"I'm like a part-time pancreas now" officially fav thing ever

Hey lovebutts. ♡ Here's what's been going on with me recently. How are you all doing? I've missed you! :(

The description lol 😂

part time pancreas lololol I am amazed how okay you are with needles yikesss. Anyway brave lady good luck with your new health care journey! I'm so sorry you had to go through all this aaak

Respect for not clickbaiting this video Emma, appreciated.

As soon as you started listing off your symptoms I knew it was diabetes:( I'm sorry that's really hard to go through but I promise it gets so much better. My little sister has type 1 as well and she is doing fine! It takes some time getting used to but once you get yourself on a schedule and understand whats best for you, it will get a lot easier. My little sister has had it for 11 years now and thankfully she has been doing great, as long as you have it under control you wont have to worry about all those scary things that could happen to you. My sister is currently using a pump to manage her blood sugar and she lovves it! I know you mentioned you were nervous about using one but if you look into it you'll see its not too bad. Of course everyone is different though so if you're uncomfortable just do whatever is best for you just please please please know you can live a LONG HAPPY HEALTHY life with Type 1 Diabeties, you're not alone! Millions of people go through everything you're going through right now and its a tough community of people that just keep fighting to find a cure and live they're life❤️ Sorry for this whole spiel just wanted to let you know everything will be alright. Much love for you Emma!! Keep us updated on how you are💗❤️💞

Hope youre feeling much much better but Im glad youre okay!! Great job paying attention to your body and catching it before it got deadly. Super happy to have you back whenever youre ready. By the way, your description is hilarious lol.

I've missed you Emma, I'm so glad you're doing better. Please take care of yourself, your health and wellbeing is most important.

Emma! I'm a medical student and we learned all about diabetic ketoacidosis -- it is such a scary thing and I am so glad you were able to pick up on the signs and get help before anything too serious happened. Your explanation of what happens to your red blood cells was perfect! Type 1 is often ignored and just remember that is is NOT your fault (like you already said). Our body loves to do funny things that sometimes leaves us sicker rather than better. I hope you are feeling better and am praying for a healthy recovery! Take all the rest you need -- much love!

I'm so glad you're okay! Do you watch Madeyewlook? She's type 1 too and does a lot of awesome work with charities and awareness!

I have type 1 diabetes. It's an autoimmune condition, there is nothing you can do to cause or prevent it. I honestly hate that it is lumped in with type 2, because it is nothing like type 2.

We're all here for you, all over the world! ❤️✨ thank you for giving us an update.

Taking a break from Brad's live stream to hang out with his only redeeming quality: Emma!

When you started to list your symptoms, I instantly thought... diabetes type 1, I've had it for 17 years now.. (24 now) And I am not alone my sister (type 1) and father (type 2) also have it. And yeah it sucks, it's a continues struggle.. and most people don't get it (that it's a serious thing) because you look healthy. And I have the same thing with the insulinepump.. just don't like the idea of all the tubes (makes me feel like a sick person all of the time). So I also need to inject myself 4 times a day and do all the other things. I wish you all the luck in the world, know you are not alone! Sometimes it will suck, but you more or less get used to it eventually:) People around you will also learn to help you! So keep being positive and everything will turn out fine:) Ps: a few tips from a diabetes veteran: - always have something to eat with you! (Liquid works best when you have a low bloodsugar) - also always take your insuline with you - make sure you have a card that says you're a diabetic, in case of emergency - and lastly keep on being positive:)

