Thanks so much. I hope so...it was a difficult video to make but realized that if even a handful of people could learn from our experience then it would be worth it and my father would be proud.
I'm so sorry about the loss of your mom and dad. My dad just passed too from Covid. I never thought he would die from Covid. I'm in shock. I miss him. I did get to spend 4 days with him sharing nothing but love. For that I am grateful.

Thanks for sharing. My mom died from COVID on 5/6/20 after being in the hospital for three weeks. My dad is still battling his COVID disease. He is at an acute care hospital with a tracheotomy. We were told he wouldn’t recover to his same self and will need to be in a nursing home. It’s so sad for me and my siblings because like others, we weren’t able to see and talk with my mom before she died. We are able to talk with our dad, but only through FaceTime. I can’t imagine how lonely my dad feels. He’s been use to family and friends all of his life. This virus is such a big heartbreak for all families that have experienced loss.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. My husband also lost his Mom who lived in Nursing Home. She had been on no medications prior and was one of dozens who perished in her facility. Her facility moved all known “cases” to another facility designated as a Covid Center. She never had breathing problems. She had fever and off and on cough. She thankfully didn’t struggle. Lost ability to swallow. She died 2 days later. I think that most nursing homes are housing patients too closely together in rooms. We had a funeral in a funeral home with only 8 of us there. We shared her funeral on a group Zoom call with many family members including her only surviving sibling who was so grateful to see her and share wonderful memories of this special woman. We followed hearse to burial site and they agreed to drive past the Rest Home where several employees were standing holding signs of remembrance. They also drove past the home where she grew up. Surreal days indeed but her funeral and burial was beautiful.
Im so sorry for your loss. I, too, lost my dad to Covid 19. He passed on August 16. He was not in a nursing home. He got sick at work (hospitality). He spent 41 days in the hospital, 27 of them were on a ventilator. I dont wish this on anyone.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm a cancer patient and I have started to make rearrangements for my death and funeral. Thank you for making this video. No one ever thinks about what happenes after their loved ones pass.
I admire your strength to be vocal. I hope you are still able to receive proper treatment amidst all the chaos. Keep sharing your story because it is needed!
I completely understand your feelings, I lost my father last month because of the virus he was 66 , that broke my heart . He meant a lot to me, the words can't describe my feelings...
My dad who is 80 was admitted into hospital with a leg infection in Melbourne Australia. Due to Dad suffering from Dementia and mum being 76 with back issues as a result from constant lifting of my dad, the hospital care team recommended Dad be placed in transitional care whilst we search for an aged care facility. I knew then in my heart that Dad was going to be placed at a high risk. Subsequently 8 days in the transitional care facility we were informed that a patient tested positive to COVID-19. A few days later dad tested positive and we have been told to prepare for his passing in the coming days. Seeing a man that was you protector diminish into a fragile being is something I cannot explain. He now lies in his hospital bed at the transitional care facility alone in isolation with the family visiting him from the outside window as if we were visiting a zoo. I thought this virus was a joke but seeing a loved one go through what I’m now seeing is something I would not recommend. I’m glad knowing that he is listening to his favourite music as it calms and puts him at ease and am now waiting for that call, your dad has passed. What if’s pop into my head. Guilt plays a part. But I know I can’t blame myself or anybody for this. It’s a beast that decides on who it wants to take. Dad you have nothing to worry about mate. When your time comes everybody will be fine. Your will never leave as your DNA is in me . Together forever.
My condolences to you and your family. I work in a nursing home and to date we have no Covid patients. Were one of the few in the county. Eventhough our PPE is running low, we are very vigilant and come up with ideas. My coworkers and I have put in money of our pockets to purchase masks and face shields. We bought raincoats, ponchos, anything that can be used as PPE we use. We double up and if a patient goes out of the facility for a procedure at the hospital, we put the patient in isolation precautions for 2 weeks no matter what. Always checking patients vital signs every 2 hrs. I pray to GOD each and every night that the patients and staff are safe.
Sorry to hear about your father. My uncle died of covid -19. He was in a nursing home. He was found unresponsive in his bed. The nurses thought that he possibly had a stroke. He was take to the hospital Friday tested positive for covid-19. He died Sunday all family could do was video chat. He never became responsive after finding him that Friday. He also had dementia.
I am so sorry. My 85 year old Mother just passed of Covid-19. She had Alzheimer's, breast cancer and had survived 2 heart attacks. In 11 days she was gone from Covid.. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I appreciate you talking openly about this.
thank you so much. yes, it was more difficult than i thought it would be to video but I felt that it was important for others to know what is really happening out there. we all can learn how to deal with this better...and make more informed decisions.
My niece recently passed. Not able to have a typical viewing and funeral, her family arranged a memorial via Zoom, an internet conferencing app that allows a number of folks to join together in a video conference call. They had a minister officiating it, his words were short and sweet to allow time for those present to share their memories and thoughts. This also allowed friends and family who lived far away to participate where they couldnt otherwise. Everyone could see each other and time was allowed for everyone to greet one another. Funerals, like weddings, can also be family reunions. I’m sorry for your loss. You provide a valuable service and to out aside your own grief to ensure we all get value out of your own experience is incredibly generous. Thank you. Loss is never easy. And the pain doesn’t necessarily go away but over time can ease... a little. Sending you love, health, and good wishes.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I also work in nursing where Covid-19 cases are prevalence and we unfortunately lost some residents due to this virus. No one ever thinks that this could be someone's mother, father brother and how it leaves such an impact.
I too lost my father on Monday May 4. The nursing home reached out to me to let me know his blood oxygen had dropped, he had difficulty breathing and were going to give him morphine. They asked me if I wanted to see him. I raced to the nursing home, put on all the PPE they gave me, was brought into the room but he was already passed. I was hysterical. I realized later that while this last vision of him was upsetting it also gave me a kind of closure as you suggested in your video. I’m glad I was given the opportunity to go see him in person. I just hope I didn’t take too much of a risk by doing that. Condolences to your family.
I just lost my dad this past Thursday. For some reason, your video came up in my feed. Thank you for making this. May both of our fathers rest in paradise ❤🙏
From Australia, I'm so sorry for your loss. Sharing your experience was not only brave of you but selfless. Your shared experience will no doubt, be helpful for somebody else who has a loved one who is fighting this terrible virus. Bless you & bless your father.
