Family first, Brother. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and family. It's a tough gig, Joey. I'm 50 and my dad is battling cancer. There are times when it takes all I have just to focus and accomplish the task before me. Nobody said it is easy. You are loved, and with your strength and intellect, you got this!
We miss you! You were "front line" on the water crisis in Vegas. Honest, truthful, reporting. Hang in there!! Our prayers and blessings are with you and your family. We will be here when you are ready to return. Prayers!!!!
Actually Sin City Outdoors were the frontline reporters…everyone else that came after were riding their coat tails.
@wers1620 Why the hostility? Actually they both started focusing heavy on the Lake Mead drought about the same time, about a 1 year ago. Check out the videos and see. Regardless everyone that has put an effort to keep us informed are all appreciated front line reporters to me. I have family there so I watch all of them!
@@ericbowers1620 Wow! That's what you deem important enough to comment on? How petty!
@@pamelasc9314 not petty at all…just giving credit where its do…most decent people dont take credit from others and I know Joey would know that.
@@LostinMIA not hostile at all just giving the credit where its due…but you must be a woke person and need a safe space to hide if you dont agree with simple commentary of others
Joey, I've been taking care of my mother over two years now while she lives in a group home under the care of hospice. After my dad died of covid, she mentally deteriorated with dementia. She mentally refuses to walk, even though she suffers from no physical impairment. I had to place her in a group home as I physically couldn't get her out of bed or into the shower. I can honestly say that I'm grateful and relieved in placing her into the group home. It was very difficult during the first six months in handling the financial situation as well as the transition into hospice but it gets much better with time and i know it'll get better for you and Maria. I send my love and prayers to you. Your friends will still be here.
Joey, Thank you for the update. I have walked in your shoes. You are on the right path. Family first. Honoring your parents is the only commandment. of ten that provides a bonus (Long life). My father left the planet at 99 last October after battling 4 types of cancer over the last 5 years. My mom is 95 and in good health. I promised to get him out of Baylor Hospital (7 days) and home to leave the planet. It was a miracle that I got him out. He passed that night in his sleep after seeing his bride for 60 years. Your Mom sounds awesome. We will be waiting for you!!! Godspeed
God bless you for respecting your father. I am 77, live in Maine, and would be honored to have you for my son.
May God bless you and your family. I like the walk and talks.
I feel for you sir. My brother passed away 2 years ago. My condolences to you and your family.
Much love Joey! Thanks for the update, we are all here with you. You are a great son man.
Great point about retirement and moving, a body in motion stays in motion, a body at rest stays at rest
So sorry for your family illness situation. So hard to see our parents decline in their later years. Prayers for him and all the family. You need to take the time you need to process all of the changes.
So sad I’m sorry about your father
My mother passed in 2020 at home with a hospice nurse is important to have them in your care not in a hospital
I'm glad for the update Joey. Family should come first and I and many others understand why you've not been posting videos lately.
Take care of yourself. Thanks and Cheers
Hey Joey, love the walk in talks, also really enjoyed seeing the campground. Do what you need to do to help your dad. We will be here waiting. You're right when you say don't stop moving. I wish I'd learned that sooner.
We love you! We'll all be here for you when you return. Take your time!
I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I'm 70y/o and finally have been taking better care of myself since I started riding my recumbent trike. (Lost about 60 lbs & about 8" off my stomach in the past 9 months). Take your time in coming back to us - your family's health is much more important than us. Hi Maria - we miss you!
Joey, so sorry to hear about your dad‘s health problems. I understand your desire to keep your channel going and I also understand the turmoil you must be experiencing from your father‘s health problems as I myself experienced that before my father‘s passing. Remember family first, we owe our parents that. I enjoy your videos, even the walk & talks. I especially enjoy those. The walk & talks could be beneficial to your channel and also to you at this stressful time you just have to find a balance of what you can fit into your schedule. Praying for you and your family, we will be here when you’re ready. 🙏
at the longest, life is brief.
Take advantage of every opportunity you have while you have it. WE LOVE U JOEY. WELL BE HERE WHEN YOU ARE READY. PRAYERS FOR YOUR POPS. ❤
Good to see you -hope there comes a time we'll see more of you. Taking care of our elders is very difficult but take heart you're doing the best thing.
