I'm sorry Bob but I believe the gluten free diet will not help your form of ataxia. It's way overhyped as a cure all for just about everything.. I'm very sorry about your health problems and believe it or not, it never occurred to me that you had been drinking. I never thought that of you! If you want prayers you've got them from me. 🙏🙏🙏 Please stop telling perfectly healthy people to go gluten free. It's unethical and unbecoming behavior. Gluten containing grains are good healthy food for the majority of the world. They provide much needed fiber and vitimins
Bob and Brad are the old school youtube guys... before algorithm , before thumbnails , before click baits.... just a couple of dedicated professionals determined to spread good information for those who need it. It's of course very sad to see bad thing happening with good people so let me just send the best wishes to Bob and may he can have a decent quality of life with his condition. Best of the best to all guys handling the channel for all those years. We love you Bob! Cheers!
We are all just walking each other home. If all the help you've given everyone comes back to you in prayers, health and blessings, you'll be turning handsprings in no time! You've got this and God's got you! Prayers! And the same for all our suffering ones....
That was my thought also. I'm sure Bob is being very generous when he says that this UA-cam channel is his greatest pleasure in life. 😢 I agree about gluten. Let's hope that the absence of gluten etc. will help and heal. The body is an amazing healing machine. God bless you 😊
Heavenly Father, Please bless Bob with relief from his health issues and continue to keep both he and Brad healthy, so that they can continue to share their excellent knowledge. Please also bless the viewers that come to this channel. Grant us all relief from our pain and suffering as we follow the techniques offered by Bob and Brad. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
I came here after I just saw your update video on Bob's condition. Bob, I'm so sorry for your diagnosis. I started crying when you told people to send their prayers to people who are suffering worse than you. You have a huge heart and you have helped so many people. Sending you positive vibes. Take care!!
Today is April 18, 2023, and I am learning of Bob's health challenges only today. Bob, you and Brad have both helped me navigate some niggling physical challenges with success. I'm sending you both a big hug and thank you for continuing to create content.
@BobandBrad Bob, first and foremost I'm sending you good healing energy. Optimally I hope that your health remains stable and your condition doesn't progress. Secondly I'm sending good healing energy out to everyone in this community who suffers from pain and discomfort (myself included). I hope we all stay well. Take care of yourself.❤❤🙏🙏
I too just saw this video. I watch this UA-cam channel sporadically as various ailments arise so I was not aware of Bob’s health issue until now. Sending best wishes to you Bob as you work through your challenges. I so enjoy watching you and Brad and find the shows to be informative and very helpful. I have recommended them to my friends and family. (I even bought the percussion muscle massage gun which I love!). Now it is our (the viewers) turn to give back and provide encouragement and support to you. Keeping you in our prayers.
@@smallhouseinthemeadow6131 It affects all nervous tissue in the body. Different countries set their idea of normal B12 levels at different blood levels. It should be at a minimum of 550 ng/l
@@smallhouseinthemeadow6131 Hi, I'm a speech path and yes, ataxia can be caused by the cerebellum. The cerebellum moderates motor movement. It's the cerebellum that tells you that you are falling and helps with coordinated movement along our motor pathways. Hope that made sense. I'm not a neurologist but as a speech path, I do have to have some understanding of how motor skills are affected by different parts of the brain.
As someone who has lived with Ataxia my entire life (due to Cerebral Palsy), I want to thank you for shining a light on this. It's not uncommon for people to assume I am drunk(including cops) and /or intellectually challenged. One thing people don't realize is that in addition to physical adjustments, anticipating things that could cause a fall is mentally exhausting as well. Be patient with yourself and keep sharing with us. Sending you all the love and good thoughts.
It makes so much sense. I can throw a ball to someone and it doesn't take much effort, but if I had to calculate all the trajectories and forces and physics behind hitting the target it would be mentally exhausting. The brain usually does all that subconsciously and it takes a huge part of the brain to do it. Throw a bug in the brain's programming so it doesn't do it well anymore and we have to do more of the exhausting calculations ourselves. Balance, speech, pretty much any muscle control needs calculations.
Longtime lurker, first time commenter. Just sending lots of love and deep admiration for staying on the air through thick and thin with whatever accommodations you need. You have always been, and now are even more of an inspiration to us all to keep moving and working with what we’ve got. 💜

Bob, I am an OBGYN physician. I have and will continue to refer my patients to your channel for excellent advice, education, compassion and a bit of humor. I Now add that you two are also an example of bravery, vulnerability and friendship. Prayers coming your way!
Bob and Brad - you changed the physiotherapy world by making every little topic reach all of us! 💝💕Love you both! Praying for you Bob and it’s so kind of you directing prayers others too!
Absolutely! I will definitely send healing prayers and blessings to you both and everyone who is facing life challenges. Living this life can be uphill at times, for sure. I applaud your ability to share your changing situation with us. Thank you for your openness. You have been a huge inspiration to me over time, and I am so glad that that will continue. Take good care of yourself. You guys are amazing!! 🤩🤗❤
I’m one of the multitude of people who love and appreciate you both.♥️🙏♥️Sending healing energy to Bob and the folks in your community. Thank you for being with us and all the good info and care you offer so generously. ✋🏻🙏💕👍
You two have been my “go to” physical therapists for so many ailments that if I paid you, you could retire and live on an island, broadcasting from a warm beach with gentle tropical breezes ! Prayers for you and the Bob and Brad community.
I just turned 50 and have cerebral palsy. Your channel is the first place I go when something starts to ache from walking off balance for so long. Your videos always help (this time I’m watching for help with shoulder impingement) until I can get in to see a PT. I’m glad you found help at Mayo, Gillette also has an adult clinic up here in St. Paul that I’m fortunate enough to be near. I agree with your daughters, Bob, keep doing the videos.
Got you in my prayers Bob you’ve changed my attitude towards exercise from “no not this lady”to a 74 year old woman who wants to live well. So dear Bob from here in Jerusalem you are in my prayers and as a retired Speech pathologist listen to your daughter!
“As therapists we have problems…we don’t run away from it, we face it” 💯 Thank you for sharing and choosing to encourage us while dealing with your own health. 🙏🏾❤️
Bob, you are blessed and a blessing to millions of people all over the world. God who created you will heal you and perfect all that concerns you by His grace and mercy. We love you and wish you all the best.
