      Personally I've enjoyed every Charming Abode video that I've watched. I love your decor style and how you make home look so welcoming. I also like keeping up with your and Jason's journey with his diagnosis, and seeing how you both face the future with faith in Jesus. I mean, in every difficult situation, He is our only hope, and you both have admitted your reliance on Him. I've enjoyed your summer/fall journey with your new room. I hope you stay encouraged and keep your channel. I think it's the perfect mix. Love and prayers to you both! 🙏 🥰

    P.S. Leslie and Jason - you are a LIFESTYLE channel. And we love watching you. We learned 18 months ago that my husband, Joe, has Lewy Body Dementia (he was 67 at the time). That’s originally how I found your channel, too. The decor lessons are icing on the cake. And Joe watches your shows with me. He listens to Jason especially and sometimes will look at me and say, “He’s right.” Thank you!

    • @herewego1115
      @herewego1115 Рік тому +5

      I like the idea od keeping both aspects of the channel as long as they both are comfortable doing so and calling it a LIFESTYLE channel is a great idea. That could cover so many things. We love ❤️ both of them. This was a great post.

    • @DC-rd6oq
      @DC-rd6oq Рік тому +1

      I totally agree. LIFESTYLE is perfect. And if y'all decide to go "Kerouac" it would fit in perfectly.😀 BTW, although I know who Jack Kerouac is/was, I've never heard the term kerouac used quite the way Jason just used it. I love it.

      @LynsAlteredArts Рік тому

      I watch all your videos whether they’re home decor or dementia and I bet a lot of people do. However, you could just do a separate Vlog channel to do the dementia videos and keep a charming abode simply home decor. I wonder if having the dementia separate would drive more traffic to those videos.

    I HATE that UA-cam "punishes" creators for having variety on their channel. I watch people for their personality and the connection I feel like I have with them. I actually prefer it when different types of topics are presented. I hope you find a way to continue just as you would like to.

    @trishcoughlin6365 Рік тому +83

    As someone who has no idea how being a UA-camr works, requirements you need to fulfill or scrutiny from the channel you have … I can tell You I came for the decor and stayed because of the combination of decor and dementia awareness. I think your addition of your journey with dementia has not only enhanced but strengthened my interest in your channel and hope you don’t leave either behind.

    Leslie, your sweet personality and Jason's comedic wit is what makes this channel so appealing. I like the home decor videos as well as the updates on Jason. Nothing in life stays the same forever so if you want to tweak your channel content - then go for it. I'm sure most of your subs will stick around and you'll likely have some channel growth too. Do whatever is best for you and Jason and be at peace with whatever you decide.

  • @beachysands4036

    I just wanted to let you know. My wife has been watching your Chanel for quite awhile now. Just over a year ago I got so ill that going to work was just harder and harder every week. It got to the point that I just couldn’t work anymore. Shortly later I was told that I will need a heart transplant. I understand that our situation is different than yours. But my wife was telling me about Jason so I watched one of the videos with him in it. That day I subscribed to your channel and watched all the videos involving Jason. He has been such a inspiration to me and you to my wife as a caregiver. Thank you for sharing your story and showing your faith in the Lord. God bless.

    @littlemissshihtzu Рік тому +16

    One of your loyal and lovely viewers told me about your channel because I have shared on my dog channel that my mom sadly suffers from Lewy Body Dementia. Please don’t quit UA-cam! I think you are doing a beautiful job covering BOTH décor and dementia. None of us are simply about one thing - we are dynamic as people with varying interests and UA-cam should embrace this. It’s so ironic that your video today addresses being more than one subject matter because my latest video is more about my mom’s dementia than it is about our rescue dog, but the two are very much tied together since her diagnosis is what inspired us to welcome a dog into our lives. I went with my heart even though I know it might hurt me from an analytics perspective. I love your comment about letting the Lord lead you! That's what I'm trying to do as well! ❤🙏

    I watch your channel for you Leslie! I do enjoy home decor/renovations & we have a family member with dementia- so those two avenues fit. But I also think I would watch you travel, shop, cook - do anything. You are charming in your abode! Idea: would love to see some decorations for Christmas with lighting - the small light strings w/batteries in wreaths especially! Also, how to prepare for lots of guest for dinner. Sounds trivial, but it’s hard!!! Keep up the great work!

