This is why mom likes your videos more than mine. :)

I suffered from almost deadly head injury last year (90% chance of dying) half of my skull was broken to pieces, brain injury, eye injury and low chances of surviving it, speaking, understanding and remembering places, people, etc... I was quite told I should be "disabled" and maybe even paralyzed... I survived, my skull, brain and eye was miraculously "healed" and fixed by amazing doctors. I could not walk for the first 2 weeks after coming out of 2 weeks being in a coma. I could not walk as all what happened on the day of the accident, gave me small chances of even not being paralzyed. It took me 2 months to partially recover, then one more eye surgery and letting my brain to properly recover... I do not remember a moment of the accident as I lost pratically 2 weeks (being in a coma) of the memory starting around 10 - 20 mins before accident, as if those worst moments somehow were removed from my brain. I suffer not from a physical issues, but more from mental issues, not because of the accident, but because of the system I am living in, have not received any insurance (more than a year already passed), got prohibition to drive a car (by the government) until it will be clearly proven I can see well enough to not cause any hazard to anyone or myself. I lost my car and I lost my work, I lost pretty much everything, friends I knew, haven't seen them for practically a year and 2 months, even though they live very close to me. Nevermind, I almost died but did not die and I do hope my life will turn to some amazing way I will be back to happy life when 2021 was one of the happiest ones, and 2022 pretty much gone because of the accident and even this year did not bring anything yet "positive" but actually opposite, most what happened after my accident pretty much put me to the lowest "level" of my life since I was born. Still hoping and fighting inside of me to hope for the better to come, to enjoy life again and to live somehow normal life to the last breath.

That was seriously amazing of him to give you a paddle. He does really beautiful work and you can really sense his passion for what he does.

When you have smoke alarms go off, you have to improve the ventilation which means open all the doors and windows that you can until they stop. And for future reference, try doing that during or before you cook.

What a beautiful place. I am sure ya all had a good time. That paddle sure was a nice gift 😊

👋 Good to see more of your recovery activity. The 🎵 music & photo editing were excellent, as usual. 😊

Years ago I went through some tough times, my grandmother said to me 'every black cloud has a silver lining', the trick is having the fortitude to go and find it. Onwards and upwards Emily, I think your on the right path. Best wishes and thank you for your excellent content. Oh, and by the way! She was right.

Glad to see you doing better, and having fun with your friends. It's good to take care not to overdo things that strain your brain for a while, letting it heal up well by doing mentally restful things. From personal experience, learning for college exams while concussed can lead to another year of headaches, until I took a year off from studying, doing practical things instead, and allowed my brain enough recovery time to get rid of the headaches before starting more studying. I'd say you are doing the right things to help yourself recover!

I hope you are feeling better Emily!!

Nothing like an excursion with good friends. My Dad never fished so I wasn't exposed to it much. But I did go on a handful of deep sea fishing trips which was fun. My Dad introduced me to golf as a young person and I'm grateful for that. Been playing all my life and I'm old. So a long time. Ha. You look like you're feeling better which is good to see. Good video. 👍

Life is what you make it, everything that you are going through right now, it’s supposed happen, to prepare you for what’s next in life so make the most of the journey.

Live ,laugh ,love!!!! Improvise ,adapt, and overcome!! And..if all else fails as planned.. " Drop back 10 n Punt"!! You got this....slow n steady will win the race!!! 🤙🧙‍♂️🐺👍

Классное получилось путешествие! Красивая природа! Вкусная еда! Весёлая рыбалка! Стрельба по тарелкам! Отличный отдых! Классное видео! Мне понравилось! Круто Круто!!!

😊 Beautiful Emily! ❤ I think that beautiful memories, new places and friends are the best possession we can have and bring them back whenever we want and I felt the same sensations!

Hey Emily. I know recovery is so frustrating and so boring but you really are doing great.

Head injures are tricky. Everyone recovers at their own pace just remember to not push it.

Glad to see you having a good time with all your friends. It looked a lovely setting and you certainly packed a lot in. Take care, be safe. 💕 Dorset, UK

I feel you. Had a TIA a few years back and am still trying to get back to some sort of stability. Super important to have self-compassion and give yourself a break, spending time in connection with real things not abstract. Thanks for making the videos.

Cmon Emily!! You had a GREAT situation!! A little rain, no fish, so what!! You had good friends, in beautiful surroundings, and I think, wonderful experiences!! Sounds like a winner to me. AND you kept the open side of the canoe on top!! I have great difficulty with that myself. For me they seem to work best with that part IN the water. And the ONLY was I can get back IN a canoe, is at a dock or shore. I dunno girl, you trip made me wanna be there. Sure looked good Bless you Emily..

So happy to see you're recovering nicely. ❤️

Beautiful glimpses into your world. Loved the smoke alarm towel waving contest you had, it was hilarious! Hope you get the rest & rejuvenation you need so you can get on with your life...Cheers, Dear Emily... 🦊🐺

Some of lifes best adventures are unplanned, but it looks like ya'll had a great time inspite of the bugs, trying to burn the cabin down, and lack of fish bites/ landings... lol 😂😅 Im pretty sure you were pushing yourself more than you shouldve, especially with the clay shooting, and all the paddling in the canoe. Please Emily, enjoy life as you may, but be easy with your recovery. Love ya'll ❤

Happy to see you relaxed and having fun...God Bless You.

