"There's Nothing More We Can Do" - A Chaotic Return

[@nancymandle5215]

This is a wonderful day - i really thought you might have permanently moved on from youtube, or maybe the medical challenges had become too overwhelming to vlog about, and yet you always remained in my heart. And today you have returned!!!!!!!! Videos of any length, any topic, any creative format would be SO PRECIOUS!!!!!!! Medical updates, clothing finds, crafts, day-in-the-life, favorite medical aids, poems, recommended products - you name it - will be considered gifts from our dear and wonderful christina. Oh, happy day!!!!!!!

[@megansnyd74]

Amen to that!!

[@ChucknRachelN]

Welcome back! I missed your videos.

[@lisbethkrosbybrathen8154]

Cant belive thath you are still standing 💞

[@pamelamartin8464]

So happy to see you again. You have made my week. And you look absolutely beautiful.

[@AllieYoung]

I just SCREAMED when I got the notification that you uploaded! Been following you from the beginning and you inspired me to document my chronic illness journey on here! Girl we don’t care if the video is fancy, we’re here for you!

[@christinadoherty3212]

Love you girl! Im so glad you are putting your voice and story out there! 💕

[@rosiesimmons2999]

Same!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@sarahwithstars]

Absolutely me too ❤❤❤😅

[@elizabethb1096]

It’s been 4 yrs? Missed u much glad to have u back!

[@melsgalleria]

Yeah, I can't believe it has been 4 years either. That is totally insane to me.

[@emmaRBC]

I actually learned about EDS from your videos and feeling a lot of things were familiar to me, I visited some doctors about it was actually diagnosed with hEDS at the end of 2019. So thank you for making EDS more visible 💙 Looking forward to watching the video

[@montiloo]

Girl yo do you, we watch you for "you". Glad you're back and adressing mental health in the chronic illness comunity... many times is so overlooked!

[@katherinemurphy2762]

We're sticking with you! Welcome back!!

[@libbygibson5612]

You have been missed!❤️

[@ConestogaCreek]

Welcome back. I’ve been here a long time.

[@fru9176]

Soooo happy to have you back!!!

[@menodora6478]

More than the video, it’s just great to see that you’re doing better these days! I’ve followed you for many years now, including on Instagram during your hiatus, and it’s always a joy and a relief to see you having the freedom to enjoy yourself. I still have a rainbow you made hanging on my wall - it’s been through several moves with me over the past four years but has always been proudly displayed. Although ableist society makes it unsafe to go out, know that there are those of us out here who still mask and still care. And we haven’t all lost interest in long form media, either! Congratulations on your return to KZbin! ❤❤❤

[@lauramater4098]

Welcome back!

[@bethbounds2873]

Glad you’re finally doing better.

[@rbroxton3068]

Just to see you back is enough ❤❤

[@sabrinahaake8195]

There is nothing better than hearing your voice again! I am so glad you are back. Please don't stress about the quality.

[@morganhuggard7301]

Thank you for coming back! We missed you 🌈

[@buildingamystery74]

I’ve been watching your channel for years and I’ve always been amazed by how complex your health is. I’m thrilled to hear that you’re managing your cptsd and that your recent surgeries have been beneficial. That’s amazing. I hope things continue in a positive direction for you and your family. So glad to see you back again. Don’t put any pressure on yourself to film. You’ve got enough on your plate.

[@brettworkes1254]

I’ve been WAIIITTTINNNGGG for you to come back!!!😊

[@bonniegirlster]

I started watching you 9 years ago after my open heart surgery and always loved all your vlogs. I have thought about you over the last couple years and am so glad that you’re back! Looking forward to your next video!

[@christinadoherty3212]

I love hearing this and that after all this time we are still both here in this space together. ❤️

[@lucybeasinger498]

i’m so glad to see you

[@bridgetobrate5685]

So happy you are back, you have been missed!❤

[@NiceDreamXO]

My vote is definitely for long form content!

[@annaWdbn]

Its like catching up with an old friend ❤

[@EyeriStorms]

I’m so happy to have an update, I feel like I am re-conecting with an old friend. I’ve been watching your videos for years, I was a med student at the time and now I am a full fledged physician waiting to begin my masters degree. You have no idea how much your videos motivated me to keep trying my best, be it at school or the hospitals, since then I’ve also been able to receive an AuDHD diagnosis. Just wanted you to know how much your videos inspired me to study hard and always treat ppl with care and empathy. Love you ❤

[@christinadoherty3212]

I am SO PROUD OF YOU! That is AMAZING news!!!! Congratulations! Sounds like you have been working so hard. I actually was diagnosed with ADHD actually and it makes a little of sense now that I look back. I was honestly totally blindsided until I finally understood. Thank God for my patient neuropsych. He was the greatest!