Thank you for putting your father's face to a virus that we hear more numbers about than human grieving stories...this can be such a help to us to have compassion and dedication.
I’m so so sorry about your loss. My mom passed away in February ( not Covid-19 related) of a heart attack and cancer stage 4. My Most sincere condolences.
Thank you for sharing this. My father passed away three months ago from an aneurysm, before the heightened state of COVID-19 hit our country (Trinidad). So I know the pain of loss. May you be at peace knowing he was properly cared for and that you did your best for him during his lifetime. Also, focus on his life and not on his death. For his 89 years of life, you must have so much lovely memories by which to remember him. Peace and strength to you and your family at this time.
Oh, I'm really sorry. May your father rest in peace. My mom and me suffered from the virus and we followed your recommendations about how to improve the immune system. Thank you
thank you so much. Yes, we are still wrapping our heads around the fact that he is gone. I am happy to hear that you are feeling better!! Thank you for watching. Stay healthy and safe!
I am so sorry for your the the loss of your father. I searched videos trying to make sense of the recent deaths of two close family friends and came across yours. You are an amazing lady helping others in your time of grief. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
Nori, I am so sorry for your loss and grief. My parents are both in a nursing home and you are living what I have afraid what will happen to one or both of my parents. The nursing home has forbidden us from even going to their window to see them. Mom has called me twice, begging me to come and get her. They did have a parade for the residents yesterday and I got to see them as I drove by. Daddy couldn’t wake up to see us, even though the staff was trying their best to get him to. I broke. I just had all I could take, especially with Daddy being unable to see me there. I don’t want them to think that I have forgotten them and with dementia you don’t really know if they understand what’s going on. I am making a call to the funeral home this morning. I had thought about it before, but just didn’t do it. I am so very sorry that you are in this situation and that you have now lost both parents. Try to stay strong, but let the tears flow. They are part of the process and this was your daddy who is gone. Thank you for sharing the video.
I’m so very sorry for the lost of your parents, and I deeply regret that you and your family were not able to be at your father’s bedside. Thank God more hospitals and nursing homes are starting to allow at least one or two family members to visit their loved ones, although with some restrictions. I can’t begin to thank you enough for sharing this information even in the midst of your grief. The fall season is approaching and COVID19 cases are beginning to rise again. Families need to be prepared for death whether or not there is a pandemic. While it’s an uncomfortable conversation for most people, we all can ease the pain for our surviving families by preparing well ahead of our final time. In addition to what your video covers, I would like to mention that a living Trust, a Power of attorney for financial and medical decisions, and life insurance or prepaid memorial arrangements help tremendously in providing the family with a blueprint for the final wishes of the deceased. Some of these documents are available online ( Legal Zoom for example). And hospitals, cemeteries and insurance companies can provide some of these documents too. You may not always need an attorney. And you don’t have to be rich. In most states a Will gives little protection for assets and decisions, because Wills can be contested in court. This can create a long expensive process called Probate. This process is run by the State, so that the estate ( belongings & property) of the deceased can be divided among the family however the state feels is necessary. A separate probate process occurs in each state that the deceased owns property. This process can go on for Months or even Years. Each state deducts the cost of probate out of the estate. Thank you for helping to remind us that even a little preparation can make a huge difference for grieving families. God Bless You and Your Family. 🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss. My dad passed from this horrible virus on May 4th! He should have been around another 20 years or so. He was Healthy! I feel for you and your family!
I just lost my beautiful Mom 6 days ago to covid. She was only 56 and perfectly healthy :(. She fought hard in the hospital for 2 weeks before the virus took her life. This has been the hardest thing I’ve gone through in my entire life. We weren’t allowed to be there with her to hold her hand. We couldn’t say goodbye to her in person only over a FaceTime call. We couldn’t see her body after 😭. It is traumatizing to say the least. It doesn’t feel real.
I am so so saddened to hear this. It mirrors what happened with me and my dad. 8 months later it still feels surreal. But I do feel his presence...and you will feel your moms, forever. Just remember that she is with you still, not in physical form but in spiritual. big hugs.
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I hope he didn’t have to suffer. My heart breaks thinking you weren’t able to see him to say goodbye in person. Praying for your family. Thanks for making this video.
I am very sorry for your loss! May God bless him and have mercy on him and your whole family during these difficult times! I will pray for you and your family!
I lost my father a week ago due to COVID19. He was admitted to the hospital on May 12th, placed on a ventilator by May 13th, and passed away on May 25th. During his time in the hospital, although he was sedated, I was able to speak to him via zoom (thanks to the nurses.) I was very fortunate because I was allowed to see my father two hours before he passed away. I was able to hold his hand and speak to him before he passed away. If you have a family member in the hospital call at least once a day to get an update, ask questions, ask to see your family member even if they cannot see you!! Lastly, if you get "the call", ask if you can visit. My family was very fortunate to have an open casket viewing with a marachi band playing throughout the four hours of the wake. We laughed, cried, sang songs, and had a procession. He will be cremated within the upcoming week, in a year we will take his ashes to Mexico and bury them next to his father's grave. With all of that said, our final goodbyes wouldn't have been as meaningful if we went with another funeral homes. Several funeral homes near me were not doing any viewings/wakes, strictly cremation or burial. Please "shop around" for a great funeral home who will take care of your family and treat you like family. The funeral home director went above and beyond for my family, everything we asked for they worked their magic and made it happen. Saying your final goodbyes plays such a big role in the grieving process. Nothing will ever be the same but we received the some of the closure we needed.
HI , I'm sorry your dad passed alone without family around him. My condolences to you and your family. Thank you for sharing such intimate factual ,caring information for others to be informed with.
My condolences to you and your family. My Grandma just passed away too on September 4, 2020 from Covid-19. We are all devastated and scared. We didn’t even tell her that we loved her and thank her for taking care of us through the years. It bothers me that she died alone and scared. As I write this, I am getting the symptoms. I don’t want them leave my children behind. Lord help, heal us, and give us protection from this virus.
