WHERE HAVE I BEEN? My Solo RV Life Swerved Head-On Into Chaos

[@violetchloe399]

Have some tears in my eyes as I'm listening to this. My beloved partner is one of Mayo's oldest original pacemaker recipients (1960's). He has had so many surgeries since and now his leads don't work and we were told his next surgery will be major thoracic in nature and he has a good chance of not surviving it. We met each other later in life and know how precious life is. Glad you made it in one piece and I'll be thinking of your mom. It will all work out with great patience and planning for that blizzard. We are just now melting from the blizzard we had a week and a half ago. Be well.

[@paula7091]

I've had a pacemaker for half my life, I'm 46. A pacemaker changed my life and made it so much better!

Robin this weather ain’t no joke. The RV can be replaced....You can’t. Glad mama is improving.🍀🍀

[@Carmencita1464]

Great news Robin that your mom is ok . I am 54 years old and in October 2018 had Open Heart Surgery. My heart was functioning 20% and didn’t know it. Thank God I was taking on time to the hospital. Now my heart function is 50% like it should be. Tell her to take it easy, keep active and be careful with those blood thinner meds. You be careful too with the weather out there. God Blessed 🙏🏻.

[@heatherrose111ONE]

If you are going through hell, keep on going! From what I have learned from your videos over the past 1 to 1 1/2 months is that you hit some major bumps in your road. I appreciate you keeping it real with us, no matter what happens. It is beneficial for your viewers that you report the good, the epic, the bad and the ugly. Wishing you and your mama all the best. Thank you! 🙏🏼🌄

SO glad you AND your mom are okay! 🙏❤️😃👍 Deb

[@cocokai9661]

So glad your mother is doing better. Nothing worse than being away from your loved ones during a medical emergency...I'm sending prayers for healing for your mother and sunny skies for you.

[@mycocoaone]

Be safe. I am huddled down up in Steamboat in my RV. Being a retired RN I am so glad your mom is doing fine after all that. Next time fly in the winter!

[@carolbrucecollett]

Oh gosh, Robin, I'm so glad your mom is doing well. Cherish her. (My mom passed 2/24) I pray you're okay in the blizzard. Please be safe!!

[@LAPGOCHINSTRUCTOR]

Take care Do you have any Ratchet Tie Down Straps or rope you can use to anchor your RV to the base of trees. Tie round any suitable anchor points on your RV the lower the better You can even use the front and back axles also remover any lose external clutter that can be blown at your RV Good luck You RV owners need to get on some 2 way radio system and start up mutual aid system using something like CB, Family Radio Service (FRS) or General Mobile Radio Service (GMRS)

[@pjt3887]

Those are some excellent tips. Thank you for your help and advice.

[@mariedykeman5208]

great ideas. As a child I was Hurricane Agnes in a camper. We tied everything to trees. We did ok. huggggs.

[@LJAyres-cb3vg]

Geez--I feel like I just got off a roller coaster after watching this! Few nomads can tell a story with such panache [I imagine you studied acting, too!]. We are all so pleased to know your Mom is okay, now. I'm sure she deeply appreciates your support. And we'll be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers as you ride out the storm. Take good care, Robin! You are precious.

[@staroceans8677]

Well, it's hard to top what's been stated by everyone, and it's nice to hear your mother came through her ordeal and you were able to get there safely. Also glad to see the rangers are vigilant of your presence and those of others. You're better stationary than moving in a blizzard. The weather's been extreme the last 2 weeks, with storms pummeling California all the way through to the Midwest. Although unnerving, I'm certain you will be fine. You were missed and hopefully all will be well. Looking forward to a tour of your new rig. Be well...safe travels.

[@mjcubo2246]

I knew a man with a pace maker who eventually had to have it removed because it kept misfiring when his heart was beating just fine. Yes, he said it felt like a cattle prod was zapping him on the inside...very painful he said. FYI, if one is on blood thinners surgery is usually delayed a day or two so as to reduce the chance of bleeding to death from surgery. I work at a hospital and worked in the heart failure unit for 2 years.

