Chef your wife is right. It's the food we eat. We just need to watch what we eat. I'm 46 and have been on dialysis for 11 yrs, this year will be 12 yrs. My brother before he passed away was on dialysis for 20+ years. Dialysis is not the end for anyone. It's just the beginning of a new way of life. God Bless You and your family. ❤❤❤
Awww ❤️ Rita, please speak life over your husband and your family. Start telling him "you will be 100%" until it become his reality and have faith in God. Our words have the power of life and death ❤ Faamanuia tele le Atua i si tou aiga 🇳🇿
Thank you for the reminder❤ I really appreciate it a lot mad respect ✊ but I was just telling him that his strength is not going to be the same as before he got sick❤😊
Hi Rita. You're right about he's strength. Everyday it's different. I come home from dialysis some days and I feel so drained and weak. But other days I feel strong. Not like I can climb a mountain strong but strong enough to do stuff around the house. God Bless You for taking on the caretaker job of your husband. It's not an easy job, I was taking care of my sick mom before having to do dialysis. It's not easy. And you will be continuously Blessed for your loving choice. I pray for strength and BLESSINGS upon Chef, you and your family. Faamalosi Chef got this❤❤❤❤
Rita you are a very strong wife and mom that keeps the family together in hard time of needs. Chef, think positive and pray to our good lord that he will heal you 100% for a speedy recovery. Sending my deepest prayers and blessings to you chef and the whole family. Aloha from Hawaii

Long time fan of yours chef, the family you and your wife have built is a rare exception in this world today. But, I am here to tell you that my cousin who was on dialysis set the record in our state by living 18 years on dialysis. Yup no typo 18 years, he ate and drank whatever he wanted until dialysis. He then DRASTICALLY changed his diet, lots of green vegetables with fruits and nuts plus plenty of water. . He cut back on red meat, more chicken breast, fish and turkey. He also joined a gym worked out 3 to 5 times a week an hour at a time pushing himself. With the love and support from his family, in my opinion I have never seen him look so fit in his entire life. You have so much to live for chef, too many people counting on you USO. MALOSI ! I hope you read this comment, my entire family and I are cheering for you as well as the thousands who view this channel .
Rita, you're absolutely incredible! Your strength and resilience remind me so much of the powerful women in my life-my mum and sisters. You don't receive enough verbal appreciation from your husband, but I want you to know how much your tough love and authenticity resonate - it's truly inspiring! I pray for healing powers over Chef and may God continue to bless you all ❤
You need to make sure you take care of yourself too, sis. That’s a lot of stress that you’re taking upon yourself to care for Chef and your kids. Alofa atu❤️🙏🏽❤️
My heart goes out to you and your wife and family Chef! I work in the hospital and I know that dialysis is not an easy process for anyone to go through, but I also know a lot of people who have lived a long, and fulfilling life STILL despite dialysis. I pray that God refreshes and renews all your strength through this time. 🙏 God's strength is perfect in our weakness! God bless you!
I couldn’t help but cry with this video 😢 I’m sorry , sending you love and prayers for the health of your husband and to you and the kids , faamalosi Pea oe papa and take care 🙏♥️
Chef your wrong uso! Your wife is right. It’s the food. When you said I’ve been sick that cause of the food that you were eating. When i will watch you and your family eat. From fasi povi, turkey tail, a lot of salt etc.. that’s what causes gout, diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney failure. American food is not like Samoa food. Samoa is organic our foods here are all chemicals and processed foods, fast foods. All cause sickness in your body. Keep GOD in your heart and also don’t just count on dyalisis. Put your name in the kidney transplant list. Find you a donor they matches you. Like family or close friends. You got this chef with god anything is possible. I’ve been there. Plus you can set a healthy example for your 2 younger boys. No more pisupo for the lol. Stay blessed. And you have an awesome wife with a good heart! 🙏🏽🤎🙏🏽
Aww😢 Malo Rita le loko koa! Having too endure being a Father and Mother all in one, your amazing 👏 Talofae Chef, God has you, your a good man, praying for you Chef and especially your family. May the Good Lord give Rita all the strength 💪 too hold the fort..
Rita, I know you are a super mom, make sure to take care of yourself, your families will be so lost if anything happen to you, always keep you guys in our prayer. ❤
You’re doing great Mrs. Rita. Yes food plays a big factor in our health. I did notice that Chef likes to eat very fast in older videos, and enjoying your food and eating at a slower pace is better. Have you thought of putting the water dispenser to the right of the deep freezer and just plug it into an extension cord? That’s a lot of weight to lift that machine up!
Alofagia e Le Atua lou feagai ai ma gasegase o le Tino Chef...,aoga kele le video lea for us fans e kakau a ga iai le kaimi e faamuamua ai le soifua maloloina ,alolofa atu iinei Samoa..God Bless.
💯 Agree Rita. Its the food. What we put into our mouths really matter. Its probably hard for Chef to accept that its the food because we LOVE our Island food, but sometimes our island diet and our way of cooking involves us using alot of salt and we become used to it, which aint good for our kidneys, and heart causing in turn lifelong health issues in the long run.
