Thank you, Kari! I'm doing much better now, and as always, I'm amazed at God's perfect timing!

Hey Donna! You're 100% right! It's hard to not see the world that way after everything we've been through! lol. And thank you, I'm feeling a bit better today.

Amen, Jennifer!

Hey Teresa! First off, the Template (If you've already seen this, please disregard the first part of the message) This is Darrin, (Brittany's husband) She passed this January this year from Kidney Cancer. We filmed a lot of videos and Brittany wanted to upload them, and she was able to do so for awhile. But as she got sicker, she wasn't able to post them anymore. By the time she passed away, we were a year and some change behind in videos. So now, it's on me. I'm posting everything we filmed. And there's a lot! And I've got more to go, too! You'll notice on every video I list the date, including the year that the film was taken to help avoid confusion! The one you watched was from 8/6/2023. The story is wild. God shows up in big ways (sneak back to episode 22.5 if you want to hear why I think you should keep watching despite the fact that she's gone) and God shocks EVERYONE in our lives. Brittany wanted to touch lives, and she felt called to do these videos, and would often say if she could touch just 1 life, then it would have all been worth it. I hope you continue watching along with us for the journey! We do, get a miracle... a HUGE one. (Episode 80 and forward) It just wasn't quite what we expected. You've messaged me riiiiight at the point in the story where we see God move in some amazing ways! I hope you continue watching! (Okay, now that's out the way) You're another fellow Professor of the Literature persuasion! Hey! lol. I taught low level comp classes in Louisiana before I moved to Mississippi several years back. Welcome to the journey! I hope you stick around with us for awhile! Thank you for your comment and blessings! I really appreciate it. And, I'm so sorry that you've had to experience this battle too... It's not easy. And you've gone through it twice!

@@Beyond_Cancer yes. I know why you are doing this and the stories do matter. They matter in Brittany’s memory and this is a way of honoring her. She will always be your love. I pray in time you love again but I have learned that love grows and there is always room. What a blessing that you are able to do this for her legacy. I do teach ENC 1101 and ENC 1102 and one Lit class, AFAM 2600 at Tallahassee community college. It’s an adventure and I love it. Thanks for the content. Brittany is smiling.

Caz, I believe this as well! I'm doing better today, thankfully!

Hey Kiri! Thank you! Not sure if you've been with us for awhile or not, so lemme give you the "template" - I post this to all newcomers. If you've seen this before, or if you've been here awhile, and I just don't recognize you, please ignore this: This is Darrin, (Brittany's husband) She passed this January this year (2023) from Kidney Cancer.

By the time she passed away, we were a year and some change behind in videos. So now, it's on me. I'm posting everything we filmed. And there's a lot! And I've got more to go, too! You'll notice on every video I list the date, including the year that the film was taken to help avoid confusion! The one you watched was episode 68.5. We're all the way up to the 90's now! The story is wild.

@@Beyond_Cancer Thank you Darrin.. your story.. your life… your wife.. was and is beautiful yet so tragic… strength & blessings 🖤

Thank you, Kiri! So much!

Thank you, Life! I'm doing a bit better today.

Dorottya! Thank you so much for the comment! Brittany often said that if her story could affect even just 1 person in a small way, then everything she would have experienced would have been worth it. Granted, this video was not about her, but... if not for her, I wouldn't be here doing these videos. So, long story short - you're one of those '1 person's she wanted to help. You're a part of this too. I hope you continue to follow along with us!

You're absolutely right! If there's anything the journey has taught me, it's that He can use ANY situation in furtherance of His plan and Glory, as well as uplift his people. I'm amazed at his beauty and perfection.

Thank you, Jana! I appreciate it. And I LOVE the way you put that - God is so good that he can make great plans even through a piece of lettuce! And it's SO TRUE!

Margo, You're welcome. Thank you for checking in on me. I'm up and down - just being honest. But, I know God's got me and He's got Brittany too. The Lord never promises an easy time, or a good time. But, we know that He's with us through everything, and that all things work towards His glory. And I think that's the most comforting part of this.

Thank you, Darlene! I really appreciate it! And yes, I believe that it was a nudge from God. If anything, Him saying "I can use any situation for my Glory." And, in the meantime, I got to interact with another person who could uplift me and vice versa!

Thank you, Misty Moon! 💕

Thank you, Hopefully! And I believe it was God, too. After everything I've been through, It's like He was saying "I can use anything at anytime and anywhere for My Glory!" And even lift up his people along the way!

Thank you, Keith!

Becky, I'm sorry that happens to your mother! It's scary! And, as much as I don't like hospitals now, and quite missed my battle buddy being with me, this time was fairly simple. Praise God!

Hey Jacquetta! Thank you! I am doing a bit better today, thankfully!

Thank you, @thelegendofhisown1762 ! I'm sure that God brought us together in that moment as well! I am taking my time, and processing. Thank you for reaching out!

It REALLY did, Alley! I even have a friend who I spoke to the day after, and I told them "Well... I was actually at the hospital last night" and the response was "What, you choked on another Bay Leaf" - "Actually... YES!" 😂

@user-nw2zr5ol1h Hey Alicia, sorry for the confusion! This is Darrin, (Brittany's husband) She passed this January this year from Kidney Cancer. We filmed a lot of videos and Brittany wanted to upload them, and she was able to do so for awhile. But as she got sicker, she wasn't able to post them anymore. By the time she passed away, we were a year and some change behind in videos. So now, it's on me. I'm posting everything we filmed. And there's a lot! And I've got more to go, too! You'll notice on every video I list the date, including the year that the film was taken to help avoid confusion! The one you watched was from 5/15/2022. The story is wild. God shows up in big ways (sneak back to episode 22.5 if you want to hear why I think you should keep watching despite the fact that she's gone) and shocks EVERYONE in our lives. Brittany wanted to touch lives, and she felt called to do these videos, and would often say if she could touch just 1 life, then it would have all been worth it. I hope you continue watching along with us for the journey!

@@Beyond_Cancer thank you … she touches my life every day… I learned a lot from her…. As you are in my prayers , daily … luv to u and the fur babies… milo must miss her😇🙏❤

Milo sure does. Not nearly as much as Butterball does, however.

Ava, I'm in Mississippi. I'm surprised they didn't schedule me for surgery, amputate my right foot, and pat themselves on the back for a job well done. lol.

Lynne, No doubt that moment was meant for you! I'm glad that you got to see her again.

@@Beyond_Cancer that's right x

memzee, I think I'm going to be okay. I'm coughing a bit more, but I don't feel anything now. So, it's probably dissolved. lol. Fur babies are fine. I actually had Gran and Brittany's mother come check on them while I was at the hospital for 4 hours. lol. I'm grateful for them.

Hi love, It's nice to know you can call on them if needed. How are they coping ? How are you doing now ?

Milo and Butter are okay. They're each healing at their own rate, I guess. I'm feeling fine from the lettuce now. I was coughing a bit the last few days, but it's starting to clear up.
