    Sending love and prayers for Ray and all of you. My son had a massive stroke in 2014. He was in his early 20's. What I can promise you Kelly, is you WILL have the strength you need to face this. Somehow that mama "bear" comes out and gives us extraordinary abilities to make it through each day. I'm happy to tell you that my son survived, and his personality came back 100%, which is what I prayed for. Physically he is still profoundly handicapped, but he did learn to walk again. It took us a year, but he got there in the end. He has a full time job now, is married and is a father. But I do know that overwhelming fear that you are experiencing, and I will be praying daily for you and your family!

      Patti, thanks for your post. I had a stroke 6 months ago (age 50 though)and I am still not progressively healing very well and this brings me hope. I am happy that your son has healed for the most part and is living a happy life. Stroke damage lingers forever. Xo

      Patti, Thank you for Kelly and family. But also for me. My son had a triple stroke September 3, and I feel lost and struggling with all my emotional rollercoaster every day. He is 40 and a father of 4. He is back living with me and I am still trying to find blessings in each day. I had one several years back. I lost my vision and it came back to me also. I'm praying for Kelly, her son Ray, and family. Thank you Patti for sharing your journey of recovery for your son. I needed to read that today also. Thank you for your inspiring insight.

      @@caroljolly4764 It breaks my heart to hear about your son’s strokes. My son actually had two strokes as well. The first one wasn’t too bad, but as he was leaving the hospital, he had the massive one. My husband and I also brought him home with us. We had to install hand rails, and have work done so our house had wheel chair access to the rooms and bathroom. I remember helping him into the car and lifting the wheel chair into the trunk, every day to take him to therapy. I’m 4’ 11” tall, so it was a lot of heavy lifting. But he improved slowly. Fortunately, he wasn’t married yet, so he didn’t have kids like your son does. This must be so hard on them. And, as a mom, we want so badly to take our sons’ place so they don’t have to suffer.
      But we made it through, and we live life now with joy and gratitude just to have each other. I am now very sick, and spend most days resting.... but I still thank God for life and my beautiful family.
      You will get there, but you are in the worst part right now. I will be praying for you, your son and your family!♥️♥️♥️

    When my daughter was sick and so many people said "I know what you're going through" she very aptly would say "no one knows what i'm going thru except me" She went thru Hell and rarely complained our kids are amazing.
    The nurses used to say "celebrate the small victories" so true.
    Love and healing wishes

    My daughter, now in her 40's had cancer when she was 9 months old. It was a rare form and rapid growing. She survived and I survived, it wasn't easy, but somehow the strength needed to endure was there, and it will be for you also. That was many years ago when doctors decided what was best for the patient. My husband passed 5 years ago, it was such a shock to find out that his doctor wasn't the last word in what treatment was needed, the insurance company was. it is so frustrating. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your son. Our Lord will see you through. God bless you both with healing and faith.

    I remember when Ray got covid and you moved mountains to get him home to care for him and still keep your family safe. I was sitting in my home being afraid of covid and worrying about my family. You were so honest then and so informative on how you were handling the care for Ray. It helped me to stop worrying and get proactive in case someone in my family came down with covid. Now here Ray, you and your family are in the fight of his life and you again give us strength with your honesty and openess about what you are all going through. I will keep you all in my prayers. You words move people stay strong.

    I swear I can feel your emotions come through and understand your feelings for your son. You're a good Mama. It doesn't matter how old our children are, they're still our babies. I've experienced the same frustration with insurance as well. In my mind it's criminal how sick and sometimes dying people are held hostage by insurance companies.
    . much love, and continued prayers for Ray, and for you too.

    I have never seen any of your crafting videos but somehow your first vlog appeared in my feed.
    I’m in awe of your strength and positivity at this incredibly difficult time. Your son, Ray, obviously gets his strength and resilience from you, even though you might not feel that way right now. My daughters are 31 and 24 and I don’t know how I would get through each day if we were in your shoes.
    I haven’t stopped thinking about you and Ray since I saw your video a couple of days ago. From the bottom of my heart I’m sending love and positivity to you all and I pray for the best possible outcome from the test results. I sincerely hope they get Ray’s treatment started ASAP. Thoughts and prayers from across the pond ❤️🙏🏻🇬🇧

I am praying for Ray...for his healing, for strength, for faith and hope. May he receive the top of the line doctors and the perfect successful treatment. I will also pray that you, Ray and your daughter will be guided to make all of the right decisions regarding his care and much love, compassion and helpfulness from all who you will encounter on this path. It sounds like you have an army of people supporting you and praying for you. We are with you!!