Be strong Chef it's hard but you will get better, it took me the whole year to come to terms with dialysis too, i hated going to every session but it wasn't till the beginning of this year i started to come to terms with it and i changed to home care training where i feel better that i will be handling my own T-line until my fistula matures as I've already had 6 T-libes and now 2 fistulas so be strong and it will get better as time goes by alifa atu and all the best for your sessions and dialysis does tire you out after every session ❤
Don't cry Chef, be strong ❤ May our Loving Father watch over you, give you strength to help you through your treatment. Rita, you are strong beyond words. You are an inspiration to your children and for us who watch your channel. May our Heavenly Father keep you and your family safe and loved within His caring hands 💞
The soup looks so good Rita. Gardenia lol she’s the soup taster ❤😊 cutie Awee Chef, you keep encouraging yourself and we are praying that you continue to get stronger day by day ❤ I cried with you Chef 😢 stay strong. God, is watching over your family. I believe that totally. Thank you for sharing, your good and your sad times. Love you guys ❤❤❤ God bless
Rita you are honest ❤ it’s a lesson for most of us 😊but this is the reality of not looking after our health. Malo onosai e le faigofie Le galuega but God is our strength ❤ you are a strong woman of God I can see that throughout all your videos ❤
Chef, I know it’s got to be a tough time for you right now going from free to now being dependent on dialysis, but keeping a positive outlook is so important for you and your family; mental health affects physical health. You are blessed to have many more days ahead to love on your beautiful wife and young children. You’ve got this.
Keep the Faith Chef!no matter what your health issues are God Is Able and Always Faithful.Enjoy the rest of the week,hands down to you Rita for keeping it together👏👏God Bless Afulu Family🙏❤️❤️
Talofa e, you reminded me so much of my husband when he first started with his dialysis. Faimai laga tala iai a’u sa sili ai pe aga oti 😢pls I’m not saying that it’s not good but it’s how he feels about the treatment just like how you feel. He was on dialysis for only à year and 6 months before he was called. Yes you should be grateful and thankful that it prolongs your life to be with your loved ones. There were times I felt his pain and agony cause of the treatment but I never showed it. We had plans to move to Alaska for his dialysis but it didn’t happen. Now I’m here with my children and grandkids we missed him so much 😢. It’s a healing process for me especially to be in a different environment. We just moved here during the holidays and decided to stay, home will always be home in American Samoa but spending time with family is more important than anything else in the world. I hope and pray that all will be well with your treatment. Prayers for better days ahead and good health to you. God bless your family and much alofa the Tagovailoa family ❤🥰♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi chef and family. Praying for healing over you. Keep up with your dialysis and do the best you can to stay healthy. It’s your lifestyle and the foods you eat can all contribute to what’s going on. Keep a positive attitude and I know you’ll pull through this
Hang in there Rita. I see how hard you work for your family. Chef needs you and your support now more than ever. We are rooting for you all. Take care and God bless
Be strong Rita n chef I feel emotional watching him struggling trying explain why he got sick kalofae ❤leai se mea E faigata le Alii ia maua pea Lou malosi aua le mafutaga ma gai kids g alofa atu m oukou uma n stay safe.
Why did this video make me cry watching Chef tell his story😩I watched my dad go through it, &he had passed away when I was 18yers old. He lived through dialysis for 10yrs &sadly God called him to heaven at the age of 50😢so I defs get why ur emotional. Have been a fan from day one, know that God will never leave nor forsake his people. It’s not ur time yet, you have alot ahead of you chef! All glory to God for granting another life so you could watch ur kids grow &spend time with ur fams esp your wife🥹Gods love &blessings from NZ♥️
I agree 100% with sis Rita it’s the foods we eat! Sis Rita please make sure you are taking care of yourself! It’s not an easy job doing what you have to do every day! Seeing Davita reminds me of when my mom was on Dialysis. 😢 Davita has lots of resources that can help with managing your fluid intake & cooking meals for you Chef, take advantage of it! We met a lady that was also on Dialysis that has been on Dialysis for over 20 years (she was on her 14th year when my mom started). You can do this Chef! 🙏🏽 Glad Thomas is feeling better & back to school! Stay safe & blessed out there! 🙏🏽❤️
It’s hard for a man who has been strong and eaten whatever he wants, worked hard all his life to this scare, is not an easy feat. Chef you have more to gain what you have in front of you is everything. I love watching your family’s channel and eagerly wait for updates and new content. We here who watch and love your family are surely cheering and praying for your recovery and happiness. Dialysis is truly not the end, my daughter and dad had to go through dialysis, I know that people can be on dialysis and live happy lives for many Many years. In the beginning it’s hard to be optimistic, but you have a strong and wonderful wife and beautiful family. Rita please take care of yourself. Sometimes whether you want or like to or not you have to take time out for yourself. Self care is so important for your own wellbeing. Sending much love, healing, peace and strength over the ocean🙏🏾💛
Hope all goes well for you and your family You are a very strong woman by the way you are doing everything for your family God bless you and your family and hope chef wake up and agree it’s what he’s eating that’s why he’s like thats not his theory
It’s crazy when we neglect our health and then hate and complain about the things we must do to stay alive. Eating the wrong kinds of food for many years will eventually catch up with us and result in poor health with many different health issues, not just gout and diabetes. Unfortunately, dialysis is a necessary evil for many diabetics. Recognizing and owning the role we played in how we got to that point is going to help get us thru the process easier. We may still hate it, but we’ll be in better head space to deal with it. We may not get another opportunity to get it together. It’s a hard lesson to learn for all of us, not just the patient. 🙏💕
Sa’o lelei Rita, your eating chef has been unhealthy. Don’t kid yourself it’s the wrong foods you been eating‘cause we’ve been watching. But praying you’ll get better
Chef, your wife is 100% correct. I'm just a stranger on youtube but i always feel for fellow humans, especially Polynesians as i can relate. Us islanders are too stubborn for our own good. Growing up as a poverty kid in Samoa, it was all about Quantity, not Quality. Didn't help the fact that we did not have much knowledge on the food that is being shipped in our island when we had everything that we need to consume right in our backyard. Knowing what i know now, i'd 100 percent advocate for the health of our future generation in Samoa. Your health might have been diminished, but it's never too late to exercise and keep active in hopes for the longevity of life to create more memories with your beautiful family especially since the kids are still very young. DO IT FOR THEM. 🙏 manuia le Aso
Thank You for sharing your video. I appreciate what your family does on UA-cam. I had gout for 25 years until I changed my diet in Jan 2024. I got on a carnivore diet a week later the gout disappeared. Inflammation was reduced dramatically. We can fix all our health problems by eating the right food and drinking the right water. Cheers guys.