I'm so sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace. My grandpa died from covid 19 in a nursing home 3 months ago. And just today i found out that my dad has it too. I'm terrified about what is going to happen, i'm still quite young and my dad is only 52 years old, and very healthy. I would be destroyed if anything happened to him. May god help everyone during this nightmare of a time and not test anyone with their loved ones.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for taking the time to share your story, it takes great strength. May your dad rest in peace. Stay safe and healthy.
Not even sure how I got to your channel- but I have to say I am so sorry for this sudden loss of your dad with this monster of a virus, that cruel beyond the death of a love one. I can't even imagine the pain you and your family are going through. This video was very informative.
Modern Aging - Holistic Health and Wealth After 50, I was born in the U.S. but live in South America. My grandmother passed away today due to corona virus. She was also in a nursing home and apparently everyone in there got it. She was sent to a hospital (she has Alzheimer’s by the way) and she was doing fine for the last 5 days but her immune system just couldn’t give any more. I hope you are well and sorry for your loss. She was a great grandmother to me and I miss her a lot. We used to live in Houston and she took care of me when I was little and she loved me a lot. I hope I can talk to someone in the comments about it.
I’m so sorry. My mum died a couple of years ago too and I am so worried about my dad who I haven’t seen for a couple of months because I am in a city and he’s concerned I could bring it to the rural area he lives in. I will pray for you and your family.
Thank you for talking about death. This is not done enough. As an aged care worker trying to build my business i am subscibing on the strength of this video, and your title. My condolences for your loss and my admiration for yor strength.
My heart broke hearing your story, I wish no one has to suffer a scenario like this! May your father rest in peace. Sending love and prayers on your way!
I am so sorry for your loss. My 81 year old dad had Covid, congestion and mild fever and extreme fatigue. He never sought medical help, but had Mom seeing after him. Somehow, she never caught it (we assume she had it in December and still immune with antibodies.) He slept a lot. But recovered mostly after 2 weeks. Most ppl don't seek help, they don't even know they have it. They just assume they have a bad cold. I would have, but many friends had the same symptoms and the ones that were tested was positive. Thank you for Sharing. God Bless You and your family.
I lost my mom do to COVID the 18 of April, a healthy happy person. To this day we have no idea how she got it. Everything you said about what you feel not been able to see them is so true I thought it was only me feeling it. Thank you, you help me a lot.
My wife died From Covid after battling COVID in February and Multiple myeloma ( Cancer) she lost her life three days after thanksgiving. My life is over I lost my queen to something they don’t seem to care about. Now my father is on a vent fighting for his life. ITS NOT A POLITICAL GAME it’s real and this PAIN is real.
My condolences on this difficult time. Both my paternal grandparents passed having dementia and Alzheimer’s. It is so hard to see them part. I cannot imagine how it feels to lose them in this circumstances. I send you a hug and pray that God will comfort you and your loved ones.
I am sorry for your loss. Death of a loved one is so hard. Maybe you could you do a video about your parents, sharing photos, a little home video and tell us what their strengths were and what knowledge they were able to share with you. I think it might help people who are currently grieving, to remember the good times, though hard it may be. May you find peace.
My grandfather was just 72 and he passed away today.. i was unable to deal with the pain and shock.. thanks for this video.. may your father rest in peace❤
This whole pandemic has been horrific!!! I am praying for all those who have lost their love ones and friends!!! Thank you, for sharing!!! God Bless!!!
Thank you for taking the time to share these difficult experiences in hope to help. So sorry for the loss of your parents. May they rest in peace. Wishing you and your family peace and comfort during these difficult times.
Ian so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your deepest sorrow with us. I hope you and your loved ones remember the times your father was fun loving, courageous and the great artist and it will give you comfort in remembering how much he loved you.
My dad just passed away yesterday in a Nursing Home in Miami Beach. He just turned 89 this month and had alzheimer and haven't seen him since March. He was a healthy man and died from covid-19. If I could only touch his hand and kiss him goodbye for the last time...I love you papa!
That was a very powerful video to watch. I so admire you for making it. My reaction other than sympathy is anger. Anger for what you and your father went through. Anger at our primitive country opening up too soon. Anger at friends of mine who aren't adhering to stay at home guidelines and not social distancing even though one of them is a nurse at a nursing home, anger at the President who did next to nothing to provide aggressive coordination across the 50 states and Puerto Rico. It's like we are in a diseased culture, a fanasty nightmare movie we can't escape from. I get some strength to do my part and get more strength watching folks like you. Very very sorry for your loss.
I also lost my hero... he was healthy otherwise... but he passed away from Covid -12/02/20... at the age of 70!!!! He was not in a facility.. he was living in his own home caring for my little 7 year old niece. I also knew of the high rates of the elders, but somehow I also didn’t think my day would become a victim. Within 18 days, of him getting diagnosed he passed away... please please, I beg of you.... take care of your elders... my dad chose comfort care since the doctors said he was not a candidate of lung transplant, or eckmo, or anything else...... they said, if he chose the ventilator, he’ll be dependent on it until we have to disconnect him..... so my dad made the painful choice. I will forever live with the guilt of not taking my dad out, of visiting more, or calling him more... I cannot do anything anymore.... he’s gone.... but if you have your parents, please connect with them more. Create special bonds because I was too consumed with my life with kids, home , college app’s, etc..that I left out my own dad... please don’t judge me... I’m already suffering every single minute that goes by. Take care and May God bless you.
I just want to say I am deeply sorry for your loss and I hope that you overcome your guilt. You loved your dad and he knows that. You could've done more and still will find a way to feel guilty, because you love your dad. I just lost my husband from Covid/Cancer and I was with him 24/7 for the past 10 years and during every breath he took till he past, but yet, I feel guilty, maybe I could've done this or that, or shouldn't have done this or that and everyday suffer from the feeling of guilt. Nobody is perfect and will feel guilty for anything because we love that person so deeply and that person is gone. So please try to find a way for you to feel better about yourself, because I am sure your father would be happier if you are happy. I am in a process of doing that for myself.
