Faye, as a former oncology CNS, I used to tell my medical and nursing students that I would prefer if they pushed the emergency buzzer and it was a false alarm, rather than not pushing it due to doubts or fear of being wrong. You did the right thing and you will be learning every day for the rest of your life, so that day was no different. Lots of love x

[@DrFayeBate]

Thanks for the reassurance, it means a lot! I absolutely will be learning every. Single. Day. But so far I think that’s what I’m enjoying the most! Hope a life after Oncology CNS-ing is treating you well 😁😁😁

[@ToodleOoo]

I'm sorry about the situation you experienced with your patient. Healthcare can be so incredibly humbling from an anxiety perspective, then just to hear you rang the alarm for no good reason adds to the stress. But you know? I bet that patient is happy you cared and would have potentially been saved if he were in asystole like the monitor suggested. I appreciate this type of content! It doesn't feel so curated and perfected. Thank you for sharing your life with us online.

[@DrFayeBate]

Thanks so much for all the kind words and support! That’s such a lovely reassuring comment 🫶🏼

[@kolakross]

hey Faye, as a nurse I promise you, there is nothing worse than a doctor (or nurse or really anyone I work with) who thinks they know everything. ask for help, push the alarm button and also remember that every single person in that hospital has been new at their job. they have all asked for help. (ps, I think Dylan is right about the food thing: we should all be allowed time to eat. so if you need food (or to go to the bathroom) say so.)

[@iirimi5631]

I loveee thisssss and also I feel so proud to see this transition from a student to a doctor

[@DrFayeBate]

🥲🥲 thank you so muchhhhhh

[@MD-pm2kr]

“Does this wasp not know that I’m a public servant” 😂 hahahhaaha

[@rachelbreen6963]

This vlog was so fun and interesting to watch Faye! I love how real it is and you show the tough aspects to things too, you're doing so well balancing both working as a doctor and running your youtube channel, it must be so hard and tiring, but you always have such a sunny outlook. Inspiration, you have a lot of us supporting you and cheering you on

[@DrFayeBate]

Thanks so much for the kind words and support 🥲🥲 it is definitely tiring but at the moment I’m feeling really challenged, rewarded and fulfilled. I feel so so lucky especially when I read such kind comments like this xx

[@riggstribluemerle949]

Faye if that person was a relative of mine I would have been nothing but grateful that you were more safe than sorry! ❤️ Also whilst the circumstances aren’t perfect - life never is! How lovely you get to spend more time with your person! 😊

[@DrFayeBate]

What a great way of looking at both situations!! Seeing the silver lining 💖

[@janaoosthuizen1421]

Vlog should be called “Dyl’s Kenergy”

[@Sunflower0599]

I worked in the ICU as a med student and one time I removed the ekg patches to do an ultrasound but it made the asystole alarm go off on the monitor but I was standing on the other side so I just thought I’d turn it off after I’m done with the ultrasound. Well, apparently the alarm goes off in the entire ICU so everyone came running with the crash cart 🤡 so I can definitely relate to your story 🥲😂

[@caitlinjohnston7490]

I just came home from seeing saw X (fave horror franchise) and now I’m watching your vlogs! What a decent Sunday 🤍

[@DrFayeBate]

Sounds gorg ✨✨

[@TyVonNorth]

I love your channel. It’s really a vibe and inspiring in many ways 💫

[@DrFayeBate]

Thank you so much!!

[@veronicavasquez8282]

faye, please do a what’s in my clinical bag!😭

[@DrFayeBate]

Oh this is a good one!! Would you be happy with it being short form instead of a long video?

[@franh4570]

I’m love love loving that you’ve kept up with the vlogs. I discovered you in my first year of uni, I’m now in my fourth and final year and your vlogs are genuinely what you do, not an unrealistic standard of every day life that’s unattainable for most. Especially the ones where you’re still in uni

[@Jaz.min.t]

They sell small pots for portioning out formula milk for babies, they’d be perfect for you to pack your Huel for work, you’re doing fantastic well done Xx

[@DrFayeBate]

Omg this is so helpful thank you so so much!! I am now an infant 👶🏼💖

[@ChelseaJeanBentley]

@@DrFayeBate they have tiny ones for dips and sauces for lunches too that would work. I'd say baby pots might have a mark up on them.

[@GinaN-rc5sj]

As a baby I turned pretty orange because all I wanted to eat was carrots and they had to cut them out for a while. So yes, it’s very true. And I am very pale with a blue undertone.

