- The decision to opt for home caregiving for a loved one with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia can take a toll on the caregiver. While each situation may be unique, patience, compassion, and a community can make the journey worthwhile.
Produced by Amin Muhammed and Cecil Egbele, Homebound takes us on a ride into the lives of the Salingers.
you guys magically captured the essence of our Journey.....thanks for such a beautiful piece
Thanks for opening your home to Amin and I. We wouldn't have achieved this much with you, Danielle, and of course, Dr Ed.
In Hawaii, we expect that we will care for our elderly parents, blood related aunties and/or uncles and special need siblings. It is our culture, part of what makes Hawai special and sets us apart from the rest of our country.
God bless all of you. Special blessings to Ed. Very beautiful family. Continue the love ❤️ that’s what all that matters. Amen 🙏
I think you guys are awesome. Very loving to that lovely man. Pop is hilarious at times.
Thank you for setting this example to the world.
We all love your family.
What a son...it just brings me to tears. You guys did it! It's so hard...I failed my mom. I just could not do it all. I will always regret not trying harder. Did the best I could for awhile. Then I watch you and Danielle. You have my utmost respect.
Not everybody can do this. Not everyone set up financially or with aid to do something like this. Please don’t have regrets you did the best you could do.
Your helping so many
really beautiful how hard this family tries to make it nice for their dad. I'm really touched & impressed. The Dad seems like he must have been a very kind man.
Danielle your doing a fantastic job with Grandpa.You and Dan are AWESOME. The Best.❤😊
You are both doing a fabulous job with Ed. You care enough to keep him with you until you can't. He would already be gone if he was in a facility. I have seen that kind of decline. God bless you all!
Your family is so exceptional! I commend you for your patience and care!
Wish my mom did this good we stayed in denial then had to accept my moms biggest fears were nursing home and dementia. She got to stay home had a live in caretaker after a couple years. Worst she forgot us never my dad she passed at 92 day before she past she said goodbye sweetie so she knew me for a minute. I love how you all pitch in and he’s really blessed to have all of you and he never forgets Danielle I’m always amazed he sure loves you❤
Thank you for explaining this for people
Hey Danielle and Dan and Ed hope yall have a great day today love ❤️ yall
God bless ya'll for taking care of Granpa.You are both wonderful and loving even through this very difficult trial. God will use this to help others,for His glory. Love hugs ,prayers. CeCe ❤❤❤🙏
Good stuff! So much more than you had time for as Dan and Danielle have shown yes it is possible to help a family member through their journey. Good job producing this piece
Not everyone can do what your doing.So glad Ed has such a great life
Every household is different, every person is different. You have to find what works for you. That doesn't mean you can't try new things but it does mean you don't have to listen to criticism from someone that isn't living in your household. My journey caring for my mother was very different than yours. You are doing the best you can in a very hard situation and you are doing a great job.
one hundred percent....each person is different...each day, month and year are different....it takes adjustment and modification on an ongoing basis....you do the best you can ...im so sorry for your loss...
It would be nice to take him somewhere far, far secluded...and let him drive.
People don't realize how hard it is to be a caregiver. If you post what you are doing it is always open to criticism
by people that don't understand.
Thank you for shedding light on the caregiver and for showcasing this amazing family. I also was the caregiver for my Dad who passed away from Lewy Body Dementia. It was the hardest job I ever had to do but it was also rewarding because we were able to keep him out of a hospital during his final weeks. ❤
Just an amazing family, God bless you all.👍🇬🇧
The more time you spend with someone with dementia, the harder it is..if you make brief visits, it's ok but live with them..whole different story. You guys have a LOT of patience!
Cecil, Grandpa totally was crushing on you in Dan’s video of him tying your shoe. So sweet! I love this short documentary. They are an amazing family. 🫶
yes he was...every day she was there ... it was the cutest thing
It is the hardest act of love and care I have ever done.
Bless you Family.

It really takes the whole family to help out. Not everyone has that support.You will cherish these videos. Miss my Pop every day,he was sweet like Ed ❤
The students did an excellent job with the video...real life diplayed!
Hardest thing I ever did for 12 years. It was solely on me. Three times I took my mom to stay with my sister. It was a brief reprieve. The repeating is a killer...it is so stressful you wouldnt believe it. I never lost my patience
You both are such wonderful people your love shows. Danielle you are such a beautiful wife a kind wonderful loving person. Dan we are dealing with a similar situation and thanks for sharing. What a good man you are to help your dad and not send him into a home.You dad is soo sweet love him.