As a recently retired family doctor, I have personally used and recommended your videos for many years. Thank you for the great service! Sorry to hear of your recent diagnosis, but I am happy to hear that you are continuing your work. Godspeed!
absolutely! I was thinking the same thing. The world is DEFINITELY a better place when people with illness and/or disability are visible. Thanks Bob (and Brad 😁).
Bob, It’s September 1, 2023 and I am just seeing this as I told my sister about you and want to find a video to share with her. Your channel has been my go to channel for years whenever I need help. You are handling this with such dignity and grace. I will be honored to pray for all of your listeners who need it most, but also will be praying for you. Godspeed 🙏🏽
This brought tears to my eyes. You’ve helped millions of people who sometimes had no where else to turn to. I am one of them. God bless you always. You have set a very positive, helpful and hopeful example for others. You will have an abundance of prayers and positive vibes surrounding you. Thank you for sharing this with us. Thank you for all you do!
As someone who was recently diagnosed with MS after 13+ years of symptoms, and has been helped enormously by your channel with gait and spasticity issues (and more), I will definitely be praying for you, Bob! Thank you for sharing your diagnosis with us.
I don’t care if Bob has to hold up signs or tell Brad what to say, I’ll still be watching the videos. You’ve helped me with my back and neck, so you got my prayers to a hearing God.
I just saw this yesterday and Bob's story has been on my mind. I'm a retired PT and I occasionally watch Bob and Brad for the fun, advice and common sense. One of the great aspects of being a PT is learning from amazing colleagues. Bob your courage and fortitude is an example not only for your family but also for your fans on the internet. I've learned from you. God bless.
I’ve also been diagnosed with cerebellar ataxia, it ended my military career. My doctors tell me to keep working out. I have and my balance is better and my condition is stable. Keep fighting brother!
I burst into tears when YOU sent prayers to US. Bob, you are the sweetest man and you two bring so much joy and hope to so many people. We love you!!!!

Bob, you're a sweetheart, not a mess! And you now have 4.93 Million subscribers -- wow!! What a sweet message from both of you. I'm just seeing this, a year after you posted it. I love you & Brad, you have helped my SI Joint issues SO much, due to ONE move you taught me that changed everything! You will be in my prayers, Bob, & as you asked, I'll also pray for your followers who are suffering. I am SO glad you'll still be doing videos, & I pray you'll be able to continue for years to come! I'm having shoulder issues, & came back to get your advice on that. Should've kept watching, should never have stopped. God bless you both. Take good care!
I am a speech language pathologist and wish you the best. Your daughter is right on target, keep videoing, and be the example so many people need. Disability should not isolate you. Love you guys!
Two of the nicest guys on the internet. This is the first time I’ve noticed Bob’s ailment. Your challenges Bob makes me even more dedicated to your channel. I pray for you and your followers.
Prayers for you, Bob! You’ve both helped me so much. I pray for your full return to health. Thanks for soldiering on and continuing the videos. We’ll be watching and learning from you!
I've watched and learned a lot from you guys as a college student. Now, I'm a registered physical therapist. I pray you'd continue to stay strong, Bob. And more power to your team. ❤
Bob, just because you’re having problems, that doesn’t take a way from your knowledge of your profession and your desire to help others with physical therapy 👍🏼 Keep on working at getting better. My prayers are up for you.🙏🏼
I'm a physical therapist and love you guys, you've helped many. I often refer people to your videos. Bob there's no reason for you to stop, you're wonderful!
Bob, I'm 73 and have CP. It affects my speech and coordination. My advice is to keep on doing what you're doing as long as you enjoy doing it. Of all the issues with CP for me the hardest to deal with was my speech impairment. I earned a MA in rehab counseling and during my career I served adults and children with developmental disabilities. Years ago one of my co-workers said something to me that really helped me put things into perspective. I don't remember how we got onto the subject but we were talking about my speech impairment. He told me that to him my speech impairment was no different than if a had a foreign accent. We then started laughing comparing it to the doctors from foreign countries we knew who had accents and that it didn't hold them back at all. Yes, people will make assumptions but it helped me to think of it that way. I hope it helps you too. Wishing you the best always.
Dearest Bob, I'm sure you feel your body betrayed you, but know that your openess and sharing will help many many others. Please keep making videos. We can live with speech problems.
I strongly agree with the plea to keep speaking! It so helps bring awareness, and you never know who you might help with their own journey. Thank you Bob, for being willing to share this with the world. Best of wishes for you, your family, loved ones, and Brad 😘😘
1000%! Beautifully said! We are SO with you in support & at the same time, await more educational, funny, intelligent, silly, and ALWAYS valuable content!
This brought tears to my eyes! You both have helped me so much and I often share your videos. I even sing your jingle 😉 I am a Christian and a strong believer in the power of prayer!! You will definitely be on my prayer list, Bob. May God guide you as you navigate these uncertain waters, He knows the way!!
I have been watching "Bob and Brad" videos for quite a few years and always get so much out of them. Thank you for your courage in sharing your health problems Bob. Once again you show us how it's done Bob. Keep on truckin'. 🙂
I only learned about bob's health problems with the new vid today, it's crazy how much it has affected him over only a year, but I hope he can still be a part of the video/social media or at least have some background role so he doesn't have to completely give up what he loves doing!
Bob, you and Brad feel like family so I'm glad you're not dealing with ALS, MS, or PD. I'm glad your daughters can help you. And of course, your old buddy Brad will be doing his part as well. We look forward to upcoming videos.
Your videos help me so much. Never give up. Doctors PRACTICE medicine. They don’t know everything! We love you and all you do. God knows what is happening. You’ve got this🙏
Been watching u both since my late 30's,u guys are awesome,once I watched 1 clip I was hooked 1 hr later I was still listening & stil am to this very day...wil certainly miss you Bob,🙏
You two. I hope you know how much you’re loved and respected. Your integrity, knowledge, and generosity, the way you work together, it’s all a shining light in a world that has gotten pretty messy. Thank you for being you, for still showing integrity. You want others to face their adversities and do what they can, and you are doing the same. You ARE blessings to each of us. I’m praying for you-and as you requested, for your patients and audience too. We’re with you for the long haul, brothers.
My brother recently suffered a severe stroke and I sent him a plaque and it stated, “this was something he was going through but not who he was”. You are my most favorite physical therapists and I’m pretty sure that you’re the most famous because the Internet said so.
