[@TheGalwayfan]

I'm sorry Bob but I believe the gluten free diet will not help your form of ataxia. It's way overhyped as a cure all for just about everything.. I'm very sorry about your health problems and believe it or not, it never occurred to me that you had been drinking. I never thought that of you! If you want prayers you've got them from me. 🙏🙏🙏 Please stop telling perfectly healthy people to go gluten free. It's unethical and unbecoming behavior. Gluten containing grains are good healthy food for the majority of the world. They provide much needed fiber and vitimins

As someone who has lived with Ataxia my entire life (due to Cerebral Palsy), I want to thank you for shining a light on this. It's not uncommon for people to assume I am drunk(including cops) and /or intellectually challenged. One thing people don't realize is that in addition to physical adjustments, anticipating things that could cause a fall is mentally exhausting as well. Be patient with yourself and keep sharing with us. Sending you all the love and good thoughts.

[@FrogsForBreakfast]

It makes so much sense. I can throw a ball to someone and it doesn't take much effort, but if I had to calculate all the trajectories and forces and physics behind hitting the target it would be mentally exhausting. The brain usually does all that subconsciously and it takes a huge part of the brain to do it. Throw a bug in the brain's programming so it doesn't do it well anymore and we have to do more of the exhausting calculations ourselves. Balance, speech, pretty much any muscle control needs calculations.

It's the cerebellum that tells you that you are falling and helps with coordinated movement along our motor pathways. Hope that made sense. I'm not a neurologist but as a speech path, I do have to have some understanding of how motor skills are affected by different parts of the brain.

Bob, I'm 73 and have CP. It affects my speech and coordination. My advice is to keep on doing what you're doing as long as you enjoy doing it. Of all the issues with CP for me the hardest to deal with was my speech impairment. I earned a MA in rehab counseling and during my career I served adults and children with developmental disabilities. Years ago one of my co-workers said something to me that really helped me put things into perspective. I don't remember how we got onto the subject but we were talking about my speech impairment. He told me that to him my speech impairment was no different than if a had a foreign accent. We then started laughing comparing it to the doctors from foreign countries we knew who had accents and that it didn't hold them back at all. Yes, people will make assumptions but it helped me to think of it that way. I hope it helps you too. Wishing you the best always.

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hello dear, how are you doing?

[@nancythomas-wardm.b.a2993]

Sending prayers to you all.....

[@shadowbeastie]

Their friendship is such a beautiful thing to see

[@paulm5025]

Bob, if you ever feel down about your health then please remember to think about the millions of people you have helped. This surely will make you feel a bit happier and give you some peace. And Brad - no doubt it is hard for you too re your friend and colleague.... keep being funny and helping each other guys. You two are incredibly special people in this world. 🙏🙏🙇🙇

[@lisac7752]

This brought tears to my eyes! You both have helped me so much and I often share your videos. I even sing your jingle 😉 I am a Christian and a strong believer in the power of prayer!! You will definitely be on my prayer list, Bob. May God guide you as you navigate these uncertain waters, He knows the way!!

[@michaelmcknight8419]

Thank You Lisa! Your response brought me to tears of gratitude. I’m Bob’s age and have my challenges.

[@bellasee1]

Lisa C ,your comment was lovely.

[@MrBakakeng]

When I had a motorcycle accident 2020 I saw your Chanel and you guys helped me and inspired me. God bless you Bob and Brad. Thank you.

[@sandyedwards2681]

I don’t know if you’re actually the most famous but you’re definitely my favorite online physical therapists. Thank you for all the information, compassion, and your sincere authenticity. You are helping me and you are also refreshing and inspiring.

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you 😊!

[@dianaclements8861]

Prayers, Bob. I've had 3 strokes, my vestibular system is a mess, so I can relate. Hang in there, do all the things, you'll be ok! 🙏🙏🙏

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you!

[@iamanovercomer3253]

@ Diana, I was struck with 2 strokes, where my left side WAS paralyzed and HAD slur speech. In the ambulance and in the emergency room, I kept calling out the name of JESUS CHRIST and I AM HEALED 💯% WITHOUT taking medicine ❗ THERE IS POWER IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST ‼️

[@SummaGirl1347]

Dearest Bob: I found you because I needed your guidance dealing with the special challenges of aging with CP. I also had severe tendonitis from long-term prednisone use. I cannot tell you how invaluable your videos have been in helping me keep as much function as possible, and in mitigating the pain that comes with my condition. It breaks my heart that you have been given this cross but, I know that you will put it to good use and help even more people through your example. You have helped so many, many people and now, it's time for us to give back to you with our prayers. May Our Lord bless you with the strength that you need to continue in your vocation as a therapist, and the peace that comes from knowing that, no matter what happens, you are greatly admired and esteemed by all those whom you have helped through your channel.

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you

[@jeanier7185]

@2DirtyDogs Very Well said!

[@ocinco5]

Thank you for years of help. I’m a praying man and I know you will be victorious over this challenge in the name of Jesus. Prayers for us all including the viewers!

[@noonespecial4171]

awww Bob and your daughter being a speech pathologist! Bob being here as he is, no pretending, fully human - that's everything, thank you!