@@SL-fz3ex Thank you for your kind words. After 9months, the pain is still there, but I move forward by remembering our happy days, when he’d take us out every Friday to Taco Bell, jimmy jacks, and to Kmart to get those soggy subways.😆 . My dad would always help me on those science projects doing the volcano, got cooler pump and created the lava effect,…. He was awesome! I do that with my own children too… 6 months before he passed away on my nephew’s 18th birthday, he made a speech. It was as if he knew he’d pass away. Asked for for forgiveness for all his wrong-doings etc, for always working, not giving us the love we deserved . My sister and I had forgiven him years ago and completely understood him. Have you ever heard: “Cats in the cradle “-- that was us but my dad and I had our own bond. Yes, I could have made more time for him….. he’d deserved it…. He never abandoned us. He was a family man without bad habits. He did not bring his friends to our house. My dad raised my sister alone while my mom left and came…. There are many mornings, while I’m dropping the boys of to school, that I scream in the van crying for my dad… wondering why he left so suddenly.. why did god take him… wondering if I could x years of my life just to hug, kiss, talk to him, I probably would.. When the doctors told us, he would die with comfort… I understood it… but I preyed for a miracle… that he would suddenly wake up and get up… that we’d use this experience to make up for the missed time… that we’d go to the beach, to Disney land, go camping, etc…. but it didn’t happen…. God has his own ways.. not mines…. God left us with my mom…. She’ll never replace my dad. We’re working on our relationship as there are many struggles to deal… she was always distant with us and we don’t know her very much…. My sis and I have a little bit of resentment and we take one step forward and two back , but we’ll work on it. My mom is still prideful… doesn’t like to apologize but it’s ok… maybe God did this so we can work on our relationship with God and my mom.. so we can appreciate the meaning of life, love, and God. You’ll be in my prayers too. I have to believe you sent me a message from my dad from Heaven… we miss you so much dad, we have to let you rest. Know you’ll always be in our hearts and thoughts.. till it’s our turn to part this world. Till we meet again.. Thank you SL😇🥲😇
I am so so sorry for you loss, We are very fortunate that our Mother live with my two sister, that are single and care for her...Mothers day she was singing & laughting she too has Dementia. Mother is 93...She wants to go 🏡 home everyday...Home to her past which is another story... She wears a mask to any & all visit & laugh like a sweet child. We love her so much. My Dad died of cancer @ 39 & left her single with 9 children. God has Blessed Us and we are very grateful...Stay safe! Do your very best & if your 😷 sick quarantine..This too shall pass. 💖
I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending you hugs and love to you and your family. You have given me so much hope and love. I’m sending you so much hugs and letting you know everyone is here for you. Thank you for being open and loving.
My dad also died from Covid 19 and I miss him so much and I'm still trying to deal with it but keeping strong for my mother and my brothers n sisters as well as my nieces but I'm sorry to hear about your lost thank you for sharing your words on the lost of your fathers lost...
so sorry to hear this. Allow yourself to work through the grief. Remember the good times. My dad was as tough as they came... we talk about him all the time as a family - realizing how much he influenced us as adults. They live through us.
Thank you for sharing this Risa and for your generosity in such a difficult time. So very sorry for the loss of your dear father. May he Rest In Peace.
I also lost my father to COVID-19, he was healthy with no underlying health issues, a front liner and 67 would have saw his 68th birthday a few days later. May he Rest In Everlasting Peace along with all those loved ones lost. 🙏🏽🕉 my heart breaks for us all
@@Bornin2Beauty18 its been 10 months since I lost my dad. Im still thinking of him everyday. its seems losing our loved one especially our parents will leave a scar until the day I die.
This is sad and I pray and ask You God to pls comfort us as we are going through this pain. We don't understand why this is all happening but You do Lord. You are the truth and way and life. Pls help us to live for You now and no longer for this world. We are helpless without you
I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family through this very difficult time. Thank you for having the courage to do this video. I am sure it will benefit many. Bless you and yours.
My condolences to you and your family for the loss of your dad, and may you all find peace and comfort in sharing the great memories that he has left with you. Your video is a really big help for those of us dealing with not being able to see elderly parents at this time. Thank you for your video, your inner strength really shines through.
My condolences to you and your loved ones Risa on the loss of your parents. I too, lost both of my parents due to Covid-19 with 12 days if each other. Your insight and advice is greatly appreciated and cherished. Please stay safe. Take good care.
I’m so sorry for your loss and everyone else who has lost and will lose someone they love during all of this. I’ve lost many in my life and it is always devastating but this virus is taking an entire generation from us. Sending you prayers. 💕
I'm am very sorry to hear of your loss. You are extremely brave to allow your feeling's to be put out there for all to see but you handled it with such class, emotion and above all dignity for the loss of your father. You are so right on so many points in your video and I admire you for being able to discuss them in your time of grief.
My dad died from COVID-19 10 days ago. At first, his symptoms were just mild. Then it got difficult to breathe. His roommate found him unconscious on the floor and call 911. My dad’s lungs were not responding to treatment. He was also diabetic and had hypertension. He got lung scars. He then got in a heart attack and into cardiac rest, and because his blood oxygen levels were so low caused by COVID, he didn’t survive it. He died on the morning of August 10, 2021. He was 59 at time of death. All of his children ( including me) are in their early 20s.
Dear Risa, thank you for sharing this. I marvel at your strength and the clarity of purpose which helps propel you to create the videos that help, comfort and give specific actions steps for the community. It helps bring down the emotional craziness to a level that helps someone take a breath and think rationally of what is needed next. Thank you, Risa. And my deepest condolences again. Sending you hugs!

Tragic loss and cremation no viewing. Had gathering where temp. Were checked upon entry ,masks worn by some ,no more than 30 allowed. Covid 19 has changed the world. I understand your loss. So sorry for each one who has lost their loved one.
So sorry for your loss. May your father rest in peace. And thank you for sharing your experience. Many people will benefit from hearing this.
Thanks so much. I hope so...it was a difficult video to make but realized that if even a handful of people could learn from our experience then it would be worth it and my father would be proud.
Thank you so much. Stay healthy
I'm so sorry about the loss of your mom and dad. My dad just passed too from Covid. I never thought he would die from Covid. I'm in shock. I miss him. I did get to spend 4 days with him sharing nothing but love. For that I am grateful.
im so sorry for your loss. you are very strong to have recorded this. I pray for peace for your family.
Thank you so much. Stay safe and healthy.