I wanted to stop by and say, I am currently a truck driver, and have worked in factories and warehouses for years. I first found you guys, about seven years ago, when I was terrified that I was going to become disabled due to severe back pain. For a very long time now, I have come to this channel for serious wrist pain, leg pain, shoulder pain and even after an injury. You guys have been my go to guys for a lot of different problems over the years. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the work you do and the help you have given me and so many others. Just knowing that there were things I could do to improve my health, also saved me lots of anxiety, worry and major stress. I wish you guys the best for many more years to come and can never thank you enough for all that you do.
I’m learning that everyone has something they’re dealing with, no one is exempt from the human condition. God bless you, Bob, and restore your health so you can continue to help millions! I’ll be praying for you.
You are very right. I have been having health issues for some yrs now, and have been isolating myself from people I know, off course thinking their lives are perfect and mine is not. Recently I touched base with most of them, to let them know my Mom passed. I was very surprised to hear what they have been dealing with. Even more worse than me. I learnt just like you`ve said, everyone has something they are dealing with.
Bob, everyone has something they’re struggling with. I have physical problems and since my husband died, emotional challenges too. Seeing you face your challenges gives everyone the courage and the will to keep going. I am praying for you and for everyone for health and healing of body, mind and spirit.
This made me cry so hard. I recently suffered a pretty bad meniscus root tear and while I was waiting for workers comp to approve my surgery so i could walk again ( 7months total )your videos helped me to bring my pain down tremendously! It saddens me how fragile the human body is and that anyone can get hurt or anything at any moment . Love you bob 🩷🙏🏽🫶🏽
I love you both! Mr Bob is doing a wonderful job he has plenty of support he can do it he will overcome this! Foods that are nourishing to the gut and brain will help. Yes allergy testing is very important you can get tested for food allergies not just gluten there are many out there. But this brings the inflammation down. Thank you guys for all your hard work and encouraging others they can do it too! Praying for you Mr Bob! ❤️🙏 The Lord bless you more!
I spent 11.5 years volunteering in a free medical/dental clinic supported by two church's. My role? I prayed with patients. You have prayers 🙏 🙏 coming your way!!
Well Bob, looks like you’ve got a specialist praying for you! 😉 And I’m willing to bet he’s got some praying friend as well! With so many of us praying for you, I’d say you’re in the hands of folks who are faithfully willing to lay you at the feet of the highest Physician you could hope to have. ♥️🙏🏼
I'm a retired physical therapist and have sent many of your videos to friends who have benefited from your expertise. So I thank you both very much. I am also a believer in the Great Physician Jesus and am praying for His healing touch on your body, Bob. And may your spirit and optimism remain strong!
Bob, I know it’s scary to lose functions or having impaired functions. I was just diagnosed with Parkinson’s,but now I say, “ I have a healthy body with a little a Parkinson’s”. I will pray for you and all of us followers of the two most famous physical therapists on the internet🥳! Brad, thanks for being such a good friend to Bob💜
I'm a PTA, and have enjoyed your vids for years now. I was surfing UA-cam, and saw Bob with another Brad, and was like what the heck. When I googled why I found this vid. Know that I am thinking of you and sending good thoughts your way. Thank you for all your great vids.
This video is so powerful. Bob explaining what the challenge is, and what it ISN'T. Brad being a calm, still snarky, friend cheering his buddy on. What a great model of helpful, healing relationship. Thanks, you famous internet physical therapists!
Coming back to Bob and Brad after 18 months and finding this. Thank you for your commitment and passion. It's a good decision to continue to do the videos -- the benefits to the community can never be overstated. I wish you will overcome this and keep serving this world.
Bob - Its wonderful to have you back, Brad was looking lonely without you! I"m glad to see your sense of humor hasn't been affected. Sending love and positive vibes to you and everyone you help with this channel!
Your boyish enthusiasm has endeared you to the hearts millions. We love and appreciate all that you do. Best wishes to you and your family. Oh, we like Brad too 🤪
I, like your daughter, am also a speech language pathologist. Over the last 40 years, I’ve worked with a number of patients who have had speech difficulties such as yours. There are many compensatory strategies that your daughter will teach you that you will be able to implement to help make your speech more intelligible. What luck that you have an SLP right in the family! All the best.
Prayers! ❤ I’m in my 30s and was diagnosed with axial spondyloarthritis and for a few months have been unable to walk without a walker and I can say from experience praying for other people while I’m hurting has been an amazing blessing! Turning complaining into a blessing on someone else has helped so much! ❤
Bob, you have been a blessing to us for years. Now it’s our turn to help you. Prayers to God is what we do on a daily basis. You are now on our prayer list. May God continue to bless you.
Sending positive vibes to Bob, your determination will keep you going. Thank you for your videos and help over the years. All the best to everyone out there who are seeking help too.
I really appreciate your candor, Bob and Brad. I know this can't be easy. I will pray for you because a prayer for you will mean prayers for all your patients who come to you for help and benefit from your care.
Bob - I have Ataxia too! For me it's genetic so I always knew I might inherit it. It's very rare, so thank you so much for sharing your story and spreading awareness about Ataxia!
My family has the gene. We have at least a dozen members that have ataxia. We were all (those who wanted to be) tested I was one of the lucky ones. I am 66 and keep active daily my cousin the same age has It. Her speech, balance motor skills are very much effected. I count my blessings everyday. God bless you!
I just saw this video today….. 6-3-23 and I am so sorry to hear of Bob’s diagnosis. Prayers are going up for you Bob for God to lay his healing hand on you. Bob and Brad have helped me so much with all my physical pain. You guys are the best!! Both of you help so many people and we all thank you so much. Love your sense of humor!! Of course seeing this video was because I came to your channel to see the utube video on neck pain and pinched nerve to refresh my memory of the excercises that I had seen last year and came across this video of bobs struggles. So sorry you’re going through this and I will keep you in my prayers. Take care. ❤️
We just saw this video today..10/2/23. We are so sorry to hear about Bob’s diagnosis. We’ve both been helped so much through your videos, and are sending our thanks and prayers for Bob…and Brad. You are our heroes. All our love! Anne & Rick Mullins Crossville, TN
Hey Bob, you have dedicated your life to helping others. Now please take care of yourself. A lot of thankful people in your corner . God bless and keep you!