So happy to see your face, missed your videos ❤️❤️

I admire you for keeping a positive outlook

I hope you're feeling better now. My boyfriend suffers from T1 and I can't say much from his perspective but as his girlfriend, it's terrifying to see him having ketoacidosis. I know for sure though that every diabetic are so strong to fight this every day. One piece of advice I have though is try to make peace with the illness. It sucks and is so unfair, but it makes you stronger ❤

that is way, way more than anyone should have to deal with! I'm so sorry my dude. you are extremely brave and strong and capable. wishing you good health and happiness ❤

i admire how strong you are and gosh it must suck. i hope everything gets better soon! getting into the routine of it all soon is hopefully gonna stop it from consuming all your life right now. i really really hope for the best because you really do deserve it!! and i think it's great of you to put up a video about this, cause it will definitely raise some awareness about diabetes, which is not a topic you often hear about!! and what I've been up to? i just wish i get into my dream uni and that my life will turn out okay. pretty mundane stuff :)

Emma, I watch you for about 4 years, I never ever write a comment because I'm insecure about my english. But now i must tell that I love you and wish you well. Sometimes bad things happen to good people to make them even better. I know exactly what you are going through right now, I have diabetes in family. It's hell right now, but you will manage. I know you know all these things, but I had to tell you. You are one of the most inspirational people in my life, you seems so kind, talented and humble. I'm heartbroken to hear about your struggle. Hope you will feel better soon. ❤️ Lots of love from Prague ❤️ P.S. and sorry for my English, I hope you will understand what I was trying to say

As soon as I heard you say diabetic, I cried for you. Cried because my family has all suffered from diabetes. I'm 22 and I know nothing else. It's extremely exhausting and it takes alot of patience. No one will understand the struggle until you've lived or experienced it, it's not easy but some days do get better! My mother has everything from the nerve pain to the ulcers but she is still here today and that's that I love. I hope nothing but the best for you Emma! ❤❤❤

I can't tell you how strong you're being Emma, it's amazing how you're dealing with it all. I was diagnosed with T1D at 14 and I know exactly what you're going through. It throws your world upside down overnight along with everyone's around you, let alone all the other crap you've had to deal with. I know it seems like a lot right now, how you said you feel like food is all you have time for, but I promise you it gets easier. It's a lifelong condition and at times it feels like what's the point, but as you said the drive to never end up in the worst case scenario is what keeps you going. Over time you'll just end up seeing food as numbers which sounds hilarious, you won't think twice about waking up in cold sweats and immediately grabbing something sugary, the blood sugar tests will seem like second nature. It is a life controlled by machines and needles and you sometimes feel like you're just running along behind trying to catch up. But the NHS nurses are lifesavers and eventually it's just normal. If you ever need just to rant know we're here, there's a lot of people all going through it together and it sucks but we're here for you and we love you. I'm so sorry this happened to you but honestly diabetics are some of the strongest people I know, and all the other shit you're going through makes you even stronger than most. Thanks for sharing Emma x

As soon as you started talking about your symptoms I knew right away what you were going to say it was! My husband went through this exact same thing 3 and a half years ago. He was 27 and an incredibly healthy athlete. It's a tough road but he's doing amazing now. I'm sorry you're dealing with this and I hope you're feeling better about all of it soon!

I got so emotional over this and almost cried, but kudos to you for staying so strong and positive. I've missed your videos so so much, but please take your time to recover and rest. Health *always* comes first. Best of luck to you, Brad and, of course, the doggy.

Wow, that is absolutely insane. I'm so sorry you had to go through that but your drive and your view of it is definitely inspiring and things will get easier! Glad to hear you are okay and continuing to get better. Thank you for sharing. I hope everything continues to get easier and better for you.

Also going through everything you've been through you look just as lovely as ever

I'm so happy to hear from you again! I'm also so sorry to hear how you went through this and were alone for some of it too, I hope you get it all under control and you'll be in my thoughts too! I hope you make some really awesome memories to replace the scary ones. You are such a strong person, so don't let the prospect of everything hold you down, you have such an optimistic output and lets keep it that way!

So sad you had to go through this! So glad you're feeling better and hope you continue getting better!

Oh Emma! I'm so glad that you're ok!! I mean, relatively ok. You are such an inspiration. I can't even imagine going through a string of that many horrific things, and for you to come out on the other side with this beautiful positivity, it's amazing. I will keep you and Brad and your puppy in my prayers. I love you guys!

