One chapter, one day, one hour at a time. Whatever you’re working through today, keep on keeping on!

I learned that when I hiked up a mountain with a friend. I had a really bad day but it was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I kept looking at the top and felt totally hopeless. She advised me to only look at my feet and take one step and then think: I can manage one more step. It was really horrible and exhausting, but I managed. It's sometimes just one step further, just one more breath ... Thank you for sharing this and reminding me! 🤗 from Europe

hey sis, have you thought of including natural medicine in with all these antibiotics especially for your head pain. I don't have CF but I have heart and lung disease and I often use Peppermint for my headaches and CBD oil for pain. I say this because that Tylenol isn't good for your liver.

One hour/day at a time is brilliant advice. Completely agree.

That food looked pretty good.👀. Peter is tremendous help for you and Ollie. 👍 Sounds like your boating trip was fun.

I just got out of the hospital yesterday and I am still feeling pretty rough, so what you say about taking it a chapter at a time is a great life lesson. There are bad things in everyday, but that doesn’t mean it has to be a bad day. Love you guys and thank you for sharing all the things with us! 💕

Look at Mary! Killin' it with all of the life hacks to use the very last of everything!!! Good Job!!

Praying you have a safe trip and congratulations on your new home.

Peter you should look into glasses they have for you to wear with working on your computer!

Chronic illness warriors have to take each moment at a time because we never know when a symptom will pop up which can change your plans for that day, a week, or even longer. The most important thing is making it through 💜💜💜.

Peter is such a great help mate, just always does what needs to be done. Mary could not have a better partner, so lucky.

I hope that Mary will feel better once she is off the anitbiotics. It must be so exhausting for her not feeling good and then the coughing. She is such a trooper. And you are her rock, Peter. Love you guys

I’m so glad to know you’ve at least made it through the doxy without the super severe nausea the whole time. Doxy is common, but there are people who can’t keep it down, and will start vomiting even if out through a tube. I’m so glad this one piece was “easier” for you until the later days. I know it wasn’t easy, but this part is something I’m glad you didn’t have to endure the entire cycle. I haven’t been able to keep down a single dose of doxy for years (not comparing, just mentioning it because it’s actually kind of common amidst chronic Lyme fighters).

I did the same thing with the last of my chocolate syrup a few days ago 🤣🤣🤣 gotta have that chocolate milk!

I'm so happy I'm not the only one who makes chocolate milk out of the last bit of syrup like that.

I have a coolibar UPF 50 sun umbrella that I got off Amazon and it works really well for my sun sensitive skin and POTS. Better than a big hat. I can hide most of my body under it.

Ollie yawned on cue. Awww!

I remember dinner by design! I did it once or twice with my mom back in early 2000’s! Yea they had a big kitchen with all the supplies and recipes you made a bunch of meals you could freeze or enjoy right away! Was pricey if I remember correctly and that’s why we only did it a couple of times. Was fun though!

Around here those places to prep meals were called Social Suppers. We still have a couple around here, within about 30 miles.

Feel better mary❤ love and prayers to you both 🙏

Yes one chapter of the day

Yes. We have one of those places called Dream Dinners. I was I to it for awhile but got sick if it. Haha. My church did a day and we all made meals to store for a meal train. Cool idea.

Peter you can leave Chicken Breast in fillets in the fridge for no more then 48hrs. Your a top hubby. I want to send you guys some stuff from my business. But I’ll wait till you move.

That doxycycline is powerful stuff, Mary. Martin gets to take it when he has an acute flare up of fis chronic sinusitis. He ends up having the week off because of the side effects. I’m glad you’ve finished them and hope your team come up with a bright idea for you xxxxxxxxxxxx

I don’t want to sound like a hater but I have CF but I don’t moan, complain, share how bad my illness is and how it’s getting to me. Because who wants to watch that, I find it negative, maybe because I’m British always laugh at my illness and find the funny side of it, as I just like to share positively with others. Not “I’m illness watch my videos being ill” same again I don’t want to sound like a hater but I’m just saying what I see

Hi Guys , Mary I am so sorry you must fight so hard , but I am so glad you fight. Battles are never easy but Perter and Ollie by your side I am sure that has to be your source of strength . Was to go with the chicken Peter , soon you guys can just fly to SC . you eat so much chicken , but is is healthy !!. I am glad you had a chance to get out on the boat , yup there are many drugs that don`t go well with sunshine . Yeah for the last day of anti - b`s !! I so hope the new drug works well for you Mary , you have Peter and Ollie hoping for the same , plus 260,000 fans to cheer you on. Have a great evening guys , thanks for the video , take care , Gary 

My husband does the same thing with the chocolate syrup and milk too.

Peter - talk to an Optometrist about getting some computer glasses to wear. They help!!!

Okay, That was the first time I ever seen anyone make chocalate milk like that. You should have just drank it straight out of the bottle anyway!!!😂😂😂😂

I do the same thing when the chocolate runs out! 😂😂😂

I do the same thing with my chocolate syrup when it’s almost empty! Can’t waste a drop!

I drink straight out of the bottle

Yummy chicken! Love it all❤

I do the chocolate syrup thing too. 😁

Chewing gum helps if I'm nauseous, but mint can aggravate reflux for some people, and might cause a problem if you start coughing. Couldn't hurt to try it though if the meds aren't enough.

Doxycycline is so hard on the digestive system. Prayers

I think in North Carolina you will actually have a longer boat season. Now there’s a plus.

Mary, I pray this comment will find you feeling better.

Doxycycline and sun/heat at all I got a reaction just from being too hot at work when I was on it. Hope you are feeling better

My husband puts milk into the chocolate syrup bottle, too, but he doesn't bother to put the result into a glass. LOL

Does Mary, drive? I always see Peter, driving and running errands. I’m sure it’s kinda hard Incase she has a coughing attack. Mary, makes some narly concoctions. Those are always the best!!

they had one of those places i think it was called dinner by design out in the western burbs. I was confused on the whole portillos and chicago thing at first cause I didn't know you all went to college in my neck of the woods.

they do in minnesota those food prep places

Glad it's your last day on that med

U 2 are so perfect together!! Well u 3😀

Oh man I wish I could get that kind of chocolate syrup bottle where I live but they stopped selling it here some years ago. I want to use it as a water bottle especially at the gym 😁😂

Nausea is soooo hard!

Hope u feel better soon u know chocolate is bad when u have a fever makes it go up

Dinner by Design!

Are you on Levaquin? I don't take Levaquin or Tequin because of nausea that got worse the longer I took it and by 7 days I had to quit.

I have heard some grocery stores offer programs like that.

Y'all are funny

Would keeping some zofran by your bed help ? Like take it as soon as you get up before you make it downstairs to give it more time to kick in

Have you tried liquid Phenergan Mary? I have to take it all the time due to a chronic illness I'm dealing with. It helps me way more than Zofran. Just trying to help. Love y'all & congratulations on your pending move to NC.

Do you wear those blue light blocking glasses Peter when doing computer work? Might help with the nausea. Might also be the Emf's from the wi-fi?

❤️

Here's a fun fact to distract you both from the nausea, North Carolina and South Carolina are the home of the Venus Fly Trap. A new plant for your shelf? PS have you tried a really cold wet wash cloth on your throat for the gagging and nausea? It helps me, usually.

Do you have to sell the house your in before you move?