Faamalosi Chef, make the change for the kids to follow! God Bless 😎(aua le popole ua leai se kaepovi ile system a Chef leva ga kiligi le kamaloa a mum)

Stay Strong Chef & Rita! Sending Love, Prayers, and Blessings from Sydney💗
It is food. My father was in denial and would convince himself that it was everything BUT food lol But at the end of the day, we have to take accountability for our choices, good and bad. You have to take control of your life and claim healing. Easier said than done, but it is possible. Your wife and kids need you. Praying for healing and strength. May Heavenly Father continue to bless your needs and your family ❤
My father was Samoan. Our culture is very food centered. Food is such a social event in our culture. It is hard to give up all the foods that are so embedded in our families and lives. Our whole family had to change our diet because if we ate the foods dad loved so much in front of him he couldn't resist eating some too. Which hurt his kidneys and his heart. It was very hard for my father and sometimes he would have some "cheat days" and eat his pisupo, his green bananas, taro, panikeke, koko,palusami Luau etc. We only ate our native foods on Sundays But through moderation he was able to live longer and we were happy to get the extra time. His kidneys were so bad, as was his heart but we were blessed with more time and thank God for that. Faifai Lemu. God Bless your family We enjoy watching your channel.
Your are truly blessed! Rita is such a wonderful mother and wife. she is all you need Pray that God will continue to heal you chef and restore your health alofa atu
Prayers for your husband to get better, and Rita you are a very strong and tough woman! GOD continues to be with you and family thru his journey in recovery 🙏🙏❤️❤️ Im diabetic too and watching my food is very important, specially eating red meat😢 GOD BLESS thank you sharing this wonderful video with us. Gardenia is so Beautiful🥰🥰 alofa atu ❤❤
Aww ❤ Chef don't use your energy to worry, use your energy to believe.✊ Chef your God got your back! 🙌 Sister Rita, my tears shed not a sign of weakness . Is a sign of your pure humble heart . God bless yourself and your family 💔❤️🩹❤️🔥❤️
I’m so sorry chef🙏🏻❤️I get what he’s trying to say😞he knows what he has to do to get better. What he’s saying is, it’s not just the food! His kidneys are shut from at least 20 years back from other things as well. We all need to back off and let this family be! We can obviously see how hurt and frustrated they are. Let’s all relax and enjoy the videos. We’re here to support in any way we can😘when our family goes through sad times or bad times, we have a motto we say to each other. This too shall pass🙏🏻😘❤️hopefully it works for you as well as it does for us🙏🏻❤️I know it’ll get better and you’ll all learn to cope with your situation soon. One step at a time but you’ll get there and with God on your side. Praying for better days ahead for your family🙏🏻❤️
Rita you are right it’s all about the wrong foods ,I am Fijian/Tongan and we love our food but the key is too eat the right food to prolong our life ,I pray that Chef we fully recover and May God bless your Family
Stay strong chef !! God will never forsake you and your little family !! Stay positive!!! Always enjoy watching your guys videos !! God bless you guys always!!
I been watching for 2 years now , I finally started using my own UA-cam channel. So I am officially a subscriber 🎉❤ Hi Aunty Rita (hope you don’t mind me calling you aunty 😊) May Jesus Christ give you the strength of the Holy Spirit to keep moving forward with all that you have on your plate. May Chef be healed in the name of JESUS CHRIST so that you may be a Team again! I stand with Everton in prayer Chef. We miss your presence and jokes. 😅 Aunty Rita , in the midst of it all, I pray that you remember to lean on to God. Alofa aku , looking forward for the next ❤
Rita's reaction to Chef is classic 😂😂😂 Malo a le onosai Rita faapea foi Chef i gasegase o le tino. Sending you and yours prayers of hope and love in the sacred name o le Faaola alofa atu 🙏❤🎉
❤❤❤ We give unto God for all his blessings. Aww this one is hard to watch. Chef, lean onto God for he makes the impossible possible. I can tell you going through it mentally and emotionally. Be strong, your Faith will help you see better days. No one knows what you are going through, but you have a beautiful family who loves you and care for your well being. Take care of yourself both physically and mentally. I know you may seem like you lost so much of the things you love and feel you can't achieve your goals Chef, but who said. You can still accomplish so much Chef, you just may have to adjust how you accomplish your goals differently🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 Trust in God because he will help you and he will never leave you. God bless you mama Rita, I'm glad you guys posted this video because it shares Chef's experience and how he is going through some tough waters right now. But having you beside him, that is a blessing in itself. Thank you for loving hard and taking care of your family the way you do❤️❤️❤️ How are you doing? Make sure to take care of you too. Thank you Afulu Family. We love you guys and praying for Chef, Rita and your family. Gardenia is growing up too fast. Hope Rona and Romeo settled fine in GA. Pio and his wife get to visit you guys soon. Take care and God bless🤙🏼🤙🏼
Unfortunately it is the food that eventually led to diabetes, gout, and high blood pressure/cholesterol. So common in us Samoans because of our diet. Chef, I know you are having a hard time coming to terms with your new life. Try to stay positive, regardless of the situation… you are alive and present with your family. Everything else pales in comparison to this. Rita, you are a true blessing to your family, remember to take care of yourself also. ❤️❤️
Talofa fam. We miss you guys. Malo lava le ogosai i suiga o le soifuaga. O le tatalo lava ma le usitai i le fomai. Glad Moe is getting his treatment to get back his strength. New patients going through dialysis takes a while before they get strong and back to where they need to be. You won’t get back to 100% but you will get the strength to continue. You just gotta do your part Moe to take care of yourself and if you wanna continue to be with your family. Be strong and continue to fight for yourself and your family. Viia le Alii, ae maise lava ia oe Rita i le gafa ma tiute o le aiga. Our prayers to your family as you encounter this new change in your family. We love you guys and hope for better days ahead.
