      Amen. The complete opposite to Bert Kreischer. He would've been interrupting everything with stories he's told a thousand times before. Ryan is special when it come to allowing people to tell their stories.

      Yeah, Altzheimers sucks. My Grandma at the end of her life was in a special facility for Alzheimer patients, where they could go where they want, do what they want and were taken care of till the end. We still visited here but her mental an physical state were declining rapidly. The hard thing is to accept the disease, to accept that your loved one isnt going to remember you or the other members of the family. But you still remember and you still can tell her all these things.

    My grandfather has Alzheimer’s and just recently had a stroke. My grandma just beat her second bout with Chemotherapy from ovarian cancer, they require a full time care taker and I try to fill in as much as I can. Life can always be worse, having to see them in such a state reminds me to take care of myself and enjoy the fact that I can do so much even minute things like go for a walk on a sunny day. It’s such a humbling experience. I’m such a big fan of Yanni and even more so after having him share this!

    My brothers and I went through the same thing Yannis went thru. It’s crazy because me and Yannis are about the same age and both from Brooklyn. The only difference in my experience was I refused to put my mom in a home. She passed peacefully in the home she raised me in. All the feelings of guilt, anger, and frustration….you will feel all those things. Now I’ve definitely reconciled my guilt because like Yannis said, we’re only human and you have to put on the oxygen mask first, before you can help you’re loved one. I appreciate Yannis really digging deep on his experience and describing the emotional toll he went through. My brothers and I definitely relate. From one fellow New Yorker to another, wishing many blessings and prosperity to you Yannis. Plus, love your special….top tier comedy. 💪🏾

    Wow...heart wrenching, Yannis. Saw this up close and personal with my grandpa. Thankful he was cheerful through the end, but what a terrible, awful disease.

    My grandmother is 5+ years into dementia. It’s wrecked my mom at times and just been generally difficult on all of us. Thanks for talking about this, Yanni. It’s genuinely valuable for folks experiencing it.