[@DrFayeBate]

So you may see me looking like I belong in Willy wonkas chocolate factory in a few months 🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕

[@hanabehrami7106]

your vlogs will never be boring. i am so here for this.

[@DrFayeBate]

Thanks so much 🥲🥲

[@orlafalconer2314]

My boyfriend also loves plastic water bottle, his current Evian bottle is 5 months going strong but he refuses to get s reusable one

[@daniellescandal2768]

Please make sure you eat on your long days. I didn’t for the first few sets and it just wasn’t helpful and I was less productive. There will always be a time to prioritise patients. See the sickest and then eat something then see the more routine non urgent things. It’s hard at the start to not everything as urgent but you have to take a break and you’re legally entitled too xx

[@aussiebeauty96]

i deadset had the same conversation with my BF about the bathroom last week- its a universal experience i feel

[@DrFayeBate]

Somethings very wrong in the way we raise men as a society because my friends are having the same experience too 🫠🫠 tbf, he’s been really receptive and helpful since!!

[@aussiebeauty96]

@@DrFayeBate oh same! At least they’re receptive…if not a wee bit oblivious 😂

[@meadowselizabeth]

No shade about plastic water bottles but since he's an engineer (if I remember right) he should look at the scientific papers about the amount of microplastics that end up in them from changing temp in transit to stores, etc. This really really shocked me

[@Olga-xy7ry]

This is what I keep saying to my scientist bf but still as soon as he buys one it comes back home and sits on the nightstand 😂 The only thing that works is the glass water bottle we bought in IKEA, now he carries it everywhere with him instead (AND IT LOOKS GOOD).

[@DrFayeBate]

Beat them with ✨✨✨ science ✨✨✨ I will DEFINITELY have to get some to their IKEA bottles!!

[@loiseigenraam]

Hi Faye, in regards to the plastic bags for your extra huel scoop, you could look into the small Stasher bags. They have like small snacksized reusable silicon bags that might do the trick for you!

[@sophieirwin3497]

I hope you managed to get some antihistamine at work! Especially as the sting is so near your eye, that's quite a thin bit of skin. One advantage of working in a hospital, there's any specialist you want just down the corridor or a bleep away

[@adriennb]

Faye: it is truee! a doctor said it as well! me: wait a min, arent you a doctor? cuz i have already filed that carrot info in my mind as "Dr Faye told me so it must be true" 🤣

[@Claudia_K.]

Love your authenticity! It sure must be a great shift in life to work as a doctor full time AND adjusting to live with a partner. It is work living together. Lots of compromising and grace. But you’re doing great! Good luck for Dylan to find a new job. x

[@sidemenlovex7601]

For the situation you should be proud of yourself you made the right call. You thought he was dying/ died and responded correctly and best case scenario happened, it was a false alarm.

[@VanessaChats]

That list is wonderful as it allows him to feel productive and like he's providing you something - this is a love language of men. Thank you for giving him some purpose.

[@hollyelizabeth7743]

Carrots and sweet potatoes! I follow a you tuber who had to stop eating them all together. Her face literally went orange ! Was crazy but yeah it does change your skin colour!

[@melanielynch5612]

Please keep making the vlogs!! I love watching you conquer life as a newly graduated doctor, considering I’m in med school and will have to do the same thing soon ❤️❤️

[@ailbhegallagher9406]

You are my absolute fav comfort youtuber. Such an inspiration!!

[@DrFayeBate]

Thank you 🥲🥲

[@maddiem515]

Your Australian accent is 👌🏻😂💯 love your channel! From an Aussie nurse

[@DrFayeBate]

OMG STOP XOXO this may be my greatest life achievement wow xxxx

[@sannaguld]

Not the world's most boring vlog. I enjoyed it so much.

[@plumdutchess]

If I was the patient, I'd rather you think I was dying when I wasn't and get me help. Than if you're not sure and I actually die. I doubt anyone thinks you messed up. Better safe than sorry and now you know for next time.

[@egrace444]

Rogue idea that helped me with meal prep - asking chatGPT!!!!! You can get so specific with it (ie eating for hormonal regulation // protein // incorporate snacks etc) 🫶🫣

[@DrFayeBate]

Oh WOW!!! That is so so helpful, thank you so much!!