Chef fight for not only you. But for your loving, suppoive wife who is the greatest woman that has always stuck by you. please do not give up. Prayers to you Rita and the family ❤❤❤❤
Love you Chef🫶💙I’ve seen a lot of people live longer because of dialysis. So wonderful that you were given this option. We’ve witnessed you & your family try your best to eat clean & reverse any food-related illnesses. Mālo lava le onosa’i I talavai. Fa’amālo fo’i I si ou to’alua ia Rita ma le fanau I le lagolago malosi mo oe le tamā. Prayers & love coming your way🙌❣️
Chef Aua fia poko lol your wife is right. There’s a saying “You are what you eat” You are where you at bc of the choices you make which is the unhealthy food you eat. You need to implement more greens (vegetables) in your food and drink more water. It will lower your BP, help diabetics and especially help your kidneys, Liver and heart. Our people are guilty of this but yet they want to support but support wrong. Don’t tell me “We support you” instead of saying….”Sole, that’s unhealthy stop eating that” stop eating fast food especially for the kids. That isnt food, it’s processed food!! Just be careful cause the doctors and nurses, they don’t look out for our best interest. All they’re doing is feeding Pharma and how they get paid is making sure that they just prescribe you with prescription that kills your body thats why it’s better to always take natural supplements. Ia that’s my gooooood story! lol Manuia le aso
Faamalosi Chef. Aua e te loto vaivai i se mea tasi. Your children are watching how we react to lifes challenges in this life. Fight! fight! You can beat this. Not to survive but to thrive. alofa atu 💚
Your wife is right Chef! It’s all about what we choose to put in our bodies that’ll affect us later on in life. Hoping you get on a healthier journey for yourself and family. Prayers and blessings to you all!🙏🏾🫶🏾✨
Hi Rita, good to see you and family. God bless you all ae maise oe. If Chef has medicaid or Medicare you can ask Davita if they know of any local transportation programs. Sometimes those programs are free, it would save you time and gas. You must use all of the local resources so that you don't get burned out. Faamanuia Le Atua I ia te oe ma le
Stay strong, Rita & Chef! Your going through a tough & challenging time, but God is good and he can get you through it. But your right Rita, diet plays a big part in your well being. Eating well, exercise & reducing salt, sugar & fats can help improve your health. Take care & will be praying for you & your family! 🙏🙏
Talofa Chef, Rita and family. It's so emotional watching Chef doesn't look well, as he used to be. Chef, aua ete loto vaivai, o loo soifua lo tatou Atua, e leai se mea e faigata ia te ia. Sis Rita, look after yourself as well. I shared before our experiences with dialasys to you sis. The damaged is done, but dialasys is the only treatment. Thats what doctors advice and their findings.God is our saviour whom we asked for a miracle. We always remember your family in our prayers. Stay positive and tahe care. Love heaps.

Hafa Adai, Uncle Chef and family from Guam! God bless you all. Thank you for sharing Uncle Chef's journey. Please give me a shout-out! My name is Julio, and I'm from the tropical island of Guam. I enjoy watching your videos daily. It brings warmth and happiness to my family. Please try this local recipe from Guam. It is called estufao (chicken soup). The ingredients are basic (soy sauce, onions, garlic, black pepper, garlic powder, vinegar, and lemon). Boil chicken till cooked. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and pour. Add coconut milk (optional but highly recommended) and enjoy.
Chef you have to accept reality that you are wrong. Rita is right. Its the choices and food you eat. But lets be accountable with our choices. Malo Rita ogosai warm hugs to you
Rita, You're an amazing wife, mother, mother-in-law, and grandmother. Your love, honor, and loyalty to your entire family is impeccable!

Much love to everyone who goes through dialysis.. it really isn't an easy thing to do.. but the lord knows your heart Chef, keep pushing through for the sake of your family, YOU ARE LOVED by so many 🥰 I lost my mum to renal kidney failure (19 years ago) because of all the food she was eating Chef, especially our pacific island people who love ulu puaa, taro, tomatoes, Luau, Mamoe, all the fatty foods 🫣 but it's how our parents and there parents grew up. My mum was on dialysis for 10 years, and we did dialysis at home for the last few years of her life, she was over it 😔.. so watching your story brings back alot of memories.. Even though you didnt have to, thank you for sharing your story to the UA-cam world as it might help someone watching. God Bless you and your family ❤❤❤

Chef your wife is right. It's the food we eat. We just need to watch what we eat. I'm 46 and have been on dialysis for 11 yrs, this year will be 12 yrs. My brother before he passed away was on dialysis for 20+ years. Dialysis is not the end for anyone. It's just the beginning of a new way of life. God Bless You and your family. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing your story and for the kind words! 🙏❤️😊

Thank you for the reminder❤ I really appreciate it a lot mad respect ✊ but I was just telling him that his strength is not going to be the same as before he got sick❤😊
Hi Rita. You're right about he's strength. Everyday it's different. I come home from dialysis some days and I feel so drained and weak. But other days I feel strong. Not like I can climb a mountain strong but strong enough to do stuff around the house. God Bless You for taking on the caretaker job of your husband. It's not an easy job, I was taking care of my sick mom before having to do dialysis. It's not easy. And you will be continuously Blessed for your loving choice. I pray for strength and BLESSINGS upon Chef, you and your family. Faamalosi Chef got this❤❤❤❤
Rita you are a very strong wife and mom that keeps the family together in hard time of needs. Chef, think positive and pray to our good lord that he will heal you 100% for a speedy recovery. Sending my deepest prayers and blessings to you chef and the whole family. Aloha from Hawaii

Long time fan of yours chef, the family you and your wife have built is a rare exception in this world today. But, I am here to tell you that my cousin who was on dialysis set the record in our state by living 18 years on dialysis. Yup no typo 18 years, he ate and drank whatever he wanted until dialysis. He then DRASTICALLY changed his diet, lots of green vegetables with fruits and nuts plus plenty of water. . He cut back on red meat, more chicken breast, fish and turkey. He also joined a gym worked out 3 to 5 times a week an hour at a time pushing himself. With the love and support from his family, in my opinion I have never seen him look so fit in his entire life. You have so much to live for chef, too many people counting on you USO. MALOSI ! I hope you read this comment, my entire family and I are cheering for you as well as the thousands who view this channel .