[@thepropheticscribe1]

We use the accuweather app. Praying for your Mom. Live and learn. This too shall pass. God bless you.

[@Jumpingoffthecliff]

Hope it all works out. My most watched video is of a harrowing ride over Monarch Pass in our RV. Here’s hoping the blizzard misses you and the passes are dry! Glad your mom is doing well. It amazes me how the medical community doesn’t want to listen to the patient!

[@elisabethseeger5837]

I really did miss you! What a story! I’m glad your mother is doing well - so hard to be separated from loved ones when they are in trouble. I wish you, your mother and everyone In the storms path safety and blessing. Amazing test of your new rig. Can’t wait to see what you got. Be safe. Betsy

[@staroceans8677]

Well said!

[@lindamurray5503]

So glad your mom is ok, my son and daughter in law both were in the blizzard. He ran off into a culvert with his Ford bronco and had to walk a mile in the blizzard home and she got stranded at work for 24 hours, but both are safe. You please stay safe and warm. I've lived in Colorado for over 30 years and I know how brutal the blizzards can be. We're now in Texas and experienced the winds yesterday 75 mph winds and rocked our travel trailer. Our satellite dish flew off the slide

[@missypowers8242]

I told my husband something was up!!!! Be safe! So glad your mother is well. You are a good daughter. ❤️

[@andreaastwood3756]

So glad your Mom is doing well. I lost my Mom in October and a few days before, we were headed out of town for the weekend to do a volunteer construction project. As we were getting ready to pul out, I said to my hubby, i just wasn’t comfortable with leaving her. He had been telling me to stay. We had been so looking forward to this project. I finally decided I had better stay with her. We opened up the fifthwheel, i packed a bag and went to my Mom. So, so glad I did. things did not go well and she past away the next day. So, as you said, always follow your gut when it comes to family an illness. Even if things go well, you are still glad you were there. 💕

[@lilbird1962]

Thank God your Mom is okay as well as you gonna keep you in my prayers. Be safe!!!

[@laurenkeon3267]

Hi Robin. So good to know those rangers are concerned for u and keeping a watchful eye. The wind brings up an interesting issue. When u purchase a rig, is it mentioned anywhere about wind gusts in relation to safety of your rig, or is it assumed people will just hunker down and ride out storms.....which in your case doesn’t mean much cause you’re still a sitting target. Very scary actually. Praying for your safety. As a ICU nurse of 26 years, your mom’s issue with the pacemaker is a first for me. Sadly, we need to somehow convince physicians we KNOW when somethings not right. Thank God she persisted. This is definitely a teaching moment for those who cared for her in that hospital and clinic. The outcome was positive but obviously, this could’ve been a much different tale. Can’t wait to see your new rig and how she fared during the storm. Take care. We got ur back missy!

[@JanetBullard]

I thought I had missed a notice. So glad your Mom is recovering quickly. Stay safe. Stay warm.

[@elizabethmcgrath1923]

A trick we learned to insure the leads seat properly is to wear a shirt with cuffs that button and pants or skirt with belt loops. Tie a string/yarn whatever... from the button hole in the cuff of the shirt to a belt loop in the waistband of pants/skirt so that it reminds her not to lift her arm too high. My father-in-law and mom found this very helpful in those very early days of their pacemakers. Glad your mom was persistent! Be careful out there!

[@caldeira99]

Please be safe Sweetie... You are my hero... This storm will soon pass, spring will pop up so fast all well be forgotten. Butterfly's will appear soon to heal your, heart. You are so loved by so many. We all get to travel with you on this grand adventure, Thank you for being you, I love the way you see the world. Thank you for sharing all you do. ;-)

[@BoxVanDee]

So glad you and your Mom are okay. Be safe first of all. Don't travel until you are sure please!

[@barbaramarion3540]

I’m so glad to hear that your Mom came through okay.