How could you use the death of ur parents to attract follower?so disrespectful

Thank you. I just hope that other families don't have the endure what we are as a family. Keep safe and healthy.
Thanks for sharing. My mom died from COVID on 5/6/20 after being in the hospital for three weeks. My dad is still battling his COVID disease. He is at an acute care hospital with a tracheotomy. We were told he wouldn’t recover to his same self and will need to be in a nursing home. It’s so sad for me and my siblings because like others, we weren’t able to see and talk with my mom before she died. We are able to talk with our dad, but only through FaceTime. I can’t imagine how lonely my dad feels. He’s been use to family and friends all of his life. This virus is such a big heartbreak for all families that have experienced loss.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. My husband also lost his Mom who lived in Nursing Home. She had been on no medications prior and was one of dozens who perished in her facility. Her facility moved all known “cases” to another facility designated as a Covid Center. She never had breathing problems. She had fever and off and on cough. She thankfully didn’t struggle. Lost ability to swallow. She died 2 days later. I think that most nursing homes are housing patients too closely together in rooms. We had a funeral in a funeral home with only 8 of us there. We shared her funeral on a group Zoom call with many family members including her only surviving sibling who was so grateful to see her and share wonderful memories of this special woman. We followed hearse to burial site and they agreed to drive past the Rest Home where several employees were standing holding signs of remembrance. They also drove past the home where she grew up. Surreal days indeed but her funeral and burial was beautiful.
I am so sorry. Thank you for sharing. It warms my heart that her funeral and burial was beautiful and meaningful. Sending cyber hugs.
So sorry for your loss. :..o(
Your story touched my heart 😢
Im so sorry for your loss. I, too, lost my dad to Covid 19. He passed on August 16. He was not in a nursing home. He got sick at work (hospitality). He spent 41 days in the hospital, 27 of them were on a ventilator. I dont wish this on anyone.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm a cancer patient and I have started to make rearrangements for my death and funeral. Thank you for making this video. No one ever thinks about what happenes after their loved ones pass.
God bless you
My heart is with you as well. We all are blessed to see another day. U shall overcome this
I admire your strength to be vocal. I hope you are still able to receive proper treatment amidst all the chaos. Keep sharing your story because it is needed!
You handled this subject with such grace. Thank you for your bravery and sharing your fathers life and passing with us.
I completely understand your feelings, I lost my father last month because of the virus he was 66 , that broke my heart . He meant a lot to me, the words can't describe my feelings...
My dad who is 80 was admitted into hospital with a leg infection in Melbourne Australia. Due to Dad suffering from Dementia and mum being 76 with back issues as a result from constant lifting of my dad, the hospital care team recommended Dad be placed in transitional care whilst we search for an aged care facility. I knew then in my heart that Dad was going to be placed at a high risk. Subsequently 8 days in the transitional care facility we were informed that a patient tested positive to COVID-19. A few days later dad tested positive and we have been told to prepare for his passing in the coming days. Seeing a man that was you protector diminish into a fragile being is something I cannot explain. He now lies in his hospital bed at the transitional care facility alone in isolation with the family visiting him from the outside window as if we were visiting a zoo. I thought this virus was a joke but seeing a loved one go through what I’m now seeing is something I would not recommend. I’m glad knowing that he is listening to his favourite music as it calms and puts him at ease and am now waiting for that call, your dad has passed. What if’s pop into my head. Guilt plays a part. But I know I can’t blame myself or anybody for this. It’s a beast that decides on who it wants to take. Dad you have nothing to worry about mate. When your time comes everybody will be fine. Your will never leave as your DNA is in me . Together forever.
My condolences to you and your family. I work in a nursing home and to date we have no Covid patients. Were one of the few in the county. Eventhough our PPE is running low, we are very vigilant and come up with ideas. My coworkers and I have put in money of our pockets to purchase masks and face shields. We bought raincoats, ponchos, anything that can be used as PPE we use. We double up and if a patient goes out of the facility for a procedure at the hospital, we put the patient in isolation precautions for 2 weeks no matter what. Always checking patients vital signs every 2 hrs. I pray to GOD each and every night that the patients and staff are safe.
Thank you for your work during this and yes keep on praying! God is still in control.
Sorry to hear about your father. My uncle died of covid -19. He was in a nursing home. He was found unresponsive in his bed. The nurses thought that he possibly had a stroke. He was take to the hospital Friday tested positive for covid-19. He died Sunday all family could do was video chat. He never became responsive after finding him that Friday. He also had dementia.
I lost my dad to COVID 19. No words can’t explain how’s deadly this virus is. Our family won’t be the same
I lost my dad two days ago to covid. He was not in a nursing home.
Aide Florian Sorry for your loss it’s hard time for everyone stay positive try to remember the good memories I know it’s tough
My father aswell peace & prosperity to you life 🤍🌟( I love you bro’s).
Same here 😢
I just lost my dad last night 😞💔
So sorry about your loss🌹
I am so sorry. My 85 year old Mother just passed of Covid-19. She had Alzheimer's, breast cancer and had survived 2 heart attacks. In 11 days she was gone from Covid.. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I appreciate you talking openly about this.
I'm terribly sorry for your loss. This video was very informative and helpful. Thank for you posting it as I'm sure it was difficult to do.
thank you so much. yes, it was more difficult than i thought it would be to video but I felt that it was important for others to know what is really happening out there. we all can learn how to deal with this better...and make more informed decisions.
My niece recently passed. Not able to have a typical viewing and funeral, her family arranged a memorial via Zoom, an internet conferencing app that allows a number of folks to join together in a video conference call. They had a minister officiating it, his words were short and sweet to allow time for those present to share their memories and thoughts. This also allowed friends and family who lived far away to participate where they couldnt otherwise. Everyone could see each other and time was allowed for everyone to greet one another. Funerals, like weddings, can also be family reunions. I’m sorry for your loss. You provide a valuable service and to out aside your own grief to ensure we all get value out of your own experience is incredibly generous. Thank you. Loss is never easy. And the pain doesn’t necessarily go away but over time can ease... a little. Sending you love, health, and good wishes.
How old was your niece.. so sorry for your lost.. may God give you comfort!