Thank you so much for the love and support. We greatly appreciate you guys watching much love.❤❤
Rita, you're absolutely incredible! Your strength and resilience remind me so much of the powerful women in my life-my mum and sisters. You don't receive enough verbal appreciation from your husband, but I want you to know how much your tough love and authenticity resonate - it's truly inspiring! I pray for healing powers over Chef and may God continue to bless you all ❤
Thank you for your kind words and prayers, it means a lot to us 🙏❤️😊
You need to make sure you take care of yourself too, sis. That’s a lot of stress that you’re taking upon yourself to care for Chef and your kids. Alofa atu❤️🙏🏽❤️
Thank you so much. I really really appreciate that much love and God bless.❤❤
My heart goes out to you and your wife and family Chef! I work in the hospital and I know that dialysis is not an easy process for anyone to go through, but I also know a lot of people who have lived a long, and fulfilling life STILL despite dialysis. I pray that God refreshes and renews all your strength through this time. 🙏 God's strength is perfect in our weakness! God bless you!
Thank you for your prayers and for watching! 🙏❤️😊
Prayers for healing and strength for you Rita 🙏🏼♥️
Thank you so much for watching and we appreciate you praying for our family❤❤
I couldn’t help but cry with this video 😢 I’m sorry , sending you love and prayers for the health of your husband and to you and the kids , faamalosi Pea oe papa and take care 🙏♥️
Thank you for your prayers and for watching. 🙏❤️😊
Chef your wrong uso! Your wife is right. It’s the food. When you said I’ve been sick that cause of the food that you were eating. When i will watch you and your family eat. From fasi povi, turkey tail, a lot of salt etc.. that’s what causes gout, diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney failure. American food is not like Samoa food. Samoa is organic our foods here are all chemicals and processed foods, fast foods. All cause sickness in your body. Keep GOD in your heart and also don’t just count on dyalisis. Put your name in the kidney transplant list. Find you a donor they matches you. Like family or close friends. You got this chef with god anything is possible. I’ve been there. Plus you can set a healthy example for your 2 younger boys. No more pisupo for the lol. Stay blessed. And you have an awesome wife with a good heart! 🙏🏽🤎🙏🏽
Thank you so much for the love and support, we really appreciate it 🙏🏽🤎🙏🏽
Aww😢 Malo Rita le loko koa! Having too endure being a Father and Mother all in one, your amazing 👏 Talofae Chef, God has you, your a good man, praying for you Chef and especially your family. May the Good Lord give Rita all the strength 💪 too hold the fort..
Faafetai lava mo le maimoa mai and thank you for the prayers 🙏❤️
Rita, I know you are a super mom, make sure to take care of yourself, your families will be so lost if anything happen to you, always keep you guys in our prayer. ❤
Thank you so much for the love and prayers, we really appreciate it! 🙏❤️😊
You’re doing great Mrs. Rita. Yes food plays a big factor in our health. I did notice that Chef likes to eat very fast in older videos, and enjoying your food and eating at a slower pace is better. Have you thought of putting the water dispenser to the right of the deep freezer and just plug it into an extension cord? That’s a lot of weight to lift that machine up!
Alofagia e Le Atua lou feagai ai ma gasegase o le Tino Chef...,aoga kele le video lea for us fans e kakau a ga iai le kaimi e faamuamua ai le soifua maloloina ,alolofa atu iinei Samoa..God Bless.
💯 Agree Rita. Its the food. What we put into our mouths really matter. Its probably hard for Chef to accept that its the food because we LOVE our Island food, but sometimes our island diet and our way of cooking involves us using alot of salt and we become used to it, which aint good for our kidneys, and heart causing in turn lifelong health issues in the long run.
Be strong Chef it's hard but you will get better, it took me the whole year to come to terms with dialysis too, i hated going to every session but it wasn't till the beginning of this year i started to come to terms with it and i changed to home care training where i feel better that i will be handling my own T-line until my fistula matures as I've already had 6 T-libes and now 2 fistulas so be strong and it will get better as time goes by alifa atu and all the best for your sessions and dialysis does tire you out after every session ❤
Kia Ora Arohanui from Aotearoa 💝 good to see chef home with the family and the beautiful home cooking Amene 🙏🙏🙏
Don't cry Chef, be strong ❤ May our Loving Father watch over you, give you strength to help you through your treatment. Rita, you are strong beyond words. You are an inspiration to your children and for us who watch your channel. May our Heavenly Father keep you and your family safe and loved within His caring hands 💞
The soup looks so good Rita. Gardenia lol she’s the soup taster ❤😊 cutie
Awee Chef, you keep encouraging yourself and we are praying that you continue to get stronger day by day ❤
I cried with you Chef 😢 stay strong.