[@suefreivald7031]

picked up our little Casita travel trailer in Rice, Texas in January and spent the better part of two months visiting friends from east Texas to the Big Bend country. Absolutely LOVE the Casita. The weather generally sucked the whole time we were traveling :~) but the journey itself was blessed. Had to be back in Virginia by March 17th (got home on the 10th) and spent about two weeks dodging polar vortex, putting RV antifreeze in our holding tanks, thanking God for the forsight to add the propane heater to our Casita and watching three or four weather sites. Storm Tracker kept us out of trouble avoiding Alabama and skirting Atlanta. Glad to hear you are (so far!) safe and that your Mom did so very well. Keep us posted. You and your family are in my prayers.

[@Kay-Elle6]

You’re in the middle of that blizzard while I am typing this now. Hang tight! Praying for not only safety but comfort too.

[@jeannette9804]

FYI...look into having an anti-sway bar installed on your rig if it doesn’t already have one. Additionally, I had what is called a safe-T-steer installed that made a day and night difference with winds as a well as passing semi’s! Was SOOOOO worth the cost!

[@facdafra8485]

Thank God your mom is ok. I pray you will do well through that snow storm. Look forward to seeing your RV.

[@thoughtsinpassing2968]

[@kathybitzan7473]

Prayers to your momma. Glad things went well. Looking forward to Sunday. You keep yourself safe.

[@carolfarren6631]

Robin, this video made me emotional for a lot of reasons. The frustration of wanting to be near your mother when she was going through this scary event, the frightening windy drive, (I-25 can be a nightmare) and now this crazy Spring blizzard. I had to return to CO a couple of weeks ago but am very lucky to be staying in my son’s warm house instead of in my van. I am happy your Mom is doing so well and hope you are too!

[@theresapodrebarac-kc5132]

Stay safe! I hope you and your new rig make it through the storm. Glad to hear your mom is doing well.

[@laureldreinking]

Oh my goodness, Robin! I knew something was going on. I even prayed for you. I'm so glad you are safe. You will be safe. I'm so glad your mom is recovering. Even though the weather is horrible, you did the right thing driving home to be with your mom. Years from now, you will be so thankful for every minute you sacrificed to be with your mother. I have a long "mother and pacemaker" story, but I won't go into that now. If you ever decide to compile a blog about pacemakers, let me know, and I'll be happy to share. Again, I'm very thankful that you are okay, and I will continue to pray that God will give you wisdom about when and where to drive and that He will protect you. Take care.

[@travelingtimothy]

That whole section can be horrible for wind. They do miracle things for hearts but there is always the exception. You did the right thing in trying to be there. You have done your best now you need to take care of you. I would not do Ratón pass in this weather. Las Vegas has a great hotspring.

[@debra-vs]

Yes, always listen to your gut. I’m SO glad your mom got through her surgery with flying colors. Good luck with the blizzard! I’m impressed that the ranger came to check on you and your neighbors.

Fascinating! Thank you for the warning about the pacemaker! I’m so glad that you’re moms is doing great! You’ll make it through the storm! I’ll keep watching the weather and keep you in my thoughts! Stay warm!!

Although it is very unfortunate what happened to Robin's mom, it is definitely not a common occurrence with pacemaker implants!

[@ginaroberts2964]

I hope we find that you weathered the storm "with flying colors" looking forward to seeing the new rig! I was tearing up when you were sharing what your Mom went through....thank goodness she pursued it and they corrected the problem. We must always be our own advocates these days!

Hi Robin! So glad your mom is feeling better. Best of luck weathering the storm!

[@nfoss5656]

I have friends that live in the Denver/Colorado Springs area. They have been posting about the storm. Stay safe.

[@EightPaws_N_TwoFeet]

I survived the Bomb Cyclone Blizzard in a 34ft motorhome on i-70 near Limon CO. Pulled in my slides and faced my RV into the wind. There was no major damage. Definitely glad I knew it was coming. I constantly check the radar on The Weather Channel app and look for local news streams on the internet. Glad someone finally listened to your mom and found the issue. Stay safe see you on the road.