  • @ThePerilousTimes12
    @ThePerilousTimes12 Рік тому +10

    I found your channel looking for information about my husband‘s condition. At the time, I wasn’t even watching very much about home decor because I was so worried about him. But even though my husband and I have really appreciated learning about this topic of early onset dementia and have since gotten our own diagnosis for him, I find inspiration seeing that you can branch out and do something else in your life with your husband as well. I enjoy seeing what you do with your home and how it brings you happiness and gives you a functional diversion from the devastation dementia brings. Please keep on keeping on!! ❤

  • @karolhenderson8888

I am not really into home decor (I started watching to learn more about Lewey Body Dementia) but I have stayed because you have a way of making us feel a part of your lives. And anytime you run out of ideas, I can always use an organizational video! Closets one week, kitchen cabinets and drawers another week, and we haven’t seen that glorious storage space in your attic for a while!

    @sandrawhitney8903 Рік тому +25

    I hear you saying that it’s harder to share decorating ideas when the major seasons are passed. Also, that UTube has suggested that you do one or the other. Being a care taker takes SO much emotional energy, the fact that you’ve decided to quit your job to stay home is huge! All this being said I love your channel and look forward to it. You asked for some ideas so here’s a few: Decorating for New Year, Valentines Day, Flag Day Memorial Day, 4th of July, baby showers, wedding showers, preparing the guest room for guests, a variety of napkin folds, just a few ideas. It’s good to hear how your doing with care taking, including the struggles. You’re not alone so you touch many who are in a similar situation. The bottom line is you need to take care of yourself so that you can care for Jason. I’ll be praying that God will guide you in the direction that is best for both you and Jason. Blessings❤️

    Honestly, interior design shows are a dime a dozen on UA-cam. What’s interesting about your channel is you take it to a more personal level by including Jason and his diagnosis, your travels and being willing to share your incredibly cute family with us! Seriously, I watch your channel every week. Also, your last episodes about your room addition included both Jason and home design.👍Online shopping is tricky for me and I wouldn’t mind more tips on how to navigate websites like Wayfair, for example. How to make the best use of their filters while shopping.

    I do not know what I would do without you two! I can't wait for your new video every week. I stumbled upon your channel about a year and a half ago for the decorating. To my surprise I discovered you addressed dementia as well. My husband has early onset Alzheimer's in his 50's. I felt so alone because there isn't much out there for younger people with dementia. You guys gave me hope and joy. You encourage me and my husband. The bonus is that I love to decorate as well! Leslie you do a wonderful job at that. Your joy and sweetness is so refreshing. Jason's comedy and honesty is so enjoyable. I can see how intelligent you are Jason and it breaks my heart this disease is robbing you of a full healthy life. You "guys" are like friends to me, but you have to do what's best for your life.
    Summers you could do organizing, day in the life, dyi, Christmas in July with grandkids. Just some suggestions.
    You have a gift and are using it. Thank you for sharing. Blessings

Along with Jason showing up with his serious and funny side. I watch you a lot just to hear Jason’s updates on LBD. We have a friend who has it and I want to learn more about it. You both have helped educate us on that. Please don’t stop doing things the way you are. They have worked. Thank you both.

I love the fact that you are able to show how easy, and reasonable it is to decorate, and also include your and Jason’s journey with dementia. It’s amazing to me that you are able to it all. As far as I’m concerned, there is no conflict between the two areas. You are mainly home decor but with the human element in sharing your life. Just keep doing what you’re doing.

    I like all your videos, but I think my favorites are when you show tablescapes. Tablescape Tuesdays during the down times would be fun. Just every day ones that aren’t part of a holiday or season, with things you already have, would be fun.
    If you decide to split into two channels, I would subscribe to both.
    I’ve found myself enjoying channels that don’t really follow trends as much, but just show what they like and show their own personalities and style. The two of you seem like people we all would like to be in a small group or Sunday school class with. 😊💛
    Edited to add that I would never try to tell you what to do with your channel, but since you asked for us to tell you what we like the most, I thought you would enjoy positive feedback.
    I hope it came across as encouragement. 💛

    I love you guys and your channel…It wouldn’t matter if you filmed going to the grocery store! You’re genuine, entertaining and a joy to follow. Your love and respect for each other is a true testament to the sacrament of marriage. Life is a constantly changing journey and we need to adapt to those changes. Best wishes for whatever path you choose and for your time ahead with Jason’s illness but most of all, thank you for allowing us to follow you the last three years…it’s been a joy!

