Before my daughters kidney surgery we found out my daughters kidney disease was caused by my blood disorder during pregnancy, I sobbed and sobbed and felt the need to apologize for some reason. She was 16 and my daughters perspective was the same as you brave mary. She looked at me with a surprized smile and said "mom, I wouldn't go back and change this life even if I could. This is my body and with out it I wouldn't have the perspective that I have. I'd probably only care about starbucks and fashion like the other girls my age. The lord will give them a chance to get to the place I am someday and I'm grateful he gave me that opportunity already." Perspective from the Lord...priceless. Humbled by your child...priceless. You're an inspiration dear.

Oliver is a dog and dogs can sense distress. When Oliver came over (at around 6:00) to comfort *Peter*, it was so sweet that it broke my heart. Peter's distress listening to this shows how much he loves Mary. Stay strong, you two.

Yesterday KZread recommended the "my sisters lung transplant story" video. In the middle of the video I felt the overwhelming urge to pause it and pray. And as soon as I began to pray an indescribable wave of peace washed over me. I felt a warm glow rest in my chest. I'm not sure what that means for you but let it be an encouragement that a thousand miles away with no way for me to know what was happening, God was calling for prayers over your life.

This video broke my heart. I loved how Oliver came to you because he knew you needed him.

I lost my son the 12th of this month six years ago and we were trying to get him accepted on a transplant list but hospitals kept refusing him because he was overweight. The day after he died he was accepted on a transplant list. Someone is walking around with his beautiful blue eyes because they were donated and I wish I could look into them just one more time. If I hadn't had the Lord in my life I don't think I could have made it through. I will continue to pray for you both and continue watching everyday like I have for the past year or so.

I think their faith is really sweet, but I don't think that it is what is important...I think (only MHO though! ) what is important is kindness...kindness and care & consideration of others. Our souls will survive death, I truly believe they have survived many deaths before and will survive many more. Religion isn't neccessary...Im sure if there is a God he/she/it would say...'love each other, not me...I don't need it, but y'all do...The meaning of life is to care for each other with love. that simple. But Mary & Peter are lovely souls regardless. A real love story.

The Dale Tribe and to Peter and Mary With Cystic Fibrosis witch I have also everything can change in a days time it’s like CF vs. body fight all the time if we have diabetes too it is. CFRD vs. Body bigger challenge then people with nothing besides pills but if we want to other people in our shoes they would fail. Mary write this quote down “ life is like a box of chocolates you never know what your going to get but I am glad I have my life with all of you. Huge hugs

"Do what you think you can't do" helped me so much over the last two days. My parents are elderly and I've needed to do more to take care of them. I have physical limitations that made it very difficult to do, but "do what you think you can't do" became my mantra for those two days. I love you two special people. God bless you both.

We are all here for you, Mary.

I didn't want to say it, but watching Mary decline I kept wondering when this conversation was coming. The only thing I can think to say is that if/when transplant comes, it does NOT mean you failed. Sending hugs and prayers a million your way.

I love you Mary! I had a transplant last May after waiting for a year. Even though I was waiting, I didn't feel like I needed one. My doctor kept telling me I truly did though. Even when I got the call, I told my mom that it wasn't time yet. It was very hard, very traumatic but God is faithful. He would have been good if I wouldn't be here today. The process is hard, but God is bigger than the process.

One thing you are not Mary Frey, is a baby. I am watching this in May of 2020. If only I could go back to this day in 2017 and tell you that your quality of life would change, I would do so in a minute. God bless you Mary! Peter, you are just a wonderful man. :)

My heart goes out to you Mary, I am praying for you and your family. Remember the Lord will never give you more than you can handle. Keep the fight going .

I'm at a loss for words aside from that my love is with you and that my prayers are with you.

Oh new kind of grief! I never thought I would come to feel close to someone on KZread. Watching you daily for such a long time, ridiculously my husband and I have grown to love you (Mary, Peter, & Ollie). It hurts to hear the new twist in your journey. Yet the reason your vlog caught my interest was Mary's smile. Ollie is adorable and Peter is so solid and steady, there, and kind. His smile adds to yours. He lends balance. My heart hurts for you but my spirit is enlarged. Keep your courage and thank you for letting us in.