How can one even begin to express how touching and impressive this video is? Bob is being so brave with his honesty and openness. And Brad is, as always, such an empathic person. I started watching you guys when I was stuck inside during the pandemic and you have become like real friends to me. I have bought several of your products and have recommended you to others who might benefit from all you give to the watchers. And, the word "give" is noteworthy - how many others on the Internet share similar things but expect payment. You have gone above and beyond with kindness and generosity. Bob, we are all right with you - hoping for the best outcome in this difficult situation. Thank you, guys and God bless you both.
We love you both! Sending love and prayers to all on need. I went gluten-free (and dairy and sugar-free) to treat a digestive disorder that was causing debilitating symptoms, then took a probiotic to reset my gut floral, and have improved so much. I haven’t had so much as a cold for a couple years. It doesn’t hurt to switch to a healthier diet to support the body’s healing systems.
You guys are LEGENDs - you've taught how to work through problems your whole career so I think this is the best way to deal with it. You've fixed my fingers in the past and my shoulder. Currently it is my knee. Will be praying for you mate! Mark
You are not stupid. You are strong and amazing and thoughtful. Thank you for being there in helping me. You can stagger and speak "tongue tied" all you like I will certainly keep watching with many prayers for you and others
Prayers for you Bob! You both have helped me and my family through so many pains and injuries- we are so grateful and we pray for your recovery and your strength and give thanks for your heart and generosity and talent through the years! 💜 🙌🏼
The both of you have helped me in my journey. A few years ago I was very lucky to survive a very large brain aneursym (two brain surgeries), and just a few months ago I had a stroke. Watching you has helped me physically and mentally with your sense of humour and great outlook on life. My advice to you Bob, keep a positive outlook. It took me seven years to learn to read again. Never give up!
Bob, you bring us laughter, pain relief and knowledge everyday. Our hearts and prayers are with you to continue to improve and be an inspiration to so many.
Truly sad to hear Bob is unwell. These are ironies of fate that a person who had helped millions of people to improve their health condition falls a victim to ill health himself. We can feel his ( including Brad) genuine desire to reach out to a helping hand to many unknown people. - something rare in this highly commercialised world. I am reminded of the Buddhist concept of 'impermanence.'I am certain he will not lose his good cheer. WE pray for you Bob.
Bob I hope that anytime you feel overwhelmed by the situation, you come here to read how loved and appreciated you are. Brad too! Thank you for the years of ongoing support you’ve given to the world! Love, resilience, and wellness wished upon you and your loved ones, along with those who’ve looked to you for help. ❤
I, in no way, deserve all of your kind words. If I could, I would find each and every one of you and dole out hugs until my arms fell off. Thank You!!
You’ve helped so many of us - you deserve all of the love you are getting. Prayers for you and all who are suffering.
You deserve it, Bob! We're praying for you. It's your turn to receive. Also, an assistance dog could help you with your balance; a furry friend.
It’s not your fault that you’re so loveable.
I'm sorry Bob but I believe the gluten free diet will not help your form of ataxia. It's way overhyped as a cure all for just about everything.. I'm very sorry about your health problems and believe it or not, it never occurred to me that you had been drinking. I never thought that of you! If you want prayers you've got them from me. 🙏🙏🙏 Please stop telling perfectly healthy people to go gluten free. It's unethical and unbecoming behavior. Gluten containing grains are good healthy food for the majority of the world. They provide much needed fiber and vitimins
Your (and Brad's) work have helped many of us. We are reflecting back all the love and care you have shown us for many years.
Bob, you are not a mess! Your body has some issues (whose doesn’t), but your person is beautiful and we, your viewers, love you.
Exactly! ❤️
I agree that it’s great that Bob and Brad will continue to make videos to help us, and that helps Bob too. Sending prayers and best wishes🙏🙏🙏
Love you Bob! Prayers coming your way!
What do you two think about acupuncture for nerve pain. Drs say drugs. Pain shoot behind scapula.

Bob and Brad are the old school youtube guys... before algorithm , before thumbnails , before click baits.... just a couple of dedicated professionals determined to spread good information for those who need it.
It's of course very sad to see bad thing happening with good people so let me just send the best wishes to Bob and may he can have a decent quality of life with his condition.
Best of the best to all guys handling the channel for all those years.
We love you Bob! Cheers!
Thank you very much, we appreciate you!!
@@BobandBradAmen. Sending prayers and best wishes with everything. 🙏🙏🙏
We are all just walking each other home. If all the help you've given everyone comes back to you in prayers, health and blessings, you'll be turning handsprings in no time! You've got this and God's got you! Prayers! And the same for all our suffering ones....
Well said, Carol!
Beautifully put! Thank you!
I concur.
Amen
Amen, Carol
This made me cry. You both are so incredibly wholesome and a joy to watch. Praying for Bob!
That was my thought also.
I'm sure Bob is being very generous when he says that this UA-cam channel is his greatest pleasure in life.
😢 I agree about gluten.
Let's hope that the absence of gluten etc. will help and heal.
The body is an amazing healing machine.
God bless you 😊
Been thru cancer in my 40s we are all very human. Sending lots of compassion. God Bless
Heavenly Father, Please bless Bob with relief from his health issues and continue to keep both he and Brad healthy, so that they can continue to share their excellent knowledge. Please also bless the viewers that come to this channel. Grant us all relief from our pain and suffering as we follow the techniques offered by Bob and Brad. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Amen 🙏🏾
Amen
Amen 🙏
Yes!!!! Amen!!!!!!!!!
Amen
I came here after I just saw your update video on Bob's condition. Bob, I'm so sorry for your diagnosis. I started crying when you told people to send their prayers to people who are suffering worse than you. You have a huge heart and you have helped so many people. Sending you positive vibes. Take care!!
Youvare such kind people. Sending ❤
Today is April 18, 2023, and I am learning of Bob's health challenges only today. Bob, you and Brad have both helped me navigate some niggling physical challenges with success. I'm sending you both a big hug and thank you for continuing to create content.
This means a lot, thank you!
Same here, I follow on Instagram but never really heard the speech difference. He still has a sense of humor so he really is Strong Like Bull!!
praying for healing for Bob, also just learned about this, oh my! thanks for continuing to teach us about so many physical challenges
@BobandBrad Bob, first and foremost I'm sending you good healing energy. Optimally I hope that your health remains stable and your condition doesn't progress. Secondly I'm sending good healing energy out to everyone in this community who suffers from pain and discomfort (myself included). I hope we all stay well. Take care of yourself.❤❤🙏🙏
I too just saw this video. I watch this UA-cam channel sporadically as various ailments arise so I was not aware of Bob’s health issue until now. Sending best wishes to you Bob as you work through your challenges. I so enjoy watching you and Brad and find the shows to be informative and very helpful. I have recommended them to my friends and family. (I even bought the percussion muscle massage gun which I love!). Now it is our (the viewers) turn to give back and provide encouragement and support to you. Keeping you in our prayers.