So glad you were able to catch it before anything terrible happened and so glad your ok! take care 💖💖 so sorry you had to go through all that :((

Oh wow Em I don't even know where to start... firstly, you're fucking amazing. How you've coped with all of that so well amazes me. I'm glad I've been sending you hugs in my mind over the past few months you've been gone, you defo seem like you needed them! I've really missed you btw, not just your videos, obviously I knew you were ill & unable to post, no one would expect you to. But just not seeing you on twitter etc has been so strange, I'm so so glad you're alright. I kept checking in every so often, hoping you'd posted something, a photo or anything. I knew you'd be okay though no matter what it was, you're a tough northerner like me, we take on whatever gets thrown at us! No messing about. I wish I could give you more support than just a comment on the internet, but it will have to do. I'm sending you so much love, and virtual grapes for your recovery. I think you're a wonderful, powerful, inspirational person and I know that despite the changes happening in your life right now, you'll continue to handle them like a pro. Hopefully the support from your audience, friends and family will help you through. You can do this Em. Your internet friend, Harriet x

I hope things get easier for you! Thank you so much for sharing what you've been through. I had a similar experience last fall and it can feel like a very isolating thing to face a health crisis when you are young. Many people have trouble relating to you or understanding how difficult it can be, so watching you open up about it and stay positive really helps others who may be facing similar experiences!

You are so incredibly strong! May you be blessed with the best of health ❤️ lots of love!

I'm so sorry that you have to go through this. Sending positive thoughts and best wishes to you and Brad. You're strong and I'm sure you will get through this!

So glad to see you back and that you're doing ok! taking care of yourself is so important and it's great you're working so hard at learning how to do it

That is insanneee how much you're going through oml, major *major* props to you for dealing with it all so well. Really wishing you guys the best💛

Oh my god girl you've been THROUGH it! I am so glad you are finally doing better, and I hope everything starts to look up from here ❤️❤️

When you were describing your problems, I immediately thought of type 1 diabetes. My brother is a type 1 and had a lot of the same symptoms. He didnt believe my mom or me when we told him he was, but ended up going to the hospital after our diabetic cousin checked his sugar level and it had an error. When he went to the hospital, his blood sugar level was 800. The fact that he wasn't in a coma was amazing. I'm so glad that you're starting to feel better! Its a scary process but there are so many people with your same condition. Feel better and I'm wishing you the best!

Prayers sent ur way for u and ur family...thats a lot for anyone to go through! Stay stong!!

You are so strong!! i've been going trought a similar situation regarding health and it is so much work to keep up with everything to be healthy while feeling exhausted and angry, plus having to deal with pain, blood test, medication, surgery, hospitals, diet, and personal emotional shit too!! My god but seeing you being positive about it makes me feel better! 💖 so thank you so much for sharing and lets do our best! 😀

Oh bless you Emma, I'm so sorry to hear about all of this. You are so strong! It will get easier. Take care xxx

So glad you're doing better and keeping on top of it! I really appreciate you taking time to explain it all. My sister is type 1 and it is so hard to explain it. Thank you for taking time to make this video 💕💕💕

Sending lots of love and well wishes to you. I was diagnosed with MS almost 5 years ago and the sudden change of having to be on meds, watching my diet and other things was crazy, but you get used to it and find the rythm as time goes by. Hope everything gets better and keep on having a positive attitude, it really helps :)

Gosh, you've been through an ordeal. But your outlook and resolve is nothing short of inspirational. You all take care. 100% Best wishes.

Oh my god Emma! I hope you, Brad and the doggo are all feeling much better and are managing the stress you most be going through. Sending all the positive thoughts and hope you have lots of cute dog cuddles constantly!

I've missed your videos Emma. so glad you're on the mend. I'm sorry that you're going through this but thanks for sharing your story.

omgoodness, emma! i'm so happy that you're slowly but surely doing better. hopefully things well get back to normal asap for you guys. sending happy thoughts your way!

