- Life is unpredictable
About 2 or 3 months ago, Tina and I went to the Superstition Wilderness to backpack in Haunted Canyon. It started out great, but soon enough, things changed for the worse.
Don't take life for granted. Find what you love to do and go out and do it like today is your last day alive.
Oh, and maybe take a wilderness first aid course or two....
Wow. We are blown away by all the positive comments that we have received about this video. We thought that some people might have wondered what was going on and felt an update might be due. We truly appreciate each and every one of you and all of the encouragement you've given us.
Hearing all the other stories of other people's struggles puts things in perspective. Hope you, your friends and your families all stay safe and well.
Oh....And Tina will definitely still be around. We already have a couple adventures filmed that I'm working on now and plenty of (mellower) plans for the future. And if she isn't along on a trip, I'm sure it won't be difficult for me to get footage of her flipping me off that I can tack onto the end.
Well J you did show the gunshot holes in the sign and that DID lead viewers down another path... so glad Banditos did not get you!
The " vaccines " aren't vaccines. Glad Tina is Okay for now, but the long term effects for people that got the clot shot aren't looking good...
Glad better, I had similar experience few months after covid shot. Heard others similar. Maybe related who knows? Had covid shot just prior ?
Tina, you are very special. We love the humorous marital bantering in all of the videos you two share. Jerry, it's lovely to watch your concern and support for Tina. Get well quickly, Tina!
We have missed you Tina. Prayers for getting back to your desired level of fitness. Thanks for the explanation and sharing. A powerful reminder that we can’t take things for granted, and we need to be constantly on our guard for health issues.
It was DEFINITELY a good reminder to not take things for granted.
Great reminder to listen to our bodies, and staying together. Tina, feel your best soon! Jerry, and Tina thanks for sharing your lives and adventures with us.
A diagnosis of congestive heart failure ended my career in search and rescue. Fine ever since the initial complaint but too risky to continue as a rescue climber. Several years later my physician says he thinks I had a heart attack. Always have had high blood pressure, and on several meds to control it. Since living full time at 7000’, I go to the hospital once a month to have 500 mls siphoned off. They tell me I’m producing too much blood to compensate for thin air. But hey, I’d rather die on a mountain than in a hospital bed! 8 years with NPS SAR taught me a lot, not the least of which is never leave a party member alone(especially your wife!). And always remember, the summit is optional, getting home is mandatory. Slow and steady Tina, you’ll get it back. Good luck and keep on keepin on!
Sorry to hear about your health issues. Love the philosophy on the mountain vs the bed. I did learn that I get a little summit fever anytime I'm out there hiking. I will admit I thought about continuing to the cabin. But it was too scary at the time. Even the blood vessels burst in one of her eyes. We were sure she had had one, and were very relieved to learn she hadn't.
@@JerryArizona real glad she’s ok. You did the right thing. My wife was on the team with me, and twice she ran into serious problems. Once with hypothermia, and once with heat stroke. Both ends of the spectrum. Scared the shit out of me. It’s way different rescuing a subject you don’t know vs. one you love. I always got real nervous when we got split into different teams on rescues. I would be more worried about her than our subject. I bet Tina worries about you when she’s sitting at home and your dangling off some 9 mil rope in a remote canyon! You guys look out for each other, lots more adventure down the road. P.S., get a Jeep!
God Bless, having dealt with my own set of "random" health issues it can be scary... The best you can do is live your life and not let it impact you negatively... Easier said than done, but that is the best we can do with the card we're dealt...
Absolutely. That's the attitude you have to take.
So glad to hear Tina is doing better! Having an episode like that in town is scary enough. To have it happen on trail adds a whole new dimension of fear. Just like in your epic Superstition hike, you listened to your body and made the smart decision! Prayers that Tina is back up to full hiking strength soon…Love ya Jerry, but Tina makes the channel complete.
Couldn't agree more.
