It's probably not easy for most people to do such a thing. Which is exactly why someone would appreciate it. People (even some in this group) have been vulnerable on their vlogs before and I'm sure people will continue to be.

Richard,
I HOPE that was said "tongue in cheek," but I do not know you, and I
shall not judge... but if it were YOU in his position... could you
so easily perform?
I actually did make a statement in one of my first video's that
could be applicable to this very situation... and I hope all will
bear with me and really look at what I am about to propose.
I believe that ALL of us that are able, should make documentary
videos, even if not for general view... perhaps just for documented
information for your descendants. Think about this... might you be
interested if you came across a book or diary, written by one of
your great great grandparents when one of their loved ones was dying
of Typhoid or diphtheria or some disease that we now have cures for?
Perhaps in 100 years, a great great grand child would find
tremendous strength and courage that they had never known after
seeing the strength of your convictions... to see that you had the
love and compassion for your wife to stick it out with her when all
the rest of our "disposable society" might more easily walk away
through divorce.
Yes, if you have the strength... make your VBlog... even if it is
not "the best"... no one says you have to share it right now... but
you may be making something that your future sons and daughters will
look back upon and say "WOW... what they went through back then"
I'm Rob Reedy, and those are my thoughts.
