STORY TIME | Hospitalized for Appendicitis

[@LifeDIYJosie]

You had me balling at hello. I'm so happy that everything worked out fine! You have a lot of strength in you and all of us rallying behind you. Take care...wishing you a speedy recovery! big hugs to you, your daughter and mom , too!

[@irhonda31]

You poor girl! I don't know how you did all that you did on YT in November and this month being so sick! Thank goodness you did not have a rupture; that is really dangerous. Thank you for filling us in on all that happened. I'm really happy for you to be on the mend, and hope that the healing is fast, but don't rush yourself. Yes, we love you!

[@lorraineregret487]

You are a brave girl. Such a sweetheart, worrying about us. Take good care of yourself, and I will continue to pray for a speedy recovery.

[@katiscrafty7111]

I'm so glad you are doing much better and pray that you will have a quick, smooth recovery. It is so important what you are doing with this video -- not just telling your story but spreading the word about your symptoms and the location of your pain and how it can mean something totally different than suspected. It's a good lesson for all of us to remember; if something isn't right, get it checked out!

[@leonabiagini570]

Goodness. I am so glad you're on the mend. My mom had a ruptured appendix many years ago on Christmas Eve because the surgeon didn't want to come in to do the surgery. I almost lost her because of it. I am so glad you listened to your body and went back to the ER. And Happy Sweet 16 to your daughter!

[@susanpink648]

Feel better soon!! You are loved💖you make me feel like I am not alone and that there are other people who love dollar tree and crafting. Thanks to you I have discovered the happy planner too! So thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us. Take care and I hope you heal quickly. I will keep you in my prayers, you are such a special lady!💕

[@lindamcadam2213]

I am so happy you went back to the hospital! I experienced a ruptured appendix and it is horrible. It was a three week stay in the hospital with my stomach being pumped every several hours the first couple of days after surgery. Almost did not survive, but I did. Therefore, you did the right thing by going in. I am praying for you to have a fast recovery. You are loved by so many!

[@allisonledford2321]

Prayer is so unbelievably powerful and I have unfortunately or fortunately needed a lot of that this year. People who you never expected are right by your side no matter what and it's a wonderful feeling. I love your videos and I hope and pray you feel better every day.

[@Molly4702]

So glad you are on your road to recovery. I have missed you and wondered why you had not posted videos the last week. I know you said you live in a very small world but you have so many people in KZbin land that love you over 68,000. You inspire so many of us to do better in life and we thank you for being there for us through your videos . Feel better soon and God Bless You..

[@ladonnashelly6777]

I'm so sorry you had to experience this. I'm glad you went back to the hospital and have them do the testing. My prayers are with you for healing, speedy recovery, and confort. Get as much rest as you can.

[@debilles3307]

Sending you prayers for a speedy recovery! You are obviously a very strong women and will be back in the swing of things in no time! Happy 16th birthday to your daughter!

[@geneagee879]

Marie , so very glad you are on the mend. I have always said that the hospital is no place to get any rest ! You have been missed here on You Tube but please don't worry about your videos, your faithful viewers will always be here. You take care of yourself and just relax and heal :-)

[@pamkemmerer5720]

Wow - you sure went thru a lot! So glad you are on the road to recovery. Stay rested and will keep you in my prayers.

[@sabrinacaro1980]

Wishing you a speedy recovery. I had my appendix taken out when I was a little girl fortunately the procedure has been updated now and you won't have as big of a scar as me.

[@michellebieschke2453]

So glad you are feeling better. You were so wise to go back to the hospitall. Sometimes we try to get pass the pain. You heal up... We will be here when you are ready to get back to the fun! Happy 16th Birthday to your baby girl!!

[@kristicourtney8099]

Wow, that is so scary! So glad your mom was there to help you and your daughter! Glad the surgery went well. Feel better soon!

[@debrakelly2500]

I'm so sorry you went through all of that. Thankfully you're home safe and on your way to good health. Sending ( gentle) hugs and prayers for a full recovery.

[@houseofshetler1532]

Sweet girl! So glad you're feeling better! We missed you, but are so glad you are on the mend and that you listened to your inner voice!!!

[@piggylicous1]

your daughter got the best birthday present ever, your recovery. I am so sorry you went through this and am glad you are doing better.