God, is watching over your family. I believe that totally. Thank you for sharing, your good and your sad times.
Love you guys ❤❤❤ God bless
Thank you for the love and prayers, it means a lot Faye ❤️🙏
Rita you are honest ❤ it’s a lesson for most of us 😊but this is the reality of not looking after our health. Malo onosai e le faigofie Le galuega but God is our strength ❤ you are a strong woman of God I can see that throughout all your videos ❤
Thank you so much for watching. I appreciate the love and support towards our family channel. Much love and respect.❤❤😊
Chef, I know it’s got to be a tough time for you right now going from free to now being dependent on dialysis, but keeping a positive outlook is so important for you and your family; mental health affects physical health. You are blessed to have many more days ahead to love on your beautiful wife and young children. You’ve got this.
Thank you for the encouragement 🙏❤️😊 grateful for the awesome support ❤❤
Keep the Faith Chef!no matter what your health issues are God Is Able and Always Faithful.Enjoy the rest of the week,hands down to you Rita for keeping it together👏👏God Bless Afulu Family🙏❤️❤️
Talofa e, you reminded me so much of my husband when he first started with his dialysis. Faimai laga tala iai a’u sa sili ai pe aga oti 😢pls I’m not saying that it’s not good but it’s how he feels about the treatment just like how you feel. He was on dialysis for only à year and 6 months before he was called. Yes you should be grateful and thankful that it prolongs your life to be with your loved ones. There were times I felt his pain and agony cause of the treatment but I never showed it. We had plans to move to Alaska for his dialysis but it didn’t happen. Now I’m here with my children and grandkids we missed him so much 😢. It’s a healing process for me especially to be in a different environment. We just moved here during the holidays and decided to stay, home will always be home in American Samoa but spending time with family is more important than anything else in the world. I hope and pray that all will be well with your treatment. Prayers for better days ahead and good health to you. God bless your family and much alofa the Tagovailoa family ❤🥰♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi chef and family. Praying for healing over you. Keep up with your dialysis and do the best you can to stay healthy. It’s your lifestyle and the foods you eat can all contribute to what’s going on.
Keep a positive attitude and I know you’ll pull through this
Thank you for your prayers and words of encouragement! 🙏❤️😊really grateful and appreciative ❤
Hang in there Rita. I see how hard you work for your family. Chef needs you and your support now more than ever. We are rooting for you all. Take care and God bless
Be strong Rita n chef I feel emotional watching him struggling trying explain why he got sick kalofae ❤leai se mea E faigata le Alii ia maua pea Lou malosi aua le mafutaga ma gai kids g alofa atu m oukou uma n stay safe.
Why did this video make me cry watching Chef tell his story😩I watched my dad go through it, &he had passed away when I was 18yers old. He lived through dialysis for 10yrs &sadly God called him to heaven at the age of 50😢so I defs get why ur emotional. Have been a fan from day one, know that God will never leave nor forsake his people. It’s not ur time yet, you have alot ahead of you chef! All glory to God for granting another life so you could watch ur kids grow &spend time with ur fams esp your wife🥹Gods love &blessings from NZ♥️
Rita, you are strong, smart, loving, resilient, an anchor and the gorilla glue for your family. Remember to take time to care for yourself as well.❤
Really appreciate the love and support ❤❤
I agree 100% with sis Rita it’s the foods we eat! Sis Rita please make sure you are taking care of yourself! It’s not an easy job doing what you have to do every day! Seeing Davita reminds me of when my mom was on Dialysis. 😢 Davita has lots of resources that can help with managing your fluid intake & cooking meals for you Chef, take advantage of it! We met a lady that was also on Dialysis that has been on Dialysis for over 20 years (she was on her 14th year when my mom started). You can do this Chef! 🙏🏽 Glad Thomas is feeling better & back to school! Stay safe & blessed out there! 🙏🏽❤️
Thank you for the love and support! We appreciate it. 🙏❤️😊
It’s hard for a man who has been strong and eaten whatever he wants, worked hard all his life to this scare, is not an easy feat.
Chef you have more to gain what you have in front of you is everything. I love watching your family’s channel and eagerly wait for updates and new content. We here who watch and love your family are surely cheering and praying for your recovery and happiness. Dialysis is truly not the end, my daughter and dad had to go through dialysis, I know that people can be on dialysis and live happy lives for many
Many years. In the beginning it’s hard to be optimistic, but you have a strong and wonderful wife and beautiful family.
Rita please take care of yourself. Sometimes whether you want or like to or not you have to take time out for yourself. Self care is so important for your own wellbeing. Sending much love, healing, peace and strength over the ocean🙏🏾💛
😢yes it’s hard but Heavenly Father is on our side ❤❤much love and God bless ❤❤
Hope all goes well for you and your family You are a very strong woman by the way you are doing everything for your family God bless you and your family and hope chef wake up and agree it’s what he’s eating that’s why he’s like thats not his theory
It’s crazy when we neglect our health and then hate and complain about the things we must do to stay alive. Eating the wrong kinds of food for many years will eventually catch up with us and result in poor health with many different health issues, not just gout and diabetes. Unfortunately, dialysis is a necessary evil for many diabetics. Recognizing and owning the role we played in how we got to that point is going to help get us thru the process easier. We may still hate it, but we’ll be in better head space to deal with it. We may not get another opportunity to get it together. It’s a hard lesson to learn for all of us, not just the patient. 🙏💕
Yes you’re right about that 😊❤ the food we eat will catch up with us later on in life 😊 thank you so much for watching much love and God bless❤❤
Sa’o lelei Rita, your eating chef has been unhealthy. Don’t kid yourself it’s the wrong foods you been eating‘cause we’ve been watching. But praying you’ll get better
Chef, your wife is 100% correct. I'm just a stranger on youtube but i always feel for fellow humans, especially Polynesians as i can relate. Us islanders are too stubborn for our own good. Growing up as a poverty kid in Samoa, it was all about Quantity, not Quality. Didn't help the fact that we did not have much knowledge on the food that is being shipped in our island when we had everything that we need to consume right in our backyard. Knowing what i know now, i'd 100 percent advocate for the health of our future generation in Samoa. Your health might have been diminished, but it's never too late to exercise and keep active in hopes for the longevity of life to create more memories with your beautiful family especially since the kids are still very young. DO IT FOR THEM. 🙏 manuia le Aso

Thank You for sharing your video. I appreciate what your family does on UA-cam. I had gout for 25 years until I changed my diet in Jan 2024. I got on a carnivore diet a week later the gout disappeared. Inflammation was reduced dramatically. We can fix all our health problems by eating the right food and drinking the right water. Cheers guys.
