Thanks so much for sharing this story Joe. I subscribed and listened because of Veezy, but I definitely have a lot of empathy for what you've gone through. I've had kidney disease for the last 11 years and have gone through 2 failed kidney transplants and almost 5 years of dialysis. There's a lot of questions that go through your mind when you're sick...Why me? What can I do?? Those kinds of things. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you pick yourself up again. Thanks (cont'd)
for letting me feel like I'm not the only person who has some health issues, but most of all...Thanks for your honesty in describing everything. I know that I would have a hard time sitting in front of a camera and talking about my personal issues. I really admire the courage you have to be able to address this and give other people the strength to possibly do the same thing. I'll stop rambling... Thanks again for a great vid!
Much respect for sharing your story!! I have tried to stay as drama free as possible since day one on youtube, We all have our daily and life problems and youtube should be that needed break from reality. Telling your story should set the perspective right for a lot of people who take youtube way too seriously. For that I say THANK YOU!!
Thanks for sharing Sir! I cannot imagine going through what you go through. Yet, your positive attitude on life is something all of us can share. Stay positive and Peace!

Truly inspiring, and I have nothing but the utmost rescepct for what you go thru on a daily basis, but for having the courage to come out and openly address it. Mad Props ! GO PACK GO......Next Year. God Bless Bro.
Great message to spread man, it's good that being through all that didn't make you bitter at life like it does to many other people. Thanks to Veezy for referring me to this video, it must have been a challenge to make this video and I respect you for doing it!

WOW brother you literally brought tears to my eyes man. I know that was hard to get out and I respect you a million times more now that you told everyone about your condition. It takes a true man to tell people about something in your life like this. I dont go through the somethings as you but I felt the pain I honestly did in a different way. I know how it is to be strung out and to kin of lose hope. You are an awesome person bro and your outlook on life changed my night man.
I respected you for who you were before, and now even more so, I am glad that you found the courage to let it out, life is not fair, and a person has to try and play the hand they are dealt and its damn tough some times, You are a man of great Character, and I feel very lucky to have crossed paths with you. YA know Joe, for a Packer fan you just aint to bad of a guy! I look forward to continued friendship in the coming year, and if ya need anything, gimme a hollar.

All I can say is THANK YOU for making this video. We sometimes loose site of things and what we are all here for in this community. I applaud your courage and sharing your story with all of us. I have been to rock bottom before in my life a few times and I know what it takes to bring yourself back from the depths of hell. I was sent here from Veezy and I have not had the opportunity to get to know you, but it is obvious that you are a very strong willed and even stronger individual

Joe, I loved you before this video, I love you more now. Homo or no homo, I respect and admire the heck out of you. Can't explain what it meant to me when you shared this with me a while back, and can't help but think I've let you down. THANK YOU for this video! Not just for me, but for everyone lucky enough to watch it. I've always watched your videos looking for something to comment on and leave a joke about because it always seems you appreciate it. But I've only got one comment for this.
@Bertcat8 ILU2 Joey!! I just may surprise you one day and show my face. I can't do it right now because I am using the video camera on my phone. I will eventually upgrade and go big time lol. We need to get Julian off his ass and get a PCFTW going so we can hang out on blog!!