[@lynetterodriguez832]

I'm so glad you are feeling a little better. Thank goodness you went to the hospital on time. Tons of Blessings your way. I hope you feel 100% soon.

[@stacygavito5418]

I am so sorry for the pain and turmoil you have been going through. I've been there so I completely understand your feeling that you don't remember what being pain free feels like. My prayers are with you and your daughter for a speedy and uneventful recovery. Take care of yourself and know that we will be here waiting when you get back up to speed. God bless!

[@vickyw6178]

Wow! What a story hopefully it helps people in that situation. Always go thru the battery of tests, better to make sure instead of suffering due to an incorrect diagnosis. Glad you are at home & we will be here waiting for when you are up for any posts. We Love you too!

[@lindaketchie7454]

So glad you are starting to feel better. Prayers for continued recovery. You still look beautiful even when you're not feeling well. Thanks for the update.

[@kawannahardy2924]

I'm so glad that you got to the bottom of your pain, got a diagnosis in time, and are recovering so quickly! It's great that you were able to make it to your daughter's 16th birthday party because you might not have handled missing it well. That mom fight that got you to the party, is the same mom fight that had you push through, ignoring your pain. It's a mom's greatest gift and flaw. Continue to rest and recover. Don't worry about how you look, though you look great, especially after what you've been through, we're just happy to see you!!

[@ALayne08]

You were lucky to get the right diagnosis. My mom got the runaround and the wrong diagnosis for a week. During that week her appendix ruptured, she lived 4 days and died in the hospital with very poor care.I thank God that you were blessed.

[@vanessav8744]

Yikes! I am so sorry you had been in pain for so long and that this happened. I am so thankful you are doing better, and I am sending you fast healing vibes! ❤️ Thank you for being you!

[@JeriAnnHenson]

I'm so sorry for all of your discomfort...I was just telling my hubby that I was worried about you because you were not around! So glad your on the road to recovery!

[@daraholland4857]

I know I was like where is she?!

[@serenityinhim]

Jeri-Ann Henson me too!

[@JeriAnnHenson]

Yeah I figure I have to check it more often thanks for the tip.

[@catherinek9734]

Ugh.. ALL of the feels watching this video. I will always tell people who are going through any type of medical issues about the peace that comes with a diagnosis. The uncertainty and anxiety that comes with feeling terrible and not knowing what is wrong... it is brutal. Once you get a diagnosis, answers, information, etc., you can start the process of healing; feeling better, and kicking whatever it is in the butt!! Thank you for sharing your story, for letting us know. As important as your viewers are to you. you are just as important to us. I live a sorta lonely life and when I see a video from you I get super excited to see what you have bought, created, or just feel like talking about. Hopefully each day brings you closer to feeling better than ever. :)

[@kimberlystovall6952]

I am sorry you had to go through this, but thankful you are on the road to recovery. I will pray that each day gets better. Much love. Kim

[@gisellestallings3625]

Glad your feeling better. Even when you are not well, you are still just so sweet. You are a blessing. Stay in bed and get some rest.

[@nadinemonser2153]

What a blessing that you are home and recovering!!! This is your time to receive lots of love and encouragement. You give so much of yourself to all of us!!! God bless you and your daughter and I pray that this Christmas season will be filled with Love, Joy and Peace!!! 🎄💝

[@onetwstdngel]

so glad you're feeling better than you were! your so sweet to keep doing videos even when you're out of it. I'm touched by your expression of love toward your viewers!

[@AGloriousLife]

It seems so inappropriate for me to "like" this video of yours, but I know you understand that it's in emotional support for what you've gone through. Your story had me in tears, and served as a good reminder for us to look after ourselves, to listen to our bodies and instincts -- especially those of us who have a smaller, physical sphere of family and friends to look out for us. I am so happy to see and hear that you're on the mend. You and your daughter are in my thoughts and prayers -- sending good vibes your way. Best, Nan

[@illugaba]

I'm so so so happy that you are healthy! To now be able to breathe, relax and share this holiday season with loved ones, free from pain....what a blessing! I feel like everything that is you (your personality, your movie picks, the affinity for home decor and crafting that you have, how kind and funny you are), is the whole package of someone whom I would consider as a best friend or even sister. You are amazing! Take care and huggggs!

[@countryfinds]

so sorry you went through that pain alone. You are a strong, beautiful lady and I hope you feel better soon. Don't push yourself, get some rest. We will all be here when your ready.