Omg thanks for this video, I have to say when we found your channel. We instantly fell in love with Tina, we love you too Jerry. But Tina, your the heart of of it all. Tina your personality is the best, your smile bellisima. Hope you continue to get better, stay sweet always...🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻We ❤️ you Tina ❤️
My husband asked me the other day, "Where's Tina been?". I said she was probably working or something. So thanks for the uodate. So sorry to hear this and so glad it wasn't worse. Take good care of Tina and we are looking forward to a full recovery!!! We love and miss Tina! PS - Jerry we love you too!!! -Lisa Arizona
We love your channel and watch regularly - such a personal and incredibly alarming situation you both experienced especially for Tina - we are glad you are okay Tina, definitely time to do as you mentioned with health and adjusting the sails so to speak and we wish you the very best in that
Thank you for all your incredible and great commentary videos and look forward to seeing many more
All the best sincerely
Appreciate the sentiment. This was definitely a scary experience. Since then though, her blood pressure issues seem to have resolved, which I am extremely happy about.
Scary experience for both of you! You guys are my favorite AZ hikers both for the excellent photography but also for the real way you present your experiences and humor you display. Tina: take good care of yourself and I’ll look forward to your return.
Definitely scary. I think I was in denial at the time and she was trying to power through it. Also, thank you for the kind words.
Ah mortality, I'm glad you listened to your body & didn't push it. Your videos are so amazing; I enjoy being along on the adventures. Feel better soon! ❤ Here's to many more trails.
So glad to hear that Tina is okay. Pretty scary! I am glad that it wasn't worse. As a nurse, we do tend to minimize our own health issues. You did the right thing by stopping and sticking with her. Tina, be well and take it easy coming back!
Tina--Glad to see you are on the mend. "Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore. You may not see me tomorrow" Bob Dylan.
So generous of you both to fill us in. Jerry is plenty entertaining on his own, but it's something wonderful "having you around". Please take good care of yourselves. Your support for each other is so endearing. Take your time getting to 100%. And even if your presence is limited at first, a little bit of Tina goes a long long way.
Tina, I am glad you are felling better and hope for a full recovery. I hope you don't have what some people I know have what they call Covid Long Hauler symptoms. Then, it could take quite some time. Some people who have been vaccinated or others that have had Covid their bodies reacted differently. I heard of a runner and hiker that since the Vac can't hardly run or hike anymore, so I hope you are on the mends. Best of wishes.
Thanks for updating us. We have missed you!
Glad to see Tina is on the mend. An inspiration for us all. Thanks to both of you for letting us into your lives. Look forward to your return .
Tina! We're so glad you're ok, and you definitely have been and will continue to be missed (Good one Jerry not cutting that part out 😜 ) Definitely feel for you because we know how it is to not be at your usual fitness level... we can tell you're choosing to have a positive attitude but that's not easy. I'm sure most of your diehard fans like us are happy to see you two do whatever hike you feel up to. Doesn't really matter to us, we just find the two of you entertaining and it always brightens our day! Sending speedy recovery vibes your way! -E
Thank you. I would imagine you two not at your normal fitness level is still better shape than 99% of us!
I hope you feel better. The exact same thing happened to my sister. She is also a nurse, perfectly healthy. She got the shot and caught covid just like you. It also affected her heart badly. She has had to get a pacemaker and defibrillator put in. Please take care of yourself. Be careful.
So sorry to hear! Hope she's doing better.
We do miss you Tina but please take your time. I have no doubt you will be back to your bad-ass, hiking, via ferrata slaying self soon enough. Jerry, your a good man! Thanks to both of you for sharing.
Thank you. She'll get back out there. We've already adapted a lot to do stuff she can safely do while she gets back to where she was.
I always had low BP until being vaccinated. Am now on BP med for having higher BP than normal.
Glad you are getting this under control. Take care.
Sorry to hear that. We're hoping it passes with time (and diet and exercise.) We'll see.
Wow, scary! So glad. You guys are doing ok now. My gf and I live in AZ and love your videos. We appreciate your knowledge, sense of humor and most of all, inspiration. If we see you at a restaurant, margaritas on us!
If you ever go to El Patio outside Camp Verde on a Sunday, you have a good chance of finding us...
@@JerryArizona you must be in anthem?
Miss you Tina....Have truly enjoyed watching you guys.... Praying for a fellow nurse
Tina's doing well. Appreciate the concern. She's now having a busy time at work that's cutting into the hiking time, as well as helping her daughter plan her wedding. But I'll drag her out with me every chance I get.