All the good wishes Bob get well soon.
Thank you!
@@BobandBrad Please look into B12 deficiency!!! Doctors don't test for it enough. The end result could be dementia and not being able to walk.
@@inchristalone25 does it affect the cerebellum?
@@smallhouseinthemeadow6131 It affects all nervous tissue in the body. Different countries set their idea of normal B12 levels at different blood levels. It should be at a minimum of 550 ng/l
@@smallhouseinthemeadow6131 Hi, I'm a speech path and yes, ataxia can be caused by the cerebellum. The cerebellum moderates motor movement. It's the cerebellum that tells you that you are falling and helps with coordinated movement along our motor pathways. Hope that made sense. I'm not a neurologist but as a speech path, I do have to have some understanding of how motor skills are affected by different parts of the brain.
As someone who has lived with Ataxia my entire life (due to Cerebral Palsy), I want to thank you for shining a light on this. It's not uncommon for people to assume I am drunk(including cops) and /or intellectually challenged. One thing people don't realize is that in addition to physical adjustments, anticipating things that could cause a fall is mentally exhausting as well. Be patient with yourself and keep sharing with us. Sending you all the love and good thoughts.
I appreciate the kind words. All my love to you!
So thankful for your transparency and continued work! Glad you're sticking with us!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It makes so much sense. I can throw a ball to someone and it doesn't take much effort, but if I had to calculate all the trajectories and forces and physics behind hitting the target it would be mentally exhausting. The brain usually does all that subconsciously and it takes a huge part of the brain to do it. Throw a bug in the brain's programming so it doesn't do it well anymore and we have to do more of the exhausting calculations ourselves. Balance, speech, pretty much any muscle control needs calculations.
God bless you and keep you safe!
As a physical therapist, My heart goes out to you and your family. You guys started PT on youtube. Definitely pioneers.
Longtime lurker, first time commenter. Just sending lots of love and deep admiration for staying on the air through thick and thin with whatever accommodations you need. You have always been, and now are even more of an inspiration to us all to keep moving and working with what we’ve got. 💜
Hello dear, how are you doing?
Yes, this. With both what we have and haven't got, and maybe the Good Lord will make up the rest!

Sending healing prayers for someone who has helped SO many people AND everyone who is struggling with physical issues.
Amen
Absolutely! I will definitely send healing prayers and blessings to you both and everyone who is facing life challenges. Living this life can be uphill at times, for sure. I applaud your ability to share your changing situation with us. Thank you for your openness. You have been a huge inspiration to me over time, and I am so glad that that will continue. Take good care of yourself. You guys are amazing!!

I’m one of the multitude of people who love and appreciate you both.♥️🙏♥️Sending healing energy to Bob and the folks in your community. Thank you for being with us and all the good info and care you offer so generously. ✋🏻🙏💕👍
Yes for sure. So sorry Bob. Love you both and appreciate all you do
@@scatling2065 Yes, thanks for your openness (and humor), Bob. It's nice of you to share with viewers, who might also be going through some things.
You two have been my “go to” physical therapists for so many ailments that if I paid you, you could retire and live on an island, broadcasting from a warm beach with gentle tropical breezes !
Prayers for you and the Bob and Brad community.
Thank you 😊!
You can't get rid of us that easy, Bob. We're hanging onto you for a long time yet!!! You guys are amazing. hugs
Thank you 😊!
I just turned 50 and have cerebral palsy. Your channel is the first place I go when something starts to ache from walking off balance for so long. Your videos always help (this time I’m watching for help with shoulder impingement) until I can get in to see a PT.
I’m glad you found help at Mayo, Gillette also has an adult clinic up here in St. Paul that I’m fortunate enough to be near. I agree with your daughters, Bob, keep doing the videos.
I “concur” with your daughters. Stay as active as you can. We, your viewers, support you 100%. We’re there rooting for you.
Got you in my prayers Bob you’ve changed my attitude towards exercise from “no not this lady”to a 74 year old woman who wants to live well. So dear Bob from here in Jerusalem you are in my prayers and as a retired Speech pathologist listen to your daughter!

“As therapists we have problems…we don’t run away from it, we face it” 💯 Thank you for sharing and choosing to encourage us while dealing with your own health. 🙏🏾❤️
Bob, you are blessed and a blessing to millions of people all over the world. God who created you will heal you and perfect all that concerns you by His grace and mercy. We love you and wish you all the best.
Their friendship and mutual respect is beautiful ❤
As a recently retired family doctor, I have personally used and recommended your videos for many years. Thank you for the great service! Sorry to hear of your recent diagnosis, but I am happy to hear that you are continuing your work. Godspeed!
Prayers for Bob and all those suffering from difficulties that make life hard. 🙏 We love you, Bob! 💜
Thank you!
Amen 🙏🏼
Bob, by staying on, I think you are helping others with physical problems deal more positively with their challenges. Thank you!
absolutely! I was thinking the same thing. The world is DEFINITELY a better place when people with illness and/or disability are visible. Thanks Bob (and Brad 😁).
Praying for you, Bob. I really enjoy the videos you guys do and have worked on doing the stretches. Hang in there.
Bob,
It’s September 1, 2023 and I am just seeing this as I told my sister about you and want to find a video to share with her.
Your channel has been my go to channel for years whenever I need help.
You are handling this with such dignity and grace. I will be honored to pray for all of your listeners who need it most, but also will be praying for you.
Godspeed 🙏🏽
This brought tears to my eyes. You’ve helped millions of people who sometimes had no where else to turn to. I am one of them. God bless you always. You have set a very positive, helpful and hopeful example for others. You will have an abundance of prayers and positive vibes surrounding you. Thank you for sharing this with us. Thank you for all you do!
As someone who was recently diagnosed with MS after 13+ years of symptoms, and has been helped enormously by your channel with gait and spasticity issues (and more), I will definitely be praying for you, Bob! Thank you for sharing your diagnosis with us.
