Watching these older videos (I guess I'm in mourning): You won EVERYTHING, Em! You beat the odds over and over. You never let cancer take away your joy of life. You fought like a boss and you KICKED ITS A$S. I am so proud of you and I think EVERYONE needs to watch these videos when they feel like they're facing something that's seemingly insurmountable. The other day, I saw a well-meaning person try to inform other RU-vid subbers (who aren't on IG) of Emily's passing. The woman commented "She finally lost her battle with cancer." I didn't want to comment and hurt her feelings, but HELL NO, you didn't "lose" anything. You won it ALL -- you lived more life; did more things; inspired more people; ate more chicken (🤣); made more good, loving friends; and smashed more goals than many people will in their entire, longer lives. SO, GO GIRLS! I didn't realize how much the two of you had become my imaginary life coaches/BFFs and real-life role models until after Em passed and I realized I still needed to watch these vids -- better than any motivational speaker -- often, like a drug. You made people happy and gave them hope in such a healthy way. Thank you so much. This channel making such a positive impact on so many lives and, in doing so, making the world a more lovely, bearable place is proof to me that, yes, there is a higher power that does, in fact, still give a damn. Because this right here is a great and wonderful gift to anyone who finds it.
TheErinnF couldn’t agree more,I thought it would hurt to watch these,but somehow it’s helping. It’s a positive beautiful legacy she left,and aren’t we lucky to have it?
TheErinnF : That is such a beautiful message and really expresses my sentiments as well. Never met Emily and only became a sub shortly before she passed but, I'm also in mourning for her as well. It's even strange that I find myself missing her. 😔 Its just not fair that this has happened to her and Aisha. The most beautiful couple. Two unbelievably strong ladies, I'll never have that kind of strength as I'm too damn insecure. Take care..
She absolutely won her fight. She made a video saying she wasn't going to deteriorate and she didn't...it was fast and peaceful..she passed on her own terms not on cancers terms deteriorating in pain. She won her fight till the end 💕
Hey Em, I miss your videos. I know that time passes but not a week goes by without me thinking how grateful I am to have had the privilege of watching your vlogs. You left a huge space that can only be filled with kindness. Hope they are enjoying your beautiful presence wherever you may be I know this world is a better place for having had your footsteps on it.
If only the cancer stayed like that .Emily will be the brightest star in the sky .She was a beautiful person inside and out .I hope you are doing ok Aisha .You deserve the best in life .You were Emily’s rock .
RIP baby girl I’m binge watching your videos I’ve already seen them but don’t wanna forget about you. You was a strong woman hope you’re kicking ass up there in the gym. X
I love seeing you when you're happy! Both of you Em& Aisha, you ladies so wonderful! Wish it had a better outcome bit you truly did enjoy life as much as possible! You're a shining example of positivity & Aisha too. 💕
I'm so happy for you both Emily you're smashing cancer!! go and enjoy your holiday together :). I've got my next big scans in November so I know what's like playing the waiting game hoping it's stable every 3 or 6 months but also realizing it's still there, I still watch and check for your video updates daily. I've just finished exams so I will give you an email at some stage when you're back for a chat. When you speak so truthfully and real about your experience dealing with everything the good and the bad it gives me hope and I can relate with your feelings. Aisha is amazing she is so understanding and supportive, enjoy celebrating your wonderful news together.
Hi Dwayne! Thanks for you message...i appreciate you support a lot so don't ever think it doesn't make a difference. please do drop me an email whenever. Aisha is definitely 1 in a billion. I'm a very lucky girl. if i don't speak to you before then i hope your scans are ok. x
So happy for you both! Excited to see videos from your trip. :) That feeling never goes away though. I actually quit seeing my oncologist about five or six years after treatment because I felt like it just kept me on edge and unable to relax and forget I had cancer. It took about 2 years and I had to call because something happened to set up an appt. I was a total nervous wreck and realized not going to get the yearly all clear was actually worse.
Wow. I could feel the nerves and stress, I was convinced it was going to bed a bad result and the knots in my stomach were growing. I know later I will have to witness the vlog where the girls receive the news they didn’t want. Emily, you’re a hero.
Tears welling up here looking at this knowing what was to come . All the little sweetheart wanted was to live her life... why couldn't she have been allowed to? She had so much to give.
Im soo amazed at your perseverance and courage in these vlogs you and Aisha were a pair to contend with !!💪👍 I hope Aisha and her family are doing ok now xx much love, and thanks for sharing all of this with us xx
Thought of you and Aisha today Em. I was going through some stuff that felt particularly difficult then I remebered how great both you ladies are and it helped me get through things in a more positive way. Aisha I hope you know how inspirong you are.
Brilliant news... Enjoy your holiday and I'm sure in April there will be another type of treatment it's amazing what they can do these days... You so deserve to beat it ! X
. I'm so happy for you. I literally had an upset stomach when a notification came up saying there was a video. I am glad that you and Aisha can now go to Turkey. Take lots of video! I love the videos you take of London and the area where you live. HUGS!!!
AHHH i love this comment.... it made me smile a lot. Thanks so much for the lovely words, we are so happy and relived and it is so nice to share good news! I will be putting up as much footage as i can for sure. xxxx
She should be here. She deserved to live a full life, have children, if she wanted, and to grow old with her wife. Sorely missed, Emily. We will never forget you.
YAY - happy, happy for you! My oncologist said we are now 5 times more likely to get a second primary site - USE SUNSCREEN LIBERALLY! Enjoy your holiday, looking forward to pictures:)