So glad you are on the mend (mended by now I hope)!!! Had a similar experience, but I was the patient (my wife is a ex cardio thoracic transplant nurse)..... passed out on a very easy hike (Deems Hill in Phoenix). Recovered after wife dumped cold water down my back and was able to hike back to our truck. Long story short, ended up having a 50-70% blockage in my RCA, no stent, diagnosis of stable angina, and heart disease, and now after 36 sessions of cardiac rehab I am in better shape than I have ever been, and symptoms are gone. Even though I have a family history of heart disease, I am 6 feet tall, weight 170 pounds and considered myself healthy and in decent shape. You can never judge a book by its cover! 😀
It sucks getting old. But it beats the alternative. Glad you're doing well. That stuff is scary, especially out in the wilderness.
That would be terrifying to be out on an isolated trail and think you may be having a heart attack with help so far away. SO glad to hear Tina is on the mend. Since you’ve had some father-away trips lately I figured she just wasn’t able to go along, and/or you just needed some “bro” time, lol. Hope she’s back soon. Y’all are my favorite, and since I’m also in Phoenix, I love seeing places I might not find out about on my own, or am just not up to going to on my own, like Battleship Mt, ha!
I'm glad both of you are fine now . Great to know we will still be seeing Tina as well ! Take care great partnering!!!🤓🤗🤗
Sorry to hear what has happened. The same thing happened to my wife. She was vaccinated, caught Covid and had cardiac issues including rapid heart rate and high blood pressure. Took several months to get back to baseline. Glad to hear you are changing your diet and exercising. Hopefully, you will be able to taper off the blood pressure meds. Take care and will miss you in the videos. Flip off Jerry for me.
That's the plan....well, except for the flipping me off part. That's just a normal day to day activity. Sorry your wife went through that but it's encouraging to hear it got better with time.
Oh goodness! I am so sorry to hear about your health setback but happy to have you moving towards awesome blossom health! Big hugs to you and Jerry 🫂 🫂 Be well.
Prayers for Tina’s full recovery!
Hi Jerry and Tina I was wondering why I haven’t seen you in the vids, Glad your okay Tina, and I do miss you on the videos please feel better and take care of yourself. Thank you for sharing.
God bless and stay well.
I always think when I see something really cool in nature, "what would Tina say?" I am serious, she is my favorite hiker on CZcams. Jerry is great but you make the videos work (and the scenery too) for me. You two are the best team on CZcams. I have watched all of your vids. Get better. Oh, by the way you always say "Fucking awesome" in my mind. I think I need to make a T-shirt "What would Tina say?"
Everying about this comment is awesome. Or, as Tina would say, f@*kin' awesome.
I would definitely buy that shirt!!
Thank you so much for your kind words. You are fucking awesome!
Couldn’t agree more with what Garland says! Hope you feel better Tina!
I would buy that tee shirt as well
You guys are awesome. Take care Tina, we were wondering where you were.
I was thinking you need "Jerry Arizona" stickers for your channel...
Maybe "how you like those switchbacks Tina?" With a characature of Tina turning around & flipping the bird...🤣
Love your videos. Thank you for the update. All the best to both of you.
Thanks for letting your friends know., get strong, get back on the trail.
Love you two, hope you heal
I'm so glad Tina is on the mend and her coronaries were clean. It's so funny that I'm just now learning that Tina is a nurse. As a nurse myself, I started watching your channel while I was on a travel contract in Glendale and wanted to explore AZ while I was there. It's funny how you know another nurse when you see one. Without even knowing, I picked up on nurse-vibes from not only Tina, but also you, Jerry. I think it was her use of the "F" word and tendency to not put up with shit. I felt a kindred spirit. I'm glad all is well and y'all are getting back outside.
I hike Wire Pass to Lee's Ferry every year...and every year...I watch the video you posted 3 years ago in regards...
Glad to hear you’re on the mend. I know my wife had a rough 48 hours after each vaccine and i can’t imagine what your body was going through getting actual COVID-19 at the same time. Take it easy and we’ll see you when you’re ready. You two are heros to us “not young but not old” people.
Thank you. Luckily, we did some mellower stuff since then that I still need to release, so she'll be around.
Oh my! My BIL had similar symptoms of high blood pressure. "I gotta go lay down NOW!" Hoping they get your meds right, and you are back to flipping the finger to Jerry soon! Thanks for sharing.
Don't worry. She's still in good enough health to give me the finger.