Peter, when I saw you cry I broke down as well. Mary, I'm so sorry to see you going through this. :(

Mary, I only recently discovered your videos, and so am only just watching this video 6 months later. You are giving me such encouragement. My son is 22 and has a different condition, but a chronic one with an uncertain future, and as a Christian I hear so much about "God healing" and when it doesn't happen there is this broken hearted thing that happens, and it is so good to hear someone who has accepted the truth of their health position and yet still maintains a true trust in God. Thank you for encouraging me today.

Think of it as a safety net they want to put in place "just in case" whilst they keep trying - it may not be necessary yet but good to start the ball rolling given how long these things take. I've been in discussions about moving to a wheelchair in the last 6 months and similar fear of the unknown and it feeling finite - but a friend who did the same change 10 years back said it was really a lifeline for her so I have very mixed emotions, but she said it gave her freedom and, in time, opened her life up a lot. I guess there could be parallels with your situation.

She's basically made up of tumors growing often and everywhere, and many other complicated health issues. I was wondering if you'd check out our channel?

Thank you for your raw take on this, Freys. I had a really rough month with CF, and like Mary, I am usually a pretty positive and upbeat person, but this last hospital stay shook me to my core. I felt like things were going from bad to worse and no one could fix it. It hurt me to even think about God because of how upset I was. Your faith in even the hardest things is so inspiring, and thank you for reminding me that it is okay to cry! Love you guys!!

The way the Peter looks at Mary is just incredible, true love. Thinking of both of you.

I've been watching the Frey Life for a long time, it's like being part of the family. I always say 'As always, we will see you tomorrow' along with the video. I'm not a religious person, but love the positive outlook you both have. My mother past away in ICU waiting for a liver transplant. It was difficult process but as you said Mary, we're all getting closer and closer to the grave. She had 60 years of life, whereas kids with terminal illnesses pass away every day without being able to experience much of life, so I am thankful to have had the time I did with her. I hope everything goes well with your transplant journey, I'm thinking of you all. Lots of love to you, Peter and Ollie Boy, xxx.

Your mom and dad must be so, so proud of you. If my daughter grows up to have one-tenth of your strength and character, it would be the greatest joy I can imagine.

You two, as a marriage. Are a prime example as to what God wants in a faith based marriage. It's not about the joy and all the fun you have in a relationship. It is the trials and struggles, the obstacles that arise in your life. It's the worst days, the tears, the moments when the devil is beating you down. It's those moments that God has prepared you for to rise from these situations as a Godly couple. To grow and learn that without God you are nothing. To strive for that relationship with him. That your relationship not only together but with Christ grows as well. By putting your lives out here for the world to see, you are showing us how powerful the Lord is. What he is capable of. How with him in our lives we can conquer anything this world throws at us. You two have a an unselfish love that does not waiver, just as he has loved us. Thank you for sharing your story. Thank you for doing Gods work. Thank you for living your life.

As everyone else I cried a lot. I had an amputation nearly a year ago and I fully trusted God in that moment. And I cry too, but I still trust.

Psalm 138: 3 - In the day when I cried, thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.

I've never commented on a video before, but HALLELUJAH, GOD IS USING YOU AND PETER IN WAYS YOU DON'T EVEN REALIZE!!! I'm a nurse and have been watching your vlog for few months now. in that time I have gotten a foster baby who was 8 months old at the time. You have helped me so much! I can only imagine the crown's you are going to receive when you get to Heaven! Thanks for your witness to the world! thanks for lifting my spirits daily! And by the way, Brayla, my foster baby loved the original music. she would run to TV and dance and look for Ollie. So I have to go back to old vlogs to let her listen to her favorite music!!! Love y'all so so much!!!!

Oh mary ! I'm sorry to hear the information but I so proud of you for trying to still fine hope, encouragement, and faith in the Lord to stay as uplifted as you can. I'm praying for you and hoping you have the best treatment come to you!! I love that song!!

Mary is such a strong gal! when I watch her videos, some of her encouragement and fighting skills rub off on me. everyone with chronic health is a survivor if not a warrior! stay strong and hope your day was good if not ok and there's days that just don't go as planned. sending gentle hugs and support prayers your way

Thank you sooo much for those kind words...i hope you have a good day,i will keep u in my thoughts and prayers

Personally I lost faith in god so long ago but you guys have brought it back to me. Mary I am praying so hard for you. I see so so much good in you and that cannot go to waste. You're a fighter. I hope you get better very very soon no matter what you have to do.