Lifting you up in my prayers Melissa. 🙏🏻
Thank you 😊!
I don’t care if Bob has to hold up signs or tell Brad what to say, I’ll still be watching the videos. You’ve helped me with my back and neck, so you got my prayers to a hearing God.
Exactly. They are both gems and we don't want Bob dumped on the scrap heap (i know he wouldn't be) but there's no Bob and Brad without Bob!
I just saw this yesterday and Bob's story has been on my mind. I'm a retired PT and I occasionally watch Bob and Brad for the fun, advice and common sense. One of the great aspects of being a PT is learning from amazing colleagues. Bob your courage and fortitude is an example not only for your family but also for your fans on the internet. I've learned from you. God bless.
I’ve also been diagnosed with cerebellar ataxia, it ended my military career. My doctors tell me to keep working out. I have and my balance is better and my condition is stable. Keep fighting brother!
Sending prayers for ALL who need them. This is my #1 go to place for helpful information, keep up the good work 👏 you two. Sending luv 💓
God bless you 🙌 Prayers going out to you 🙏🏽 ❤️
Was it the gluten?
Stay strong, stay the course, never give up. Thank you for all you've done for me. You have helped me many times.
@@mfuller3172 what can I do about my back surgery and related issues? Thank you.
I noticed too and did worry it was a stroke. You are in my prayers Bob for strength and a speedy recovery. 🙏 ❤️
You, obviously, don't know what having had a stroke looks like!

Thank you
I burst into tears when YOU sent prayers to US. Bob, you are the sweetest man and you two bring so much joy and hope to so many people. We love you!!!!

Bob, you're a sweetheart, not a mess! And you now have 4.93 Million subscribers -- wow!! What a sweet message from both of you. I'm just seeing this, a year after you posted it. I love you & Brad, you have helped my SI Joint issues SO much, due to ONE move you taught me that changed everything! You will be in my prayers, Bob, & as you asked, I'll also pray for your followers who are suffering. I am SO glad you'll still be doing videos, & I pray you'll be able to continue for years to come! I'm having shoulder issues, & came back to get your advice on that. Should've kept watching, should never have stopped. God bless you both. Take good care!
I am a speech language pathologist and wish you the best. Your daughter is right on target, keep videoing, and be the example so many people need. Disability should not isolate you. Love you guys!
Two of the nicest guys on the internet. This is the first time I’ve noticed Bob’s ailment. Your challenges Bob makes me even more dedicated to your channel. I pray for you and your followers.
Prayers for you, Bob! You’ve both helped me so much. I pray for your full return to health. Thanks for soldiering on and continuing the videos. We’ll be watching and learning from you!
Me, too (first time I noticed it). Wishing him the best and glad he will continue to make the videos with the other guy.
Praying for brother Bob,the guys whom took my shoulder pains of 10 years away, lifting you up to God.
I've watched and learned a lot from you guys as a college student. Now, I'm a registered physical therapist. I pray you'd continue to stay strong, Bob. And more power to your team. ❤
Bob, just because you’re having problems, that doesn’t take a way from your knowledge of your profession and your desire to help others with physical therapy 👍🏼 Keep on working at getting better. My prayers are up for you.🙏🏼
I'm a physical therapist and love you guys, you've helped many. I often refer people to your videos. Bob there's no reason for you to stop, you're wonderful!
My son is also a PT and I have sent him your channel. You guys are funny, informative and very interesting to watch. Prayers for you Bob.
Agree! Keep going. You're still helping me!
I concur.
Bob, I'm 73 and have CP. It affects my speech and coordination. My advice is to keep on doing what you're doing as long as you enjoy doing it. Of all the issues with CP for me the hardest to deal with was my speech impairment. I earned a MA in rehab counseling and during my career I served adults and children with developmental disabilities.
Years ago one of my co-workers said something to me that really helped me put things into perspective. I don't remember how we got onto the subject but we were talking about my speech impairment. He told me that to him my speech impairment was no different than if a had a foreign accent. We then started laughing comparing it to the doctors from foreign countries we knew who had accents and that it didn't hold them back at all. Yes, people will make assumptions but it helped me to think of it that way. I hope it helps you too. Wishing you the best always.
you sound like my friend Bob segalman, PhD
My wife and I wish Bob the best, and we have benefitted from your channel. We are sending up prayers for him now. God bless.
Dearest Bob, I'm sure you feel your body betrayed you, but know that your openess and sharing will help many many others. Please keep making videos. We can live with speech problems.
I strongly agree with the plea to keep speaking! It so helps bring awareness, and you never know who you might help with their own journey. Thank you Bob, for being willing to share this with the world. Best of wishes for you, your family, loved ones, and Brad 😘😘
Totally agree!
1000%! Beautifully said! We are SO with you in support & at the same time, await more educational, funny, intelligent, silly, and ALWAYS valuable content!
I second that (or third) as well! Wishing you the best.
This brought tears to my eyes! You both have helped me so much and I often share your videos. I even sing your jingle 😉 I am a Christian and a strong believer in the power of prayer!! You will definitely be on my prayer list, Bob. May God guide you as you navigate these uncertain waters, He knows the way!!
Thank You Lisa! Your response brought me to tears of gratitude. I’m Bob’s age and have my challenges.
Lisa C ,your comment was lovely.
I have been watching "Bob and Brad" videos for quite a few years and always get so much out of them. Thank you for your courage in sharing your health problems Bob. Once again you show us how it's done Bob. Keep on truckin'. 🙂
Thank you!
I only learned about bob's health problems with the new vid today, it's crazy how much it has affected him over only a year, but I hope he can still be a part of the video/social media or at least have some background role so he doesn't have to completely give up what he loves doing!
Praying for you, Bob, and everyone in the audience. I think we all have “something” going on and we can all use prayers. Hugs!
Prayers and blessings to you as well!!
Thanks!
You have the right attitude and the best people around you to make the best of this situation. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Bob, you and Brad feel like family so I'm glad you're not dealing with ALS, MS, or PD. I'm glad your daughters can help you. And of course, your old buddy Brad will be doing his part as well. We look forward to upcoming videos.
Hang in there, Bob! We are all pulling for you.
Your videos help me so much. Never give up. Doctors PRACTICE medicine. They don’t know everything! We love you and all you do. God knows what is happening. You’ve got this🙏
Thank you 😊!
I concur!
