Loving caring families eventually take on this role. It's hard but that's what you do for the ones you love that played this same role with you.

Taking care of someone with Alzheimer's, or dementia isn't 1/10 of what you see. There are good days and terrible days.

You see small clips... I enjoy the videos and Dan seems like a great guy, but that doesn't mean he doesn't experience the full range of emotions.

Dan is only 56, while Mark is older, tholder you get is extremely hard to take on caring for a loved one, especially if Dementia is the ailing problem.

My personality is of caring, patience, tolerance, an only child now almost 80, my husband of 62 yrs is totally opposite, short fuse mostly over nothing. This is how we survived.

Sorry for the family of your renter for their loss. It's a beautiful house I'm sure you'll be able to rent it out fast. Not too bad at all for 10 years!

[@kclarke2971]

Very nice of you to think of his Family, I pray for their comfort also.

[@LoisFox131]

My Mom sold her house and moved in with us. She passed in her bed, after a long illness ten years later. Caring for your loved ones is completing the full circle and is what everyone should do if they are able. I did all the things you’re doing. They are your family and always will be. You are wonderful sons and I can only hope my sons are there for us.❤

This is so endearing to watch. I lost my ex father in-law to Alzheimer's. It still hurts after 12 + years. He was the sweetest person I ever had the privilege to know.

I hate when I hit my head on a hanging light.... "it's a rental Dad!" Life is all about the everyday inteactions and the little things. You are fantastic sons and caregivers to your wonderful Dad!

[@nomzamozondo8410]

Ed is so blessed with his two sons. ❤️ ❤

[@barbarahylton1869]

Dan you are so adorable with your dad .You are so protective and patient with your dad I always enjoy the interaction with you and your dad Continue to love and care for him. He has a wonderful life with you

[@stjernkvistj3666]

Dad and Mark walks EXACTLY the same!!! 😂

[@damngoodyear]

I love Mark, Dan and Dad because they are really good guys and they have good hearts and it’s just nice to see that loved - that shared love. All the best, Dani

[@user-ht3hf8sy4c]

What a sweet trio. You all are amazing…So kind to your Papa.💕

[@williolaalexander1192]

Mark and dad is two of a kind. In looks and personality. I just love grandpa; he's a sweet man. He makes me laugh a out his keys and his chest book. Dan, you are so patient with him. May God bless you, and your family. Danielle is funny. ❤

[@septembertrese1977]

the important thing is dad Ed is never left out of your lives. i am glad that you all care for him❤

[@ceecee3488]

Dan I love how you will stop in the middle of anything to talk to one of your pets. That is so sweet. I can tell how much you love them all. I'm the same way. Constantly talking to my cat Kip like he's another person. It makes life around us so much easier and enjoyable. I hope it makes you feel more peaceful to know you have all these people in here cheering you on. You just have to let the nay sayers go. They are clueless. Have a good week!

I got that dog from the pound during Covid when my mom was isolated in her house all alone, and brought her cinnamon for company. When Mom moved to a different location, Mark took the dog.

[@lafondat6352]

​@dsalnorcal1434 Dan, you really are sweet guy! That was really nice and thoughtful to do for your mom during covid. I hope she loved it too:)

[@chenyeeMei]

​@@dsalnorcal1434pls. Upload longer videos..i love y'all

[@sheryldelind2628]

It’s obvious why you’re (Dan) the one helping your dad the most. I had no help with my mom as nobody could handle having to repeat themselves constantly. I would, like Dan, repeat almost as if it was the first time she asked. He has so much patience and much needed humor! 😊

[@leelafredericks6968]

Dan I love the way you interact with your Dad, there’s so much patience and love. You are more gentle and tolerant towards him. Thank you for sharing your videos. There’s so much to learn . Pray Dad lives a healthy and happy long life

[@outfromtheshadows]

Dan seems more attentive and risk aware than his brother. Just an observation.

[@cristinabb9956]

He is also about 10 years younger 😊

[@weirderdolphin9902]

I mean yeah look at the state of mark he could use a caretaker too

[@joymorrison6614]

Dan seemed to be more of a ppl person. But I dont see anything wrong about Mark. Hes doing what has to be done. Keep in mind that Mark probably didn't plan this part of his life taking place in the way that it is. I think they will all be just fine.

[@mthompson8637]

Mark is an ASS

[@doiyakss]

Dan it seems like you are more patient taking care of your Dad. You are lucky to have been given that opportunity to take care of your father. Godbless

[@mishamccrea5303]

Just wanted to thank the both of you for caring for your dad. Your family is the best!! ❤❤❤❤

[@nicolew6614]

Yes, I’m glad you’re careful with him. Seniors fall and hurt themselves a lot. When I walk with my dad I worry about the cracks in the ground. He’s 80 and active . I still worry. Great job carrying for Gpa. ❤

[@katrinamackenzie8789]

Dan you have such a beautiful and kind way with your Dad,love your patience and care for him ❤❤❤

[@dawnsspiritualrhythms369]

I love how you keep your dad engaged in everyday life. I learning to be a better caregiver following your family's example. ♥️✨✨
