Explaining MOHS Surgery to Dad.

Dad did much better during our absence because Mark came to stay here with him so the change wouldn’t be so dramatic. Andrew and Mark teamed up to take care of him and it definitely showed. Family support is so important. And the end is nothing short of heartwarming.

Wow, grandpa is in tip top shape today! Warms my heart to hear him remembering so many in his family.

[@HeartOfHippie]

That’s not grandpa that’s his father.

[@joydavis9264]

​@@HeartOfHippie lol. I think they know that. A lot of people on here call him grandpa bcuz he is grandpa to the kids. But they know that's Dan's dad.

The kindness is a lesson to all of us. Daniel is a gift from God.

Ugh

[@sarahjane8949]

Dan certainly is 💯🙏🏻❤️

[@lindadavy6641]

@HeartOfHippie They are deaf, dumb, blind if they think Dan is a good guy! He is NOT. He is a covert narcissist who is hiding his real self. He is totally jealous of Danielle's success. And he does use his own dad as "ego supply". With mask on, he knows how to be deceptive. Master manipulator. Childish, scared 😱

[@DMacy7]

Dan: I’ve been at the office all day. Grandpa: You’ve been busy too! Dan: What have you been doing? Grandpa: Eating 😂 I love you guys

I am so happy, Dr. Ed is having a good day. I lost my dad in 2001 and my mom to dementia on May 9, 2019. I wish I had taken more pictures and videos to hear her voice. Dan, thank you for sharing your father and family with us!Parents are a blessing! Cherish them no matter what because when they are gone, they are gone. God bless everyone!😊

Wow! One of best reels showing how loving care in a family setting can optimize a loved one’s mental health even with dementia! Dr Ed said pretty good instead of normal which brought the first smile and there were many more smiles coming in this wonderful conversation!!!! Grandpa was spot on and gracious as could be!

Dan, enjoy every minute you have with Ed. The hospital had a Palliative care doctor call me and if my dad doesn't improve in 3 days, we have to switch to hospice. It is his intestines not working and now he won't eat. His stomach is distended due to what is happening. He still knows who I am and for that I am grateful. I am just not ready for this. Hold your loved ones clost.

It's good he has a grandchild to help with him. I bet he kept asking where you were. I had no one to help me with my mom. Until I decided it was time to quit work and stay with mom 24/7 I did have good neighbors that would check on her while I was at work. Family wasn't willing to do anything. Which it was cousins. I have no brothers and sisters. I sure appreciated my neighbors.