[@kelmac1618]

Bob I hope that anytime you feel overwhelmed by the situation, you come here to read how loved and appreciated you are. Brad too! Thank you for the years of ongoing support you’ve given to the world! Love, resilience, and wellness wished upon you and your loved ones, along with those who’ve looked to you for help. ❤

[@cesarcruz96]

Praying for you Bob and others. My son has a rare seizure disorder caused by a fever mutation and that's made him allergic to light, temperature, patterns etc so if anyone is able to pray for my little guy i would greatly appreciate it.

[@catbriggs8362]

Praying for your son! 🙏

[@ellenpeckham572]

I pray that God will heal your son, but above all he will know that God is WITH HIM. God will be your son’s strength when he is weak. God promises He will never leave us nor forsake us regardless what we go through. I know it because I live it. God has never left me nor let me down in my weakest point. May God’s peace rest upon your son & your family.

[@barbarawild2478]

Will do!💝

[@danadavis6097]

You bet I'll pray for your son! I've known Jesus as my Lord and Savior for many years and I know God heals!!! And I've recently found that asking daily for the Holy Spirit to help me in everything I do really does help! Jesus told us he was leaving us a helper, the Holy Spirit. It's amazing!! Iny simple everyday house work routines he helps me. Making decisions. Try it. Ask the Holy Spirit to help your son every with every part of his life and see the difference! I hope I don't sound like a religious fanatic to you. I'm just a person who loves God and loves other people. And I know in my heart God doesn't want your son to be sick. He wants him to be healthy and whole! So believe the Lord for his healing and hold fast to that! God loves you..I love you..and Gods blessings on your lives!!! 🙏❤️🤗

[@uofamom]

Our 2 yr old grandson has the same seizure disorder affecting all that you mentioned. What has his doctor called the diagnosis? We live in another state so we dont have all the info but we worry and pray for him. Thank you for any info you have. Of course we will pray for your son.

[@Chiclette-ld1xx]

Just learnt about Bob today june 6, 2023! You guys are my go to back doctors. Sending ❤ & prayers to Bob and family and to Brad too to be strong and continue life's journey.

[@artheaded1]

Bob - Its wonderful to have you back, Brad was looking lonely without you! I"m glad to see your sense of humor hasn't been affected. Sending love and positive vibes to you and everyone you help with this channel!

[@HorseLuvr101]

Hang in there, Bob! My mother also had an ataxia (Machado Joseph disease,which primarily impacts people of Portuguese ancestry). The National Ataxia Foundation has conferences and support groups and I learned a lot there about devices that can be used to make life easier (phones with large buttons, pens that are easier to grip, etc). My mom was often mistaken as being drunk, which was embarrassing for her. We kids also got ‘the stink eye’ from people in restaurants for not helping our mother more with her utensils, but she did not want our help because she felt it would speed her ataxia along. I hope people reading this will remember to not be judgemental when they see things they don’t understand. My mother (and we kids) had some real mental adapting to do in the early years, so be aware that there may be a transition for you and your family, too. Mom lived a full life and felt her ataxia was just ‘one of those things’ we all get to deal with and did not let it define her life. Sending love and prayers to you from California

[@vickyCA1643]

Beautifully written, thank you for sharing.

[@indy4fly]

I hope many people will read your message and learn from it. Thank you for sharing your life experience and in a way, offering hope to anyone suffering from the disease.

[@ericcajo]

Great story and well said.

[@Daringtobemyself]

Keep going Bob. You're the man! With Brad's and your daughter's help, you'll be feeling better in no time. I have multiple sclerosis so, at times, my speech will slur and I have balance issues. Many people joke that I must be drunk. I understand that they don't mean to be nasty and they don't know what I'm going through so I just let what they say roll off like water on a duck's back. It's much easier emotionally to give people the benefit of the doubt. I'm praying for you and all your viewers who are having health issues. You and Brad help so many people! Keep up the good work! 😉

[@brendanadon1028]

May our MS heal, may we be healthy, happy and free to give

[@pamr.8541]

I just learned about you two from someone who loves you and your channel. Now, I do too! Thank you for helping so many people with your expertise, sincerely, and kindness. I am sending prayers to you for healing, Bob. And, I am sending prayers to everyone who needs help and healing. The request to pray for others was so kind, it brought tears to my eyes. 🥹💕🙏🏻 You are blessed, Bob & Brad, because you are a blessing to others. Thank you so much. ❤️

[@stephencavicchio4521]

My prayers and best wishes go out to Bob, his loved ones, and everyone else living with Ataxia!

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you!

[@MillionaireHoyOriginal]

Wishing you and your family the absolute best as you work to manage your diagnosis with ataxia ❤️❤️❤️

[@della6021]

I love you both! Mr Bob is doing a wonderful job he has plenty of support he can do it he will overcome this! Foods that are nourishing to the gut and brain will help. Yes allergy testing is very important you can get tested for food allergies not just gluten there are many out there. But this brings the inflammation down. Thank you guys for all your hard work and encouraging others they can do it too! Praying for you Mr Bob! ❤️🙏 The Lord bless you more!