Been missing Tina… always enjoy her comments….definitely keeps you grounded 😂. One of my hiking mates is a nurse who worked Covid wards. A portion of our conversations has been about post Covid complications and after effects. The range of them is astounding…..obviously best wishes for a complete recovery…hope to run into you two sometime in a Mexican Restaurant…..Will be sending a pitcher of Margies your direction !!! Take care.
We will miss you Tina! But we know you'll be back stronger than ever. We love your videos.
As an avid fan of your travel and hikes, I was happy to see T pull through…and as an epidemiologist I also hope there is no long Covid in your future…hang in there, we are with you….(and ps as someone turning 68 I can relate to the diminished capabilities :))
Getting old is rough, for sure.
Jerry, My girlfriend & I just watched this video. We have been enjoying all of your videos and in fact it was you and Tina that inspired us to go to Zion & Bryce this spring. We wish Tina well and hope she makes a full recovery. It is because of you two that we are now committed to seeing all of our national parks! God Bless you both - be well.
Thanks! Best of luck on all the parks. That would be a dream for us. Tina's doing much better. She was able to get back out there last weekend and put on some serious miles. She did great.
Huh. I am a nurse as well. Post covid, losing my ability to hike was my greatest fear. Its been over 2 years now..and judging by our trip to the Smokies last week, we are FINALLY back to ourselves. The up hills still are a beast, but the thru-hikers passing us were ALSO panting and puffing, and we were not short of breath on the flats and downhills.
Glad you're back to normal! It knocked me on my back for a long bit too, but I think I've gotten past it. Unfortunately, Tina got the double whammy of getting vaccinated basically right when she caught COVID. No bueno.
@@JerryArizona Yeah. What kind of nursing does she do? Critical care here. My partner and I wanted to say if you two ever come down to South Florida, the Miami area, in Nov-April we would love to show you what may be the hardest yet most lovely hike in the state. We have done Robert's Lake trail twice now, and it goes through multiple biomes, and is beautiful in a very different way than your neck of the woods. It would be a different challenge, and would likely make a great video as well.
So glad she is on the mend!
So glad to hear she is ok. You guys take it as easy as you need. I appreciate the time and effort that you two put into every one of these videos. Here's to a speedy recovery
love your channel, happy to know Tina is on the mend. I watched your battleship mt. video last night… she is always a trooper! 🤝✌️
I am glad Tina is okay. She is one tough lady and I admire her so much for her adventurous spirit. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Appreciate the comment. This was scarier than the video conveys and I'm very glad she's OK.
Love your channel. Im a hiker and was diagnosed with BHP in Feb 2020. It took about a year of “little scares” mostly in my head, until feeling completely fine. Like you, im taking 2 meds. One difference, HBP runs in my family and i was 65 at the time of my diagnosis. So glad you are better and wish happiness and health, always!
Rosie from Dallas
Thank you! Tina is doing well. Hope you're doing OK too.
Glad you're doing much better, Tina. We certainly appreciate you sharing your story. Here's to a healthy future and more videos with you and Jerry.
Your wise cracks are sorely miss Tina. Hope your fitness gets back to where you want it.
Glad that Tina is feeling a lot better. Jerry you are a great support for Tina. You guys rock. 🇺🇸🙏
Oh my goodness!!!!! I have been having a similar experience. Holy smokes! I am an avid hiker, trail runner..have never had any problems with my heart, and after having Covid I was just so weak and fatigued, out of breath doing nothing and chalked it up to asthma, which Ive always had. Then, weird, different pain and heart palpitations began happening, bought an oximeter and tealized my oxygen was fine, but my resting heart rate was 110 to 140 at times! Never worried about my heart before, completely scared the shit out of me. Getting all sorts of tests, next week getting a holster monitor put on to see the irregularities of my new, fast paced hr(used to be around 55 resting), since my bloodwork shows nothing bad. Anyway, I am so sorry you are going through this, it is so frustrating! I pine for my hikes, I am sure you do as well. Sending you positivity and hope you get exponentially stronger and healthier as the days pass!
Sorry to hear you're going through that. C19 knocked me on my butt for a while too. Then, one day....I was back to normal. Hope you and Tina both have the same experience eventually.
@@JerryArizona Thank you, me too!
important video for so many reasons. Happy Thanksgiving.