Same for my aunt - heartbroken. Zoom funeral also.
I am so sorry for your loss, may you and your family find peace at this time. And may your father rest in peace. Prayers for you and your family.
thank you so much.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I also work in nursing where Covid-19 cases are prevalence and we unfortunately lost some residents due to this virus. No one ever thinks that this could be someone's mother, father brother and how it leaves such an impact.
I too lost my father on Monday May 4. The nursing home reached out to me to let me know his blood oxygen had dropped, he had difficulty breathing and were going to give him morphine. They asked me if I wanted to see him. I raced to the nursing home, put on all the PPE they gave me, was brought into the room but he was already passed. I was hysterical. I realized later that while this last vision of him was upsetting it also gave me a kind of closure as you suggested in your video. I’m glad I was given the opportunity to go see him in person. I just hope I didn’t take too much of a risk by doing that. Condolences to your family.
Condolences to your family so sorry for your loss. May GOD bless you all and be your strength in this time.
So very sorry for your loss.
Condolences to you and your family!
Oh, Lauren, I am so sorry. So very sorry.
Your father was having covid-19?
So sorry to hear about your parents. May they Rest In Peace. Your channel is very helpful, thank you for everything you share
I just lost my dad this past Thursday. For some reason, your video came up in my feed. Thank you for making this. May both of our fathers rest in paradise
❤🙏
From Australia, I'm so sorry for your loss. Sharing your experience was not only brave of you but selfless. Your shared experience will no doubt, be helpful for somebody else who has a loved one who is fighting this terrible virus. Bless you & bless your father.
My heart goes out to your family. My own dad was swept away so quickly in a facility. Heartbroken, a great video.
I'm so so sorry to hear about your loss. Keep your loved ones close.
Thank you for putting your father's face to a virus that we hear more numbers about than human grieving stories...this can be such a help to us to have compassion and dedication.
My deepest condolences to you and your family during this terrible time.
Terrible time indeed. Thank you so much. Your message means a lot.
I’m so so sorry about your loss. My mom passed away in February ( not Covid-19 related) of a heart attack and cancer stage 4. My Most sincere condolences.
Thank you for sharing this. My father passed away three months ago from an aneurysm, before the heightened state of COVID-19 hit our country (Trinidad). So I know the pain of loss. May you be at peace knowing he was properly cared for and that you did your best for him during his lifetime. Also, focus on his life and not on his death. For his 89 years of life, you must have so much lovely memories by which to remember him. Peace and strength to you and your family at this time.
Oh, I'm really sorry. May your father rest in peace. My mom and me suffered from the virus and we followed your recommendations about how to improve the immune system. Thank you
thank you so much. Yes, we are still wrapping our heads around the fact that he is gone. I am happy to hear that you are feeling better!! Thank you for watching. Stay healthy and safe!
I am so sorry for your the the loss of your father. I searched videos trying to make sense of the recent deaths of two close family friends and came across yours. You are an amazing lady helping others in your time of grief. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
How do you feel about this ??
When the phone rings in the middle of the night...I know how it feels, I have been through it all.
Thank you for this video. My father is in a nursing home as well and I've been so worried. My condolences to you and your family.
I'm so sorry to hear about your dad :( and everyone else in the comments who have lost a loved one.
Nori, I am so sorry for your loss and grief. My parents are both in a nursing home and you are living what I have afraid what will happen to one or both of my parents. The nursing home has forbidden us from even going to their window to see them. Mom has called me twice, begging me to come and get her. They did have a parade for the residents yesterday and I got to see them as I drove by. Daddy couldn’t wake up to see us, even though the staff was trying their best to get him to. I broke. I just had all I could take, especially with Daddy being unable to see me there. I don’t want them to think that I have forgotten them and with dementia you don’t really know if they understand what’s going on. I am making a call to the funeral home this morning. I had thought about it before, but just didn’t do it. I am so very sorry that you are in this situation and that you have now lost both parents. Try to stay strong, but let the tears flow. They are part of the process and this was your daddy who is gone. Thank you for sharing the video.
I’m so very sorry for the lost of your parents, and I deeply regret that you and your family were not able to be at your father’s bedside. Thank God more hospitals and nursing homes are starting to allow at least one or two family members to visit their loved ones, although with some restrictions. I can’t begin to thank you enough for sharing this information even in the midst of your grief. The fall season is approaching and COVID19 cases are beginning to rise again. Families need to be prepared for death whether or not there is a pandemic. While it’s an uncomfortable conversation for most people, we all can ease the pain for our surviving families by preparing well ahead of our final time. In addition to what your video covers, I would like to mention that a living Trust, a Power of attorney for financial and medical decisions, and life insurance or prepaid memorial arrangements help tremendously in providing the family with a blueprint for the final wishes of the deceased. Some of these documents are available online ( Legal Zoom for example). And hospitals, cemeteries and insurance companies can provide some of these documents too. You may not always need an attorney. And you don’t have to be rich. In most states a Will gives little protection for assets and decisions, because Wills can be contested in court. This can create a long expensive process called Probate. This process is run by the State, so that the estate ( belongings & property) of the deceased can be divided among the family however the state feels is necessary. A separate probate process occurs in each state that the deceased owns property. This process can go on for Months or even Years. Each state deducts the cost of probate out of the estate. Thank you for helping to remind us that even a little preparation can make a huge difference for grieving families. God Bless You and Your Family. 🙏
I'm so sorry for your loss. My dad passed from this horrible virus on May 4th! He should have been around another 20 years or so. He was Healthy! I feel for you and your family!
I just lost my beautiful Mom 6 days ago to covid. She was only 56 and perfectly healthy :(. She fought hard in the hospital for 2 weeks before the virus took her life. This has been the hardest thing I’ve gone through in my entire life. We weren’t allowed to be there with her to hold her hand. We couldn’t say goodbye to her in person only over a FaceTime call. We couldn’t see her body after 😭. It is traumatizing to say the least. It doesn’t feel real.
I am so so saddened to hear this. It mirrors what happened with me and my dad. 8 months later it still feels surreal. But I do feel his presence...and you will feel your moms, forever. Just remember that she is with you still, not in physical form but in spiritual. big hugs.