I am nearing the end of the previous vlogs, and came to this one tonight. Mary, you are loved, you are prayed for, and I am so thankful to have found you two. I have type 1 diabetes. It is a source of fear and and guilt that my family has to deal with me on my bad days. Seeing Peter's love for Mary and how much it hurts Peter when Mary hurts, reminds me of how my own husband loves me and all does for me. Thank you for opening up your lives to us, and making this whole viewing audience part of your family. Many prayers and much love for y'all.

Mary, I cried with you, please know you are very much loved, I'm a cancer survivor, and watching you and Peter each day has got me through many a rough day, you are very special and so cry all you need, every one of your Subscribers are right there with you.

You are such brave, beautiful people. I'm so thankful you have Jesus on board for your journey. Bless you both. ((HUGS))

I have pulmonary hypertension and totally understand how it feels to see yourself getting worse and your numbers get worse. It is terrifying. In an odd way I sort of look forward to a double lung and heart transplant, granted that's a ways away for me. I know I will have a 50/50 shot of making it through when it happens but a chance to live a 'normal' life and be able to breathe would be amazing. Have faith and hope.

Hi, my name is Kat. My friends name is Kaylene. We're teenage girls who daily vlog our lives with chronic illness, vocational school, and being DJ's. I have fibromyalgia, and many other disorders/diseases and Kaylene has Basal Cell Carcinoma Nevus Syndrome. She's basically made up of tumors growing often and everywhere, and many other complicated health issues. I was wondering if you'd check out our channel? We're trying to build a community on our channel.

I've been watching and listening intently and suddenly realize I need a tissue..Mary you are in my thoughts and prayers daily.

Mary and Peter, Your faith is so encouraging to me! Prayers for you and your journey!

Stay strong sweet Frey family....positive thoughts heading your way !!!

We all love you Mary and we all want you to have the best quality of life possible. You mentioned your conversation with your friend, what if, the fact that when you aren't coughing your body feels good, this is the best time for a transplant. Your body feels good when you aren't coughing because you take great care of yourself and it's strong. You are strong. Having a transplant while strong will make it that much "easier" on your body during surgery and recovery. I am in MA and my friend whose father is a respiratory specialist and has CF patients had an organ transplant. She took great care of herself in spite of being so sick. Her recovery went amazing. I know everybody is different but we need to keep thinking of positives. You will get through this and you have so many who know you personally and those of us who don't who love you and are praying hard for you❤ I know this can't be easy, I remember how it was for my friend when it finally came down to transplant for her. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you. We will get through this together. We will be your spoons❤

I just watched this. It brought back all the emotions of when I sat in a conference room with a doctor who told me I had stage 3 cancer. I prayed for you all through this video that God will keep His presence known to you through all of this time.

I admire and love so much the bond you two have and the devotion you have for each other, always together and honest. You both are a great inspiration!

"Teach us to number days, that we gain a heart of wisdom" Psalm 90:12

thanks for shining your light on all of our lives, dears.

I'm a born-again Christian as well. And you have such amazing faith as I do. I will be praying for God's will in your life. May God Bless the both of you.

U2 ' s song, 40, is one of my favorite encouragement songs "i waited patiently for the Lord..." Happens to be my favorite Psalm, too. Thank God transplantation is an option, that families rise above their grief & make a selfless decision for a stranger they may never meet.

Thank you for posting this, thank you for sharing your faith in Christ, and thank you for not turning the camera off at the most difficult times. Your videos have made a huge impact on me. Thank you

I'm watching this video in bed struggling to get out due to my depression but you being so positive when things are tough gives me the strength to get up and live my day. Thank you and well done, you are so strong an amazing! ❤️

I sat here in tears listening to your testimony of Christ and your challenge in life. I needed to hear this today. Thank you so much for putting yourself out their and letting the light of Christ shine through you. You are a blessing to all. My God be with you always

Your love for one another is awe inspiring. Pure, genuine love. I'm crying along with you. Stay brave Mary & Peter. So many prayers are coming your way 💕

I always wondered if you were on an inactivated lung transplant list, now this explains it. Whenever there is a "worst case scenario" talk it is stressful and scary. Even when you believe in God's will, you can still feel what you feel. It's okay to feel what you feel, because that is how humans feel. I believe that God's will is better than anything that we could ever imagine or wish for. Keep up your faith.

