This made me realized why my parents or mostly elders love to take pictures when their loved ones gathered together or simply when the silliest moments occured, because they want to keep the memories and treasure it. Thank you for capturing this message in the most wonderful way. A well-deserved movie indeed.

This brought me to tears. I know we all had loved ones who passed away and it can hurt to sometimes remember that. My grandpa passed away far before his time. He was in a hospital for a quick surgery that shouldn't have caused any problems but he got infected with sepsis and didn't make it. I was a 13 year old depressed kid then and my mom didn't let me see him cause of the state he was in, however I did manage to see him once when he was being rushed into another surgery. I miss him so much, he was such a kind person. I'd visit him so often in my childhood, he and grandma practically raised me along side my parents. He was always a happy guy, before he went into the hospital my mom told him to hang in there and he grabbed a pole and said not to worry he's hanging on in an attempt to make us less worried. Till his last moments he was a positive soul. Nine years have passed since and I'm still touched by videos such as these. I miss him, a lot.

Grandparents are the worst in the sense that hypothetically and generally speaking, they’ll go before you do. And when you have the good ones it’s quite literally experiencing a person’s presence who had a lifetime to learn to love. Then boom. Gone. This is a cute film though. All the memories we will just have to hold on too, pretty but sad thing to think about.

[@friendnamedjane8686]

This is wonderfully put together. My grandfather has severe Alzheimer's, getting worse every day. He moved in with my parents a while ago, and has since forgotten nearly everyone and everything. It is so hard for everyone involved, and takes so much patience to deal with someone who's memory is gone. This is such a sweet film.

This wonderful animation reminded me immediately of my own father who came to live with me and my family when my mother passed away. He was suffering from early stage dementia and could not live own his own, no matter how much he wanted to. He was sad and depressed after losing his wife of 65 years, as we all were, but he gradually got used to the new experience of another family, along with all that goes with it, and started to enjoy all the attention from everyone, particularly all the grandchildren,and great grandchildren that visited him almost daily. We eventually had to put him into care, but his health was failing, and he passed away at the age of 92 years. Of course we all miss him, but the little boy in this animation reminds me so much of the desolation that the whole family felt at his passing. I am so glad that I watched this, and although it made me sad, it also made feel happy for that little boy, who found a way to remember his grandpa. Well done to all who were involved in the production of this beautiful little film.

[@priy7273]

My grandfather passed away due to major brain haemorrhage ....after the first attack(which went kindof unnoticed) his memory was either about the past or the future...he either forgot my dad and my mom and asked about where my grandmother was(who had passed a long time ago already) and why is their a strange lady(my mom) in his house or about the future where he would constantly say things like the guy I'm getting married to is not a good person or how was my work or how are my in-laws( I was 15 at that moment). He kept forgetting everyone or messing up the timelines frequently but there was one thing which stayed a constant ...me. He always remembered me and was always so worried about my marriage, my work, my relatives, my life. The day he had the second major attack he was all paralysed with only half of the face and eye balls functional and he was trying to whisper my name while they were taking him to the ambulance from our house gate. And I was sleeping. My parents thought it was a great idea to not wake me up because obviously he is gonna be at hospital in a few hours and be fine and come home. But I never got to see him. I can recall how i won't shut up and keep chatting with him all the time about his birthday, about my day, about school, about his life all the time when i was tiny...and then i grew up, i became COOL, and i had better people to talk to, and i forgot there is someone out there who loved me so much that even on his death bed his concern was my future and my life. I am 22 now... don't know why I'm writing this but if i get one more chance, i wont stop being that talkative little girl to him. That was the kindof unconditional love which i think i m never getting ever again in my life.

[@user-ov4vg1bl2g]

I grew up living with grandpa until I went to university at 18. I used to fight with grandpa over TV. I used to think he was too old to understand me or what I was doing. So I wouldn't explain much and felt bored to be with him. He also didn't talk much. But now I understand he knows what's going on. He cared about me through details in life, through food and common greetings. He always saved the best food for me until I went back home months later. When he was very sick and I was abroad, he asked mom every now and then when I would come back as if he just wanted to see me the last time. He died in a couple of month after I went back. I feel so lucky to have a grandpa like him. I miss him always and dream of him sometimes. I wish I could be better to him and spend more time with him. I don't even have many photos of him. Now I'm maturer and I have so much to say to him, I wonder how his life experience was, but have no chance any more.

I've never had the opportunity to experience what having a grandfather is, my grandfather (my father side) died ages ago when i wasn't born, but when i was 6-7 i still had my grandfather (my mother's side). I remember he was the sweetest person i had in my life, and always called me and my sister "gemelline" which is twins in italian but in a different way and he used to forget everything and always wanted to see me, my sister and my mother but sadly he wasn't feeling well and went to an hospital but the doctors weren't good and accidentally made a mistake with his operation that killed him. My grandma called my brother and told us that my grandpa was sleeping deeply, and that moment we all knew he was dying.

Being a teen, to think all these good days will just go one day brings thrills down my spine..