I'm so sorry for what you are going through but it makes me happy that you're better now. I'm sending you love and best wishes ❤

Omg emma, that sounds so hard. I cant imagine how much stress that must have been. I really hope your health gets better, thinking of you!!

I'm so happy that everything is ok!!! I hope you start feeling better but I'm really happy to see you up & smiling!! I'll be praying for you 🖤

I'm so sorry you're going through this, but so happy you were diagnosed in time! Praying for you as you adjust to your new reality. ❤️🙏🏻

Can't believe how happy you are trying to be handling all of this! You are so strong!! Love you lots ❤️

I hope everything gets better!! You're really strong and I trust that you can do it! Send you and Brad hugs and positive thoughts ❤

Wishing you the best! All of that happening at once must've been extremely tough, so I hope things get better

I am so happy you went when you did. I'm sorry for the life change but really glad that you're educated and have the support you do. You look great and seem to have a great attitude about it! Prayers for you and those around you!

Jfc Emma!! This was a wild ride and I'm so sorry you have to deal with all of this at once! Thank goodness you now know what's up and are able to deal with it, even though that doesn't make it any less sucky. Hang in there girl, you're amazing. Lots of love and positive vibes

Oh my goodness, Emma. That is a life changing, drastic thing to go through. I am so sorry you're dealing with all that. I hope things get more stable for you guys soon! *hugs*

Sending you and your loved ones healing thoughts, I hope you are seen through this difficult times with grace and excellent health!🖤

Oh Emma! I'm so sorry! So glad you're getting better now though!! You sure had me worried. Hope everything calms down from here on out!

I have immense hope that everything will get easier for you soon, couldn't be happier that you're out of hospital and can't wait for you to finally get a proper breather!!

I'm so sorry all of this has happened to you and Brad! Well done for being able to talk about it all, I feel like that must have taken a hell of a lot of strength. I can only wish the best for you both in the future.

Thank you for making this video! It's so informative! Love you lots, babe, hope you're feeling better.

Oh bub!!! I'm so sorry. I'm SO glad you're better now. That's so scary and I'm so glad you're partially through it. I hope you have a speedy rest of your recovery, and that you feel even more like yourself soon! It's a hard thing to deal with, but you can do it!!! We're all right here alongside you!!

Holy shit girl that's so much to happen to someone in such a short span of time. But I'm so glad and so proud of you for taking things so well by the way I see how you're talking about it calmly. I hope the hard parts pass soon so you can get some time to yourself and enjoy life. It's amazing how you fought all of those things (That vision thing freaked me out. How can anyone see like that for a week and a half? I wear glasses I know the feeling when I suddenly can't find them or I break them.) I truly wish you all the best. I hope things get way easier soon. Stay strong. You're doing great girl

I really admire you for staying so positive throughout all of this. Wishing you all the best

Omg girl, don't even need to tell you to be strong, you already are!! My aunt has tipe 1, and she is doind perfect! She have for 20 years now! Very healthy! Handle the best way you can, and think that now you can fight and be 100% healthy! Hope you felling better! The storm will pass! Sending good vibes for the 3 of you!!!

Missed you so much! I was actually refreshing your page every week or so to make sure I didn't miss an upload because it had been so long... I'm so sorry all of this happened to you, ''when it rains, it pours''. Glad to see you're back or at least that you're semi back!!

I am so, so, SO glad that you were able to pull through (and Brad, of course!) and now you're at least well enough to record this video. It really sucks when things like this happen, especially multiple shitty things at the same time, and ESPECIALLY when it's a shitty thing that's stuck with your for the rest of your life. All that matters now I think is that there IS this rest of life to look forward to, even filled with diets and needles and meds, you're still here when you could be gone and I'm happy. Having a chronic illness sucks balls, having health issues just sucks in general, as a person with incurable health stuff I feel for you with all my heart. But life goes on, and all we can do is what needs to be done to keep it going. Best wishes to you, you're a strong smol bean, hang in there.

