And he doesn't even know it.

Not remembering that you just ate a lovely meal in the splendid environment with family is just very very sad.

@MsMesem I agree with you. It's very sad. You also have to find some humor in it to stay sane and not get overwhelmed with emotions.

@@qschronicles4985 I am stating what everyone is afraid to Say. Humour has Its limits eventually.

@@MsMesemWhat was the lovely meal that he just ate?🤔🧐

True....sending love ❤️ from South Africa 🇿🇦

Is...still is. Worrying how they are doing. Defenitely "what a father he is". He reminds me very much of my own father, born 1932 too and even in many ways looking and actually alike. My dad passed away Xmas 2019.

@frejahedeman8638 yes "is" Thank you 🙂

Bless you children, a blessing from God to be so patient and loving to your Da.

I agree

I noticed that too! Ever a gentleman ❤

That's because he doesn't care for him on a daily basis. Mark, Dan and Danielle do a fantastic job with Ed. It is very hard to care for someone on a daily basis. I know because I had family member like Ed. It is not easy by any means. They do a fantastic job 👏 ❤

@@wendycooper3263no that’s because he’s a good son and Ed was a great father

@@wendycooper3263 ,you are missing the point..I'm not saying that others don't care for him..they all do a fantastic job but I'm talking about the interaction..I watched them at the family reunion where all of them gathered and others were not engaging him that much in the conversation except Dan who had to patiently answer Ed(their dad) any question he asked even if he has asked same question before like 10 times..

@winifredokonkwo2329 Yes I notice that too. The others don’t put the same effort in. I’m sure Mark does because he has Grandpa 50/50 I think. I would take my turn looking after Grandpa if I was allowed too! I love his conversations and questions ☺️

Please stop talking about what you 'think' might happened....you might accidentally just caused BREAK UP their sibling relationship. Each of them loves their Dad in different ways. Dan is very sweet! and may be Dan"s siblings are not as comfortable infront of the camera as Dan. Just enjoy their sweet interaction, do NOT put down the others.

I agree. I think there's a big reason why Ed is so agreeable. It's because Dan, Danielle and Mark care for him so well, and with such patience and humor.

Perfectly said ❤

God Bless you Dan your So Patient with Your Dad.. I enjoy all yours and Danielle's Videos..

Have A Wonderful, Sunday Night and Have a Wonderful Week, Jo Ann age 65 Lake City,Fla.. North Fla.

I know right? Keeps Asking the same questions over and over, each time as polite and sweetly answered as the first. To him it is the first. Love you guys

I thought that was great too. He didn’t get anything to eat at all.. just two plates. He must be hungry again. Hope you guys brought some leftovers lol love you guys totally appreciate y’all make my heart grow.

​@@leslierutledge7196I think he don't remember eating

⁠​⁠@@godslove7928good observation!!?? Obviously these commenters are aware that he doesn’t remember eating! They are simply commenting how they felt about Grandpa Ed not remembering that he had eaten…possibly because he often does this, and is always game for a snack. LOL. You may wanna think on some of these comments before being so quick on the trigger to reply. Just sayin… Long Live Ed!!!! And God Bless Dan, Danielle, Mark & the rest of the family who are supporting & surrounding this wonderful man with such Loving care, kindness, and a patience that can only be given by those who genuinely care for him. Clearly this man is still helping others, and touching many lives across the globe!!!

@@godslove7928 your allowed to have an opinion.

LOL. I suspect he was perfectly rational, at that point, and trying to score some cake at home.

God helps us raise our children too you can do nothing right with out him and we don't stop to give Him the glory it away about us.

​@@leoniehendrickson2530 • Some parents raise their children without God and you can see the results in the quality of their lives.

❤❤❤❤

Where is mom... I haven't seen her

Yeah we need to see Joanne. Dad’s forever crush 😅

She didn't want to be filmed.

So Josh really isn’t in trouble .. love grandpa 💞

MaiMai- Josh has been in some past videos too. There's even one where he cuts Ed's hair. Their channel has previous videos and shorts that you can view if you want to.

