My Last Days Follow-Up: How Are They Doing Now? 

SoulPancake thank you for this series!❤️ being a newly diagnosed terminal teen, this series helps give us some hope😊

Hi

I have been watching your videos for many years. Your videos bring us all back to reality no matter healthy or sick. All of these people are amazing, beautiful people. I am sad to see that Claire is no longer with us. Thank you so much for the series.

It's mid May, I haven't found a new vid? Did I miss a notification! ?

I wish you could do sickle cell disease. I have a collapsed right hip and 2 years ago I came out of a 5 day coma. 3 weeks later I had a severe seizure in which I fractured my hip that I had replaced on the left hip. This will be my second hip replacement. In severe pain pretty much daily but still planning to graduate college, write a book, and do RU-vid. I wish I could feel an hour of no pain but that may not happen. I was told I wouldn't live to see 18-21. I'm 30. My heart a month ago was going to stop and the doctors still haven't figured out why my potassium, magnesium, and blood levels will drop to abnormal levels. My heart rate is rarely as low as 120. Living in so much pain is so frustrating especially when I want to accomplish certain things such as my degree and I can't because of the excruciating pain I have to deal with 24/7. I'm learning how to stop saying why me and instead saying why not me. I'd love for you to hear my story. I'm hoping to try and get more consistent with my RU-vid channel so I can reach more people and bring more awareness to this painful and terrible disease. If you read this I'd be so shocked!

You're not alone! When I read about it on the bus I burst into tears, it was the most hopeless feeling. Just the saddest thing 😥

Statia Manger yes agreed! My ❤️ stopped and it just gave me this horrible feeling inside....But she is resting and breathing easy now for sure 💕😇

Same, it just felt like, someone I knew passed away

Same. My world was shook to its core she was such an inspiration to me. She made me realise that life can be worth living even if it is hard as shit. R.I.P. Claire Lucia Wineland 💐💝💐

Same.

That statement says it all and had me absolutely in tears!

Polly Aitleva I have cystic fibrosis just like her

Jacklynn Ottarson I’m wishing you all the best! stay strong baby!

Polly Aitleva I have alot of guilt. Because I suffer from severe depression. Some days I don’t want to get out of bed. Just makes me feel sad. That I am fully capable of living the type of life that these people are living, and I don’t take advantage of it all the time. 😞

@@gripitl6878 I feel you

She was, I can’t believe she passes away bless her souls.

Ya me too she’s amaizng just like uou

Claire was most deff a true light ,I'm not sure I ever (watched) another one like her ,her eyes showed her soul ,and that soul was the purest light ,

Claire reminds me of you molly honestly .

I’m sorry, I find it gross that people think she was put here by God to teach us a lesson through her suffering and untimely death. It’s a really selfish way to look at things. I know that these things are commonly said and aren’t meant to be offensive, but when people rationalize suffering by thinking that it’s something we need to see in order to learn some sort of lesson about life it, by it’s nature, takes away from the triumphs of the person themselves. She was a wonderful person, she had aspirations, she had goals, and she wanted to live a full life which was unfortunately taken from her by her illness. This is no one’s fault, and it is sad, and scary to see someone so young die in such a way. By making her death inevitable - something pre-ordained by God - it perverts what her death really meant and how sad her death really is. Her life was not for us to learn from, it was for her to live. She decided, buy her own free will, To share her experience and teach those of us who would listen. She was graceful and beautiful, elegant and smart. She had wit and humor, and talent, that outshined her disease. And she deserves all the credit. Don’t take the credit away from her by making this pre-ordained. We can miss her, we can be sad for her, and we can try to set the same examples that she did. Let’s give credit where credit is due.

Ja De may he R.I.P.

Yeah I love that!

Amen to that!

I love that

Yes!

I never even met her, yet I miss her so much as if she was my best friend.

@@its_like_this_onca9068 Claire's life was not a cliffhanger for people to get some sick entertainment from. She was a human being, not a character in a movie. There are a lot of people that were completely affected by her in many ways and a lot of people who are still mourning her passing. You are a sick person for comparing her life to some movie that is there for your entertainment. Seriously, what is wrong with you?

Spoiiilllerrr

@@krismeful agree. and the news about Claire had already been around for months anyway. I knew she passed away, but still watch this video because I wanna see more of her.

@@its_like_this_onca9068 how can you compare a life to a movie

@화모란Hwa molan She died, yes.

It was hard seeing her it’s like it felt like she’s been a friend to us all and then seeing her alive and energetic hit Me right in the sad button in my heart

화모란Hwa molan didn’t you read the person comment that person said that the girl died

Me too.