Love the walk and talk! Miss u and Maria!! You do have our sympathy as we all go thru it at some point!! ❤❤❤
It's a blessing you are there for him. Your videos are worth the wait. Retirement is only fun if you have something to do. Walking and sharing sometimes makes the clouds go away. Moms have good advice,
Can you drone from the house?. Gets me off the couch even though I can't walk. Have a great day!
It’s so hard to do but you have to stay strong for those around you and power through. Prayers for you and your family ❤
Good to see you again Joey...so sorry to hear about your fathers health issues. I understand your concerns ..we have gone through a similar situation with family. My husband and I have enjoyed your videos for the last couple of years. Please take care of yourself & Maria ...thats important as well. Prayers & Blessings to you all.
I know exactly what you are going through. I'm in the same situation. I left FL 10yrs ago to help my mom out, but she refuses to do anything anymore. I can no longer take care of her. She is fully capable, but just refuses. Me & my sister gave her an ultimatum yesterday in fact. She don't move & smokes 2 packs of cigs a day. No place for senior living around here accepts smokers. She's 76 & incompliant. I'm 54yo now. I gave up 10yrs of my own life & I've had enough. To some this may offend, but she needs full time help that I just can't give anymore. I feel for you guy! Good luck🙏
Great to see you again brother, praying for your father, stay strong man, God Bless you.
Hang in there, Joey. I’m 53, parents in their 80s, and I feel you. Stubborn Scottish dad on my end. Keep on keeping on. The walk and talk video was nice, and more would be great. Maybe they can be a cathartic outlet for you. ✌️
We'll wait! We are all weeds in your garden that you cannot root out, no matter what you do. Take all the time you need! That is a tough road that you are on right now. Wife and I have traveled down it twice with my wife's mother back in 2001 (colon cancer) and my father back in 2005 (lung cancer).
Thanks for the update, and thank you Mom too! Keeping you and your fam in my thoughts!
Take these quick hugs and pass them around please.
Thank you Joey and Joey's mom to motivate you a little to give us updates! I speak for myself but I like little video like that, just walking around and get updates on you and family. Like you said, it is what it is, and that is part of life, you can't please everybody. I am sure the situation as taken it's tall on you and family :( it is the hardest part of life when you have to start making decisions for your parents, you are never prepared for that! I am now 65 and retired, not the best health but I managed very well. My biggest fear is to have to go to the hospital later on in life and have someone whipping my ass for me :( I have a very hard time dealing with that. Things change when your older and you can't avoid it for the most part. As for myself, I will always support you and your channel along with Maria to your side! I love you guys and I'm always happy to see your videos no matter where they are made! Love and hugs for both of you and your family!
Hi brother I relate with you being 55 myself. I read a few comments below and I feel the same as all your loving fans! Prayers and hugs to you and your family! Do you first! We will be here for you and yes we love hearing from you!!!!! Much love!
Prayers to you and your family right now. I know exactly what you are going through as I lost my Dad 12 years ago. Six weeks after his passing, my stepmother passed, and our family went through that whole ordeal all over again. Now is the time to talk to him and listen to what he has to say. Some things won't necessarily make sense until later. Maybe document it, if he is up to it, even if it's only for your self because once they are gone, you miss the interaction and the sound of their voice. Trust me, I know.
I'm sorry for all of your problems. What's important right now is taking care of yourself self and your family. I would enjoy the walk and talks when you feel up to it.
Joey, I am glad that you are well and taken care of your father. Your father is in my prayers. I am from Lao, born and lived in Thailand until I was 9 years old. Then came to the USA in the 80s. Me and the wifey have a house in southwest Summerlin, Vegas. well, Thank you for all the hard work you did on water report and reviews of products on your channel. God blessed you brother!
❤Alwayzzzz 'Listen' to your mom Joey!😘...Believe me,
We'll ALL be here whenever you get yer pops sitch figured-out! U & your fam are in our thoughts & we wish 🤞 ❤️ u the BEST-OUTCOME...& see u again soon in the future! 👌🎉❤
Rj & Fam.
Laughlin,NV.
Keep it up and real. Thanks for sharing. Praying for you and the family.
Sure miss your videos Joey. My wife and l just buried her dad, he was 89 and we understand how this works. Really was happy to see your face as it's been too long. l will always be a sub of yours as l find your personality and content extremely satisfying.
