Dad was overwhelmed, scared, tired and confused. When he gets like this I try to calmly talk him back from from the fear and ease his mind. Here is my effort.
@max05275 I'm not being rude but we see 30 second clips and sometimes a few minutes. I was my parents caregiver and I enjoy watching the videos but the only show a fraction of time. Don't forget Dan is human too, Danielle too.
I made a 3 ring binder picture book, with head shots of all my dads kids, with our names on them. It was a great tool for my dad, and expanded to pictures of flowers, animals etc.
We did the same thing for our mom we started out with her everyday things she saw then older memories, friends pets places and she looked at it alot but still ask the same questions..
Ed is such a wonderful father. He is still worrying about all of his children. He is also so grateful for the help he is receiving. What a wonderful human.
The fact that you openly owned that by making these videos, it allows you the financial ability to stay home and take care of your dad speaks measures of your integrity. So many people I see in the comments cutting you guys down for "exploiting" Dr. Ed when in all reality, you are teaching so many about caregiving as well as opening up the window to maintain the financial ability to pay your bills without needing your dad's money or leaving it all to your wife. Many women and men can learn from you. Great character Dan!
I moved in with my grandparents at 14 years old both had Alzheimer’s I did everything for them along with attending my education and exams…it’s Hard but worth every second I had with them. They were my world xxxx
@@lilylovesitaly3932 Thank you my grandmother always said I had a very caring nature. To be honest I think you have to step up and grow up extremely fast when you have been dealt this hand. It was hard and I did have my mother to support me but she had my younger siblings at home to care for. It was a honour to care for for my grandparents xxx
Dan I’m the guy from Connecticut that was taking care of my 91 year old Dad. Unfortunately my father passed away 10-20. He was so much like your dad too. Please enjoy every moment and keep on doing what you’re doing ❤️ And know your videos helped me tremendously
I have worked in dementia units for over 20 years, I loved it as they are mostly child like and very funny at times. But I got to go home, Dan you and Danielle and Mark are amazing. It is sadly the worst disease. Your patience with Ed is inspiring.
55 years old 3 kids thru college and 1 in grad school and "semi" retired. Dan you must of been one hell of a lawyer to make , and save enough money to be fine at 55. Amazing.
It’s rather rude to count another persons money. Taking care of an elderly parent with dementia is a huge undertaking but a true blessing when you can. And I agree Dan must be one hell of a lawyer!
@tarakane5477 I didn't count his money only made a comment with information that I've heard from Dan or Danielle themselves. I find nothing rude about that. Shoot tbh if I was I don't think counting a public person's money a problem too
@tarakane5477 As far as being a caregiver. I cared for my father the last 13 months of his life. He couldn't even shower I had to. Then, my mom was diagnosed with alzeheimers with dementia and spent the next 11 years caring for her. I did hire a cna for 6 hours a day 3 days a week. I know what caregivers are and the amount of energy required to do it well.
Falling was one of my Mama's biggest fears for my Daddy who had Alzheimer's. Once she came home from work on her lunch hour and caught Daddy up on the roof of the house working on some loose shingles and unclogging the gutters. Daddy was 78 and feeble and wobbly on his feet. He only weighed probably 110 or so because he wouldn't eat right & his poor diet made him weak most of the time so Mama got extremely scared about Daddy falling off the roof. After that, I started staying with him during the days while Mama was at work. It wasn't uncommon for me to have to go outside and get him to shut off & put up the weed eater or the chainsaw because he was wanting to cut some weeds or firewood. Bless him, he just wanted to do the things that he always used to do.
I miss my dad. He had very similar problems and the entire process was heartbreaking. But, I still want to talk with him (all the time), even though he's been gone 7 years. You can tell your dad he is helping lots of people (not just you), tuning into your conversations is so comforting. For just a moment my dad is back. Thank you.
Yes , watching this reminds me of the 2 years we rotated living in my dear father in laws home. He refused to move in with or even to visit with us with out his wife ,then she passed away and he didn’t like the caregivers. In a last resort we rotated staying with him in his house. In the end it was only two couples and a house keeper/ helper but he was able to pass in his own home. He kept asking how long it was until his birthday, he had a big 93rd birthday and passed away shortly after that.
What a blessing your family is. Thank you for reminding him that he 'helps you every day'. I think it's important for Granpa Ed to feel he's contributing. Love from Vietnam to both you.
I thought that was a great way to let him know he was still useful. Grandpa worries about being a burden a lot and your mentioning that he contributes to the family is wonderful.
I love how he never forgets his father responsibilities. Care about his kids and making sure Dan cleans up his stuff on the floor Lol He is an amazing person!