Dave's house is a treasure trunk holding Grandpa's wallet, keys, phone & back again! Dave's house 🏡

I now want to visit Dave and hang out by the river.

Which one was josh...the music or bald

I thought he asked Josh,his youngest son ,Was he gonna sleep at his house tonight,& Josh being a wise son just said sure.

@@bibekjung7404 what are you a bot

Yeah, because my daughter can’t wait. She’s counting that money I’m leaving her. Other than that, she’s too “busy” trying to be a social media mogul and has time only for herself, I was told. I’ll probably be in a rest home with no one to care. This grandpa is a very, very blessed man to have a family that cares.

​@@curlyb4c95 Sad about your situation but please focus on aging gracefully. Be kind to yourself to enjoy life now. A whole new world with a fresh outlook will draw folk to you. Ed is a wonderful example for us all. Cyber hugs to you! 🥰

@@curlyb4c95I hope she realizes soon how important a mother is. I live in the US,but where I am from we don’t put our elderly in nursing home. My mom is the most important person in my entire life and I don’t want to go a day not hearing from her.She means life to me

He is very lucky to have all of you. There are people with dimentia in old folks homes that are not looked after...very sad

Thank you

Yep

I thought the same thing

Me too..a real gentleman

Did he call her lady?

Yep I noticed, always a gentle mam.

He heard "mom" was going and he jumped up without a second thought. I want a love like this, if it is even possible.

It was Zac not Josh agreeing to him.

​@kfresne3011 that was Josh. Zach was the one playing the piano

True - it doesn't hurt anyone and no malice to just agree - sometime constantly repeating and emphasising gets more frustrating and confusing when actually to hear someone simply agree with what you say is gratifying.

Bless you and him. ❤❤

Just lost our Dad in May. You won’t regret all that you do for him.

So glad to hear this sweetheart 😘❤

They all walk as their Dad that's something funny the looks as Brothers with their Dad 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🙏🙏

👍👍👍

I noticed that too!!

His wife calls it the Salinger Shuffle 🤣

😂Love to see all the boys. Yep they all walk all the same🚶‍♂️😁❤️Rosie O from Devon England 🇬🇧👏

Ed was divorced 46 years ago. He didn't stay around that long! Give credit to the wife/mom pls.

Grandpa divorced his wife when Josh was almost a kid WOW

@@joneal8360how do you know he didn’t stick around for them?

It's obvious he stayed and remained in their lives.

​@arianayoung7537 he divorced when Dan was a kid. Josh was born from a 2nd marriage. Josh is 17 years younger than Dan.

Bless you Steven. I'm so sorry you missed out on such important things.

So sorry you lost your dad so young

I had an absent father and he died when i was 20. This is how i imagined we would be when we were older. 🥺♥️ same here, i get to live it watching Ed and Dan.

Very very unfortunate for you. It's hard to lose a parent at any age, I think it's especially hard when you're a young kiddo. I don't know you sir but I wish you well always. Peace.

Thank you!

Yesssssss

💞💞💞

That shows that he must been wonderful dad ,and still is even ill

Yep. Fooled me too 😂

😂🤣😂🤣

Me too😂

😂😂😂

😊

❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂 He didn’t eat anything

What a great family

I couldn’t agree more! This family makes me laugh. Quite an incredible and loving family.

If you don’t see that there are still great people left, here on earth, then you are simply close minded, and ignorant to the fact that children, elderly, and animals exist. What a moron. 🙄 “sOuNdEd GoOd” 🙄

Tortoise and the hare. 🇺🇸 🇩🇪

I was once told .. I have the blessing of getting old . Saggy baggy skin and tight joints are a blessing to enjoy. If you get there:)

Me too. It sure does. Better than the alternative though

Yes, they really should let poor Ed eat! Those 2 plates that Dan saw him eat must have just been in his mind because Ed "didn't eat anything at all." 😆😆😆💜💜💜

I’m so sorry for your loss 💔. I lost my dad 20 years ago and I still miss him

❤ I lost my dad in 2013 and it shook me to the core. Your joy will come back. I talk to my dad every day. I know he sees me. I ask him to pray for me and the memories that used to make me cry now make me smile.