Big hugs Mary. I had a feeling, with a hard as this last spell has been, that this was coming. As someone with chronic health problems, I live by the phrase, "Hope for the best but plan for the worst." I'm better prepared for the bad that way, I guess. I'm in a position where I'm hitting one of those health battles now. I allow myself to be vulnerable and cry on occasion, but then I push forward. It's all I can do. Providing you're transplant eligible, just imagine what it can be. The things you'll be able to do! I watched a 5yr old family friend go through the difficulty of a heart transplant. He waited a long time, but seeing him pink for the first time in his life, was such an amazing sight. They had a hard time keeping him down, even at a day out. Keep positive. At times it's a challenge, but we're up for it!We are only human.

Mary and Peter, we are praying for you and believing for your total healing and for peace and wisdom. We have grown to love you and so appreciate your candor and willingness to share your journey via these videos. Blessings.

One of your older videos popped up today and as an avid subscriber for years I didn't think it would knock my socks off the way it did. It was so meaningful to listen to you discussing the possibility of a lung transplant and how it would impact your life and how your faith made the brokenness bearable and also filled with joy as much as it might be filled with grief. I also didn't know how very much I needed to hear the lyrics of "Set My Heart." What an amazing lifegiving song it is.

'When you walk through fire, you will not be burned; neither shall the flame be kindled against you'. Isaiah 43v2

not how long you live but how you live what life God has given each of us and you and Peter have shown nothing but love for each other and also for others you are both a teacher of love for one another and how to look for the joy in anything that is right or wrong in your life you have taught me plenty and i am older way older so thank you and YOU both are a blessing from God

I'll be praying for wherever this journey brings you!

Mary, you are, without a doubt, the bravest person I know (through KZread, of course). Please keep it in your heart the love and prayers of the people who care about you.

Oh my goodness this was an intensely raw emotional video. Girl you have no idea how hard it was to hold the tears back for you while watching. I know you have so many praying for you and supporting the both of you in this journey. The Lord will see fit to what your path shall be. He only knows what is to come, he is good and will do what was intended for you and peter. It's very clear it was intentional he put the two of you together. Soft hugs for mary. Things will be ok either way Mary Our Lord always has you in his hands and he will carry you and give you strength. Love to you all and ollie of course.

Thank you so much for sharing this with the world. It takes courage to put something this personal out for the world to see and I wanted to say you guys are amazing!

I will never forget what you just said Mary "do what you think you can't do". Love you guys lots xxx

Praying for you, Mary. Thank you for being so candid. I loved what you said and I'm so thankful to have found your channel when my daughter was first diagnosed. You are a huge blessing to this Mama. ❤

Not finished the video yet but right as Ollie came up to you, my dog looked at my phone and gave me his 'is everything okay, mama' look. Dogs are amazing. I know it's not transplant, but I went through a time when I did everything possible for my spine and I remember having that 'this is where we're at' conversation about spine surgery. I cried so much. I wasn't in a good place with God at the time. I was angry at God at the time. I'm curious what your church services are like? Is it just Peter preaching for a bit and that's it? I'm Catholic so I'm used to the same ritual each week. I'm at a point now where I am trying every day to chose joy with God. Trying. Not always succeeding. You're both such a testimony to God's love and sovereignty and trusting in Him. A priest once told me 'it's okay to yell and cry to God, He already knows you want to and He understands why because He's with you on this journey and through the fog' (I was telling the priest how I felt like I was in a fog and God was on the outside of it and I couldn't reach Him). This is getting super long and I'm sorry about that, just wanted to give you as much encouragement as I can through typing. I'm praying you both through this journey.

I have a mass in my spine after a spinal bleed in 2011. I am not eligible for surgery due to the risk of further bleeding. It is tough because I'm the only known case quite like this. The closest diagnosis is Spinal Epidural Hematoma, but mine is more of a hemorrhage than a hematoma.