[@Hi_Felisha]

So happy to see you back! ❤🎉

[@chinahagstrom9002]

So glad you’re back!! Missed your videos ❤

[@NoSleepFromBrooklynAdventures]

YES!!! it's so great to see you. Amazing you're doing death doula work...before you said that, I was going to comment, I think you'd make a great therapist! I still think you would, there is something about your voice, your disposition and then the combination of trauma you've experienced plus emotional maturity you've developed...you are a gift to so many, even if it's just sharing your journey here. You bring much comfort. My goodness, I'm really sorry to hear all you've been going through. It sounds like hell. I'm glad you're still able to do your art, you're very talented. I'm so glad you have that 'fight' in you. Thank you for updating. Much love from NYC.

[@shawnresor5565]

So glad you are well enough to make a video and update us!

[@stephisturn]

Happy to see you again, you beautiful, brave woman!🎉🎉🎉❤❤

[@luanaramos3599]

I never leave any comments on any social media, but I'm just so happy to see you back! It's really like seeing an old friend. Your smile made my day! 🥰

[@kaitlincooke8677]

So glad you’re back and that you’re doing well! Of course we’re still willing to listen 🥰🥰

[@shawniej5368]

So glad to have you back!

[@TinyPigy282]

I will watch any long vloggy video. Even if you didn't edit down and it was 3hours of talk I'd watch it ❤

[@heretoday788]

Nice to see you back, Christina!

[@BNHAalltheway]

[@motionless_horizon]

[@gothafloxacin]

Welcome back queen!

[@BornAgainFarmGirl]

We love you Christina ❤!

[@susang6193]

Missed hearing you and seeing your wonderful crafted items.

[@msnancylynn]

You were such a beacon in the darkness when my daughter first was diagnosed 7 years ago. She is now thriving and will finish college soon. Your words of encouragement and knowledge helped so much. So glad you are back!

[@chauna5413]

Omg so crazy I literally thought about you out of the blue today. And here you are! Welcome back!

[@layarnesudborough378]

So glad you are on this earth with a smile… ❤ Missed you!

[@deliseeh]

I'm so happy to see you again Christina! 😊😊😊

[@macgirl1234]

It's lovely to see you again, fellow zebra. I'm so sorry for all the complications but your unbreakable spirit shines through

[@KrystineMariie]

Great to see you, Christina! ❤️

[@becca0668]

Wow your back , amazing.

[@khuddle731]

So glad you are back. Great to see your smile! ❤️

[@cendrillonatsea5006]

You have been through the unfathomable and yet you are here giving to not only us but others dealing with end-of-life issues. I am just agog. I hope and pray that new medical developments become available to more successfully treat and even cure the medical issues you combat daily.

[@NicoleWootten]

Welcome back!! So happy to see you back on my screen

[@thedarkangel-alj62]

❤❤❤ welcome back! It was a good video. 😊😊😊

[@stephtoffey]

Welcome back! You were very missed, I’m so glad to see your smiling face

[@nattieb9117]

I love that you're doing so much healing and growth, I've thought about you frequently through the last few years. I have given up on quarentine life because people around me can't live like that, but I've had Covid 6 times in the 18 months since I've been out of quarrentine.

[@alexandrac591]

It's wonderful to see you in a video again, and how far you've come. Plenty of hard things, but also so much art and a new calling to support people who are dying. I'm glad you didn't give up.

[@vampirebottom]

Your videos have been so helpful over the years; I still go back from time to time to re-watch. (Long live long-form content!) Welcome back, Christina--it's good to see you back and doing okay!

[@vampirebottom]

Follow-up, congratulations on your death doula journey! DD work/11th hour work is so rewarding. I miss doing it myself, and I love that you're doing it now!

[@patriciascheri4910]

God to see you back You are the true definition of A warrior Also a cat with 9 lives Bless you

[@lemon9974]

a WHILE is an understatement lol

[@helenanderson5998]

Welcome back Christina!

[@LetsTalkIBD]

I'm so glad to see you here!

[@ddaagggg]

Missed you so much Christina, happy you’re back! 💛💛

[@tiff2106]

I am so happy to see you back!!! 💜

[@wendythompson6727]

It’s so amazing to see one of your videos pop up in my recommendations! Welcome back to KZbin. You are as beautiful and genuine as always.

[@jillclement5977]

Thank you for coming back. I’m sure this video was a LOT of work and took a lot out of you. Please keep the long form and don’t worry about the video quality. I just love to hear your thoughts, and how and what you’re doing. I’ve missed you! I have chronic pain and brain fog and all sorts of other symptoms from Fibromyalgia and might be why I’ve found you a kindred spirit. But In some weird and wacky way, following your journey also empowered me to continue to seek a mental health diagnosis that I felt was actually correct. I’ve been diagnosed with BiPolar and Med-resistance depression and have been on some pretty intense meds for well over 20 years now. But I kept looking and reading and I finally underwent a 2 day neurological evaluation and at 60 years old was diagnosed with Autism. Now I’m on a different journey, which is wild and wacky and wonderful in some ways, scary in others, but I finally feel like I’m at least on the right road now. Again - welcome back!