Hey gorgeous girl. Great to see you recovering, slowly slowly wins the race. Your new camera man is a bit of a hotty 😉😊. Keep up the good work. Love from New Zealand

Any day on the lake is a great day, despite whether you catch something. It is so wonderful to see the younger folks enjoy nature. I'm a Gen Xer, and we need to stop stereotyping. I love asparagus; I was eyeballing that. Gens M and Z are just as hardworking as any other. When you realize life is fleeting and we only have so much time on this rock, Golf and fishing are similar; you may be horrible at them, but they are so much fun. Get out there and enjoy Mother Earth; moments like this are why not spending time on social media compared to real life is so important. Life isn't definite; once you realize this and deal with it, it will be easier for you. I would love to spend a week with your dad to learn from him and help him out, as he has inspired me.

I used to like to fish for Salmon in the Fraser Rive. B.C. when I was a kid. Best wishes for your recovery.

You do a fantastic job. I love the way you showed that people can still have fun when things don't go as planned.

Glad to see you out and about. Nice cabin and the lake was really calm.

I was surprised u went shooting! I was off work 4 almost a year with my concussion..I was a bus driver..my brain would have rattled in my line of work.. My head injury left me with balance issues..even kayaking was out 4 me! Good luck Emily!

Nothing better than laughing with your friends while enjoying nature. That paddle is beautiful! Thank you.

Hooks too small u can't land them. I like the low-tech way of fishing once the bugs come out. That's what the fish want. Emily knows her way around, catching fish.

One thing, never wear hip waders in a boat, if you happen to go overboard you are sunk! How is your head, are healed.

Wow sure is a beautiful paddle that he made you Emily, Yep I was here watching Saturday morning, many times I’ve been out fishing and never caught nothing, but I Did catch fun just being out there, good spirit feeling, just to hear the birds singing a happy song just a peaceful easy feeling is the best 👍👍 appreciate you sharing. Never give up you will be back to yourself well until then peace and chicken grease 😁👍👍😎

Absolutely one your best excursions and filming. Nice wonderful friends to see enjoying creation in Halliburton Forest 🌳 ❤thx

Классное путешествие! Хороший домик для отдыха! Фабрика вёсил! С погодой только не повезло! Главное в хорошей компании друзей! Классное видео получилось! Круто Круто!!!

Your video told a beautiful story of the importance of life’s journey with healing, friends and adversity. Truly a joyful experience thank you for taking us along and sharing it with us.😊

Hi again EMILY You're feeling better yay so you can do this getaway with your friends. A beautiful place with fun things to do and see. Keep healing and look forward to your next vid. Thx as always for sharing.

❤ such a warming video, thankyou for sharing Emily! Sending regards from Scotland. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Emily, it’s good that you are setting an example to other young people to go outdoors, cook, and look positively at life !good job.

Years ago we went to the Wolf Center and the Halliburton Forest to do the canopy walk. Great places! We stayed at Miners Bay Lodge, about 10 km outside of Mindon. Wonderful areas.

Wow wolf's, very exciting, fishing, eating, friends ,sleeping overnight it doesn't get any better 🍁👍

The beauty in your videos is only paralleled by you!! 💞Thanks for sharing. Praying for your continued recovery!

Looks like it was a great trip with great friends and food....you can't go wrong with that!! Thanks for sharing and glad you are feeling better!!

Que a natureza lhe traga forças para superar seus limites! May nature bring you strength to overcome your limits!

Great to see you doing better but where you went looked absolutely beautiful and thank you so much for sharing this beautiful video. That paddle looked amazing so nice of him to do that for you and please take care

Glad to see that you have recovered nicely from the concussion and are out enjoying life ❤

Great getaway. Cool paddle. Awesome video. Continued healing, Emily. 👍😎🇨🇦

So nice seeing you , truly appreciate you and all the hard work you put into all your videos

Thanks Emily enjoyed your video, Hope you keep getting better with your recovery,

Planned or not, looked fun. Awesome paddle, such a cool gift. You, and your father, make cast iron cooking look so simple.

What a beautiful location. Thanks for sharing with us. And by the way, you are a grilling ninja! Take care young lady.

A lot to do Emily. The disappointing times make the great times even better!!! Like remember when I caught that 5Lb smallie. Enjoy the recovery.

Bountiful video Emily. Love you both already❤❤

Beautiful little cabin and site!

Great video.. there is nothing better than spending quality time with friends in nature..

Nice video! Very good to see you spending time with your sister and friends - and that your feeling so much better! Fantastic youre healing from the accident. It simply takes time and taking the necessary medical precautions. You'll find more improvements over time. Just remember to be careful, not to reinjure yourself and take it slow. I hope you take protections with you while hiking, fishing - more than just bear spray, best to be prepared. Amazing video and videography! Btw, youll find fish activity greatly slows down immediately after a good rain due to great temperature changes which slows fish activity and runoff food (worms, insects) increases so theyre less hungry and less interested to bite. Theyll hang mostly close to the banks, close to run off food. Shooting watch the recoil of the gun, jerking your brain, remember its still bruised and healing. Best wishes.

