      She's worked all her life and knows not much more then to take care of people as if they were her family, it's generosity of spirit that much more of the world needs to follow.

    This video is so sad. Very typical south vietnamese. She is so considerate that, she doesnt want to burden you with her sadness. Saying good bye with a smile and holding in her tears. Grandma is quite poor, brcause she has never ridden in a car before, doesnt have glasses her for degrading eyes but she would give you all the food that she has, even when shes not making much from the shop. That's vietnamese hospitality.

    I got teary eyes when grandma said she cried so much because everyone of her family left her😢. God bless you, Chris, for being kind and gentle to grandma. Grandma loves and treats you like family because your kindness and warmth resonates with her. Grandma is a very strong and brave woman and you're simply amazing with your excellent command of spoken Vietnamese. I'm sad that you're leaving Vietnam for good but still hope that you'll visit grandma in future. A very emotional and meaningful video❤

      @AwesomeFish12 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      She was very nice and professional, however the stores that offer a free exam often charge a higher price for the glasses to cover the price of the "free" service. Often it's better to go to a cheap place like this to learn your prescription(get them to write it down), then go elsewhere and shop around to buy the actual glasses, it can save a small fortune. That's what my grandfather and father always did, saved them hundreds every time(In Australia).

    I haven't finish watching the full video yet, but I have watched a few video's with grandma in it and she seems one of the true hearted, pure heart giving people I have seen in a long while. It's unfortunate her business is not busier and I worry regarding her health and sight. I can tell she is a fiesty gal but with that in mind have you ever thought about starting a fund me account for her. After watching just a few video's I fell in love with her uplifting spirit and think this would help her business and so she can afford health care and finer things she deserves at her age and being stubborn as she seems can start an account where money is automatically put in account. All u do is give her the account and info and let her find out how much she has in it once she can give bank book back. With the exchange rate and all she might end up being richess grandma in Vietnam lol.. I WISH her and you both long life and health

      No one will go out of their way just to ask you if your bag is authentic right???🤭 if she’s rocking that authentic or replica expensive bag good for her .My favorite seller is *suluxy* , they are truly amazing with their products

    Hello Chris, I enjoyed your video so much. It warms my heart to see how you treat your grandma and other people. You have a wonderful soul. I was proud of myself to understand both languages but Im more impressed with your language and social skill as a vietnamese german. Please stay healthy and happy and don't change too much!

    Amazing ❤I hardly comment but i had to tell you how much i admired of your warming of your concern for grandma. Not only just talk but through action, you took her to get her eyes checked and treated her. She would not have gone if you didn't bring her. Her food looks delicious. I wish you bath happiness and good fortune.

    Thank you Chris.
    I started watching you a long while ago.
    I have wanted to visit Vietnam for an even longer time.
    I don't know why. It was like some magnetic pull.
    I got there this year and thank you for making sure I did because of your vlogs.
    I loved it of course but it was the people. Just lovely people.
    Thank you for your care and concern for Grandma. I would do the same for many people I met.
    I wish you well for the future.
    Live your best life.

    Your video came up on my feed and I had to watch it! How thoughtful and caring you are for making sure she could get an eye exam and glasses. I don't think many pple would but having read your bio, you look like you have fully embraced the East Asian & South East Asian understanding that when we feed you, it's our way of showing love and appreciation. That grandma wouldn't take money for it and kept offering you more is so typical, reminds me of my own mom! Good luck with your next chapter, you have a new subscriber in me 😊

    Granda has a heart of pure gold.
    She reminds me of my grandmother, god rest her soul.
    She would serve me a plate of food .. then say here eat some more. I was tapping out at this point, my dad said , ‘ EAT IT ! ‘, she was his Mother in law.

    Hello Chris, it’s really nice of you took her to examine her eyes and got her a pair of glasses. Well, at least this a right moment to pay her back and respect. Nhớ mai mốt có rảnh chở bà đi khám bác sĩ chuyên khoa mắt. You are awesome!

    Bless you, Chris. She is such a generous, sweet lady.. thank you for getting her glasses even if only temporary. I have a feeling she might have a cataract in the one eye. I will miss your videos with her.

    Christopher … what a gracious man you are .. doing that for dear old Grandma is probably the most beautiful thing you could do for a fellow human being in need ..especially at her age ..like you said it’s not a permanent fix but for now you’ve changed her life enough so she can carry on running her restaurant and keep a roof over her head in her old age … Chris you have a beautiful soul .. this is I’m sure is one of many good deeds for humanity in your Resume 🫶🏻💋