[@KandECraftyShop]

I had my gallbladder removed unexpectedly this summer, on my son's birthday. A pain woke me up in the middle of the night and I couldn't take, I went to the hospital and they said, you need to have surgery. So, I definitely understand. I am glad that you are recovering well and I pray that you recover fully!

[@breemom8422]

I am so happy you are home and I pray you have a speedy recovery. Take care of yourself, we will be right here when you are ready to come back.

[@paulah229]

I'm so glad that you are better. I have lived through similar things and yes, they are so scary. Thank you for sharing the symptoms. You look beautiful all of the time. You are loved. So glad that your mom is there. Happy Sweet 16 to your daughter. Gentle hugs

[@cindybarnes2543]

I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I'm glad your Mom was there to help you through it. Take care of yourself and let your body heal. We'll all be here when you are ready to post more videos. Thanks for all you do, your videos are so fun to watch, but we can wait! Take care.

[@mrskgmo]

I am glad to see that you are doing better. I will continue to pray for you for continued recovery. Your KZbin channel is my FAVORITE!!! So glad to see you smiling. Take it easy!! 😀

[@terrabos5582]

I'm so glad you're on the mend! Take care of yourself and I will keep you in my prayers!

[@KirsNJ]

Praying for a speedy recovery. I understand what you mean about feeling relief when they finally find something wrong.

[@Carliesmom]

Sweetie, I'm so glad you're on the road to a healthy recovery and you do not owe anyone anything just get better and get back to feeling like you again. Prayers and hugs

[@tracyogden7394]

Thank God you are healing! What a scary, painful experience. Keep taking care of yourself. Stay warm and snuggled in bed. Big, healing hugs with much love 💗

[@georgiapeach80]

Wow!! So glad you are on the mend!! I'm praying for your recovery!! I like that you still have your sense of humor!! I have a muscle disease that struck me 5 yrs ago out of nowhere and when you were taking about your not having confidence in your body and fearing it wouldn't holdup I related so deeply to that. Stay strong!!

[@MissTupsy]

Awww, so sorry you had to go through all that! Hope you are feeling better with each passing day. Happy Sweet 16 to your daughter too!! I so enjoy you and your videos!! Take good care of yourself!!

[@laidambones]

I am super happy you are better and it didn't turn to worse, Thank God for it!! Praying for your recovery ! Hugs and kisses from PR!

[@jennyr4064]

Oh my goodness Marie. I first heard about this on snapchat and still came to watch this because I wanted to hear your story. You had me in tears. I'm so sorry you felt that scared and am so thankful you are ok! I know we've never met, but you feel like one of my best friends. I seriously prayed for you every night. Again, I'm happy you're home and heathy. Take care of yourself and you look great!

[@cindysams9832]

Sweetheart, I had tears in my eyes. I have felt that pre-surgery fear. I'm so glad you are on your way to recovery and I hope God blesses you with a healthy, happy new year.

[@savingshuntas5293]

so thankful you came through great. Will continue to pray for a full recovery. Thank you for sharing.

[@anniewalsh8192]

I've watched many of your videos but, new to your vlog. Oh my goodness you went through quite an ordeal! I think speak for many when I say, we're so glad you're doing better and can now put this behind you! God bless you and your daughter! Wishing you a healthy and very blessed New Year!

[@tee1275]

I am so glad you are doing much better. And thank God your mom was there to be with your daughter.

[@alejandramousa9316]

[@doreen5951]

Ohhhhh...honey!!!! Bless your heart..my hubby also had pain that was NOT in the right place, but what his appendicitis. Glad you are on the mend...try to take it easy!! God bless you dear.

[@OutSidrQQn]

Create your destiny - you did, and I'm glad you see the love returned. You put forth your love and have shared your life with us and that love returns ten fold ❤️ - To Happy Beginnings

[@lyriclovercrafts]

I'm so sorry you had to go through that! I'm glad you had your mom in town. Wishing you a quick and easy recovery. xo Amber

[@100jeichelle]

So glad you're better babe. Health scares are the worst especially when you're a mom and are scared to death. Thank God it is done. TFS xoxo

[@dianadellacioppa2257]

I only just saw this video and I truly hope you are doing much better now. You sure had a painful adventure! And through this terribile journey you've proven to be a strong and intelligent woman! You are very much loved by everyone and I'm sure everybody is looking forward to see all your mentioned videos but please take the necessary time to let your body heal and rest...we'll be here waiting. Hugs. 😙

[@Abigail-ef7ls]

I'm so glad your doing better now! I will be praying for you. We just want you healthy, so no rush.