Been watching u both since my late 30's,u guys are awesome,once I watched 1 clip I was hooked 1 hr later I was still listening & stil am to this very day...wil certainly miss you Bob,🙏
We love you BOB! Get well soon! Prayers going out to everyone who suffers!
Lots of prayers for you, Bob! We’re all rooting for you!
You two. I hope you know how much you’re loved and respected. Your integrity, knowledge, and generosity, the way you work together, it’s all a shining light in a world that has gotten pretty messy. Thank you for being you, for still showing integrity. You want others to face their adversities and do what they can, and you are doing the same. You ARE blessings to each of us. I’m praying for you-and as you requested, for your patients and audience too. We’re with you for the long haul, brothers.
Couldn’t agree more with your beautiful words
BOB; you are very loved and respected…..
My brother recently suffered a severe stroke and I sent him a plaque and it stated, “this was something he was going through but not who he was”. You are my most favorite physical therapists and I’m pretty sure that you’re the most famous because the Internet said so.
I wanted to stop by and say, I am currently a truck driver, and have worked in factories and warehouses for years. I first found you guys, about seven years ago, when I was terrified that I was going to become disabled due to severe back pain. For a very long time now, I have come to this channel for serious wrist pain, leg pain, shoulder pain and even after an injury. You guys have been my go to guys for a lot of different problems over the years. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the work you do and the help you have given me and so many others. Just knowing that there were things I could do to improve my health, also saved me lots of anxiety, worry and major stress. I wish you guys the best for many more years to come and can never thank you enough for all that you do.
i’m praying for you🥸👍🏽
I love you both, and Bob, you are in my prayers. Hugs to you. 💙
Love you two. have turned many many people on to you to help themselves w/o surgery.!!! Visualization Bob.
When I had a motorcycle accident 2020 I saw your Chanel and you guys helped me and inspired me.
God bless you Bob and Brad.
Thank you.
Your stoicism, positive attitude and openness about your condition aren't only inspirational , they're reassuring.
I’m learning that everyone has something they’re dealing with, no one is exempt from the human condition. God bless you, Bob, and restore your health so you can continue to help millions! I’ll be praying for you.
You are very right. I have been having health issues for some yrs now, and have been isolating myself from people I know, off course thinking their lives are perfect and mine is not. Recently I touched base with most of them, to let them know my Mom passed. I was very surprised to hear what they have been dealing with. Even more worse than me. I learnt just like you`ve said, everyone has something they are dealing with.
Ditto and I am praying too. You guys have helped me so much.
@@sandrabrouillette2846 🤗💞💌💝🙏
Bob, everyone has something they’re struggling with. I have physical problems and since my husband died, emotional challenges too. Seeing you face your challenges gives everyone the courage and the will to keep going. I am praying for you and for everyone for health and healing of body, mind and spirit.
Amen ! 🙏🏻
This made me cry so hard. I recently suffered a pretty bad meniscus root tear and while I was waiting for workers comp to approve my surgery so i could walk again ( 7months total )your videos helped me to bring my pain down tremendously! It saddens me how fragile the human body is and that anyone can get hurt or anything at any moment .
Love you bob 🩷🙏🏽🫶🏽
Bob, we got you in our hearts! Together, we’ll face what comes. Prayers for you and all who need the positive vibes. We love you! You too, brad.
Wishing you and your family the absolute best as you work to manage your diagnosis with ataxia ❤️❤️❤️
I love you both! Mr Bob is doing a wonderful job he has plenty of support he can do it he will overcome this! Foods that are nourishing to the gut and brain will help. Yes allergy testing is very important you can get tested for food allergies not just gluten there are many out there. But this brings the inflammation down. Thank you guys for all your hard work and encouraging others they can do it too! Praying for you Mr Bob! ❤️🙏 The Lord bless you more!
So sweet of you to ask for prayers for other people, love the way you two pick each other up. Stay positive.
Thank you Bob and Brad for your videos. My prayers from Mozambique. God bless you
I spent 11.5 years volunteering in a free medical/dental clinic supported by two church's. My role? I prayed with patients. You have prayers 🙏 🙏 coming your way!!
Amen!!! God Bless you for the service you have provided to all those you came in contact with! To God be the glory!!!
@@-Cece thank you
Well Bob, looks like you’ve got a specialist praying for you! 😉 And I’m willing to bet he’s got some praying friend as well! With so many of us praying for you, I’d say you’re in the hands of folks who are faithfully willing to lay you at the feet of the highest Physician you could hope to have. ♥️🙏🏼
I'm a retired physical therapist and have sent many of your videos to friends who have benefited from your expertise. So I thank you both very much. I am also a believer in the Great Physician Jesus and am praying for His healing touch on your body, Bob. And may your spirit and optimism remain strong!
Amen brother!
Amen!! Prayers
Amen!✝️❤️🙌
Bob, I know it’s scary to lose functions or having impaired functions. I was just diagnosed with Parkinson’s,but now I say, “ I have a healthy body with a little a Parkinson’s”. I will pray for you and all of us followers of the two most famous physical therapists on the internet🥳! Brad, thanks for being such a good friend to Bob💜
God bless you, I hope you're coping well with Parkinson's Disease, and may this message find you in good spirits.
Look up Dr. Sten Ekberg on YT and see what advice he has for treating Parkinson's. Blessings!
I'm a PTA, and have enjoyed your vids for years now. I was surfing UA-cam, and saw Bob with another Brad, and was like what the heck. When I googled why I found this vid. Know that I am thinking of you and sending good thoughts your way. Thank you for all your great vids.
This video is so powerful. Bob explaining what the challenge is, and what it ISN'T. Brad being a calm, still snarky, friend cheering his buddy on. What a great model of helpful, healing relationship. Thanks, you famous internet physical therapists!
“My greatest pleasure in life has been serving you.” Tear. We appreciate you both.
Hello Stacy
How are you doing today?
Praying for your healing, Bob and all those suffering with this disease. Stay strong! You guys are the best! 🙏🏾
Coming back to Bob and Brad after 18 months and finding this. Thank you for your commitment and passion. It's a good decision to continue to do the videos -- the benefits to the community can never be overstated.
I wish you will overcome this and keep serving this world.
Bob - Its wonderful to have you back, Brad was looking lonely without you! I"m glad to see your sense of humor hasn't been affected. Sending love and positive vibes to you and everyone you help with this channel!