Believe it or not, I am going through the same thing you are going through. I had both of my parents in the hospital and then into rehab. My 83-year-old father is making somewhat of a comeback but definitely not anywhere he was just a year ago. My mother on the other hand has gone downhill very fast. She is 80 years old and she is a complete mess. She just came out of rehab and can no longer stand. She has an external catheter and I'm fighting with Medicare to get her some home care. I'm not one to change her diapers. Her mind is no longer there either. All of this started a few weeks ago. I mean it hit her fast. She is talking to people that are no longer there. So you might experience the same thing as I am with my parents after rehab. You might need to get "Power of Attorney" to deal with insurance. Just be there for your Father and be patient through these twilight times. And, don't do this all by yourself. Talk to his doctor and keep him/her up to date on his progress.
Family first! UA-cam can wait. Wishing your father the best!
I can 1,000% relate Joey. I am living with nearly identical challenges with my mother, who is 84, turning 85 this summer and has been suffering from dementia for the past 5 years. I'm all she has now and like you, I had to face reality and place her into a nursing home when I could no longer care for her at home. Watching her decline especially over the past 2 yrs has been nothing short of torturous for her and for me. I would never wish this on anyone else. I wish I could say 'hey, just hang in there, it'll get better', but I can't. The future is unknown for folks like us in this situation. Just hope you find your own way through it. I'm struggling and I can completely relate to how you're feeling. Good luck Joey.
Stay strong Kuya. Take your time. We like everything you do. Love the walk and talks.
Good afternoon! Sorry, I know how hard it is. I am almost 65 and my parents passed around 2011. I like walk and talks. Hang in there. Glad to see you again. May God bless you and your family.
No worries Joey.. We’ll always be here you. God bless you and your family during this difficult time. Please thank your Dad for his service.
Hey Joey.......I lost both my parents some years ago.My Mother in 1997 and my Dad in 2009. I had no help with my Dad who became bedridden.He was a very large man and it became impossible for me to help him. I lived with him and did my best but I had to put him in a nursing home. He knew it had to be and was so gracious about it.
Still the hardest thing I've ever done. I have no family so it was all on me. I say this so you will know I understand a lot of what you are dealing with. Listen to your Mother. She is a wise woman. Don't you shut down like your Dad is doing.......
The P.T. might just get him going again.
If you need to talk I would be happy to impart as much info as I can. My heart breaks for you and I have missed your vlogs. The walk and talks are great.Hang on sweet friend. Please say hello to Maria - she's a delightful person.🙏🙏🙏💪💙
Praying for you dear Dad. He is blessed to have you as a loving and caring son.
Your dad said it. Take care of your health. That means live your life and not slow down the way he choose. You will get through this. Be strong
So Sorry to hear about your Pop . My dad was a WWII vet he Physically was okay but his mental state wasn't there he passed at 95. Take it one day at a time. Your mom is wise.
Miss you Joey but family comes first. I know what you’re going through and it’s tough. Your YT family will be waiting and watching whatever you decide to do. ❤️🙏🏼
Hey Joey,
I lost my dad at 23 and cared for him through the last few years of his life through hospice, lost my mother at 26 and cared for her in the last year of her life through hospice and was the executor of the estate for both. (I'm currently 29)
I fully understand not having the motivation. Just do what you can when you can. Even if it's a vlog in your car in-between medical appointments raw-unedited. Just keep pushing. It's hard stuff to deal with. Take all the time you need but don't let it control you. I did and spiraled for a couple years, wasted years.
Keep your head up man!
Strength and prayers to you Joey. I went through this with my dad, now my father in law. Look at the comments here, everyone is and has been going through this. It’s part of life for most. You be strong for the family
The people on your channel are right. Family first. We can wait. Our prayers are with you. Love the walk and talks. It’s nice to not hear ranting.
Also...
"Walk&Talks" are perfectly-fine...
it's kinda like jus takin a walk & talkin w/ a 🧡 friend to ALL of us😂..so keep it up whenevzzz u r..."feelin up to it"!
Thx Joey!
Family comes first. We can miss a video or three. Do what you need to do for your family. Also be sure to take care of yourself. We can wait a bit if you need time.