😅Dad said that he didn't eat anything at all

Jesus sends His angels through people to help us!❤ This was probably how HE helped you through your pain!❤🙏 when we feel down and lonely Jesus will give us peace which he promises us!❤

When I would see women who looked like my Mother, before she passed away, I'd cry. It's so hard to lose her.

Have to say that Jews are almost always successful. Even from humble beginnings, they seem to rise well above. Smart and driven to provide well for their families. Kind of in their genetic makeup. That and blessings from Above.

i enjoy every minute of your videos. i watch you guys everyday. Ed is a gem. i love him. thank you

Grandpa Ed always comes with an appetite 😆

At this point in time, he is living a great life. The only sadness is he can't remember it and cherish the clear love his kids have for him and his wife. His problem protects him from so much at this stage. With loving protection, he is having a great life. His biggest worry in life is his car keys, and he doesn't even need them. There are people his age who DO remember they have only eaten scraps for a month, that worry about paying rent, or having money for heating through a hard winter. Much of life, people spoil in just negative thinking. Of seeing everything as a tragedy, when so far, Ed's life is blessed. He is cradled by loving family, well fed, every need looked after. And his biggest worry is his car keys, aged over 90. I can think of 50 old people who would swap in a heartbeat. If you want to dwell on everything as a tragedy, your life will be needlessly miserable - and nobody will seek your company. Any chance you can laugh, giggle or grin, in kindness, is a great life lived He can have 100 great thrills in life, daily and they fade, to be replaced. He can be told every day, that his favorite movie star is a personal friend and coming over for a beer, that he is a multi millionaire, that he was once pursued by Marilyn Monroe. Whilst those names mean anything, he will be excited, happy, intrigued. Tomorrow, no memory, no disappointment. You can invent joy for these people and NEVER see their faces disappointed. People appear to think looking sad and patting his hand and wiping tears away will make his life happy? He's going off to put on his best clothes to meet his old girlfriend, Racquel Welch - and in a half hour, when you check on him, he might have happily decided it was time to go to bed and changed into pyjamas and gone to sleep. And Racquel can come over tomorrow. She has nothing better to do... Fill life with joy and laughter

JP- I guess you don't realize that Dan had to start the retirement process early due to his heart issues and stressful career, not because he was rolling in money. They created their channels to help caregivers and family members learn more about dementia and also to hopefully supplement their income.

⁠@@BoardwalkAngel231And they deserve everything they earn from the channel, bring them even more because it’s a good message also! But just out of curiosity, how much can they bring in on a channel Like this? Havnt seen any ads except in the start of the video like everyone.

All I was saying is “Good job! “ He is still smart , otherwise he wouldn’t be able to keep his lifestyle. You don’t need to be crazy wealthy to retire early. Just money smart 😉

@@AMGWCLass those ads add up they are making a good bit.. probably even better then when he was working. i know ppl that started youtube and was working also ans they quit work cuz youtube was the better of them and decided to upload eveeyday n also if they are on facebook to that really brings in the money

Yes, that's probably one of the reasons that he's so Mobile. He also seems to get consistent exercise. Too many people don't seem to understand that if he gets food every time he doesn't remember eating, weight gain can lead to high cholesterol and blood pressure.

This is what I was thinking. Must be hard. I can see forgetting you are but not sure why you would think you were hungry. Either way you all do such a great job with him and he is in great shape.

I think ED was always a {physically fit} kinda fellow, never {allowed} himself to become {overweight} which carried on into his {elder}years, he {conditioned} his body to a certain amount of food intake. My mom did the same, plus can an {elderly} person really become {obese} in their 80’s or 90’s??