[@stephenbyers5128]

Go to a truck stop and get a cb radio with NOAA . Have it professionally installed. You can pick up the radio for about $130 . You will need an antenna and coax cable to. That will help alert you to up coming weather conditions including wind .

[@shellchenonceau7832]

Glad you are OK! 🤗🤗🤗 and your mom too!

[@mikemanjo2458]

Hey, Robin! Glad to know you made it there safely and your mom is doing well. My Dad had severe heart problems, so I understand that urgency of, “I need to be there, now!” I will be praying for you this week. I am praying that the storm will shift away from you, but if it doesn’t, I know the One who can calm the storm. Sometimes He doesn’t calm the storm, but protects us through it. I’m praying for that calm for you. About 12 years ago, we were in South Dakota and got hit by a hailstorm (baseball sized) and 65 mph straight-line winds...pretty scary stuff. I know you said gusts to 80 mph. I can’t imagine! Do they have any kind of storm shelter? Please take care. Many prayers for you and your safety. See you Sunday! Thanks for this update. Ready for the tour! ❤️(Jane O.)

[@peggybachler5952]

Thank you Jesus! So glad your mom is doing well. You poor thing, you had me crying!

[@josephconnor3531]

Replace your factory anti sway bars, front & Rear and install Bilstien motorhome home shocks and Sumo springs. Research them, it will dramatically help in the wind. My 32 ft class C was all over the road in the wind but now it’s like it’s nailed to the road. Much more relaxing to drive.

[@janekinzig3847]

[@dawnapeters3511]

Robin, hope you haven't blown away. I have family in Akron, CO and my neice sent me a video of the bad winds last night. So you are all in my prayers. Hoping by the time it gets to us in PA it slows down. She said it was a cat 1/2 blizzard. So I know that was really bad. Stay safe my friend. Glad to hear your mom has gotten the care she needs. Will keep her in my prayers.

[@ShirleyWiggerman]

I just now saw this video. Oh wow! I can't imagine how scared you have been. I would have had an anxiety attack for sure. Cried the whole time. Shook so bad I could hardly drive. My whole being would depend on calling out to Jesus praying else no way could I have handled that situation.

[@nettiewatkins6545]

I am a nurse and could write a book on how many times I personally, and patients were told "you are fine " when it was not the case. I am so sorry and pray for her recovery.

[@a1ananda]

Oh my bless your heart. What a sweet daughter you are. If you had asked your mom I guarantee you she would have told you to stay PUT with all that wind. I can tell you were panicked about your mom. I’m glad you made it safely!

If possible, point the RV cab into the winds instead of hitting the sides. Stay safe!

[@ceciliacoker1081]

Prayers for you and your Mom. My Mom had serious issues with pacemaker that she finally got worked out, that was years ago. She has been gone 15 years but your story brought her ordeal all back like it was yesterday. I was so lucky to have been close to her most of my life. Love all.

[@ladyinjoy1278]

NOAA Weather Radar and NOAA Weather Unofficial worked great for me last fall from Utah to Tennessee

[@jillsmiles]

You did the right thing by following your heart to be with your mom. We only have them for a short while and they are so precious. Be safe. I too wondered why I haven’t seen your video but figure you were out soaking up the sun somewhere! Boy was I wrong! Keep that heater running and stay warm!! Thanks for thinking of US during this time.

[@paulahubbard9704]

OK now, listen to me young lady. First of all, I'm so glad there was a positive outcome for both you and your Mom. Now for the advice! If you should ever have an emergency where time is of the essence and there is a potential for weather issues,throw together an overnight bag and get on a plane. I'm serious! This is why we have a credit card! When you think your rig could be lost, you could have been seriously hurt or worse, it makes me cringe. My daughter is in Denver and drove home from work in that blizzard with white out conditions, mid day going 20 miles per hour with her hazard lights on. Today, she's taking a snow day and will hopefully decompress after that ride home. Just like we prepare for other things in life, make your worse case scenario plans ahead of time so it will be easy to make the right decision based on logic. Ok, I'm done. So glad you're ok.