[@storna08]

Dear Bob: You've been there for all of us, and now we're here for you. Stay strong and trust that you'll be able to continue to offer the videos with Bob to those of us who live far and cannot see you in person. Prayers for you and for those so suffer health issues that affect their enjoyment of life.

[@louisecox4292]

Sending positive vibes to Bob, your determination will keep you going. Thank you for your videos and help over the years. All the best to everyone out there who are seeking help too.

[@BobandBrad]

I appreciate that

[@nancymcnafferson3192]

What a blessing that you were aware and treated patients with ataxia, and that your daughter can help you! Will be praying ♥️

[@susanseffens9975]

Prayer and positive thoughts to you Bob. I’m so glad you’re not giving up. We need you.

[@zita-lein]

Prayers going up for you and everyone struggling in any way. Really appreciate you letting us come with you on this challenging journey. God speed!

[@austinhowland300gmail.]

Hello Zita. 👋 how are you doing

[@austinhowland300gmail.]

Where are you from

[@maribelmeza4494]

Prayers for you, Bob! Thank you for starting such a great channel. It goes to show what a big heart you’ve always had for us, “the people” and once again you’ve proven yourself by asking for prayers for those hurting worse than you. Brad has been there through all of it and has remained a great friend. It is not surprising that y’all have almost 5 million subscribers. All the best to you both and I hope you are able to stick around for 5 million more. Blessings to you both!

[@dkattkatt7633]

Bob, we adore you! How perfect that your daughter can help you with speech therapy. You are certainly in the right place to help yourself and all of us who watch. My husband faces the challenges of Parkinsons Disease. Your vulnerabilities with Ataxia make you even more effective. May you stay strong in this, sending love, light and healing💫🌟

[@cockeyedoptimista]

Very nice, thoughtful comment. Great point about increased empathy via this vulnerability.

[@lynnelliott9038]

Oooh Bob, how I'm going to the throne of God for you and with you and everyone who loves you! AND I will pray for every follower who is suffering with something. You and Brad helped me TWICE when doctors weren't really paying attention to my pain. God be with you, heal you and restore you to full recovery! And never stop recording for us, we'll ALWAYS be here for you, delayed speech and all ❤️

[@boitumelo.speaks]

love this. I too will go to the throne of Grace

[@totalclutter]

I just found y’all this week when I searched for balance exercises for my mom. So much helpful information, delivered in a beautiful way. Thank you. Sending up a prayer.

[@BobandBrad]

Our pleasure!

[@johnnyyukon7887]

The both of you have helped me in my journey. A few years ago I was very lucky to survive a very large brain aneursym (two brain surgeries), and just a few months ago I had a stroke. Watching you has helped me physically and mentally with your sense of humour and great outlook on life. My advice to you Bob, keep a positive outlook. It took me seven years to learn to read again. Never give up!

[@rmuller366]

An inspiring commentary on persistence! God’s blessings to you.

[@lilianwal2385]

Wow! You are one inspiring dude x

[@suesreviews782]

Bob, you deserve our support: you have been supporting us viewers and our afflictions for years! I have benefited from your videos so very many times. I will pray for you - that you grow stronger and better and that a cure or a remedy can be found to help you. We love you right back, Bob!!! All this positive energy that you have sent out over the years is coming right back at you!!!

[@MsMarmolade]

Man, I couldn’t have said it better! I agree 100% we love you Bob! ❤

[@jancampbell883]

Bob, you’re in my prayers, as well as your patients. I get the biggest kick out of you two!!! I love you both. You’ve got this!!!

I'm sorry about what is going on with you, Bob. If you took the jab, many auto-immune diseases and neurological problems have happened as a result. I am praying for you. God Bless.

Prayers for you Bob and all who are suffering from all types of ailments 🙏🏾

[@yiarkungfu]

Bob we’re 1,000,000% behind you. You’ve been such a bright spot during this ridiculous time and have helped me with injuries and pain for the last 6 years. My life would literally be a living hell without you. You’re the best.❤️

[@catrobbins1316]

Definitely sending prayers. Stay strong. This, too, is helping people!

[@leslieschmidt9765]

I appreciate the information you two give, but even more, I appreciate your kindness and your inclusiveness and the way you treat everyone with respect. I wish you the best, Bob, and Brad. I wish you both many wonderful years and lots of fun, informative videos.

[@aaronkaplan6441]

I love this! I love the candor and gravity of the release of information and can do attitude despite the obvious challenge. We ALL just wish you Bob to manage this challenge as best you can. You both are amazing and the amount of value you both have provided and over the years to help those suffering from physical ailments including myself Is INCALCULABLE. Your legacy will always be preserved and we will continue to enjoy many many years and funny informative videos going forward. Wishing you the very best Bob.

[@mattjhughes]

I rarely comment on videos, but so appreciate everything you both do with your wide range of videos. Thank you for sharing your struggles so your community of supporters can rally around you. We are cheering for you!

[@Cynster777]

Love you Bob. So sorry you are going through this. Will you still be on the videos? God bless you so much.🙏🏻♥️

Bob and Brad ... You guys are one of the best things that happened to the internet. We are praying for you Bob, and we will be here for you both forever.