Faamalosi Chef, make the change for the kids to follow! God Bless 😎(aua le popole ua leai se kaepovi ile system a Chef leva ga kiligi le kamaloa a mum)

It is food. My father was in denial and would convince himself that it was everything BUT food lol But at the end of the day, we have to take accountability for our choices, good and bad. You have to take control of your life and claim healing. Easier said than done, but it is possible. Your wife and kids need you. Praying for healing and strength. May Heavenly Father continue to bless your needs and your family ❤

LIVE FOR TODAY
HOPE FOR TOMORROW.
My father was Samoan. Our culture is very food centered. Food is such a social event in our culture. It is hard to give up all the foods that are so embedded in our families and lives. Our whole family had to change our diet because if we ate the foods dad loved so much in front of him he couldn't resist eating some too. Which hurt his kidneys and his heart. It was very hard for my father and sometimes he would have some "cheat days" and eat his pisupo, his green bananas, taro, panikeke, koko,palusami Luau etc. We only ate our native foods on Sundays But through moderation he was able to live longer and we were happy to get the extra time. His kidneys were so bad, as was his heart but we were blessed with more time and thank God for that. Faifai Lemu. God Bless your family We enjoy watching your channel.
Get well chef praying for you and your family
Your are truly blessed! Rita is such a wonderful mother and wife. she is all you need Pray that God will continue to heal you chef and restore your health alofa atu

Here's to a good recovery Chef. Take care. You do a great job mum.😊❤
Love you Chef ❤️. Praying Gods favor over you and the family. Rita you are one inspirational woman. Keep going family. I love you guys ❤❤❤❤
I’m so sorry chef🙏🏻❤️I get what he’s trying to say😞he knows what he has to do to get better. What he’s saying is, it’s not just the food! His kidneys are shut from at least 20 years back from other things as well. We all need to back off and let this family be! We can obviously see how hurt and frustrated they are. Let’s all relax and enjoy the videos. We’re here to support in any way we can😘when our family goes through sad times or bad times, we have a motto we say to each other. This too shall pass🙏🏻😘❤️hopefully it works for you as well as it does for us🙏🏻❤️I know it’ll get better and you’ll all learn to cope with your situation soon. One step at a time but you’ll get there and with God on your side. Praying for better days ahead for your family🙏🏻❤️
Rita you are right it’s all about the wrong foods ,I am Fijian/Tongan and we love our food but the key is too eat the right food to prolong our life ,I pray that Chef we fully recover and May God bless your Family
Stay strong chef !! God will never forsake you and your little family !! Stay positive!!! Always enjoy watching your guys videos !! God bless you guys always!!
That's your HEARTBEAT. 😅😍 19:22
I been watching for 2 years now , I finally started using my own UA-cam channel. So I am officially a subscriber 🎉❤
Hi Aunty Rita (hope you don’t mind me calling you aunty 😊)
May Jesus Christ give you the strength of the Holy Spirit to keep moving forward with all that you have on your plate. May Chef be healed in the name of JESUS CHRIST so that you may be a Team again! I stand with Everton in prayer Chef. We miss your presence and jokes. 😅 Aunty Rita , in the midst of it all, I pray that you remember to lean on to God. Alofa aku , looking forward for the next ❤
Keep fighting Chef! The Lord has got your back ❤️🙏🏽
Rita's reaction to Chef is classic 😂😂😂 Malo a le onosai Rita faapea foi Chef i gasegase o le tino. Sending you and yours prayers of hope and love in the sacred name o le Faaola alofa atu 🙏❤🎉
❤❤❤ We give unto God for all his blessings. Aww this one is hard to watch. Chef, lean onto God for he makes the impossible possible. I can tell you going through it mentally and emotionally. Be strong, your Faith will help you see better days. No one knows what you are going through, but you have a beautiful family who loves you and care for your well being. Take care of yourself both physically and mentally. I know you may seem like you lost so much of the things you love and feel you can't achieve your goals Chef, but who said. You can still accomplish so much Chef, you just may have to adjust how you accomplish your goals differently🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 Trust in God because he will help you and he will never leave you. God bless you mama Rita, I'm glad you guys posted this video because it shares Chef's experience and how he is going through some tough waters right now. But having you beside him, that is a blessing in itself. Thank you for loving hard and taking care of your family the way you do❤️❤️❤️ How are you doing? Make sure to take care of you too. Thank you Afulu Family. We love you guys and praying for Chef, Rita and your family. Gardenia is growing up too fast. Hope Rona and Romeo settled fine in GA. Pio and his wife get to visit you guys soon. Take care and God bless🤙🏼🤙🏼
Unfortunately it is the food that eventually led to diabetes, gout, and high blood pressure/cholesterol. So common in us Samoans because of our diet. Chef, I know you are having a hard time coming to terms with your new life. Try to stay positive, regardless of the situation… you are alive and present with your family. Everything else pales in comparison to this. Rita, you are a true blessing to your family, remember to take care of yourself also. ❤️❤️
Talofa fam. We miss you guys. Malo lava le ogosai i suiga o le soifuaga. O le tatalo lava ma le usitai i le fomai. Glad Moe is getting his treatment to get back his strength. New patients going through dialysis takes a while before they get strong and back to where they need to be. You won’t get back to 100% but you will get the strength to continue. You just gotta do your part Moe to take care of yourself and if you wanna continue to be with your family. Be strong and continue to fight for yourself and your family.