    Hi Leslie and Jason, I started watching your videos re dementia because I don’t seasonally decorate anymore now that I’m old. You and Jason are so wonderful together and I love your honesty and your love for our Lord. I don’t know the ins and outs of making channels for UA-cam but perhaps separating them would work better for you. Perhaps put out a video once a quarter re the dementia and the others however often you do them. I especially loved the addition to your home and the progress of the work it takes to get to the finish line. I watch those kinds of videos on HGTV all the time. Now I want to see the progress on your back yard! Keep up the great work, you are wonderful to watch!

    It is so good to see real life melded into the journey with Jason. Sad that UA-cam wants to buttonhole you into one aspect of your life. Thanks for the sharing of both of the topics. Seems the decorating provides a diversion from the dementia aspect. It's all very real, and that is so positive. Thanks, Leslie, for sharing all you do.

    I found your channel because of Jason. I am a caregiver (12 years) for my husband. The last of his major health issues is vascular dementia. I then discovered your other content area videos on decorating your home. I will follow you on both programs if you split the content areas into two programs.
    As you are well aware dementia is the umbrella term for all types of memory issue diagnoses. But for the care giver the day-to-day care and ombudsman issues don't differ all that much. The conversations you have with Jason deal with pertinent issues for all of us who care for a person with memory issues. I have laughed and cried with, and for you and me because of your unvarnished (pun intended) and authentic content. Please do not disappear.

    I hope that you don't stop your channel, but I know you have to do what y'all need. I absolutely love your kindness and in general your personality. You can always expand and do other things you enjoy in the slow months. Day in the life, crafting, cleaning, homemaking, and cooking (I know Jason did the cooking). Well, I'm saying you could pretty much do anything and I'd watch. I pray God's will for you and Jason.

I pray you continue sharing as the Lord leads.I pray for you and thank God for the blessing you two are to families living through dementia and for those of us who may someday face these challenges. I doubt I'm alone when I say I feel like we are friends and I look forward to our time with you both. Blessings and lots of love, Mona

I would love to see more videos about every day decorating on a budget where you show how to dupe high end looks. I'm also interested in seeing how you store decor, make new looks with the same pieces and generally rotate decor. Best wishes with whatever you decide to do.

I enjoy the decor part but I also like to hear from dementia from y’all. My husband has been diagnosed with depression and he is having bad issues with his short term memory. You both are a source of encouragement and knowledge on dementia. Prayers for you both. 😊❤😊🙏

    Really like having both aspects to the channel. Our lives are multi-focused so why not a multi-focused channel? Leslie, your decor style and tips are inspiring and my hubby has some similar but different issues as Jason so I appreciate you guys sharing that as well. In the long run, do what you enjoy and if it’s Kerouac-ing more power to you! God bless!

I really liked your earlier DIY projects with the candles and the table you made for Jason. I love to watch you clean out your garage and get it organized and orderly. You have a lot of knowledge and I enjoy your tips and tricks. You are down to earth and approachable. Thank you for sharing your life with us!

Praying for you both for God's strength and peace in your journey.
    Keep it all coming. But I hope that you never feel like it is a burden.

    What makes your channel so great Leslie is that you Do have both aspects. Your love story with Jason and the education about Lewy Body Dementia that both you and Jason (hi Jason)generously share with us and then the joy and beauty of your decorating. It portrayes such a depth of integrity and character that you both have in life as well as the importance of being joyful, laughing and cooking while enjoying everyday life creating beautiful surroundings. The two together seem like a perfect balance that touch our souls and spirit. We adore and love you and Jason and genuinely want to learn and know how both of you are doing. We never know what could happen in our own families or with friends where life changes. I think this channel is a precursor to handling life with compassion, education, helping others see the real ups and downs in life. This helps us all to not feel alone when life changes and we have two wonderful authentic human beings lighting the way so we can handle situations that come our way with dignity. We get to send love and prayers to you both. Your channel is sacred. Please continue this channel as long as it is still good for you both. Whenever you think you need to stop then we respect and understand. Then we are left with a wealth of knowledge, wisdom and love. We love you both and thank you deeply.

    Hi Leslie and Jason! I like your channel the way it is! As far as the home decor side goes, you're so good at decorating, I bet you could decorate with just about anything! Maybe you could use the slow Summer months to take us on scavenging trips to nearby thrift/antique stores or yard sales, teach us how to recognize and repurpose ordinary odds and ends that you find into some new creation we can use for a utilitarian purpose or as decoration.
