I am so glad to hear that you are moving simply because it's clear that there is something in Steubenville that is really harming your health. And if you can make a change that positively impacts your health, you owe it to yourself and your family to do so. God bless and praying for you and your family.
Praying for you Cameron! Regarding moving... there's always the option of coming back to Austria 😉 We would be glad to have your family back here. This country needs more people of God.
Thanks for keeping it real! I have multiple sclerosis & we spent some time in France this past spring & I felt great! I had no neuropathic pain whatsoever. Upon returning to east TN, It came roaring back the first night home which made me sad. I do hope you can get some relief. We brought our daughter to the Hallow Summit hoping she could meet you but it just didn’t work out (she has hEDS, POTS, & MCAS). She takes LDN & is getting relief except for the subluxations. We are praying for you, Cameron. God bless.
Praying for you Cameron and Matt and the kids. I have Ms, EDS and CRPs so I know where you’re coming from. Yes garden of gethsemsne comes to mind so often in prayer. . I’m in Ireland , so I’m praying to our lady of knock and in this beautiful feast day our lady Queen of heaven and earth … our blessed lady pray for us and all suffering from such conditions. ❣️🕊️🥰… you’re such a dote Cameron. Inspirational 💓
Aww! I wonder if it’s mold?? We lived in Indiana for 10 years and it really affected EVERYTHING. Moving to AZ changed the general malaise I had thought was normal. Lots of prayers as you all navigate where to go next! Love to you and the fam. 🥰🥰
California and Arizona are great choices as it is not humid here so mold doesn't grow as easily. Phoenix is a manageable drive from the Southern Ca beaches over a long weekend. Mikhaila Peterson moved to AZ to escape mold in Florida. May God lead you, guide you, and bless you as you move!
I’m originally from the great land of Ohio, but my eczema and autoimmune crap didn’t start till I moved to Texas 8 years ago 😄 When I visit Ohio my skin clears up. Maybe it’s my moms cooking.
Funny! My husband and I are FUS grads. I did a semester in Austria but he had already graduated and came to visit over Easter. Then we came back and lived at the Kartause for a month and traveled Euriope when our oldest two were little. It was so great! This last weekend we were at our place on the North Shore of Lake Superior, my husband is really into cold plunges so I joined him in going in the lake and then the sauna four times. I said, "This reminds me of jumping in the creek in Austria!! "
The pollution in Steubenville is awful and many develop allergies! I graduated from Franciscan both undergrad and grad and my allergies would give me sinus infections frequently! Sad that you have to move. I love Franciscan and Steubenville:)
Yeah I wondered the same. I know you mentioned Cameron that you were staying in new buildings but a new building could also have mould. Sometimes builders cut corners and mould can grow before even getting in a new building. It's likely a combination of things but just wanted to point out a new building doesn't mean there isn't mould Prayers and blessings 🙏🏼💛
CIRS, that’s what I keep thinkin, my sister had a friend whos doc told her to move out TX to Arizona bc her CIRS was just not recovering in that environment.
I’m so sorry Cameron! I relate so much to your videos that you share about your health journey. I know you get suggestions all of the time but look into CIRS (chronic inflammatory response syndrome). Praying for you!
Clearly the Lord wanted you in Steubenville for a season, and now He has a purpose for all of you elsewhere. Praying for the discernment of the Holy Spirit as to where you are wanted, and for restoration of your health. Also, how is Meredith?🎉
I’m so sorry, Cameron! I pray you find relief soon. Stress is a trigger for me too. Maybe the anticipation of returning and the traveling didn’t help. Blessing to you and your family! 🙏🏼❤️
Years ago my daughter (then in high school) and I traveled from MN to Steubenville for a youth conference. One of the first things I noticed was the poor air quality ~ and industrial smell. This was 20 years ago.
I also have autoimmune issues. For me, while it seems I just can’t eat anything anymore without consequences…I will somewhat grudgingly admit there may be an emotional component to what I’m experiencing. Have you heard of/read The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk, M.D. ? I believe that external things like food, environment etc do cause health issues…and I also believe in the mind/body connection as well. Just a thought. Hope you are feeling well again soon 🤗
I have heard stories of people moving to Texas and having to move right out because of Cedar Fever. Sometimes it’s just the place and environment. Many people for hundreds of years had to go to different climates to get well.