Dayna H idk why but the fact that you said “sad button” just like melted my heart like it was so pure 🥺

So sorry to hear this sweetie. Sending best wishes to you and her family xx

Sending you the best of wishes ❤️

May she rest in peace and god bless her soul ❤️❤️❤️

So sorry to hear this. RIP to your sweet friend

I'm sorry to hear this love, I hope you're doing at least okay, and I wish the best for everyone who was close to her💜 may god take good care of her and bless her soul. And remember, don't give up, she'd want you to thrive💜💜 hugs and kisses to you xoxo

The sad thing is that the transplant itself was successful. She had a massive stroke afterwards and wouldn't be able to recover. My mum died 2 month before claire. So many beautiful souls die before it's time to go.

I cried when I found out💔

Nadine Espunkt ya it’s sad wayy before

she died a week after her transplant not during says that on her actual site that she died from a stroke one week after her transplant

they said the surgery itself went well claire suffered a stroke when a blood clot cut off blood flow to the right side of her brain

Twysted Cyster the wider chronic illness community was devastated as well :( I really mourned for her, I don’t have CF but I have other chronic illnesses and Claire really helped me to stay inspired and cope

The world as a whole was devestated. We lost so many amazing young, chronic illness warrior women last year.

Twysted Cyster everyone was

@@ClearwaterKB Including Emily Hayward.

I have CML (chronic myeloid leukemia) and I mourned for her. It hurts to lose someone that inspires you so much.

athenaatwar475 me too😔

Right? I'm sad all over again. 😢

Bruce Lee once said the key to immortality is to first live a life worth remembering. His wife also said “A person’s life is not measured by years but by an individual’s contributions.” Claire definitely checked ✅both of them. Her memory lives on

athenaatwar475 I was eager to see this(I didn't know she had passed) but reading the comments broke my heart,she was so light hearted and kind

same :((( i miss her so much

I'm such a fan of hers. Losing her was somehow terribly devastating.

Aww so hurtful rip!!!

Kaylee Visser imagine her being your daughter and losing her 😭 feel so broken for her whole family and parents

Same

I was so hoping she'd survive 😭💔

What a great memory 💝🥰💗😁

🥲

I have mystic too and had meningitis and was in a ventilator!

I guess it's because they've seen the worst, they know how to fully appreciate the little things in life. The things many of us take for granted.

I wished a lot of people knew how much life really is, I try to get my point across people, but some people think I'm just being weird. Life really is a big blessing and you don't have to hate it for one problem, there are many more good things that happened to you.

Honestly, my cystic fibrosis is what makes my life have meaning and make me want to live it as best i can. I’m thankful for it because i wouldnt be the way i am today without it. I wouldnt be so grateful for life and appreciate everything. I wouldnt be trying my hardest to make other peoples life easier in any way i can because i know how inconvenience can tear people down. Most especially with how mentally ill so many of us are.

Its showing gratitude, anyone can do it. These people were forced to see it.

@@inhaledexhaled5460that's good. stay strong!

Lol, me too. I just found the channel Special Books Special kids. I wanna binge watch the channel but I become an emotional wreck after most episodes. I dont usually cry that much but its been a daily accuracy since I've been watching stuff like this, and RU-vid keeps recommending similar types of videos. Mostly happy tears, some guilty tears, some " why god " tears. We're blessed to be in a time where we can hear all their stories. I honestly hate social media some days but its great for what's it done at connecting us. Cheers have a great day. Good luck in this video game we call life.

Yup! RU-vid everyday for some reason 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

So true 😟

I didn't think I would cry. I was wrong 😿

Right!!!!! Now I'm just ugly crying

Well sed Hun x 👍🙂

👍

Exactly 💞

She was one of a kind💜broke my heart that she could not live out her life!!🥺

At the very least, she passed happy and comfortably. While it's so devastating, she accomplished so much in her short lifetime. As a disabled person she couldn't have brought me more inspiration than she did.

@@sneepsnorp1404 even with new lungs she probably wouldn't have lived very long.. Maybe 3 or 4 years max.. And we don't know how uncomfortable her death would have been.

I mean.. she did have a successful surgery. I don’t know if the blood clot and stroke were related to the surgery or not but the surgery wasn’t the problem

Amelia Rose I’m pretty sure they came as a result of her surgery, if not you still know what I mean. I was convinced she’d get her surgery, and I’d see her smiling face posting on Instagram soon after.

