saw the two of you today. We did get through it. I remember stopping at the hospital gift shop every night to buy the 4 yr old something from daddy. Gum, chocolate, little things, but it was from daddy. After about 6 weeks, though, our son told me he was going with me to see his daddy, and got into the car. I understood. Yes you will see your daddy, no matter what. In we went to the hospital, and hand in hand into my husband's room. He was the happiest little boy when he saw his dad! No trouble from staff. My husband was released soon after that visit. We did get back to normal, it took a little time. The boys were okay. ❤

[@lesliedelp3565]

Jenny, it is such a difficult decision about the children and being a children’s bereavement therapist, I can honestly share that you and Kyle are the best judges of what to do. Listen to your heart, it will tell you what to do . There are a couple ways you can go but again you know the children best and if you think you’re going to be out of the hospital soon, then hang in there and do your visits virtually or if the doctor allows them to come outside. Overall, it will be less stress for you, and that is important! so wonderful that Kyle can be there with you, and my prayers are daily that you are home soon and feeling better. Hugs!

Hi! After watching this video, and with them talking about the kids feelings, etc. I wondered in my mind if the kids should be going to counseling. Sounds like you’re a therapist, what would be your thought on this? It would be cool if the hospital had something for children of the hospitalized parent. Or maybe the kids could go with when Kyle goes to his counseling session. I don’t know. It’s just a thought that I had after watching this one. Thanks for listening. ❤❤❤

[@meganmckissick2281]

Your vegan diet is working against you right now! Pure protein in meat is sooo important! I had emergency surgery and was a vegetarian for years prior. Lean beef provides iron. Chicken or eggs provide B12! Certain Fish offers Omega 3s. Ask a registered dietician for advice while you are in the hospital. This is life or death! Eat right! Build up your strength & then be a vegetarian but STOP EATING FAKE MEAT & SOY! I promise your weird diet is NOT helping you!

It really does help you be able to hold it up and keep the weight on the stick which can rest on your legs or the bottom resting on your hip. I'm glad you're rallying and seeing improvements! I'm keeping all of you, your family, and your friends in my prayers. Much love from Michigan!

[@sandrastiltner4024]

I must tell you sweet Jenny that I am impressed by your hospital gown. It is so much better than the standard issue.😅 Your adorable Kyle is always thinking about things you would like to give you some comfort while confined. Your loving family will give Ellis and Winnie loving hugs and kisses while you just concentrate on feeling better. With a hubby who adores you, all will be okay. Prayers each night for you.❤❤❤❤

[@angeladonovan9395]

I feel for all of you so badly. I know how traumatic it is, all of it from having cancer to an ambulance ride to a long stay in the hospital and missing your children like crazy. It's a lot. I commend both of you for handling everything so beautifully. You going outside for some fresh air and a visit from your children is exactly what you need right now. Thank you for keeping us posted on your health like you do it means so much because we all care so much for you. We're praying 🙏 every day for your family.

I can see how much better you are able to feel, breathe, relax, and cope, all good news! 👏🏻😁 Bad bad treatment is toast!!

You have this remaining interval of time to recover well and get strong again!🙏🏻👏🏻😀 What would we do if you two weren’t as fab together as you are?!🌺😘😍And Ellis and Winnie trust you in everything you do, every decision you make on their behalf and their world with you in it even if temporarily things are a little less than perfect. They are learning life lessons and coping skills!!🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 You are showing them how to be brave, how to accept changes and grow stronger as challenges get bigger with age. Don’t worry too much as it will hold you back, then them as well! ☺️🙂🤗👍🏼👏🏻 Now, rest well but first brush your teeth and say your prayers😂😅❤!!

