You have changed so much.... you had so many hospital admissions and I used to be willing you on to get home. When transplant came up I was seriously worried. You have so much joy in your days - you give hope to so many xoxo

[@thefreylife]

Thank you Debbie, we are so grateful that you have bene with us through the hard times & the Trikafta times :)

[@carolyngarrison10]

I remember when you could hardly do a load of laundry. AND, you just went through a 20+ minute vlog, without one cough. It’s truly a miracle.

[@thefreylife]

Carolyn isn't it incredible?! Thank you so much for celebrating with us! :)

[@dleedraws475]

My fiance has been on it since the beginning of the year, and its incredible! She rarely coughs anymore (which is how we used to be able to find her in grocery stores) and her lung function is up to 75%! Aside from her needing her gallbladder taken out (due to a side effect of Trikafta we believe), she hasn't needed a hospital stay due to her CF! 2020 has been so hard for a lot of people, but with her being approved for Trikafta and our wedding this coming October, its been a wonder year for our family. Trikafta is a true wonder... So glad you guys are still going strong! Congratulations 👏

[@thefreylife]

D Lee Draws that is such amazing news! I'm SO glad that she is doing so well on Trikafta (apart from the gallbladder surgery)! Thank you for celebrating with us, and know we are cheering you guys on as well! :)

[@naomirg8273]

It has been so amazing to see you just bloom over the last year. Prior to Trikafta, I was afraid for you Mary. Praying for you to hold on. 1 year later you are almost a new woman and it is a blessing to see you live and move and have joy.

[@thefreylife]

Thank you Naomi!

[@mysuperpack63]

Your voice sounds so much different, less raspy, more powerful! It's amazing! And you look so much stronger and healthier omg

[@larab440]

I have been around for so long and I have watched as Mary declined and lost so many of the joys she had in her life like horse riding lessons. I remember Peter saying how much coughing he would edit out cause Mary didn't want to hear it and didn't want us to have to hear it. And then I watched how real things got before the move and transplant talks ramped up. Then the joy as the small things became possible and then bigger and bigger! Everyone remember the first time she got to run with Ollie? Or just pulling out the umbrella without Peters help. Congratulations to you Mary!! I am so so excited to see your next victory. Love ya both!!

[@thefreylife]

Thank you so much Lara B! We are so grateful that you are on this journey with us through the hard times & through the Trikafta times :) Thank you for those encouraging words friend!

I hope the people that worked on making this drug see this video! So happy for your success on this medication!

[@beverlyburris8026]

Watching the change in your daily life has been joyous for me! I’ve been here a couple of years now -watching the decline and feeling concerned when the transplant week happened. The almost immediate and very noticeable improvements on Tricafta were encouraging and exciting. Watching all that you have done in your new home, the zero hospital stays, and no IV antibiotics, the energy for cooking, working on the house, getting out for walks and all the fun things you and Peter and Ollie and Harry do together blesses me every day. 🙌💕🥰 I pray for you to have years of improvement and extended time to be so actively engaged in daily life. HalleluYah for this blessing❣️❣️

[@thefreylife]

Thank you Beverly for celebrating with us & for your continued prayers!

[@silviabomboi5961]

Hi guys, thank you so much for telling us your amazing experience! I'm from Italy, and in november 2019 my husband started Trikafta. He was waiting for the lung transplant since three years, and since five years he was on anthibiotic endovenous therapy every day, with no stop. Now he's not on the transplant list anymore, he's no longer on anthibiotic therapy, he doesn't need oxygen and he can walk for km faster everyday, he can run and jump and we can travel and live a normal life finally!! Thank you for giving me hope one year ago when you first started Trikafta! Big hug and have a good life guys!

[@hayleymarse2853]

Congratulations!!! It makes me so happy to see just how much trikafta has helped Mary. I love getting to watch you guys and your contagious positivity

[@karenwood9593]

So many things in the news are so depressing. It is truly wonderful to share in your good positive news. I started volunteering this morning at Feeding America of Southwest VA and it was a great experience. I almost took a nursing job down your way a few years back. Now I'm retired from home care nursing, and my days are still pretty full but it is great to do the volunteer work. Looking forward to getting my tiny air plants

[@thefreylife]

Karen that's so exciting!! & yay we can't wait for your air plants to arrive!