    As you started this with gratitude, I cried in thankfulness for your "fan-base", which is somuch more. I am thankful for so many things, but most of all that Ray has you on his side, his champion, his warrior mom. I have been watching your videos pretty religously since I saw your first video on his cancer journey, trying not to miss a single one. I have been amazed at your strength and "normalcy" in your crafting videos, as I know they are therapeutic for you, but also for all of us. Sending much love to you from crittersville, Saint Helena Island, SC

    Thank you for the update. Just know that my mama heart breaks & cries with yours❤️ During 2020 I gave up tv and made CZcams my main source of ‘entertainment.’ Because of that, watching my “favorites” a lot, I feel like certain creators became my “friends.” And you, sweet lady, are one that I feel like is a FRIEND. I needed positivity and your channel is one that I turned to for that. Your channel comes up quite frequently on my feed, so know that it brings Ray, you & your family to my mind very often for prayers. Funny how the internet can bring people into your life that you never would’ve met otherwise, and you feel like you actually get to “know” them and care for their well-being. So, sending much love & prayers for Ray, you and your family.🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

    Keep strong. I can honestly say that my family knows what you're going through. I was diagnosed with cancer at 19. I felt I had to be strong for my family. They said I probably wouldn't live over five years with the type of cancer I had. I celebrated 30 years in March. Anyway. You all are still in my prayers! Thank you for the update! Stay strong! Love and prayers!

      Praying for Ray's healing and all your family's emotional and physical strength. Our son has IgG4 and the journey this has been for us is dreadful. Our emotions have been ALL over the place as tjis disease progresses and moves to new organs to attack. Our son is 40, has a family, and it has bonded us all in ways beyond words. As a "momma", you never stop fighting for your children, no matter their age. Prayers sometimes are all we have. Please know many are lifting you all up in our prayers. God bless and keep the faith and fight up.

    Okay...another comment. I'm just so moved by you and your family. The way that you and Jeff are able to put your differences aside and come together as Ray's family is another testament to how lucky Ray truly is. It may not seem like it all things considered but if this was going to happen - the support system is so important in this battle. And you are arming him with all ammunition possible to wage this war. Together with an excellent medical army. Ray truly has everything he could possibly need to beat this thing. Sooooo many prayers.....so many positive vibes and warm wishes. ❤🤎❤🤎❤🤎

    Still send good wishes to all of you. As a cancer surviver since 2007. I couldn't talk to my husband about a lot of things. So having my private support team was really helpful to me. So it great that Ray has someone. Also hope you don't mind me saying this, but all of you should have someone to talk to. Not as a group but individually.

There are so many things I wish I could say to you, and I wish I knew all the right words to say. Just know that my heart goes out to you, and you are an inspiration to me. I look forward to hearing your updates about Ray's progress. God truly gives us exactly the courage and comfort we need when we need it. Love and prayers to you and your loved ones.

He knows exactly how he feels and what all he is going through. Know that this Storm that Ray and all of you are in, you are not alone. Jesus is in the Eye of this Storm with you all. He will see you through the tough times and the not so good days. My thoughts and continued prayers are with ya'll for strength and staying positive. Praying for all of Ray's doctors and his medical team that they come up with the best form of treatment to beat this horrible disease. Continued prayers for complete healing! We serve a mighty God! He's Got This! ✝️🙏🙏🙏

Positivity is important, please (I know its hard, my 38 year old daughter is being treated for cancer, 4yrs now) do your best to remain positive, it's not wishful thinking. Many more prayers out for him and your entire family. 🙏💕

    I had a port when I was treated for Breast Cancer. I am so happy that I choose that path. It is so difficult to eat during chemo. Meats were always the hardest for me to eat. No appetite but continued to keep the fluids in. I continued to try to keep normal activities as much as I could. I worked everyday but modified my schedule. I wish your family and Ray the strength to get through this. My support was my everything ❤

    I just saw your first video about this because I saw the title to this new video. I am praying for you and your family and all of the medical professionals who are involved in Ray's case. My hubby's name is Ray, so maybe that earns your Ray some extra good wishes. Keep positive, know that your subscribers are here for you. I saw that someone suggested that you delegate the conversations with insurance to someone who can be designated by Ray as authorized to speak for him. That might help save some energy for all your family to be able to stay positive. God is BIG! I will watch all your recent content, and go back and watch others that I might have missed. May God bless your channel, and give you surprisingly boosted support and income. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