Thank you for sharing, it's always good to get checked out if you're feeling off and I'm so so so glad you did and got the help you needed. That must have been terrifying. Sending you all of my good vibes and love

thank you for talking so open and honestly. i've had health issiues for a while now but (until now) also haven't seen a doctor about it. but after hearing your story i think i /have/ to make an appointment. i wish you and brad and his dog nothing but the best of luck! i know keeping such a close eye on food intake can be exhausting at first but it will get easier, i promise

it's great to hear that you know what you are dealing with and that you stay positive. I wish you good luck in your future journey.

I've been having health problems that got me scared, but giiirl, you gave me courage lol you really inspired me to stay positive and focus to stay healthy. You're awesome, hope you're doing well now

As soon as you mentioned the drinking, bathroom and weight loss thing I knew straight away. I went through the same thing 8 years ago when I was 14. It's not any easy thing to go through. So happy you have a good outlook on all this and are determined to make sure nothing bad happens as some people really just don't care at all.

I'm so happy you're feeling better, and hope you continue taking care of yourself first 💖

you look great and I think it's amazing how you can still smile while talking about all of this! I can't imagine what you have and are going through because I have never had a major illness and I am so sorry this happened to you. But I will say that I'm sure it will get better once you get the hang of injections and getting more used to it. I have a friend who has type 1, she is a mother, in a band, tours all over the world and she is living her best life!! I hope that brings you hope to know it will get better. xo-cass

I admire your positivity. That sounds so stressful with everything that happened and is going on. I'm glad you went to the doctor on time before things got completely out of control. I hope Brad and you stay strong cause like you said, things will get better.

Emma I have been watching you for years and you're truly one of my favourite makeup youtubers. You're so genuine and sweet and an absolute pleasure to listen to! I am so sorry to hear about what you've been going through, and I hope things get easier for you very soon.

Thank you so much for sharing Emma! I'm so glad that you are on the up now and learning to deal with this new thing in your life! Learning to live with a life long condition can be hard (trust me I know all too well) but in time it will be less hard and will hopefully just become a part of your daily life. One piece of advice that I am sure many here would give is, live with it but don't let it rule your life, it is a part of you now but it is just a small part of a bigger picture and will only be as big as you let it. Work out how it fits around your life and not how you are going to fit around it. It sounds like you have a great support network which is sooooo good. I look forward to many more insights into your life as well as all the makeup loveliness that I have come to love! xx

I love your attitude! I suffer from several health issues and you inspire me to keep a good attitude! Thank you

Emma i love your beautiful soul so much! When times gets tough, please know everyday i am rooting for you and cheering for you! YOU WILL GET THROUGH HARD TIMES BECAUSE YOUR PICKLERS ARE HERE. I'm so excited to see your direction from here on out!

I love you Emma! I hope you keep doing better, my mom recently cut her finger while cooking and it turned into a bad scenario too where she got stitches which got infected, and they had to remove the skin and it didn't go away and it still hasn't healed, but like you said I'm sure the worst part is over. Also I'm so glad you went to the doctor, it's so scary to think your life was in danger and I hope you keep getting better and getting use to everything ❤️

Oh my goodness Emma! I am so so glad you are okay! This was fascinating...so important to learn about these things *just* incase! Xxxx

I'm so glad you are okay. It's a really hard diagnosis and for sure a complete life change. Thank you for being so honest❣️

That is so much for one person. I'm sorry you're going through so much. I will be sending you positive energy and prayers for all of you to remain healthy! I hope your boyfriend figures out exactly what caused his reaction. My daughter has a severe allergy and I know how terrifying it is. Best wishes to you both, and your pup!! 💜💪

Oh Emma! You're having such a tough time I wish you all the best and it will get easier! I hope the next few months are less stressful and hectic than the present

Emma, I've been watching you for years and I'm always so in awe of your creativity but I had no idea of the depth of your strength. I am so sorry that you've had to deal with such trauma but you are showing such poise in the face of it all. I'm sending you positivity and wishing you a calmer and more peaceful time. When you feel up to making more videos, I'm sure we'll all be overjoyed to watch and support :) Thank you for the candid update. Love you!