Thanks for the update! I just saw this for the first time today and I thought just how fortunate you guys are to have each other and to "watch each other's back!" My wife doesn't care for hiking or backpacking, but never objects when I load up and go. I'm sorry you had to take the jab, Tina. Even if you wanted it, it shouldn't have been forced upon you...not saying that had anything to do with anything. But I know people who were fine, and now they're not. It's good to see you two have a great gift....each other!
Thanks for sharing your lives, and probably saving many ! I ‘m an athlete (64 now ) so am winding down a bit: but it really should be about interacting with nature, and retaining enough brain cells to so in the end .
Glad you are doing better Tina. I have missed you in the videos with Jerry. Scary when your health changes so quickly for a healthy person. Have heard of many heart related issues maybe tied to the vaccine but hard to tell. All the best.
She'll be in plenty even while she works on her BP. Just might be mellower stuff.
Glad Tina is on the mend.
How scary! Looking forward to more fun hiking banter with Tina back on the trail.
Your video's have been an inspiration to my wife and I since I just retired. I'm learning from everything you've shared and encouraged to take on some adventures; other's I'll leave to enjoy from your channel. Thank you for sharing such a personal story and thank you for your awesome videos. I'm rooting for your return to 100%.
Much love and healing to Tina.
She's been doing fine. Appreciate the positive thoughts!
Thank you for the update, and I’m so sorry this has been happening. I appreciate this channel so much and adore how the two of you interact. Keep getting better Tina!
Wishing you the best.
We miss you, Tina.✌️
Jerry, I pray your wife makes a speedy recovery. Physically it's not fun getting older and more fragile.
I just stumbled upon your channel about a week ago and am loving it. Your filming and editing skills are tremendous, and your videos are both educational and hilarious! Plus I love your outtakes!.
My wife and I are in our 60's and can't do the long hikes but we do what we can. We live in Michigan and last September we did the South Kaibab to Phantom to Bright Angel trip but we did it in 3 days camping at Phantom and Indian Gardens. Loved every minute of it but that is a big hike for us. This fall we're spending two weeks in Southern Utah to do the Mighty 5. Getting pumped for that and your videos are helping in the research.
Keep up the fantastic work and both of you stay safe and healthy!
Thanks! And I wouldn't say you 'can't do the long hikes'. You just hiked the Grand Canyon!
Enjoy both of you very much, excellent work in putting together your channel. Take care of yourself and each other. From someone who has had heart issues (MI and bypass, etc) I immediately picked up on the heart symptoms. 22 years later I'm still hiking and doing trail work. Blessings to you both.
Thanks for this. That's good encouragement. I can only hope we're still out there in 22 years. I may be more into yelling at people to stay off my lawn by then, if I'm lucky.
No wonder Tina was MIA. Sorry to hear she got sick, but glad she’s back on the trails. My wife and I both experienced something similar after being vaxxed and haven’t felt quite right ever since. All the best to you two and stay safe and healthy.
Thank you for sharing. I’m so happy you are recovering. Slow and steady. You both are such a great team.
Love from Colorado. Get better soon Tina.
Many prayers, and get well soon!!
Glad to hear Jerry...all the Best to you and Tina...I'm sure she'll be back where she wants to be in due time.
Good to hear Tina is ok. Love your channel you to do amazing videos. Both of you stay safe.
So glad to see you back..we enjoy the banter between the two of you and we love the videos, so DO take it easy, take care of yourselves and laid back are just as awesome...love you guys. Make yourselves the priority!
I just saw this video, after a year of this scary experience. I’m sorry this happened to Tina and you, which definitely made you concerned and maybe confused at the same time. And I’m happy that nothing serious happened to Tina and she seems be much better now. We love your adventures and sharing of your beautiful life together. Stay safe and explore more 😄
Keeping fingers and toes crossed that Tina gets through this. She is a tough cookie which is probably why “rest of the body” “compensated for underlying issues”. I hope and wish for speedy recovery. Between covid and trail injuries you guys just keep having to overcome all these hurdles. I hope Tina does not loose her contagious smile and that Jerry gets his hiking BFF wingman back with him!
Getting old is no fun. But as my father used to say, 'it beats the alternative.'