Sorry for your loss Amanda, may she Rest in peace
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I hope he didn’t have to suffer. My heart breaks thinking you weren’t able to see him to say goodbye in person. Praying for your family. Thanks for making this video.
Yes not being able to say goodbye it definitely one of the hardest parts. Thank you for your kind message.
I am very sorry for your loss! May God bless him and have mercy on him and your whole family during these difficult times! I will pray for you and your family!
I lost my father a week ago due to COVID19. He was admitted to the hospital on May 12th, placed on a ventilator by May 13th, and passed away on May 25th. During his time in the hospital, although he was sedated, I was able to speak to him via zoom (thanks to the nurses.) I was very fortunate because I was allowed to see my father two hours before he passed away. I was able to hold his hand and speak to him before he passed away. If you have a family member in the hospital call at least once a day to get an update, ask questions, ask to see your family member even if they cannot see you!! Lastly, if you get "the call", ask if you can visit.
My family was very fortunate to have an open casket viewing with a marachi band playing throughout the four hours of the wake. We laughed, cried, sang songs, and had a procession. He will be cremated within the upcoming week, in a year we will take his ashes to Mexico and bury them next to his father's grave. With all of that said, our final goodbyes wouldn't have been as meaningful if we went with another funeral homes. Several funeral homes near me were not doing any viewings/wakes, strictly cremation or burial. Please "shop around" for a great funeral home who will take care of your family and treat you like family. The funeral home director went above and beyond for my family, everything we asked for they worked their magic and made it happen. Saying your final goodbyes plays such a big role in the grieving process. Nothing will ever be the same but we received the some of the closure we needed.
HI , I'm sorry your dad passed alone without family around him. My condolences to you and your family. Thank you for sharing such intimate factual ,caring information for others to be informed with.
My condolences to you and your family. My Grandma just passed away too on September 4, 2020 from Covid-19. We are all devastated and scared. We didn’t even tell her that we loved her and thank her for taking care of us through the years. It bothers me that she died alone and scared. As I write this, I am getting the symptoms. I don’t want them leave my children behind. Lord help, heal us, and give us protection from this virus.
I'm so sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace. My grandpa died from covid 19 in a nursing home 3 months ago. And just today i found out that my dad has it too. I'm terrified about what is going to happen, i'm still quite young and my dad is only 52 years old, and very healthy. I would be destroyed if anything happened to him. May god help everyone during this nightmare of a time and not test anyone with their loved ones.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for taking the time to share your story, it takes great strength. May your dad rest in peace. Stay safe and healthy.
Not even sure how I got to your channel- but I have to say I am so sorry for this sudden loss of your dad with this monster of a virus, that cruel beyond the death of a love one. I can't even imagine the pain you and your family are going through. This video was very informative.
Modern Aging - Holistic Health and Wealth After 50, I was born in the U.S. but live in South America. My grandmother passed away today due to corona virus. She was also in a nursing home and apparently everyone in there got it. She was sent to a hospital (she has Alzheimer’s by the way) and she was doing fine for the last 5 days but her immune system just couldn’t give any more. I hope you are well and sorry for your loss. She was a great grandmother to me and I miss her a lot. We used to live in Houston and she took care of me when I was little and she loved me a lot. I hope I can talk to someone in the comments about it.
I’m so sorry. My mum died a couple of years ago too and I am so worried about my dad who I haven’t seen for a couple of months because I am in a city and he’s concerned I could bring it to the rural area he lives in. I will pray for you and your family.
Thank you for talking about death. This is not done enough. As an aged care worker trying to build my business i am subscibing on the strength of this video, and your title. My condolences for your loss and my admiration for yor strength.
So very sorry for your loss. May the beautiful memories you have of your father help you through this time.
My heart broke hearing your story, I wish no one has to suffer a scenario like this! May your father rest in peace. Sending love and prayers on your way!
I am so sorry for your loss. My 81 year old dad had Covid, congestion and mild fever and extreme fatigue. He never sought medical help, but had Mom seeing after him. Somehow, she never caught it (we assume she had it in December and still immune with antibodies.) He slept a lot. But recovered mostly after 2 weeks. Most ppl don't seek help, they don't even know they have it. They just assume they have a bad cold. I would have, but many friends had the same symptoms and the ones that were tested was positive. Thank you for Sharing. God Bless You and your family.
I lost my mom do to COVID the 18 of April, a healthy happy person. To this day we have no idea how she got it. Everything you said about what you feel not been able to see them is so true I thought it was only me feeling it. Thank you, you help me a lot.
My wife died From Covid after battling COVID in February and Multiple myeloma ( Cancer) she lost her life three days after thanksgiving. My life is over I lost my queen to something they don’t seem to care about. Now my father is on a vent fighting for his life. ITS NOT A POLITICAL GAME it’s real and this PAIN is real.
My condolences on this difficult time. Both my paternal grandparents passed having dementia and Alzheimer’s. It is so hard to see them part. I cannot imagine how it feels to lose them in this circumstances. I send you a hug and pray that God will comfort you and your loved ones.
I’m so sorry for the loss of your farther. You’ve shown such love and grace for your parents. You’re a wonderful daughter.
I am sorry for your loss. Death of a loved one is so hard.
Maybe you could you do a video about your parents, sharing photos, a little home video and tell us what their strengths were and what knowledge they were able to share with you. I think it might help people who are currently grieving, to remember the good times, though hard it may be. May you find peace.
I am so very sorry for your family's loss😔🙏💗
My grandfather was just 72 and he passed away today.. i was unable to deal with the pain and shock.. thanks for this video.. may your father rest in peace❤
I'm sorry for your loss. My father just died from covid as well 😔😪
This whole pandemic has been horrific!!! I am praying for all those who have lost their love ones and friends!!! Thank you, for sharing!!! God Bless!!!
Thank you for taking the time to share these difficult experiences in hope to help. So sorry for the loss of your parents. May they rest in peace. Wishing you and your family peace and comfort during these difficult times.
Omg, I’m so sorry for your huge loss:(
My heart goes out to you and your family. May your Dad Rip🙏
Ian so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your deepest sorrow with us. I hope you and your loved ones remember the times your father was fun loving, courageous and the great artist and it will give you comfort in remembering how much he loved you.