That man said he makes about 4-5 of those paddles a day and I'm sitting over here worried if I can make 5-6 cutting boards a week... It's the little things in life that kick you in the butt sometimes, like a few minutes segment in the middle of a video about being stoic and picking back up and moving forward. Glad you are feeling more like yourself, Emily.

What a good friend posting your friends eating smores anyway lol Your fishing guide was such lighthearted fun it had to make the trip even better fish or no fish.... good times.

Szia,ismét gyönyörű helyen jártál.Csodálatos társasággal.Irigylem a párod.😊

I know when you're young its hard to chill for an extended period but if there was anything you should not have done was carry that canoe and skeet shoot. Ok, thats my dad rant for now!😅

Beautiful area and the scenery is outstanding. All that water and fishing possibilities go on forever. Glad you enjoyed the time spent with friends, very important, and so many bugs. God Bless and help heal you so you can spend more time with your friends..

Fun get a ways are good and glad you had a great time~❤

Beautiful video. Loved your background music. Blessings and continue to heal. Gorgeous paddle.

Thanks for taking us alone, beautiful scenery and just love watching the food you cook up.

Emily I hope you are feeling better and have recovered. The oar that was given to you was made beautifully. Another beautiful video.

Hi Emily - glad to see you back outdoors - love the new addition :)

Hi, hang in there Emily, it will all be alright. Continue to enjoy what makes you happy. Blrssings

Keeping you in my prayers, I'm so glad you got out with friends..

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.

Hey Emily, Thank you for sharing your adventure! I am sorry you didn't catch any fish for the fry pan! It looks like you are healing now, just take it easy though and don't push yourself to hard. Beautiful drone footage as usual! Your cooking makes me hungry and your friends are so cool! Until your next video ~~~ Stay safe, healthy and happy! 🛶 🛶

Fun with friends 👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

What a Super Enjoyable video Emily and Thank You and your Friends for sharing it! Your choice of music is great as well! The walk through the tree top canopy looked Amazing! What a great idea and a entirely different view. And Beautiful place there indeed! Thanks Again, Many Blessings and Healing! Love, Light, Peace and Joy of Being to All the Gang!

Nice to see you enjoying the outdoors with your friends, Emily! These kind of ‘gatherings’ will help you recover much faster! It was another great video to watch. Till next one. Take it slow, take it easy. But ENJOY!

happy that your recovery is going well

Emily I am always so happy to watch your videos. I live in a tropical country where the winter minimum temperatures reach 18 degrees Celsius. I can see that having fun in a cold weather place is pretty cool. Congratulations.

You made some great memories with friends...the most important thing you can carry through life, in my humble opinion.

This was a beautiful video...great music too. 💕

So good to see you out and about Emily, it must be hard for you, being so active, to have to slow down to let yourself recover. I know one of my biggest downfalls is doing to much to soon. Hoping to see you out being the real you soon. Take care, be safe and look after yourself.

No, you won't film them eating smores. 😂I loved that. Great trip with friends. Take care. That paddle truly is a keepsake.

@8:10+ kept hearing lyrics about "catching my fall" or what not while walking about the tree-line lol, on point! haha.

It looked perfect. ❤

I love Haliburton Forest! I've got friends up there camping right now.

Awesome. Great video.

Great video. You may not be at 100% yet, but you are getting closer!!! 😊

Great adventure!

Warm and comforting video that was well edited w. perfect background music (minus the walk through the trees, lol).

Looks an awesome cabin and area to stay in 🙂

This is a great video. The production quality is through the roof. Yes, it was worth the time it took you to put it together!

Great video Emily, I hope you are feeling better and approving everyday.

Emily I loved watching this and glad you were able to get out. Of everyone their I'm surprised that you didn't out catch all the fish since your Dad taught you how to fish. Perhaps you are just rusty at it. All the food you fixed looked so delicious but then you are an excellent cook. Nice to see you out with friends. Enjoyed and thanks as through you a life I could only dream of.

Your paddle gift is beautiful!

Keep paddling, Emily Girl!!

Great video loved the scenery

You're doing good.......keep smiling!

Keep working hard Emily. Major setbacks stink, but you will over come them completely. You're doing much better than me on my channel. I've been working hard for 2 years with good video content and it's taking forever to accumulate subscribers. I really like you and your dads channels. God bless - Trent Gunnell Georgia Exposure

You really captured the beauty of the lake and forest. I enjoyed your video.

That's a beautiful place!!!

awesome cabin to rent I would love the wolf habitat and canoing looked like a great deal of fun with great friends , Wish mine were into this Id have to go alone or with the dog sadly. Love the paddle you were given what a nice video , I myself would hate to leave a place like that.

Get well soon. Take care of yourself.

Hi Emily 👋 It can be frustrating, but recovery after a concussion takes time. Believe me , I know all too well. You're going to be just fine, stay safe and take care my friend 🙏 Appreciate you, your Dad & family 🙂 God Bless