Our very healthy 27 year old son experienced the exact symptoms that you experienced, he is unvaccinated, tested positive for Corona Virus, now when I say healthy , he's incredibly fit , I can't post he's picture here but if you saw him you would say no way. He was hiking one of the popular urban trails and had to be taken off trail by his friends and went to the ER, like you he was hypertensive, tachycardia, SOB, chest pain. Turns out, he had Endocarditis. He's been treating successful and doing great. Happy to know that your 👍 OK, looking forward to your next hiking adventures
That's horrible. Glad he's doing OK.
@@JerryArizona thank you, glad to hear Tina is doing better as well
Appreciate the humility. Take care of each other. Look forward to you being back to health and more videos. Cheers.
My husband and I watch your videos regularly. I’m in awe of the trails you guys have done. Jeff and I like to run trails and appreciate the enthusiasm and challenges you guys have on your hikes. Listening to Tinas experience really got to me. I had the same type of experience six months ago after my second dose. It was a scary. My blood pressure was high when I went to the emergency room and my heart rate was low. I went to the cardiologist, he put me on blood pressure medication and ran a lot of tests. Like you I had never had issues with my blood pressure before. All test came back normal/clear. I am now off the blood pressure medication and seem to be doing well. I went from running to hardly being able to walk to back to running. Finished my first half marathon, two months ago I didn’t imagine it was possible. I really hope and believe you will be just as strong as before. And will fully recover. Thank you guys for sharing.
Thanks for this. Very encouraging. We're glad that the 'major' causes were ruled out and are hoping it will pass with time. A little better diet and more exercise won't hurt either.
Feel better, Tina. 🤗
I like watching the videos of the 2 of you on adventures. I'm glad you're on the road to being back to normal, I wish you the best.
Jerry not cheap but look at full red light therapy panels. What this does is boost ATP and cellular mitochondria function. Also load up on creatine because it will increase ATP. Keep up on exercise/ strength train. Good luck Tina you’ll be back on the trail before you know it!!
I'll check that out. We're already working on getting healthier. Much easier now that she got the clearance to exercise.
Saw this video and my heart sank. I have really enjoyed your adventures, especially Tina giving Jerry a hard time with a smile on her face. Your videos have given my wife and I (58 and retired) confidence to go father in our own adventures. We own a class B RV with a goal of visiting every national park and each NCAA championship at least once, there are over 60 sports to see. On our last trip to Death Valley we did a hike that we wouldn't have finished without watching some of your scramble videos. Thank you.
Covid STINKS and I hope they can figure out what is happening. I got Covid last month after going to the NCAA Men's Hockey tournament, our first championship since Covid. I have many food/environment allergies and it now feels like I'm having reactions all the time, my asthma is barely controlled. I am fully vaccinated and almost always wore a mask except at the last event. I recovered quickly due to monoclonal antibodies, they work extremely well but that doesn't mean your body returns to your baseline. I hope Tina finds a good healthcare team and they are able to address it.
I also wanted to thank you for talking about the symptoms associated with women's heart attacks. They are not the same as men's and too many people don't realize they can vary significantly in women. Both my mother and mother in-law hard heart attacks that were not addressed quickly because people around them did not realize they were in trouble. My daughter is an ED resident and I've heard from her how many individuals in healthcare and the public still don't realize the differences and we lose too many women as a result.
Looks like you just posted a video on an excursion to Lake Powell, glad you are still getting out and hope you get back to 100% soon. Love ALL of the videos, Jerry looks like you do most of the video shooting and editing. I enjoy your hard efforts, learning about new adventures that helps me plan when we take a trip out west, we live in Minnesota. I really enjoy the voice overs, especially when your sarcastic wit comes through, which is almost always. Please take care.
Thank you. I hope you get back to 100%. It took me about 1 1/2~2 months and I still don't have my energy levels back after 5. But it's getting there. We're hoping Tina gets back to 100% eventually. It just takes time. Unfortunately, they didn't offer any treatment out here other than 'go to the ED if you think you may be dying.'
Lake Powell was a good time. Even if you aren't to 100%, there are still ways to enjoy the outdoors.
I appreciate y’all keeping it real in this video, and that you’re working together to get through this. Y’all will be back in the groove, just keep on pushin’ on. Wishing a speedy recovery your way.
I absolutely adore you, Tina!! I am so glad you are getting back out there, even on the 'mellower' hikes!!
I'm thankful you have each other! Tina, prayers to you and hoping for a quick return to 110%! I know it is a serious topic but the first thing that popped in my head was 'oh no you won't be able to...' and then Jerry chimed right in perfectly with: 9:52 ! Stay safe you two!