Have you ever removed your nose ring and earrings? It’s not about aesthetics nor morality, but considered if you have an autoimmune problem, you could have a metal allergy as well. It might be a shot in the dark, but I’m allergic to anything not 24 caret gold. Seeming your heart is 100 % gold, which is completely malleable, as it is a liquid; I figured I would send you that ie e of information. I hope you are not offended in anyway, as I think you are amazing, and I appreciate your momminess!!!
I don't understand this because you were doing good in Steubenville long before you went to Austria. It was because of that video you did with Matt, talking about the good results you'd gotten from the diet that inspired me to try carnivore. (Which unfortunately did nothing for me.) I don’t see why you felt good prior to Austria, but now you don't. Like you, my health issues remain a mystery to me. Hopefully, we'll both find healing.
It reminds me of when Mikaila Peterson started her elimination diet. She was doing just fine on chicken and lettuce and then she cut them and now can’t reintroduce them or she’ll get a reaction,, I guess we’ll have to walk by faith until God gives us sight,, I’m glad your family is so supportive though!!
That's a good idea that I hope Cameron & Matt will seriously consider. Ave Maria University is there. And I assume the Fradds prioritize living close to a Catholic university with its surrounding Catholic community; I thought they specifically chose living in Steubenville for that reason.
Carnivore is masking inflammation by pushing your body to make anti-inflammatory stress hormones. It suppresses your best building hormone (insulin), which raises those stress hormones. Short term symptom relief, but there is a high price in time. Especially as a woman is losing her ovarian hormones, this is a breakdown state. Moving to the beach is a smart move because it lowers inflammation without stressing you’re body. I know how hard this is and pray you find a doctor who can heal this without extreme diets that place more pressure on a hurting system. So happy you enjoyed Austria.
Haha was coming to say that you should consider Baldwin County, Alabama… and there’s already a comment for that 😂😂 Sorry to hear about your problems coming back and all the moving and upending life that it’s causing 🙏🏼
Have you heard of The Bucket List Family? I just discovered them. You and Matt and kids might like them on RU-vid. I'm addicted to their videos. I learned of Catholic surfer Bear Woznick recently, which lead me to surfing videos and then to the Bucket List Family. The couple met as missionaries (not Catholic) in college. Husband sold an app he created and that's how they can do their adventures as a family
I’m late to the comment party here but I’ve been wondering on carnivore what do you do about receiving the Eucharist? I have celiac and sometimes it bothers me sometimes it doesn’t.
Cameron I’m crying listening to you! i know everyone gives you a million suggestions when you’re sick all the time lol but here is mine… look into a carnivore NTP named Judy Cho’s and her videos on CIRS. It was my root cause for MCAS. I have been on the Lion diet since April and getting on the Shoemaker protocol and getting SO much better. I’m so sorry you’re struggling. I will be keeping you in prayer!
Also it’s not just mold I’m allergic to. It’s pollution in the air… so smoke and viruses too. But having a CIRS diagnosis has given me the tools I need to move forward. I’ve been working with the nutrition with Judy team NTP’s and the Lion diet specifically has saved my life and made my progress go much quicker.
I relate so much to Cameron’s videos too and I also have found I have CIRS through Judy Cho. Now found out tick borne infections are part of my story too. I’ve often wondered if CIRS is part of her story too.
@@cammos07 no way!!! Small Catholic world. I am so sorry you're dealing with all of this but at the same time I'm kind of excited to find another Catholic in the CIRS community! My heart goes out to Cameron because I know how exhausting and isolating and discouraging it is...but once I learned about CIRS it connected all the dots. I've moved into a rental and been on the CSM for a few months and witnessed more progress than I've seen in such a long time. I want everyone suffering from chronic illness to at least be aware it exists because it could be their root cause too!
Can eczema be a symptom of CIRS? My 3 year old daughter has severe eczema. We are working with a functional medicine doctor/naturopath right now. And she believes my daughter has a histamine intolerance. But she reacts to more than just high histamine foods. She reacts to things like sweet potatos and rice and different environments. Summer months are the worst time for her. She is constantly itchy and scratches until she bleeds. She has red circles around her eyes. We just had a blood test that showed she has some liver dysfunction and possibly kidneys too. I really think it could be mold. And I was just looking a Judy Cho website. I'm so so sooo greatful for Cameron talking about all of this stuff because I feel God is using her to bring all of us together and possibly find healing for all of us. Including my sweet little girl.