[@trudyramgren8817]

Absolute prayers Jenny and Kyle. You both are such a lovely couple. I can see the sadness in your faces but hold on Jenny, you will gather more strength each day. Cancer is hard to speak about these days as my daughter will be having good days and bad days as well. You two don't know how much this breaks me dealing with my daughter and seeing you not feeling well but by the grace of God, he is going to get you better so you can be home with your babies. Personally in my opinion, I would see if there is another way for Ellis and Winnie both to see you at the same time. Hopefully it can be an outside thing. I hope you two can work that out for all of you. Jenny, I'm praying hard for you, Kyle and your babies along with my daughter. Get rest and think positive thoughts that this is just a bump in the road along with cancer. Kyle, I pray for strength, faith, hope and peace for you going through this with Jenny. You are a fantastic guy. Who wouldn't want you to be near someone's side when they are sick? Both of you are blessed having each other. Many prayers going up for you all!!! Hugs and love.❤

[@Lisa-hl2pt]

Good morning, Jenny. It’s noon (EST). Even when there’s no video, I continue to keep you in my prayers and think of you and Kyle and the kids as I go through my day. You’re both such thoughtful, kind parents- whatever you decide for Ellis and Winnie will work out fine. 💕💕💕💕

[@michele387]

From a fellow cancer warrior, please allow me to share my father's story. When he was 19 he was diagnosed with tuberculosis. He was sent to a sanatorium to be isolated because tuberculosis was so contagious. His condition became so dire they told him he would either need portions of both lungs removed or try experimental medication. Thank God he choose the medication. He was one of the first patients to receive the cure. Keep fighting Jenny,(I know you will) because you never know what discovery is around the corner. Also if there is such a thing as soulmates it's Kyle and you. So glad you found each other. God bless you and your beautiful family.❤

[@BGiseleCarter]

Every time I watch your videos, I say a prayer for you Jenny! May the Great I AM, the Creator who made every cell and tissue in your body restore your health. Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirt and cancer has no place in it. Receive your healing in Jesus name. Amen!

Thank you for showing us and letting us be a part of your journey with you and Kyle for the good, bad, and ugly that cancer is... CANCER SUCKS!!

[@mgs783]

Jenny you are making progress! It’s very noticeable that your body is recovering from the culmination of that last treatment. You got on your feet, your port and draining have not stayed at a “10”!! That’s awesome plus your pain seems better controlled. These aspects are huge successes. Kyle is wonderful communicating and sharing his thoughts & feelings with you. Jenny you provide a safe & open environment to exchange your feelings together. Thank you for sharing your emotions, feelings, experiences & thoughts on so many aspects you are navigating individually & collectively ❣️ Jenny you were so intuitive about celebrating Kyle w/the E-bike!! It feels like you did celebrate Father’s Day . Your dad had fun time w/you assembling the bike & riding it too! That was a beautiful daddy/daughter time/experience. Your dad must’ve felt valued & loved by being involved in that while also having that precious time with you. Jenny, the kids & you celebrated Kyle w/the bike surprise and that was a Fathers Day present that you all enjoyed together! You are closer to being home than yesterday even, so you deserve to celebrate the improvements, the love that buoys you two in the challenges of what preferred positive things isn’t happening YET (meaning it’s on the way). How glorious when your hard work & efforts as the incredible duo you two are yield the best possible outcomes!! The kids are receiving your love and the support team of helpers are an extension of you which is fantastic for them too. You’re doing AWESOME ❣️🤗🙏🙏🙏 for continued strength & positive steps forward.

[@JoanSiljeur]

Hello Jenny, your friend from SA, Today is Saturday here and the time is 6.00pm. I am preparing the Father's day meal for tomorrow because it will be Fathers day. My husband was diagnosed with Fibroses of the Lungs 18 months ago and given a life span of 3 years and half of that is gone. Tomorrow some of my family will be here for lunch celebrating Fathers day with us and some will not see the importance of spending precious time with their father because it could be the last Fathers day so I so admire your family and pray that God grant you many more years together because life has so many challenges and you and Kyle seem to have it all together, stay strong dearest Jenny and know God loves you and yours. Joan. ❤❤

[@jazz901]

Sometimes I think hospitals have hurtful rules. What in the world is so different about a 3 yr old vs a 7 yr old? And there is nothing as important when a parent is hospitalized than to be with their children. Forget the dumb ole germs. IMO, separation is more harmful that silly little germs. Your children (both) need a hug from mama. There is no better healing agent. My childhood feels like it was yesterday and I would have just been crushed without seeing my mama and having her hugs. Do whatever you can to see your darlings. You need it! Your children need it! It just brings tears to my eyes that the hospital mandates no visitation for your children. I will pray for all of you and that the doors be opened.