Glad to see you're figuring it out. Thanks for all your inspiration, it's been great to watch your videos, see your relationship and passion for life.
I am really sorry to hear about this Tina. I hope you get stronger soon. Be well!!
Thank goodness! My friends and I LOVE Tina. So glad y'all have a treatment plan in place.
i had no idea tina was a nurse ! jerry, i am going to guess your not a doctor . when i was 49 i had throat cancer ! i didnt smoke or drink, was a runner and triathlete in tremendous shape ! doctors told me it would take a year out of my life ! feeding tube for 9 months, very difficult chemo and radiation in patient. as soon as i could i was walking, then biking and finally running. it was a slow process. i felt like i was robbed, a thief stole my health. i was mentally motivated to get my health back and i did. now it feels like a bad dream ! you can do it too, i am rooting for you to recover your health. i predict a successful outcome, tommy montana
Wow. That sounds horrible. Chemo is horrendous. But you're right. You get knocked down, you just get back up.
Love you guys and can't express how glad I am to hear you are doing well.. Continue to keep the positive attitude and keep getting better.
Thank you. We will.
Oh Tina what a scare. You are one tough chick; however ~ you have Jerryeee, super buddy, friend, companion, husband and ~ the go getter for take out Mexican. Be safe and take good care of yourself... & stick together. Meanwhile ~ miss you.
Have missed you Tina. Thanks for this video. Prayers and positive thoughts for you. Life can really throw curves at times……we started out to hike the Colorado Trail in June 2020. It was over 100 degrees in Denver then. We made it to thru the second section when I had severe issues…I ended up calling for help on my Garmin and was evacuated out …..long story short, we got off the trail and return home immediately. I immediately went to Urgent Care to the doctor because I could not stand or put any weight on my left leg. Long story short, I had a massive blood clot in the leg plus dozens and dozens of smaller blood clots and was immediately sent to the hospital. I was given blood thinners by IV……no I must take Xarelto daily the rest of my life. Luckily, the blood clots did not cause an embolism…..but it took a while to get fitness back so I can once again hike. Take care Tina…….you and Jerry have been an inspiration for us(my hubby is 73 and I am 70) and we love to watch your adventures and even have done some of them.
Wow. THAT would be a scary experience. So glad things turned out well for you!
Ive heard from several of my hiking friends who got the vaccine are struggling with similar side effects. Its so frustrating. Im sorry to hear this guys. I didnt get vaccinated but got the vid twice and both times when I felt the worst I went hiking and strangely enough I felt much better when I was hiking as opposed to just staying home on the couch. I couldnt imagine not being able to get back out there like before. Heal up. Take it easy. Stay outdoors as much as you can !
Wow. Hope you will feel better soon. Take care Tina.
Thank you for the concern. She is doing much better. Just needs to get out on the trail more, but lately her work has been crazy. She'll get back out there though.
If you want to do some research, may I suggest Rumble, it's YT minus the censorship. Also, they are growing rapidly but have almost no hiking videos, if you ever start posting there I'd sub in a heartbeat. Love you guys, get well Tina.
Heart issues are scary. Glad you’re coming back. My family has Brugada Syndrome, a genetic mutation. Still active but 3 surviving generations with pacemakers!
Sorry to hear, but good that you know what you're dealing with and can live with it.
OMG! The Tiger Lady is now the Tiger Lily!?! Welp you said it, life is certainly unpredictable. However, more or less welcome to the club. Can only speak for myself, but am thoroughly confident speak for hundreds and hundreds who appreciate your channel cuz we too had major bumps in the road where we had to eventually surrender our will to be active and for health reasons now watch other's adventures vs living them. Moderation is key, Thank you for sharing cuz we all need to hear it and\or be reminded. Alaikum Salaam
She'll get back out there. We just have to make some adjustments and work up to some stuff. But even before this I've been acutely aware of how fast we're getting old and what we can do today we may not be able to do tomorrow.
So glad Tina is doing well. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us. 😀
I was one of the people wondering where you have been. I am glad to hear you are doing better and getting better. Looking forward to seeing many more videos with you in them, Tina!
Sending you love and healing energy! We all adore you so take good care of yourself and know we're all picturing you healthy and happy!