Ed does not seam to forget he has children,he is just not sure how many and which ones are which ,Dan is so comforting reassuring him that everything is fine.
Dan, I love to watch your Dad's videos! My Dad had dementia (memory loss) too and passed years ago in his 80's. The first time I watched I cried the whole video because it reminded me so much of the last years of Daddy's life. He forgot my brothers and would ask "How do I know you?" all the time. But the most wonderful thing for me was that he never forgot me, his daughter.....my brothers (4) say it is because I reminded him of my mother who passed before him. Dad remembered many things from long ago as a child and when he was in the Army, 24 yrs.....always worried he was going to be AWOL (HA!). I think what you are doing is truly a wonderful thing it helps many that live with these circumstances....God Bless you and your family!!
As long as his kid's are all doing well, that's all he cares about. Hope Grandpa feels better soon. Dan your a wonderful son. Always, tirelessly giving constant Reaaurance and with much patience. God Bless. 🙏❤
Dan , you are advancing the common person's understanding of home geriatric care immeasurably. People who are in a similar situation no doubt take great comfort in the wonderful example you are setting.
I don't think Mark has any patience in Dad. I do believe Dan is his favorite without him saying so you can tell by his smile and how his eyes lite up when they are doing the switch. Mark always looks like he's guilty of something. Yes I know Dan can see this Hi Dan 👋 Your doing Great. While I have your attention. Don't take Dad for walks outside anymore y'all exercise in the house.
Dr. Ed reminds me of my father so much! Sweet, kind, gentle and considerate. I was a caregiver for my father for 3 years until he passed on October 11th, 2003. That was the hardest job I ever did in my life but I would do it all again in a heartbeat just to be with him again. 💗 God bless you both, Dan. ❤🙏🏾
Totally agree. Very hard job same questions over and over again. Reassuring them. My dad once I took him in the bank and he saw his account and told the lady I was stealing his money, she laughed and said no that’s not true but I was so embarrassed and red faced. I got the bank to send him bank statements per month after that and we would compare them from the past month . We even took a few into the bank to show him his money was still there. It’s when the older folk gets aggressive and lashes out that I found very hard with my dad. He only did it a few times but it was so unexpected and heartbreaking for me. But he died jan 18 2003 and I still miss the great wonderful dad he was and our great talks over the years how much he cared for me and my girls. Love you dad ❤and miss you so much. Can’t wait to see you one day
Dan, you definitely are the son that every parent would love to have. It might be and stressful situation for you and Danielle but you guys handle it very well. Thank you for allowing us to watch those moments with Dr. Salinger.❤
Watching this video, I was moved to tears... 😪😪😪 Felt it through my heart. This was pure raw love Love and Blessings to Danielle, Dan and Dr Ed and the family🩵🩵🩵🩵 Thanks for sharing. Through your videos you are showing us all, the way. It's humbling to know that together, we are all learning ! And the common denominator is: Love
I wonder if Ed recalls old movies or television shows that he enjoyed watching when he was younger, or favorite music, or his favorite sports team. Keep taking good care, Ed, we love seeing how things are going for you and the family.
Listen whenever God calls Grandpa home, his kids and grand kids will have one heck of an Angel. ❤ Grandpa will forever love and take care of his family. Love you Grandpa 💙
I Luv Papi and How he is ALWAYS Luving and Caring For ALL Of You! Y’all are Very Caring, Patient, Giving, and Luving To him Too! Your INSPIRING The🌎 With ALL Your Video’s, and We Appreciate You Sharing SO Much With ALL Of Us! Blessings & Luv Beautiful Family🙏🏻❤️ (Praying You and Papi feel Better after that Fall, They Sometimes Happen- We don’t want Them Too, but Sometimes They Do🙏🏻)
Good afternoon, Dan and Grandpa Ed and all the Salingers: it’s always so great and so sweet how much Ed worries about all his kids and always wants to know that they’re doing well, etc. but it is still sad that he always has to be reminded who they are and what he’s doing and where he is, but sometimes he is sharper than a tack which is also nice; continued prayers for the two of you from that terrible fall ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh my goodness... Grandpa needs to be Careful 😯🙏😯 I Love and Appreciate All of You Guys! My Mother has Dementia also, But I don't think she's gotten to this point But she's not far behind. ❤😊❤😊❤
Dan, just a suggestion, show him pictures, photos of your brothers and sister when you were younger. I respect you and Daniell a lot for what you’re doing with Ed. He’s a blessing to be in your life. God bless you all.