[@paperandtwine]

I think Winnie might be too young to understand if you allowed Ellis to visit, but not her. You are their parents though and I know you will make the right decision for you and your family. FaceTime/zoom might be the way forward for now, fingers crossed you will be home soon. I know I don’t know you in reality, but I feel invested in your journey and look forward to seeing your videos. Yours and Kyle’s strong love for each other shines through. When I was going through cancer treatment, my mantra was”every cloud had a silver lining”. You are so lucky to have each other, many people fight this dreadful illness with no one to support them. You are each others silver lining. As always, sending huge positive vibes from the UK 🇬🇧💕🤗🙏

[@suzannes1625]

We miss you too Jenny. Thank you for the update. We do worry about you. You have been through so much. Lovely that Kyle can be with you tonight. The candles and flowers are lovely. I hope the draining continues to be pain free for you. I also hope you are able to see both your dear children soon. Keep getting stronger every day. 🌼

[@SLPtoMD]

Is there any chance that you’d be able to go outside in a wheelchair and meet with both of your kids out there? Might be a middle ground to be able to let them both visit you 💕 Edit: you said the same thing as soon as I posted my comment haha. It’s be done where I used to work, so definitely worth asking!!

[@rosannacellini2158]

Jenny, we're so glad the draining went quicker and you had less pain. Kyle being by your side, is a big comfort he's so sweet. Hang in there sweetie, you'll be home soon Maybe in the meantime, you could FaceTime the kids on your phone, if you can. 😊🌹🌹❤️🕊️🙏🙏

[@TheKrmoore]

Hi Jenny your very first video came across my feed about your cancer and I’ve been following you since. My heart is breaking for you that you have to be in the hospital right now. You have an amazing support system around you and you seem very optimistic. And let me tell you from my experience that’s everything! I never blamed God for my cancer. Diagnosed almost 20 years ago. I leaned on Him ❤️ I have three daughters and they were very young at the time. I questioned a lot of the things you’re questioning right now. Wanting to do what’s right and make the right decisions by them. I really think a little outing outside would be a wonderful idea. As long as your team agrees with that. I am praying for strength and healing 🙏🏼

I am so happy to hear that there is less fluid (hoping that continues) and that you had barely any pain. I am sure you and Kyle will figure out the right thing to do with the kids, it is hard for anyone to really know unless they are going through it. I hope they let you get time with your babies, they do need their momma. City of Hope sounds so awesome. Hugs and still praying for you.

[@Barbara-ch3qf]

Thank you so much for taking time out from your date night to update us. I’ve been thinking about you a lot. I’m glad they figured out how to make the draining procedure less painful. The question about Winnie is hard. It would do you so much good to see your son at least, but that’s a hard thing to ask Winnie to understand. I like your idea about meeting them outside, though that seems like logistically that might not be so easy. Still, it’d be medicine for the soul, maybe the staff will try to make it happen! I wish you a speedy recovery and homecoming.

[@denisia1111]

Hi Jenny and Kyle it's nice to see things are getting better. If I were you I would ask the doctor what is a good time between treatments to go outside? It's not a question of if you can see the kids but what time that day. When I had cancer and chemo my daughter was 2 at my diagnosis and 3½ when I finished chemo. During that time Annie n I would watch Mr.Rodgers to help with her Big Feelings. It's amazing how many of his shows can be easily compared to to situations and emotions Elias and Winnie may be experiencing. Thank you both for the update, have a Happy Father's Day, and don't forget to double check the schedule so you know what time you're going outside. P.S. Jenny your presence is the best present for Father's Day ❤

We all love you guys … and Happy Father’s Day to you, Kyle - you’re the best ( after my own husband, of course 😉).

You are both so wonderful on this difficult journey. You’ve been honest with your children so far ,explain the hospital rules and the purpose of the tubes you have.

I have rejoiced with your Disneyland adventures (I grew up going to Disneyland as a child, so it felt like I was revisiting the Miagic Kingdom with childhood eyes). I reveled with you and your sweet family (including pets) and I've cried when your pain was overwhelming. I truly care about you, Kyle, and your kids. It's strange to have such deep caring about someone I only know through a vlog. I keep you in my prayers every day. Get better soon, sweet Jenny. Kyle - you're the greatest!