Viia le Alii, ae maise lava ia oe Rita i le gafa ma tiute o le aiga. Our prayers to your family as you encounter this new change in your family. We love you guys and hope for better days ahead.
Chef fight for not only you. But for your loving, suppoive wife who is the greatest woman that has always stuck by you. please do not give up. Prayers to you Rita and the family ❤❤❤❤
Love you Chef🫶💙I’ve seen a lot of people live longer because of dialysis. So wonderful that you were given this option. We’ve witnessed you & your family try your best to eat clean & reverse any food-related illnesses. Mālo lava le onosa’i I talavai. Fa’amālo fo’i I si ou to’alua ia Rita ma le fanau I le lagolago malosi mo oe le tamā. Prayers & love coming your way🙌❣️
Prayers up for the Afulu family ❤❤❤ take care of thy mother cuz she knows best❤❤❤
Chef Aua fia poko lol your wife is right. There’s a saying “You are what you eat” You are where you at bc of the choices you make which is the unhealthy food you eat. You need to implement more greens (vegetables) in your food and drink more water. It will lower your BP, help diabetics and especially help your kidneys, Liver and heart. Our people are guilty of this but yet they want to support but support wrong. Don’t tell me “We support you” instead of saying….”Sole, that’s unhealthy stop eating that” stop eating fast food especially for the kids. That isnt food, it’s processed food!! Just be careful cause the doctors and nurses, they don’t look out for our best interest. All they’re doing is feeding Pharma and how they get paid is making sure that they just prescribe you with prescription that kills your body thats why it’s better to always take natural supplements. Ia that’s my gooooood story! lol Manuia le aso
Uso, you have an amazing family. Take care of yourself for them. God bless.
Faamalosi Chef. Aua e te loto vaivai i se mea tasi. Your children are watching how we react to lifes challenges in this life. Fight! fight! You can beat this. Not to survive but to thrive. alofa atu 💚
Your wife is right Chef! It’s all about what we choose to put in our bodies that’ll affect us later on in life. Hoping you get on a healthier journey for yourself and family. Prayers and blessings to you all!🙏🏾🫶🏾✨
Hi Rita, good to see you and family. God bless you all ae maise oe. If Chef has medicaid or Medicare you can ask Davita if they know of any local transportation programs. Sometimes those programs are free, it would save you time and gas. You must use all of the local resources so that you don't get burned out.
Faamanuia Le Atua I ia te oe ma le
Stay strong, Rita & Chef! Your going through a tough & challenging time, but God is good and he can get you through it. But your right Rita, diet plays a big part in your well being. Eating well, exercise & reducing salt, sugar & fats can help improve your health. Take care & will be praying for you & your family! 🙏🙏
God Bless You 😭😭
Talofa Chef, Rita and family. It's so emotional watching Chef doesn't look well, as he used to be. Chef, aua ete loto vaivai, o loo soifua lo tatou Atua, e leai se mea e faigata ia te ia. Sis Rita, look after yourself as well. I shared before our experiences with dialasys to you sis. The damaged is done, but dialasys is the only treatment. Thats what doctors advice and their findings.God is our saviour whom we asked for a miracle. We always remember your family in our prayers. Stay positive and tahe care.
Love heaps.

Hafa Adai, Uncle Chef and family from Guam! God bless you all. Thank you for sharing Uncle Chef's journey. Please give me a shout-out! My name is Julio, and I'm from the tropical island of Guam. I enjoy watching your videos daily. It brings warmth and happiness to my family. Please try this local recipe from Guam. It is called estufao (chicken soup). The ingredients are basic (soy sauce, onions, garlic, black pepper, garlic powder, vinegar, and lemon). Boil chicken till cooked. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and pour. Add coconut milk (optional but highly recommended) and enjoy.
Chef you have to accept reality that you are wrong. Rita is right. Its the choices and food you eat. But lets be accountable with our choices. Malo Rita ogosai warm hugs to you
Chef listen to your wife! lol. God bless you and your family! I wish you good health and a full recovery!

Remove all ailments from him so that he can continue to live in peace and harmony with his loving family, who really need him.
Cover their home and their cars under Your Precious Blood, and guide them safely to and from their destinations."

Much love to everyone who goes through dialysis.. it really isn't an easy thing to do.. but the lord knows your heart Chef, keep pushing through for the sake of your family, YOU ARE LOVED by so many 🥰
I lost my mum to renal kidney failure (19 years ago) because of all the food she was eating Chef, especially our pacific island people who love ulu puaa, taro, tomatoes, Luau, Mamoe, all the fatty foods 🫣 but it's how our parents and there parents grew up. My mum was on dialysis for 10 years, and we did dialysis at home for the last few years of her life, she was over it 😔.. so watching your story brings back alot of memories.. Even though you didnt have to, thank you for sharing your story to the UA-cam world as it might help someone watching.
God Bless you and your family
❤❤❤
Wishing you all the best with your dialysis Chef. Sister Rita you are surely one of a kind. Very strong woman love your vlogs, Alofa atu❤️