[@ashwinlakra3078]

It hurts to see that my grandfather is also suffering from Alzheimer's hope one day he will be fine

There is so much more depth and emotional power and heartfelt content in these wordless animated movies than in normal movies. Beautiful work. 😍

É magnífico, sou de Curitiba e vi pelo jornal hoje, é tão belo o estilo, e a história é muito simpatizante além do que ela nos faz rir e chorar e é isso que a torna tão boa! Parabéns pelo trabalho que foi muito, imagino, Deus os abençoe...que continuem com esse trabalho

This reminds me of my grandma who passed away from alzheimers many years ago. When the Mom brought the pictures to the boy for him to draw on, I lost it. Sobbing at 6:30am. 😭

You've done a good thing with this "short". It made me cry, but it was a happy but melancholy feeling. How many of you out there ha e fond memories of grandparents or even parents that you have lost? This short helps to re-live those precious moments in our minds. Thank you for making this, it made me cry happy fond tears

I am genuinely crying after watching this. I know my dearest grandmother is watching me and guiding me. I love her so much. I took so many of my life decisions based on random coincidence. I know she is guiding me. I know she is always with me. I will never forget the last smile she gave me. So much depth, so much innocence, so much love. I miss you Dadi so much ❤️❤️

Esse curta descreveu quase que em detalhes os últimos anos que vivi ao lado do meu avô... Hoje eu só tenho a agradecer pelas memórias e ensinamentos. Meu coração se encheu de amor e saudade com essa animação... Muito muito obrigada!

[@user-mw3hz6ko8q]

Isso me lembrou do meu avô, ele teve Alzheimer e morreu em 2019, meu velho se lembrava da juventude dele toda menos a velhice, mas sempre tinha uma história pra contar dessa época

15 years ago just like a normal day I went school... If I knew that I would never saw my grandfather's smile and can't play with him after that day, I swear I would stayed at home and be with him at the last moment 😔

[@Arshii0415]

Memories never fade. Stucked with my grandpa's thoughts. He is theirreplaceable person of my life today & forever. Missing him so much now after the film😢

É incrível como a arte consegue alcançar áreas do nosso cérebro que nem conheciamos. A arte é uma forma de expressão e sempre possue uma história 🤕

[@ophi.das.official]

Such a coincidence that my 94 years old grandma passed away day before yesterday and today KZbin recommended it. Hits hard.

[@renilsoribeiro3097]

My feelings for your loss. So youtube was a blessing.

[@LindaSChastain]

My Daddy died from Alzheimer's which he had for 20 years. I miss him but know we'll be together with our heavenly Father God one day. Thank-you for a sweet memory although it's difficult to see through my tears. I love you in Christ. Warmest hugs from northern California.

I lost my grandfather this year and while watching this it really reminded me of him ..it is a true masterpiece. We all are always very close with our grandparents and do not understand their value until we lose them 💔

This made me cry for real sadness when he died, but at the end i cryied of Joy

This short film is more to me just than a video, it's a medium to relive my life with my late grandfather.

[@brandonfazbear4219]

Seeing the grandfather pass away makes me think of my Papa, my Dad's father. My Papa was a man that we all loved. He was funny and loving. He was an outgoing man and a hard worker. He was supportive and made people smile when he was around. And if he and his good friend were playing a board game, they would argue but he says that they are just "discussing" but we all know he's just arguing so we make jokes about it. He snores very loud and has funny sneezes and can sneeze so loud normally that you can be outside and you can still hear him inside. He passed away when I was early in High School a around 4 to 6 years ago from showing me how to use the snow blower but slipped on the icy road when he went further out last the driveway and his head banged on the ice and the snowblower tipped over on him and I had to tip it back up and help him up. His apparently started to bleed and was forced to go into the hospital where we learned that he had brain damage from falling on the ice and was going through recovery for months and had to relearn how to eat, speak, and walk. At least he remembered us which was the best thing. He was making a good recovery until around the beginning of May when my family went to go see him but was gone and my Nana was rushing to a bigger Hospital where immediate care is. We knew something bad happened. The damage began to spread to the rest of his brain at an alarming rate and it was too much. It was time we had to let him go and pass on. It was for the best. We didn't want to have him go through any more pain and I hope that he is fine in Heaven now with no pain. I miss him still. Life isn't the same without him and we all miss him and things like what this video showed triggers these memories of mine and it gives many mixed emotions even after all these years. I'm scared when I lose other family members, friends, and loved ones like the church family from the church I used to go to before they moved away. I'm a person who is really attached to friends and family and can get really lonely when I'm not with them and it gives me stress thinking about when the time comes because I don't want to be alone..... I'm sorry for going this deep....

I can feel your pain 😭 my grandfather also passed away in the hospital because of a critical covid-19 attack.

Such a heart warming story. This reminds me of my grandpa who past away last year. He’s the one who takes care of me since I was little cuz my parents was always far away for work, he thought me everything from writing, reading, always saying thank you,be contented of what I have etc.. I miss my partner in crime when it comes to adventure and pranking our family members. I miss my grandpa.