[@breesheyw2340]

You can get protein powder pots, also baby formula pots which are good for things like huel ◡̈

[@DrFayeBate]

Wow the MORE you KNOW - this is so so helpful thank you

[@natureangel33]

I love the vlogs and I always have! Things happen how they are meant to happen so I am glad that you and Dylan have each other 🥰 I also love that your vlogs are realistic, one of the many reasons I enjoy watching your videos! 😳😳😳

[@lauramackay8425]

I keep finding wasps in our bathroom. They are definitely angry this time of year. Sorry you got stung x

[@meadowselizabeth]

Personally, I love your long form vlogs btw!

[@DrFayeBate]

Thanks so much 😁😁😁 I love chatting away tooo so this is helpful to hear!

[@MW-qf1kc]

Haha so funny seeing your thumbnail for this video after the BTS. Really enjoyed this! 😳 (although it sounds like you reacted appropriately so I wouldn't worry) Xxx

[@DrFayeBate]

Sorry if the magic is spolied 😂

[@VanessaChats]

Wanted to assure you there is no such thing as a fake vegetarian. You can be vegetarian and still eat various meats. I eat beef, chicken, seafood however won't touch anything pig (bacon, etc), lamb, turkey and a few other meats. You are a vegetarian with preferences.

[@kfkkfk7995]

...that is *not* vegetarianism. You have the right to eat like that but don't appropriate a label that doesn't suit you because you want to feel like you belong to that group. I used to eat bivalves (they don't feel pain, therefore the logic that applies to only eating plants, dairy, honey and eggs would still apply) and I didn't call myself vegetarian because I just wasn't. And that's okay, you don't have to make a label fit you but for the love of god stop changing definitions just because you want to belong in a group where you don't belong. And you'd have an awful time trying to fit the beef and chicken into the vegetarianism logic

[@apeacefulworld9095]

There no need to be embarrassed..Faye it's part of the learning curve ! Your doing great 👍🏻 Keep on going 💪🏼

[@julieparsons3387]

😂 you always cheer me up. You make me laugh. Brighten up the day 🎉

[@Hannah-oy2ic]

My protein do a little plastic pot that you can put a scoop of protein in so that it's portable. I'm sure you could find something similar elsewhere as well though

[@annadowns3262]

Omg FAYE!!!@ THAT BABY OIL TRICK !!!!!! This is life changing

I literally love your videos sm! I have been ill for the past few days and watching these are my favourite thing :) they have made me start watching long videos because I just love them xx

[@nikolaplivna]

Fun fact, wasps and bees dont die in cold spaces, they enter a deep sleep and awake when hit with warmer temperatures.

[@cora_gs]

I was already looking forward to a new vlog, honestly love the length of your vlogs because they keep me entertained longer🥰

[@coraautumn1130]

Ouch that bee/wasp sting looks so painful!!

[@skybear17]

as a fellow adhd girlie the baby oil idea sounds so smart. i am also autistic tho so idk if id like the feeling of it but it is a smart idea lol

[@carouselbelle502]

U can use baby formula travel containers for the huel to travel with

[@christel6462]

I love your vlogs faye. Definately better to b safe than sorry with that patient. Glad your eye healed fast after the wasp sting❤

what is your job/major?? i'd appreciate it a lot if you could list out a couple pros/cons!! no worries either way xx p.s. i'm just a teenager who has no idea what to do with her life trying to explore different career options and it felt like a good way would be commenting on videos by youtuber's who inspire me!!

Hey I know this is not the Video I am referring to but I just needed to get this off of my Chest. I have ADHD and it is so hard for me to stop doomscrolling I am light years behind my peers in university and I just can't focus . Even though I love your videos and I know they could help me I don't have the patience to actually finish watching them. But the other day I remembered that you mentioned that you use Forest instead of the Screentime app on iPhone. And when I tell you this tip has made sooo many things easier for me and helped me with my Time Blindness thank you so so much for this I hope I can keep up with this and make this a habit but I just wanted to say thank you.

[@RachElizabethxo]

Faye as a nurse I promise you the majority of us would much prefer you pull the emergency bell! When I was a student I used to pull the alarm for vasal vagals (I can’t spell) all the time 😅 We love you Faye you’re smashing it🫶🏻❤️

[@larry3867]

Do you need to wear glasses 😭?

[@akamepetrova]

i'm kinda like dylan when it comes to plastic water bottles, i just love having a new bottle to sip from even though i like my reusable one, it kinda just helps me drink more water as it's a seemingly 'new' bottle

[@PrincessJichu]

In the autumn, wasps go fucking bananas. I've had countless of them stalking me for several meters until I can get inside, they don't give up!