God bless you
Hi Joey, sorry to hear about your father. I went through the same thing with my mom. She passed away early January. It is so hard i’m not sure what to say. I’ll just keep my prayers to you guys. Hopefully your father will get better. And what getting me through it is talking to my family and friends I think with the support of those things take time again, Joey I hope your father gets better and I will keep praying for you guys and your father. God bless your whole family. Thanks again for the update and again I’m sorry.
Always enjoyed your videos Joey. Especially metal detecting.
Sorry Joey I understand. I take care of my 93yr old mother. Take your time we will be here Prayers to you and your family Its rough to deal with
Family first. You take the time you need. We all are faced with what you are going thru When you are ready we will be here.
We will be right here when you’re ready to come back. Love this video.
God Bless you bro. I've been there. Lost my dad to lung cancer a few years ago, it was very quick, cherish every second with ur family. We are here, we'll always be here, ur one of the good guys on here doing this. I pray for peace and healing for your entire family. Don't worry ur audience will be here when ur ready bro.
Thanks to your Mom ♥️
It is okay for you to take time off so you can take care of family. Looking forward to seeing your regular uploads when you're ready
I understand.. my parents are 85... Motivation. ...you will get it back.... It's hard..
We are in the same boat....
So sorry to hear. I just went through this exactl same thing with my Father. He could understand, but he couldn't get up anymore. His body gave up. Thank God for Hospice care. The rehab hospital didn't work. He went in peace, with his family around him, thanks to a great Hospice team. I hope you get as good of care as we did. It made a huge difference. Hope to see you feeling better soon. Say hello to Marie!
Family first!! Thank you for letting us know. I definitely will be praying for you and your family❤❤
Prayers for you and your family. It's hard to watch a family member just wilt away. Been There ! GOD Bless !
Appreciate the update. Please help your father to be spiritually ready to pass away. When you have that assurance you will be uplifted guaranteed. Meant to write earlier that your talk story tours are very much looked forward to and enjoyed. Aloha.
You do you. You don't owe us anything. Your mom is sweet for standing behind you and thinking of us! Prayers for your family.
I lost my 79 yo Mom in a house fire a couple years ago. She was healthy. I don't know which is worse. Watching your parent decline or to have them taken suddenly. My dad passed away from a heart attack at age 59. That was sudden as well.
Aloha Joey!! Thanks for the update! My mom just turned 90 last week, and she's been living with us for the past couple years, so I feel your pain. But glad your dad has a good son taking care of him! We'll be here when you get back, don't worry! Cheers and mahalo!!!
I understand caring for your aging and dying parent. My mom just passed in May. I was able to take her home until two days before she passed. If you don't have the ability or time off work it's very difficult, but wouldn't change a thing. I'm 55. I stopped making videos also. Still grieving. Your channel will be there when your ready to start again. ML to you and your family. ❤
Thanks for letting us know. dont worry were not going anywhere. If you need to talk and walk thats great. im 59 and have just been through all this with mom. When her health declined and when she passed and her estate, there was very little time for a lot of my own stuff. So i know where youre coming from. You can always come here and talk-stay strong!
So sorry to hear about your dad. You are so right. Only 67 and I force myself to get out and do things. It doesn't matter what it is but as long as I do it
I do recognize your worries, sorrow and pain. Good to see you back. Hang in there, saludos de Korsow (Greetings from Curacao)
glad to hear from you.. we missed you.
But…
family first, family comes first. But remember that your youtube family is standing ready for you!
many prayers for your father and family. 🙏🏼🖤💙💜💙🖤🙏🏼
I was thinking you were going thru stuff. I’ve been through my Dad dying and I had my hand on my Mom as she passed so I understand. Take all the time you need and take care of Poppa. Make sure you take care of your sweet wife too. I love it when she is out with you when you are out exploring.
Thank you Joey, for your candid personal update. We absolutely understand the challenges of the family care situation with your dad, and fully appreciate your present priorities.
We’ll be right here, and will appreciate anything you would like to share, whenever you are able to share, whether your personal situation, the water reports, reviews or your thoughts and musings regarding anything else.
Count us as devoted and appreciative Vegas Dtech viewers, and people who just genuinely care. Take whatever time you need, and do whatever you folks need to do. We’re staying right here, patiently.
Warmest regards and loving care from us, to you and your family. -Thomas and Esther, Livermore CA
Keeping you and your family and father in my prayers!