Wow Emma.. that's crazy how so many things could happen at once.. I'm so glad you're all doing alright though and happy that you caught this before it got even worse. Wish you well and things will get better soon 💕

You are strong, you are amazing and you can do this. Its scary as hell but you are so brave to make it through what you have already been through. I am sure that they have already bought it up with you and I'm not sure if it would be something you would be comfortable with but my little sister recently got her CGM. She was diagnosed at 4 years old and since getting the CGM put in it has given her so much more freedom. She also gets a lot more sleep as there is no more waking up to check at night. Its something that you can think about anyway. Good luck with everything, you've got this!

emma i'm so glad to hear from you and to know that you're doing better, i can't believe how everything came so suddendly for you it must've been really tough, but i'm happy to know that you stayed as strong as you could i hope you and brad get better and better, luv u ♥

Wow you went through so much in the past weeks, it must have been really hard. I love your attitude about it how you stay positive and still can laugh about it!! I'm sure it´ll get easier with time! Stay strong!!

Sending you lots of good vibes❤️ I hope you're not going to be going through anymore scary stuff at the moment and can relax and get over all this that has happened recently. Good luck with taking care of your health, and remember, we're all here for you Emma💋 Love from your name-sister living in Denmark🇩🇰

sending you and Brad and his dog so much love

I decided to watch this while doing my makeup, but I ended up crying (effectively ruining my makeup). Watching this and hearing you talk about your issues was way too real for me and reminds me of my own medical mumbo-jumbo. Aside from that, you have been my favorite KZfaqr for years; I have been following you almost from the beginning and it is so heartbreaking to know what you've survived but it's also totally empowering seeing that you are still SURVIVING it (with such grace and positivity, by the way). Thank you for sharing your story with us! We all love and support you!!!

Oh bless you! My heart goes out to you. Im a type 1 diabetic also and was diagnosed when i was 11, im 30 now. It does get easier and watching you really did bring me back to when i first became diagnosed. It sounds like you're doing a fantastic job monitoring your sugars and taking care of yourself. I really hope things become easier for you soon. P.s just a bit of advice ive learnt along my diabetic journey, when pricking your finger do it on the side of your finger rather than the tip because as time goes by you do get a bit of hard skin there and a little loss of feeling, so doing it on the side just minimises these. All the best and keep us updated on how your getting on :)

Stay strong lovely Emma! I am so glad you are doing better and wish you the best ❤️ I'm proud of how you are handling your condition. Education is KEY.

You are such a beautiful person inside and out, I am so sorry this has happened to you. I love how you're still smiling 💜💜💜💜

Oh dear Emma, i am shocked to hear about all the things that has happened to you lately but i am really proud to see how positive you are about it! You are truly inspiring, so strong! I wish you the best and i thank you for sharing your story!

Emma, you're one of the first youtubers I ever subscribed to and I always enjoyed your content. You're such a sweet, caring and talented person and it breaks my heart to hear that all of that is happening to you right now. I admire your strenght right and I really hope that things will get better for you and your close ones. After all, storms don't last forever. Stay strong and take care of yourself

I have to say that your strength through discussing this is phenomenal. Managing to rationally explain your situation without letting your emotions get overly in the way is amazing, and truly I'm in awe of you watching this video. I am so sorry that you are going through this all at one time, and it's truly rotten how life can throw everything at you to a point you can feel you're drowning in endless new problems. This being said I really hope you manage to keep your eye on finding those silver linings and on the positives as and when possible. All I can really do is wish you luck and send all the positive energy I can. Finally I have to add that your description made me giggle.