I started a new asthma medication last year called Fasenra. What a year it has been! Less coughing every day, and needing less breathing treatments. I am so grateful for the Fasenra! It has worked so well for me. It has given me back my quality of life! Congratulations on one on Tricafta!

TRIKAFTAVERSARY..... An anniversary absolutely deserving to be celebrated with joy and thankfulness! It has been quite the journey for the both of you. Your daily vlogs have given us the opportunity to witness the amazing “ turn around” in Mary’s health. Such a privilege to be able to pray for you as well. This is an exciting month for both of you and, I can certainly tell, an emotional one as well. PARTY ON!!! 🤗❤️❤️🙏🏼😘🐕🐱

Happy trikaftaversary! This made me cry. I am overjoyed to see you doing so well! Sitting here in Germany waiting for the approval coming at the end of this month, I can't believe that this miracle is really about to happen. I will never be able to put into words just how grateful I am for this drug. Witnessing the Cf community turn from mourning the loss of people almost on a daily basis to celebrating one another's health improvements is the best thing ever!!!

So thankful that you found some relief through Trikafta! Love you guys!

[@imogenoliver]

I remember watching the August 2nd video hoping that you would make it to a week or a month on trikafta, knowing what cf can be like as my uncle has cf. Then you got to a week and a month and now a year and I couldn't be more glad. I can tell you're doing so much better and I can't wait to see what else trikafta can do for the both of you. My hope is that in a year's time we can have a 2nd trikaftaversary and maybe even a 3rd and a 4th. Love you guys and I look forward to seeing what else trikafta has install for you 🥰.

[@annharper8462]

Happy Trikaftaversary! I started watching when I was looking for a video about percussion airway clearance. You starting on Vertex inspired me to go ahead on a new medicine that I’d been thinking about but afraid to try. My life has also changed - way less coughing, peak flow is up to where it had never been before, lung function numbers are all “in the black” and no more moon face from so much prednisone! I’ll have my Fasenraversary in November. Thank you for your encouragement and example! Sooo happy for you!

[@ajrwyb1217]

Im so happy this drug has worked so well for you. I have always loved your optimism. Your channel brings me such hope when life is hard.

2019 Transplant looming..... 2020 transplant indefinitely delayed! It’s been amazing to watch the transformation over this year with you two. So happy for both of you! I was a pediatric RN at St Louis Children’s Hospital in the 1980s. Back then CF sufferers life expectancy was early to mid 20s and a great struggle at that. It’s been so gratifying to see how much more full and long lived the CF community has been able to experience and enjoy in those passing years. Now to watch the strides of these genetic based drugs and how much they can help many of you. Truly a blessing!

"It did more than we knew to dream for." The life-changing ability of Trikafta, summed up in 9 words.♥️ While watching your vlogs this past year, the day-to-day improvement in your quality of life is of course very evident, but somehow it didn't occur to me until fairly recently that "Mary hasn't been hospitalized since Trikafta!"😮 Hospital stays were such a regular part of your medical care, and now?? Just wow, what a remarkable drug. God bless all the people who helped in the creation of Trikafta.🤗 They have truly earned angel wings. 😇

[@BNHAalltheway]

Mary i am so happy that this medication has been able to help you. I love watching your videos and seeing you laugh and smile and enjoy life without coughing so much like you have done in the past. You and your husband are such an inspiration to watch. You both taught me that even though there is negative things that happen in life that there is always something to be thankful for. Thank you both for that lesson. I will keep you in my prayers and pray that this medication can continue to help you and that your body will not reject it, i makes me happy to see that you are doing better.

I remember praying for you Mary. I wanted there to be something that could help you so much. I remember crying because I wanted better for you. The many times you had to be hospitalized during the holidays and such. Yet you chose to do what you think you can’t do. I am so glad that trikafta came along. I cried tears of joy when you were able to try the drug for the first time. And now it’s been a year. It’s been amazing seeing your journey!

[@anngabriel5455]

It's so hard to believe that one whole year has passed since we all sat together in that little room, hoping, dreaming and praying that today would look like it does.