[@Chickennugultimate]

Aww welcome back buddy!

[@Rtytanicj]

I feel like i just got to come home to my childhood home. I’m not crying, at all!!! We love you Christina!!!!! 💜

[@EBerryMc]

So happy to see you back. Thank you for taking your time and coming back when you were ready. It feels so genuine and a relief to see you in this space after taking the necessary time. It real does feel like sitting down with an old friend. Congrats on your death doula role, I can’t wait to hear about the role and that process. You really make an impact, thank you for continuing to do so

[@TheAllthatmattered]

So happy to see you back on yt!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@greyv9107]

So glad youre back! These past four years have been soooo crazy

[@rebeccak9199]

I'm so happy everytime I see a video from you! Looking forward to more Christina!

[@teresataylor5670]

I am so happy to see you are back on KZbin. Every now and then I would click on your channel to see if you had any new videos. Really glad to see you are doing great. Welcome back.

[@kateanderson4237]

Hooray! Lovely to have your long-form content back in time for EDS awareness month. The Dazzle clearly missed you! 🦓

[@dawnlaughlin4873]

welcome back, i have missed your videos! good to see your beautiful smile! i am very sorry you went through so much.

[@speedwaymethadrine]

nice to see you back! i've been coming back to your channel pretty much daily to see if you posted - i missed your videos! ♡

[@redisnd]

I am so glad to see you back. I discovered your channel accidentally about 6 months ago and was really worried to see you hadn't posted in so long.

[@phyllojoe5346]

Great to see you back! Zebra hug

[@jennjones256]

Great to see you back! Look forward to more!

[@davvy69]

Christina is back! Let's goooooooo!

[@12345JM]

So glad to see you back on KZbin. I’ve wondered many times how you are doing. You remain in my prayers. God bless!

[@hitchinaride94]

Loved the video, Christina! So glad you're back on KZbin!! =)

[@carolynwilson2183]

You have been missed! Glad that you're back!

[@lindafoster6649]

So good to see you! Be well!❤

[@raincoathaveli]

Wow I am so happy to see you again!

[@bayleighc.5843]

So glad you’re back. You are actually the reason I searched for a doctor who could diagnose EDS (you and Jaquie, may she rest in peace). It changed my life when I found your videos probably 7-8 years ago now?

[@katsmth918]

Welcome back😊

[@yesenia8415]

Welcome back! Im so glad youre back to posting. I find your voice and "story telling" style very soothing and love long videos. honestly this one was on the short side considering the time that has passed and all you have been through Dont limit yourself, tell your story, take your time. You have been through alot and i know alot of us would love to listen to your experiances in more detail and would gladly sit through long videos. Keep holding on and im so happy youre feeling better ❤

[@dixiem5062]

Girl, with you all the way, all the cuts,edits long forms. It’s nice to see you and wonderful to see you smile!

[@Dulcimerist]

Thanks for the update, and I hope things will be less chaotic for you and that you'll feel better. Don't worry about an upload schedule. People are subscribed and will get the notification whenever you're able to make a video. Just focus on your needs, but always know that you have a supportive community here! :) I had a gallbladder experience with my EDS, where I the pain was so bad I thought I was having a heart attack. It turned out my gallbladder was close to rupturing.

[@sarahagen756]

So lovely to see you here again! Looking forward to seeing more of your life again.

[@melsgalleria]

OMG Welcome back!! I have been wondering what happened to you over the last few years. Medical trauma is super hard to deal with, particularly when you are are chronically ill. You have been an inspiration to me after having two failed neck fusion surgeries already and needing to have a third one. I just remind myself of how many you went through, and say if she can go through that many, I can do one more. Right now it is just a matter of timing that I can't do the 3rd surgery yet. I just don't have anyone capable of taking over the things I handle long enough for me to go through another long recovery. Anyways welcome back and I look forward to more content from you.

[@aliese3831]

so glad you’re back christina! would love if you started doing lives on youtube or just vlogs!

[@Trekkifulshay]

Wow, you're back on KZbin!

[@Firetalon02]

We're happy to see you back and doing better. Thank you for all of your videos without them i wouldn't have been able to navigate through mine and my daughters' heds, mcas, dysautonomia issues as well as we have. I would have felt so lost and overwhelmed. Love you Christina ❤

[@spac3.c0ast]

welcome back 🖤

[@PixelatedFaerie]

It's good to see you ❤

[@elinevdw2331]

Your video's are perfect the way are, I like that they are longer than reels! And don't mind your editing, we are just beyond happy to see you again!! Thank you for posting again!! 🥰 You helped me immensely over the years!! Sorry to hear things have been so rough on you, sending you a lot of good wishes and strength!!

[@SolarVibeEnergy]

Wow amazing to see you back here in EDS awareness month, missed you glad your doing better I don't watch any other EDSers on here so it's great to see you especially since the only other chonic illness channel watched "Frey life" (I know your friends & started watching after you & another said about them) has stepped back for KZbin. 🌌💖🌌