[@nanizaby1]

My son endured going to his pediatrician, urgent care clinics, emergency rooms and numerous calls to his doctor and no one could find out these he had a ruptured appendix. Needless to say after an MRI they discovered he had 2 masses, which was caused by the ruptured appendix. After 21 days in the hospital and not being able to east for over a month, hemorrhaging, feeding tubes, multiple blood transfusions, being in the ICU and 4 surgeries every 2 days he's finally all better. Being 16yrs old, 5ft 8in tall and leaving the hospital weighing less than 110lbs...I'm just thankful he's so much better because his organs were not responding. Glad you're better and that they caught it before it could gotten worse.

[@sharonvanderpol2184]

So sorry to hear about your pain and suffering. So glad that everything turned out well and you are better. Just take care of yourself and gets lots of rest. We can do fine till you are feeling well . Love, and will keep you in my prayers for a speedy recovery! Thanks for sharing!

[@Canadianwdwfan71]

I am so thankful you had a successful surgery and you are home to recover comfortably in your own bed. I pray you heal quickly and feel better soon. Take Care, hugs to you! 💙

[@USRBS01]

Wow! So glad you knew when to go to the hospital, and at I'm glad you timed it well so that you had your mother at your side. Take care of yourself. I think you look good, as always. And thanks for telling the story. I have no doubt it will help some people. I've been having stomach pains myself, and now I know enough not to rule out appendicitis. Thank you!

[@kacycrafts87]

Omg...I'm so sorry you had to go through that! Thank God your mom was there, I'm sure it gave you peace of mind to know that your daughter was taken care of. I'm praying for you to have a quick recovery! Merry Christmas 🎄

[@roseanndeighan3290]

It is a good thing that you listened to the pain and went to hospital, also God makes us do what is good for us sometimes. You are so sweet! God Bless you

[@spozgirl]

like lots of others have said i did wonder where you were and suspected it may be an illness.. as i don't snapchat i'm so pleased to hear that you're on the mend and take your time before coming back because your health is the most important thing we (as single mothers) have! thinking of you all the way from western australia xxx

[@c.j.2576]

I am genuinely sorry to hear that you were in sooooo much pain and felt so alone. When you are a single mom, you feel the weight of that responsibility 24/7... and try to just keep-on keeping-on. It sounds like your body gave you a wake-up call. You have conquered the appendix scare and have come away with some profound insights...good for you! You've talked it all through with yourself, family and your video friends. I think you have handled this whole emergency with a lot of grace and dignity...and have come out the other side an even stronger woman. Pamper your body and let your body heal at it's own pace. We only want you back in the game...when you are completely well and feeling fine. Best wishes....always!

[@melindagutierrez3898]

Soo glad ur ok!! You were missed. It's funny how things happen. Even though you mom wasn't able to stay with you, she was there and was able to be with your daughter. You have a guardian angel looking after you and your daughter 👼🏼 Take good care of yourself. Sending good thoughts of Healing and a Big Hug!! ❤️

[@skybluepink998]

Brave GIrl- how scary! A good friend of mine also had her appendix out in that week or so. Be good to yourself and let yourself heal physically and emotionally. Hugs!

[@carolgarris6577]

Glad you are ok! Hope you get better soon. It's strange how you can have feelings and concern for people you have never met..take care!

[@rebekahheinen3714]

Oh my goodness! I am so happy you are ok. I didn't know until now, because I don't have snapchat, but I will continue praying for your recovery and PLEASE let us know if you need anything! You have a lot of people on here who love you, and I know that many of us would be willing to do what it takes to make sure you are taken care of until you're all better. Thanks for your videos, and for sharing your life with us! I always get so excited to see what you've posted, and it is refreshing to hear your ideas, because it gets my creative juices flowing too. You are a treasure! Get well soon!! :)

[@CheaptoChic77]

Bless you, hun!! I don't comment much, but I barely miss a video! So very happy that you are on the mend, and what a blessing that all this just happened to take place when your mom came to town. Big hugs and take care!