[@waytoson]

Just dealt with my momma having heart issues that ended in 2 procedures spanning 5 1/2 weeks time. She is fine now...but I informed my bosses that I was at her beck and call..period. Thankfully they understood. Prayers for you through the storm... Can't wait to see the next couple videos

My older brother has a pace maker, he's had it over 10 years... frankly I can't remember when he got the first one. He's done really great with it... glad your Mother got them to finally listen to her... hunker down I hope the storm isn't as bad as they say, or it will move quickly out of the area.

Could you maybe pray for your god to pay attention to some bigger issues...like stopping child sex trafficking, curing mental illness all over the globe, and maybe to stop allowing psychopaths to be born? I mean it's nice that he's spending his time looking after Robin, but there are some REALLY major social problems he could be spending some of his attention addressing.

I’ve been wondering what happened to you. Glad your mom is ok!

[@davidtrindle6473]

Some ideas for high wind camping: 1. If possible aim you rig in the direction you expect the prevailing wind. This presents much less cross section exposure to wind forces, and your rig is less likely to tip over end-to-end than broadside. Also consider letting the air out of your tires so you are lower and less buoyant, more hunkered down. 2. For next time, try to find 1 or 2 sets of some strong cables,set up to attach to the top of camper. Carry a sledgehammer and 2-4 1-11/2” steel pipes 1.5 to 2 feet long. Drive the spikes into the ground at a 45deg angle and Fasten the cables to the spikes, so your rig is “tied down.” If this requires more strength than you have, then ask your neighbors or park ranger to drive the spikes. You may alternatively cable onto nearby trees upwind. I don’t rv, but i have a lot of experience with high winds on land-stored sailboats. ps you should have a co2 alarm in any small living space thats heated. (Also a lesson from sailboating). I enjoy just listening to your stories even though im not ready to rv. On the positive side you will learn the wind speeds you and your rig can tolerate. Likely to give you more confidence.

Glad to see you are ok, and your mom is doing good. There is a website that I recently learned of (www.safetravelusa.com). It doesn't have an app so you'll just have to pin it to your desktop or bookmark it on your phone. That's one of the downfalls of it not having an app, you'll need internet connection/wifi. So when you go to the website, if you scroll down just a bit, you'll see the title of Traffic + Weather. You'll chose the state your traveling and it gives you a Trip/Route Planner and in the tabs of the Planner it shows an Alerts Tab and a News Tab. And it has a great Map Legend with great choices for planning your route. Then as you scroll down further on the main page, you'll see 3 separate maps detailing temperature, wind and weather. These maps do have a delay, but at least you'll be able to see and plan according. I do hope this helps you some. Again, happy to see your well. As for the blizzard, I do hope you'll get a chance to get passed this and get to warmer, safer temperatures. Safe travels.

Just a quick note to second your recommendation of the weatherbug app. Been using it for years, as I drive cross country many times. Weatherbug not only shows wind, it also shows how close lightening is as well as fire(s). It also has a nice radar feature to check out what (if anything) is in the area. Kari

Try Ventusky! It give wind or rain or barometric pressures updated every three hours. You can go hours ahead and see what is forecasted! Have fun and be careful!!!

So why are you not at your parents or a hotel? Should have followed them put when they left. That's just silly..glad everything worked out for your mom..✌

Glad your Mom did well with her procedure. Hang on, and put your face into the wind! Hope everything is fine on the other side of this storm!

WOW! What a story. Check the web site WWW.WINDY.COM, which has layers with sophisticated weather information -- including amazing wind details. After you get used to using it, do a show about the web site. My husband uses it all the time, and I call him to assess the weather for me, wherever I might be.

So glad you were able to see your Mom and she is ok. Please be careful and stay warm. It's good to know that there are other people in the park with you. And I am sure the Park Ranger will look out for you also.