Everyone has a life outside youtube and thats ok. It will be here when you are ready. Be thinking about you and pray for you to get thru this soon. Dealing with an aging parent is hard on many levels and a lot of us respect what you are dealing with because weve been there and others know they will be there soon too. God bless
We do miss Maria and you Joey. Thanks for keeping us informed of what is going on. Its good to have an update,, even if it's just a short,, to let us know you guys are ok.. Hope your father is doing better.🙏Will pray for your entire family.
It's hard to watch our parents get old. Mine have been gone for years. God Bless you and Maria while you are going through the tough time in life. Sending prayers 🙏❣️
Family first. Touch bases when you can but treasure the time you have left with your father. We don't get second chances when time runs out.
You're a good son. Our parents took care of us, sacrificed for us. I took care of my dad in his later years. Although pretty healthy, his clock slowly ran out and it was a privilege to take care of him and make him as comfortable as possible. Let him know you love him...
Thanks for the life update, and I thank your father for his service to our country. I have been through very similar times that you are going through. Spend as much time with your parents while you have the opportunity. I don't regret a single minute of caring for or visiting with them while I could. I'll stay subscribed and catch you whenever you post. God bless.
Hang in there Joey. Many of us have been through what your dealing with now. Like you said, it's part of the circle of life. Family always comes first and we understand that. You have our support, thoughts and prayers.
Family first!
Maybe you could interview your dad, I bet he has interesting stories that could be fun for us and satisfying for you! What about a walk and talk getting him out in a wheelchair but getting some sun in an empty park on a weekday!
Also if your time is short make a short vlog.
Praying for you and your family.
I like the walk and talk. I will pray for you and your DAD. Hope he gets better will light a candle for your dad at church on Sunday.❤
I missed you and Maria. Glad that you are back. I completely understand about caregivers delima. Hang in there✝️🙏🏼🛐🇺🇸🔔🇺🇸
Mom is right. I was wondering. But family 1st. 🙏 for your family ❤
I fully understand. My own dad went through a decade of declining health, and for his last year or so, he was no longer able to get out of bed. He was morbidly obese and didn't take care of his health. Stay strong and enjoy the time you and your dad have left, Joey, my friend.
Second comment to answer your question, yes I always enjoyed your walk and talks around your neighborhood ! I always enjoy your talks and enjoy seeing the neighborhoods, as well as your lake Mead , and park walks!
this time comes to us all as we lose our parents,I still miss them both. Keep in mind the great memories you have with them. We send you our best wishes. we've been there
I am happy to hear that you are putting your family first. Thank you for taking such good care of your dad. Take your time getting back on here. You got this.
So sorry to hear this, it is so very hard to care for a parent as they age. Stay strong and keep your faith.
Sorry to hear about your dad. Lost my parents already,3 weeks apart. Can certainly understand why you're not sure what to do. Just spend time with your family. We're not going anywhere.
Brother Joey, Life changes takes a toll on us and Hope when you come back I will still be around to watch your videos. As I feel over the past 5+yrs I got to know ya.. Prayers for Your Father and Family. I would not mind listening to you talk while swinging a metal detector and digging again also. Much Love Brother Take care of yourself and Family to the best you can and I know I be here.. You keep things real.. Peace
🙏 sorry to hear this awful news Joey. Sending positive vibes to your pops and your family
So sorry to hear about your dad. It's hard and something we all deal with at some point. You might check into options for home care. I wish you the best and will be watching when you have time to resume doing videos again. God bless!
Joey and Maria - miss you both: your videos were real and to the point. Take care ok
We're going through it now.
Please keep sharing. It's a help in time of need that we find each other for support.
Thank you- blessing you shared.
Hang in there. It is a real tough thing to go through. Went through the same thing with my dad.
Hey Joey, so sorry about your dad! This is your dad, u-tube makes all the channels seem so surreal! Nothing outside of your channel exists. It’s s extremely hard to handle the situation and handle your own well being. Appreciate you coming to us, subscribers to give us some information and I feel for you ,wishing everything works out the best for everyone involved and I personally know from my experience and I don’t have an obligation to a u tube channel. But it can and did stress me out. We are human and just do what you think is best. We are your other family, and family is there for each other! ❤👍😎
Take care of your family. I can also say Lake Mead up 8 feet since January 1, 2024.
Thanks for the update! Hang in there something we all have to sadly go through.
