A Family Upside Down

A feel good movie in deed! Born in 1960, growing up in the 70’s…I love watching movies that take me back when times were so innocent.

Just remember how innocent now will seem 5 years from now, and bless today. It’s a good movie with some great stars who were clearly still better than most actors today in their golden years.

Taking care of my father when he got a cancer diagnosis of a few months was so hard to watch but was the greatest gift. Being able to be there for him and spend that time was priceless. Yes I had to leave my husband and kids and go states aways but it was worth every second. My mother died suddenly right before my fathers diagnosis so he was alone. Even though my brother lived next door he was too bothered to help him and "had a family". Smh. Like I didnt? It was shameful but I'm the one that recieved the gift of taking care of him and spending that special time. But I have to say even though it was priceless time i got to spend with him I dont know whats worse seeing you parent suffer or them dying suddenly like my mother. I wish I could have spoke with her and been there to hold her. So sadly I've seen it both ways.

[@animula6908]

My grandma taught me you shouldn’t really expect men to have a caregiving impulse. If they do, fine, but if not don’t hold it against them. You’re wasting your time and energy. I’ve always observed it to be true, like most things she taught me. I’m pretty sure I thought it was nonsense when she taught me. Also true of most of what she taught me.

[@carolpowell8142]

That Kind of Love is, so Beautiful ❣️ PEOPLE THAT FIND THAT KIND OF LOVE IS SO BLESSED!!!! 💞

[@jaellouis4749]

Can't imagine ever thinking that my grandparents were an inconvenience. I never got tired of spending time with them. And I would never have raised my voice or used a tone when speaking to them. I just loved them too much for that.

[@christiancisco7444]

Me either! I don't have any living grandparents or parents anymore and I am only 28... Oh what I would do to have them back even for just 1 day! My grandma on my mom's side lived to be 95 and all my life I went to spend the night with her and just hang out with her and I loved every minute of it! She told me all kinds of stories about every stage of her life and we played Yahtzee and she was an amazing southern cook! I would have never dreamed of thinking she was a burden!

[@marva2170]

@@christiancisco7444 I feel so lucky to have had grandparents until I turned 41. That's when I lost my last one. So many happy times visiting them in Wisconsin. Yahtzee and UNO! My other grandparents went earlier but I miss them too, I actually lived with my grandfather for a while after my grandma's passing.

[@lyndsaysrebornnurseryoffib4241]

I’m never going to be ready to let my parents go when it’s their time! I’m very close with my mom we call & text each other every day and once a week we have girl days! We always have supper together at her and my stepdad house! I’m not looking forward to see my mom grow old same with my dad we aren’t as close but I do text him often! I miss having my grandpa he passes away when I was 10 years old! I miss seeing my grandma haven’t seen her in 2 years I call her often she gives the best advice and she’s a great dancer for being almost 94!

Think is such a wonderful and deep love story .so glad I've got to watch this movie. Thank you

Yes a very feel good movie. Loved all the actors in the movie.

[@kricketlangendoerfer8387]

I can't believe all the Patty Duke movies that I've never seen. 😻😻

[@vsibirsky]

I think Patty chose these movies because it was "work" she needed but I am sure she had good times working on this movie because her co- stars were of the older generation and they were the movie greats.

[@CaraHTheRealCie]

My first job as a nurse aide was in 1988. We were advised to bring dementia patients "back to reality." In truth, doing so was cruel. These people were never going to get better. Fred Astaire's character had it right. His roommate was happy believing he was on his farm. He should be allowed to keep doing so. Thankfully, the standard of care for dementia patients later involved dealing with them within the framework of their reality. I can't imagine treating elderly people like idiot children the way Mike's parents were treated. However, that's the way it used to be done. The father probably would have complied with treatment better if he'd been allowed to do things he enjoyed with modifications rather than being told he couldn't do them at all. Sometimes people need to be moved to long-term care. Those folks shouldn't have been forced to move from their home. They just needed a little help. The movie does bring up a good point. The help needed is often difficult to afford. It shouldn't be that way. People like Mike's parents would benefit from a welfare check, a little help around the house, and help with transportation so they could continue living independently.

[@ΧριστίναΜαγουλα-β1ξ]

Touching movie... Poor old folks alive but not living...❤

[@patriciagospelcabello4227]

I love watching movies like this but sad but good I wish they will put movie on LMN and lifetime also may God be the glory to these beautiful people

[@TripleG69]

Fred Astaire was one of my favourite actors. Loved watching his old movies. Patty Duke was a great actress and played every single roll with everything she had in her. Never half measure but all in.

[@cynthianolder3557]

I read Patti's book, "Call me Anna" She was very troubled, & angry for years. Glad she finally got diagnosed with Bipolar, & put on lithium You tend to forget all that when you see her acting. Helen Keller! amazing!

[@thequeenb8404]

And I that isn't Fred. I don't know this mans name.

[@chriscoo8367]

Caregiving is hard, but rewarding. We are bringing someone home today who we aren’t how it will go, or if we can physically manage at home. This was only on my playlist because I watched the making of valley of the dolls and got interested in patty duke, but it was so comforting to see. And just sweet story to watch anyway.