@@allidoiscry4119 I've thought about that a lot too. I would certainly chose one over the other.

she was such an awesome person that so many people looked up to, I think I even had a girl crush! so sad seeing such wonderful people suffer like this the world lost a great girl

Same here. She taught me to appreciate everything....actually appreciate life

She actually moved me to tears with her speech, I wished more people can see the world the same way she does, life is just too important.

I didn't understand the meaning of this line fully...???

I can't stand your comment

God bless u my sister had brain tumour from age 5 till she died age 20 so don't u give up u fight till the end like she did she was a fighter she lost her site she had operation and still degind them I wish u all the happiness the love in the world I. Send u a massive kiss, hug

Sending many many many blessings your way. I hope everything turns out ohkay for you! I know there’s not much words can do, but if you ever need to talk.. don’t be afraid to message me. Sending you lots of hugs too 💕💕💕💕

Sarah Cheesman thank you for all your kind words and wishes! I had an mri a week ago and I’m still tumor free! Soon to be wrapping up treatments and moving on with my life😊❤️

Destiny Rose thank you! So far I’ve been seizure and tumor free since initial diagnosis! 😊❤️

thomas bailey That’s amazing!!! I’m so delighted to hear that! I hope your life continues to flourish, and you become an unstoppable force. You deserve a world of happiness ❤️

Right? I found myself thinking the same thing.

Claire would say that your problems still are important and listen to you talk about them. Someone else's suffering doesn't make yours less important.

Have you looked into CAP they’ve helped so many people get out of debt x

Everyone's problems matter. It's okay to be upset about being in debt for a little bit bc debt is your biggest problem. But after feeling bad for a moment make an action plan to do something to fix it. :)

namewithay thank you for saying this!! It’s so important. It’s like saying just because someone’s happier than you means you can’t be happy. It makes no sense

Im so sorry i lost my father 1yr ago im battling cancer now i see wat he went through its hard

I'm sorry for your loss, cancer takes away the people we love, and also took a lot of good people, we should take care of ourselves in order for us not to be fallen victim to these damn diseases and some day that the cure for cancer will come

Oh my god. She's my hero.

How to live a life to the fullest? Please advise..

Silvester AMV i have a different perspective too

Sreejith Radhakrishnan just enjoy it and never take it for granted!

Claire’s motivational words are beautiful & are resonating with me today. She continues to make a difference in lives. Thank you & sending you love & good vibrations.

She was so cool ♥️

Yeah the way she talked about life is just amazing and makes you appreciate what you have.

Rhea Shah she passed away.

Momma Wendy 😭 oh my gosh no!!

We miss her too ❤️

Me too

What’s her channel

My favourite book in the world

oh my. This book changed my life.

Hello how're you doing today hope you and your family are safe due to the covid 19 pandemic?

Allison Miller Same. I’m even older though. Claire was super articulate and intelligent.

I swear he is literally my inspiration everyday

It’s not always that easy. I have physical health conditions and I suffer from depression and PTSD. Put them together and some days the only thing that gets me out of bed is the pain. I keep the paracetamol in the kitchen so I have to get up and move about as much as I can, but my various ailments make serious exercise impossible. I have to limit food intake to lose weight to put less stress on my body...so that I can exercise again, but the calorie deficit causes tiredness and chronic fatigue is a side effect of my cardiac condition and some of the medication I have to take. That said, these people do inspire me to do better. They are all so generous and beautiful and I wish them the very best and thank them profusely.

everyone is different. i have multiple health issues and people think i look fine but its hard to even shower some days

Does he still have leukemia?

Sophia Ellis Absolutely. all of these individuals were inspiring and we can all take something from them.

Kate and Babes I’m showing my workout partner this video! No more complaining about running ever again. Huge inspiration

VADER.

Uglyy Boii my guess is that he changed it when he found out he was terminal just cuz

@Mimi it's a smart decision to tell that to the right teenager. Otherwise it's a cool saying

especially if you hit another car

That was my dad’s favorite saying. His friends still say it to me when I see them. It makes me happy and brings back sweet memories. My dad passed suddenly in 2007.

She has sadly passed away

Same

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

May you be blessed with good health for many years to come. ❤❤

@@youaintgettingmyhandle ❤️❤️

Helen Sae Life is unfair sometimes, but that's just... life, we should make the most of it. I'm glad that you can be able to recover btw. 💞

Hi Helen. I have skin cancer...Basil Cell. Mines aggressive and must be checked every 3 months. Life is in the moment. I take my sobriety, my marriage, my life, in that day. That moment. Life IS❤

Same...hodgkin's lymphoma survivor 7 yrs now.