Absolutely heartwarming!!! Brought me to tears! America’s favorite family! Love you all to the moon!💜💜💜XoXo
Love and prayers for you all. You do great with him. I remember the first few times my mom didn't recognize me. It hurt me really bad. It's a terrible feeling I think.
My husband was so good to my mother just like Danielle is to your Dad. Sometimes, its a thankless task.
I think these videos will be a blessing for you when he's no longer here. I wish I could be doing this for my mom, she is a very different person than your dad so memory care is best for her. Most people don't realise its not just a loss of memories. Your whole life gets turned upside down when this happens. I can't count how often I was told be the bigger man and I just can't anymore. Good to see you can,God bless!
This was good. You guys should make a documentary on "Ed" aka Dr. Salinger and dementia. Danielle's video this morning and this video is a great foundation to start. It's time.
Y'all do great with him keep being normal
Prayers for you Danielle and Dan as you take care of Ed.
Definitely need respite care. I tried to put myself in my mom's place raising us and all the ignorant stuff we pulled that she had to endure. It's a hard job.
Power to you.
It's wonderful to be present with your father with your family.There is nothing more precious in the world.Yes there are the good and bad days that rip you to the bone but the outcome is seeing and holding onto a father that you love.As carers understand the ins and outs of every part of the person they care for.Its mind blowing to say the least but when small moments of responsive joy come it's a fantastic feeling and makes one realize how fortunate we all are to live the present day.God bless you all and thank you all for sharing family life to all people's in the persistence to live life for the good.🤗💛🍀
Amazing! Respect for the love, patience and kindness shown by this family to their dad.
❤see pops getting really bad now.❤
Bless you all, I understand this is tough❤
I wonder if its wrong to ask Pop to tell us about his childhood and why he became a doctor. He has a lot to teach us.
Danielle, I know it's f***ing hard but you will be very happy you did it....trust me.
Диван и син и отац!
You guys rocked it! I love the Salinger’s journey and showing the world what humility is. ❤
Beautiful film. Thank you so much for all that you do. Faithful fan
I loved that video ..one of the best
@Dan: It takes having a woman like DANIELLE, who not only loves her man, put also embraced Dan's parents & siblings as "kin". Few wives would never consider what Danielle is doing. DANIELLE, you have raised the bar for other women to emulate! If only the women realized how much MORE their men will love them, when they see their wives do such a selfless act as loving their parent! 💞
I totally agree, Danielle is doing more than many others ever would, including those who get pleasure out of insulting her.I hope Dan appreciates what she is doing, he doesn't always seem to,Ed always seems to remember her.
They don’t have him every day Mark has him half the time
Ed strays with Dan and Danielle full time now.
you guys are doing great. your doing a fantastic job 👏 xx
Thank you for sharing I hear ya not that my mother is anywhere near your dads stage yet but it is very hard and I thank you again ❤
God bless you guys. I took care of my mom as long as I could but the system isn’t set up for a single person to be able to afford it
I had to take a double take at Dan & Danielle’s wedding photo. Dan & Ed look exactly alike at that age! 🫶
Poor soul 💔x
Dan is a wonderful son❤never complains. Love to grampa ❤
I just love Grandpa Ed❤️
Thank yoi cecil nice video ❤
Nice job❤
Did the Salinger Family give Cecil Egbele permission to repost their content? Lets find out.
Yes!!! This is part of a documentary that was done by the Cecile on the Salinger Family with Dan, Danielle, and Ed. If you look up Dan's Channel there in their home video's from when she was there.
absolutely....they had permission for everything....
Salinger Family ❤❤❤
Good job
What type of dementia does your dad have?
Where's his glasses?
Sorry l see now that it wasn't stealing.
Why r u posting other peoples content?
Put the camera away. It will help.
Why you cussing at him
Age doesn’t define the relationship with your children of how you speak or converse with them. That panic was a son concerned about his father trying to operate a vehicle at his age.
@@Ginseng14 There are many seniors in their 90s that still drive and safely. The difference is that Ed has dementia. Not all 90 yr olds have dementia.
@@trixiegirlism
Omg… you are from TT, huh? 🤣
Lady, you are like one month late. ⏰
Dan has explained that video(car) was at the start of this journey when he himself had no real idea what he had taken on or how to deal with it.
Why don't you shave Ed's head he looks better with buzz cut..
Guys you can’t do any better than you are doing. 🇦🇺🦘 Love and best wishes from Aus