+JMJ+ My dear sweet Sister in CHRIST! Your were one of my Mass intentions this morning!I prayed that JESUS would cure all your pain and illness! HE can. I don’t like seeing anyone in physical pain. This breaks my heart. You’re such an inspiration to souls, Catholic, Protestant Christian, and non Christian, all over the world. I know what it’s like to be in extreme physical pain. My pain was nothing compared to yours. JESUS, please, if it be your holy will, heal our sweet Cameron. GOD bless!
I was very sick the 11 years I lived in Central Pennsylvania. I would leave the area. Get better and go back and get sick again. Move to Indiana still have some issues but not nearly to the degree. They were in Pennsylvania. In 2002 unfortunately I’m still in Indiana, but I was told there’s not enough sun for me to be healthy here. My EDS has gone off the charts bad MCAS pots you name it and I was told in the summer there’s not enough sun in my hair started splitting my nails split. Everything was a mess so, where are you live really does matter.
Please look into testing for the MTHFR gene. There is a correlation with EDS (with all its other symptoms) and a problem with methylating folate. Methylfolate can help tremendously in those with positive MTHFR gene mutations in EDS.
@@med4kmd I have an appointment with Dr Francomano in a few weeks. Medical care a train wreck at the moment. No PCP and immunologist retiring. I can’t get into the new practice for 2 years unless I move 50 miles away. I call the local hospital “The All Inclusive Medically Themed Resort”🥳 Dx EDS (classic /hEDS) POTS DYSAUTONOMIA GASTROPARESIS MAST CELL the alphabet soup. Access to care and being too exhausted … merrily I offer it up and lope along hoping I don’t fall because we all know there are no neurological walking difficulties. That’s all in your head.
+JMJ+ Oh Cameron!😢✝️ You are sooooo in my prayers! I so want JESUS to heal you. I don’t know why HE’S allowing the suffering, but I k ow that you know, you’re with grace for the salvation of souls. You’re my new strong and spunky hero. Prayers being offered,… Now!!! 🙏🏼✝️🙏🏼
@patallenhurst3043 It depends on where you live. It's higher cost than the US I'm sure but SA and W.A. are significantly cheaper to live than the East Coast.
I'm frankly stunned at your cold, hateful, misogynistic and insulting comment. You've insulted both Matt and Cameron; You owe them both an apology, esp considering the Fradds are continuing their ministries & taking care of their children while dealing with these heartbreaking health issues. On the Pints with Aquinas videos where Matt interviews Cameron, it is obvious from Matt's demeanor & language that he sincerely loves Cameron, he continues to be attracted to her, & he finds her beautiful, externally & internally..YES, even though she's "approaching menopause." Your username is Naomi, so IF you're actually a woman, why are you so misogynistic?!! IF you're a woman, you should know that menopause is a natural part of a woman's life, NOT A DISEASE!!, and women can be beautiful & attractive before, DURING AND AFTER MENOPAUSE. In Comments Sections, I believe in the right to free speech & respect the right to differing opinions, & so I usually ignore tone-deaf/clueless comments, but I'm making an exception here because your comment goes beyond tone-deafness/cluelessness. Your comment expresses NO valid opinion or viewpoint: Your comment is INTENTIONALLY insulting, hateful, hurtful & insulting to Matt and Cameron. They live their lives as faithful, sincere, loving, caring Catholic Christians while having to deal with Cameron's very difficult health issues. The Fradds DESERVE our encouragement & emotional & prayer support. The Fradds DON'T DESERVE your ugly comment.
@@cfradd Please excuse me, Cameron, but why was my reply here removed, & removed without explanation?? My reply was sincerely appreciative of & supportive of you & Matt, & since my reply got Liked I know some other commenter(s) agreed with me. Why was my reply removed, BUT the original comment (which I replied to) was NOT removed?? This original comment was in extremely poor taste. I think the original comment was meant to somehow be "funny"🙄and because I DO have a sense of humor I can confidently say this original comment was NOT FUNNY; it's an undeserved DIG against Matt & you. Cameron, I truly appreciate you & your ministry & I keep you in my prayers. 🙏
@@bluskyes524 I totally agree with you. I think the original comment was somehow meant to be "funny" but because I have a good sense of humor I know that this original comment is NOT FUNNY; it's an undeserved dig against Matt & Cameron.