So true.

Jade Eliot seriously same! I’m crying so hard, I didn’t know her personally but man it felt like I did. As with many people!

It's almost incredible, like... she was learning how to experience the vulnerability of being hopeful for good things pretty much at the same time I was. I'm not dealing with terminal illness myself, but I had some rough years in my late teens and early twenties that deeply skewed my perspective on what my future could look like... and then I learned I could rely on my friends and family again, and then I found an online community dedicated to positive storytelling (which is how I describe The Adventure Zone and the fans because it Really Genuinely Isn't Just A DnD Podcast) and realized that there were others out there who wanted good things too, and then I started dating my boyfriend who became my fiancé within about a year. And I think that's a good part of why Claire's death was so devastating for me; it was beautiful and intensely relatable to see her opening up to the possibilities of living for that much longer. She deserved more than anyone to have the transplant and recovery go well and to experience the payoff of that hope.

Cherish , each day like its your last , because nothing is promised for tomorrow.All theses strong-minded individual whose life took an unexpected turn but they are positive and shows us always be thankful for your health.

Chances for what? Nothing good can come out of fast driving only bad . It is very immature to think that.

For the Love of Mike, powerful words you shared. Letting go of petty things will go a long way in healing relationships and healing ourself. Find the joy - what a beautiful statement. Blessings to you and your husband. I hope his strength is carrying him through.

@@thisorthat7626 Thank you so much for your kind words 💕 We just posted an update on Wednesday for our FB friends but needed to put it on YT due to its length if you want to see our quick update. XO XO

@@ForTheLoveOfMike thank you for letting me know about the update. I will watch it. Blessings.

Thank you

I'm right there with you. 😊😇

Kinda seems like bad advice though in terms of driving

@@christiangasior4244 kinda seems like no one asked your opinion, yet here we are 🤷🏼‍♀️

@@Teaelle22 It's a comment section. None of us are asked for our opinion. I'm sorry it came off as more rude than I intended. All I meant was the combination of driving fast and taking chances sounds super dangerous if you think about it literally. I get what he meant, though.

I used to carry a Winston matchbook cover that said 'If I stopped raising hell, my dad would call me a quitter'. RIP dad.

@@MM-Iconoclast I LOVE that saying

Kat wasn’t with cancer She has never once shown a piece of paper, scan, and nothing nobody has ever seen her in the hospital or clinic or anything. She did all that for fame and money. Isn’t it funny that go fund me dried up completely

@@gurlfiend76 Thank You! I

gurlfiend76 such a ridiculous comment...do you know her personally? I work with this beautiful soul and if you call “fame and fortune” working in a call center then I guess you’re right LMAO 😂

@gurlfiend 76.. do you Know something we don't? Be careful about judging, God is the true and only judge. Did you learn nothing from these beautiful videos??

I have too admit I'm confused about the kat woman ,so many people have stepped forward, and said the exact same thing, as the person quoted on here ,that she never ,told the truth about cancer ,and we are talking alot of people !!!have come forward saying that she faked her own health problems ,I personally don't know ,!!!but it is very strange ,about all the people saying she is a fraud ,weird ,not sure ,why that is ,but if she is genuine ;that's really bad !!but if she is not telling the truth ,then I can't even go there !!!!

I'm deeply touched by their stories too 💕

That's the problem with cancer, they can remove the symptoms and tumors and you think it's gone, but it's really not because the root CAUSE of what started it in the first place is still there, most likely a genetic component, an immune system defect allows cancer to grow in the first place.

Hope they are still with us, I can't find them but still

You really believe Kat? I don't.

ThePattycake1313 what do you mean?

Lisa so sorry for your loss 🌈

@@burgandiwatson2477 Thank you. 😊

Aww who treated her bad, soo sad

@@tracyshelton5599 the channel The Clarity Project, claire wanted to her channel to do in a different way. And the people who were "helping" her took total control and basically said NO. Claire created her own channel and posted a video about it. I just dont understand how people could be so heartless.

@sWord smith since her passing her channel has been heavily redacted and more than half of her videos are gone. Its not there I did look for it, because I commented support to her. Its sad that people wont leave peoples feelings out there. She felt a certain way and while I understand Claire is super pure, she had feelings and she told her public when bad things happened and when they took advantage of her. Thats why clarity project didnt post about Claire until she passed.

@@ebonyperkins4129 So they deleted her videos, so there was more. Her mom is uploading some videos, but it would be great that she could get the deleted videos from her stole channel.