Your boyish enthusiasm has endeared you to the hearts millions. We love and appreciate all that you do. Best wishes to you and your family. Oh, we like Brad too 🤪
Thank you!
I, like your daughter, am also a speech language pathologist. Over the last 40 years, I’ve worked with a number of patients who have had speech difficulties such as yours. There are many compensatory strategies that your daughter will teach you that you will be able to implement to help make your speech more intelligible. What luck that you have an SLP right in the family! All the best.
Prayers! ❤ I’m in my 30s and was diagnosed with axial spondyloarthritis and for a few months have been unable to walk without a walker and I can say from experience praying for other people while I’m hurting has been an amazing blessing! Turning complaining into a blessing on someone else has helped so much! ❤
Thank you for watching!
Bob:
Your integrity in letting your followers know your diagnosis speaks volumes about who you are as a person. #respect #admiration #positivity.
Thank you 😊!
Bob, you have been a blessing to us for years. Now it’s our turn to help you. Prayers to God is what we do on a daily basis. You are now on our prayer list. May God continue to bless you.
Thank you!
I have a very large group of prayer warriors and we are standing on the Word of God for you! “ by Jesus wounds you were healed at the Cross!”
@@grammy1301 Amen, Grammy..... your army has just grown.
What a blessing that you were aware and treated patients with ataxia, and that your daughter can help you! Will be praying ♥️
Sending positive vibes to Bob, your determination will keep you going. Thank you for your videos and help over the years. All the best to everyone out there who are seeking help too.
I appreciate that
I really appreciate your candor, Bob and Brad. I know this can't be easy. I will pray for you because a prayer for you will mean prayers for all your patients who come to you for help and benefit from your care.
Bob - I have Ataxia too! For me it's genetic so I always knew I might inherit it. It's very rare, so thank you so much for sharing your story and spreading awareness about Ataxia!
My family has the gene. We have at least a dozen members that have ataxia. We were all (those who wanted to be) tested I was one of the lucky ones. I am 66 and keep active daily my cousin the same age has It. Her speech, balance motor skills are very much effected. I count my blessings everyday. God bless you!
God Bless you Julie...

Bob and Brad have helped me so much with all my physical pain. You guys are the best!! Both of you help so many people and we all thank you so much. Love your sense of humor!! Of course seeing this video was because I came to your channel to see the utube video on neck pain and pinched nerve to refresh my memory of the excercises that I had seen last year and came across this video of bobs struggles. So sorry you’re going through this and I will keep you in my prayers. Take care. ❤️
Yes Amen sending healing prayers in the name of Jesus 🙏

We love you Bob and we love and respect Brad for being the Bro everyone of us aspires to be. What a dynamic duo!
Praying for Bob and anyone who suffers from this. ❤❤
How can one even begin to express how touching and impressive this video is? Bob is being so brave with his honesty and openness. And Brad is, as always, such an empathic person. I started watching you guys when I was stuck inside during the pandemic and you have become like real friends to me. I have bought several of your products and have recommended you to others who might benefit from all you give to the watchers. And, the word "give" is noteworthy - how many others on the Internet share similar things but expect payment. You have gone above and beyond with kindness and generosity. Bob, we are all right with you - hoping for the best outcome in this difficult situation. Thank you, guys and God bless you both.
OMG, if people don't understand this sad diagnosis, then stop watching. You are both so great and have given people help in their lives. Stay strong ❤
We can still watch and be sympathic even if we do not fully understand
@annettecantu3826 - I was referring to those people who are were making unkind comments without understanding the disease.
Sending prayers and love and healing to you Bob.
Much Love! 💕
We love you both! Sending love and prayers to all on need. I went gluten-free (and dairy and sugar-free) to treat a digestive disorder that was causing debilitating symptoms, then took a probiotic to reset my gut floral, and have improved so much. I haven’t had so much as a cold for a couple years. It doesn’t hurt to switch to a healthier diet to support the body’s healing systems.
You guys are LEGENDs - you've taught how to work through problems your whole career so I think this is the best way to deal with it. You've fixed my fingers in the past and my shoulder. Currently it is my knee. Will be praying for you mate! Mark
Lol fancy seeing you here! Gaming is a dangerous sport
You are legends too Mark and Glen. Love how great and big your channel has got, been there since early :)
Best crossover ever SwitchUp + Bob and Brad 💙
You are not stupid. You are strong and amazing and thoughtful. Thank you for being there in helping me. You can stagger and speak "tongue tied" all you like I will certainly keep watching with many prayers for you and others
Prayers for you Bob! You both have helped me and my family through so many pains and injuries- we are so grateful and we pray for your recovery and your strength and give thanks for your heart and generosity and talent through the years! 💜 🙌🏼
The both of you have helped me in my journey. A few years ago I was very lucky to survive a very large brain aneursym (two brain surgeries), and just a few months ago I had a stroke. Watching you has helped me physically and mentally with your sense of humour and great outlook on life. My advice to you Bob, keep a positive outlook. It took me seven years to learn to read again. Never give up!
An inspiring commentary on persistence! God’s blessings to you.
Wow! You are one inspiring dude x
What a blessing to have your daughter in the speech therapy field. Prayers for your quick healing and the doctors wisdom to solve it.
Amen 🙏🏼
Bob, you bring us laughter, pain relief and knowledge everyday. Our hearts and prayers are with you to continue to improve and be an inspiration to so many.
Thank you!
Truly sad to hear Bob is unwell. These are ironies of fate that a person who had helped millions of people to improve their health condition falls a victim to ill health himself. We can feel his ( including Brad) genuine desire to reach out to a helping hand to many unknown people. - something rare in this highly commercialised world. I am reminded of the Buddhist concept of 'impermanence.'I am certain he will not lose his good cheer. WE pray for you Bob.
thank you very much, this is very much appreciated!
awww Bob and your daughter being a speech pathologist! Bob being here as he is, no pretending, fully human - that's everything, thank you!
Bob I hope that anytime you feel overwhelmed by the situation, you come here to read how loved and appreciated you are. Brad too! Thank you for the years of ongoing support you’ve given to the world! Love, resilience, and wellness wished upon you and your loved ones, along with those who’ve looked to you for help. ❤
My prayers and best wishes go out to Bob, his loved ones, and everyone else living with Ataxia!
Thank you!
Praying for you Bob.Lord please put your hand on Bob. All honor and praise are yours Lord. We glorify your name. Amen