This is so hard to do every day. You are wonderful down to earth people. I wish we had so many more like you that were there to care for elderly, especially with dementia and Alzheimer’s Parkinson. Ma had to go to a home this week!😢😢😢. I have had so many back surgeries I just can no longer do it. The funds are not there anymore. No just look up to you and your family for all you do.TY❤❤❤❤
You're so sweet and really explain things to your father. My mother passed away in 2017, just after she turned 67 y/o, but she had alzheimers that had progressed really fast in a short time. It was so heartbreaking the further it got, in the end she did really become like a shell of her former self. I miss her so much it hurts sometimes, in a way you can say I missed here before she passed even, if that makes any sense. Even if she was here still physically, she wasn't at all the same person as before understandebly. Take care of yourselfs! Love from Sweden ❤
Dan and Danielle have no problem getting anyone straight on their comments. From the videos to how they take care of their daddy. I love it. Mr. Ed seems like he’s down for anything his kids want to do. He didn’t question Dan about the videos at all. In fact said he loves helping them. His actions show that. Great family!❤
I love that dad is such a nice man. Some people with dementia are not only confused but can be mean at times which is no fault of their own. Sometimes it’s just part of the disease.
I read this from a Doctor for dementia and Alzheimer’s patients. Coconut oil every 3 hours for five days, intramuscular B-12. Injections, have the patient move bowels as much as possible. He said that this will definitely make a difference. Prayers!🙏🏼🥰
I just adore your sweet Dad & your videos! So sorry for the fall. U r doing amazing taking care of your Dad. I was my Mother's caretaker until she fell & broke her hip in her kitchen. She had hip replacement surgery & never walked again & passed away 8 months later at 78. I Miss her terribly. Falls r so dangerous to elderly. Please be careful so another fall doesn't happen. Prayers Love & hugs🙏🙏🙏🙏💕❤️😍
Falls are so scary! Everything can change in an instant. You and Danielle both do a wonderful job caring for your Dad. God bless you and your absolute treasure of a Dad. ❤
I love Mr. Ed so much, he reminds me of my dad. Although my dad passed away last year, you and your dad are helping me to understand what I was going through with my dad, the repeat questions, asking about his money all the time, his car and his house and getting upset when he realized he was losing his independent. In my dad’s last days he moved in with me by then he had humbled himself and just took life for what it was. Your videos brings joy to my soul by giving me refresher courses of my dad❤❤
I love how reassuring you are to Ed. You have so much patience with him.
❤️💙❤️

Shutterfly books are also a beautiful way to share family pictures for recall and reflection!
This would be very helpful and should save both of you a great deal of frustration.
Ed is such a wonderful father. He is still worrying about all of his children. He is also so grateful for the help he is receiving. What a wonderful human.

Bless him , breaks my heart a little when he asks who his kids are . Your doing a great job Dan . ❤🙏
Me too absolutely. My heart just melts. Bless him 🙏 ❤️ 💙 ♥️
I wish I had your channel to watch when I was caring for my mom. It is priceless
He has the heart of a father. He hopes he is close to all of his children and wants them to be well.

Great son taking care of his dad. May God bless you. ❤❤❤❤
Dan, I love how you say "we fell." We all know you only fell to try to catch Grandpa, but saying "we" makes is like a team. I find that endearing.
I had a sense of security come over me listening to him tell his father is safe. How fortunate that man is to have a family take care of him.

I just adore your sweet Dad & your videos! So sorry for the fall. U r doing amazing taking care of your Dad. I was my Mother's caretaker until she fell & broke her hip in her kitchen. She had hip replacement surgery & never walked again & passed away 8 months later at 78. I Miss her terribly. Falls r so dangerous to elderly. Please be careful so another fall doesn't happen. Prayers Love & hugs🙏🙏🙏🙏💕❤️😍
Falls are so scary! Everything can change in an instant. You and Danielle both do a wonderful job caring for your Dad.
God bless you and your absolute treasure of a Dad. ❤
"If that's TRUE", always makes me smile😊
Have a blessed weekend family!😇
God bless you Dr. Ed❤❤❤
I love Mr. Ed so much, he reminds me of my dad. Although my dad passed away last year, you and your dad are helping me to understand what I was going through with my dad, the repeat questions, asking about his money all the time, his car and his house and getting upset when he realized he was losing his independent. In my dad’s last days he moved in with me by then he had humbled himself and just took life for what it was. Your videos brings joy to my soul by giving me refresher courses of my dad❤❤
So sweet . What an amazing son you are .
Why not get one of those collapsible camp chairs for Ed to sit on in your room? Sitting on the bed or a trunk is tiring on the back.
It’s videos like these that shows the genuine personalities of Ed & Dan.