I am very sorry for your loss. I know losing someone quickly can be so difficult. Lots of love from Gensac.
thanks so much Amy. I hope you and the whole family are doing well and keeping healthy.
I am so sorry you lost your Dad.It is heartbreaking.
My dad just passed away yesterday in a Nursing Home in Miami Beach. He just turned 89 this month and had alzheimer and haven't seen him since March. He was a healthy man and died from covid-19. If I could only touch his hand and kiss him goodbye for the last time...I love you papa!
May he rest in peace
That was a very powerful video to watch. I so admire you for making it. My reaction other than sympathy is anger. Anger for what you and your father went through. Anger at our primitive country opening up too soon. Anger at friends of mine who aren't adhering to stay at home guidelines and not social distancing even though one of them is a nurse at a nursing home, anger at the President who did next to nothing to provide aggressive coordination across the 50 states and Puerto Rico. It's like we are in a diseased culture, a fanasty nightmare movie we can't escape from. I get some strength to do my part and get more strength watching folks like you. Very very sorry for your loss.
I also lost my hero... he was healthy otherwise... but he passed away from Covid -12/02/20... at the age of 70!!!!
He was not in a facility.. he was living in his own home caring for my little 7 year old niece. I also knew of the high rates of the elders, but somehow I also didn’t think my day would become a victim. Within 18 days, of him getting diagnosed he passed away... please please, I beg of you.... take care of your elders...
my dad chose comfort care since the doctors said he was not a candidate of lung transplant, or eckmo, or anything else...... they said, if he chose the ventilator, he’ll be dependent on it until we have to disconnect him..... so my dad made the painful choice.
I will forever live with the guilt of not taking my dad out, of visiting more, or calling him more... I cannot do anything anymore.... he’s gone.... but if you have your parents, please connect with them more. Create special bonds because I was too consumed with my life with kids, home , college app’s, etc..that I left out my own dad... please don’t judge me... I’m already suffering every single minute that goes by. Take care and May God bless you.
I just want to say I am deeply sorry for your loss and I hope that you overcome your guilt. You loved your dad and he knows that. You could've done more and still will find a way to feel guilty, because you love your dad. I just lost my husband from Covid/Cancer and I was with him 24/7 for the past 10 years and during every breath he took till he past, but yet, I feel guilty, maybe I could've done this or that, or shouldn't have done this or that and everyday suffer from the feeling of guilt. Nobody is perfect and will feel guilty for anything because we love that person so deeply and that person is gone. So please try to find a way for you to feel better about yourself, because I am sure your father would be happier if you are happy. I am in a process of doing that for myself.
@@SL-fz3ex Thank you for your kind words. After 9months, the pain is still there, but I move forward by remembering our happy days, when he’d take us out every Friday to Taco Bell, jimmy jacks, and to Kmart to get those soggy subways.😆 . My dad would always help me on those science projects doing the volcano, got cooler pump and created the lava effect,…. He was awesome! I do that with my own children too… 6 months before he passed away on my nephew’s 18th birthday, he made a speech. It was as if he knew he’d pass away. Asked for for forgiveness for all his wrong-doings etc, for always working, not giving us the love we deserved . My sister and I had forgiven him years ago and completely understood him. Have you ever heard: “Cats in the cradle “-- that was us but my dad and I had our own bond. Yes, I could have made more time for him….. he’d deserved it…. He never abandoned us. He was a family man without bad habits. He did not bring his friends to our house. My dad raised my sister alone while my mom left and came….
There are many mornings, while I’m dropping the boys of to school, that I scream in the van crying for my dad… wondering why he left so suddenly.. why did god take him… wondering if I could x years of my life just to hug, kiss, talk to him, I probably would..
When the doctors told us, he would die with comfort… I understood it… but I preyed for a miracle… that he would suddenly wake up and get up… that we’d use this experience to make up for the missed time… that we’d go to the beach, to Disney land, go camping, etc…. but it didn’t happen…. God has his own ways.. not mines…. God left us with my mom…. She’ll never replace my dad. We’re working on our relationship as there are many struggles to deal… she was always distant with us and we don’t know her very much…. My sis and I have a little bit of resentment and we take one step forward and two back , but we’ll work on it. My mom is still prideful… doesn’t like to apologize but it’s ok… maybe God did this so we can work on our relationship with God and my mom.. so we can appreciate the meaning of life, love, and God.
You’ll be in my prayers too. I have to believe you sent me a message from my dad from Heaven… we miss you so much dad, we have to let you rest. Know you’ll always be in our hearts and thoughts.. till it’s our turn to part this world. Till we meet again..
Thank you SL😇🥲😇
I am so so sorry for you loss, We are very fortunate that our Mother live with my two sister, that are single and care for her...Mothers day she was singing & laughting she too has Dementia.

Thank you for sharing this Risa and for your generosity in such a difficult time. So very sorry for the loss of your dear father. May he Rest In Peace.
Thanks so much. I just hope that others can learn and perhaps make different decisions based on our family experience.
I lost my dad few weeks ago because of covid he was 62 and a frontliner.
I’m sooo sorry about your loss.😥 I’ll be praying for you. ❤️
Sorry for your loss my gmom is currently fighting...its sad.
I lost my dad too thanks to the covid 19 and he was 69 . 😞
I also lost my father to COVID-19, he was healthy with no underlying health issues, a front liner and 67 would have saw his 68th birthday a few days later. May he Rest In Everlasting Peace along with all those loved ones lost. 🙏🏽🕉 my heart breaks for us all

I'm am very sorry to hear of your loss. You are extremely brave to allow your feeling's to be put out there for all to see but you handled it with such class, emotion and above all dignity for the loss of your father. You are so right on so many points in your video and I admire you for being able to discuss them in your time of grief.
My dad died from COVID-19 10 days ago. At first, his symptoms were just mild. Then it got difficult to breathe. His roommate found him unconscious on the floor and call 911. My dad’s lungs were not responding to treatment. He was also diabetic and had hypertension. He got lung scars. He then got in a heart attack and into cardiac rest, and because his blood oxygen levels were so low caused by COVID, he didn’t survive it. He died on the morning of August 10, 2021. He was 59 at time of death. All of his children ( including me) are in their early 20s.
