"In three words, I can sum up everything I've learned about life. It goes on."
45 days ago, I lost my grandfather. He was probably the family member I cherished most, and likewise, I was said to be his pride and joy.
Similar to Tony's father in the show After Life, my grandpa also had dementia. He couldn't remember me or the rest of his family, called out for dead relatives, and was confused most of the time. And like Tony, I used to say that maybe death would be preferable to being terminally ill and riddled with multiple conditions.
But when he did die, I felt crushed. I was happy that he was no longer in pain, but absolutely crushed by the fact that now there was absolutely no hope that he would recover.
I miss him a lot, both his healthy state, and bedridden state. When he was bedridden he'd be the only person I let hug me, and his warm presence was my main source of comfort. When he was healthy, he'd always buy me snacks, help sharpen my pencils for school, and always took pride in my academics. However since he got ill, I slowly lost my touch with my academics and other areas in life. But at his funeral I made him a vow: to make him proud. And I'll take that promise with me to the grave.
Another thing I'd bring with me to my grave would be my grandfather's love for me. The thing about love, is that no matter what plane of existence we're in, love always will transcend death.
After Life is one of the best shows I've ever seen, and rewatching it was my odd way of coping with my grief. I relate so much to Tony's character and the way he percieves life, and this entire show is a gem and definitely worth watching if you haven't yet. The show explores how it's like to suffer the loss of a loved one, and how there's always more to life. Season 3 is coming out on January 14 next year, so make sure to catch it when it's out. This show will hit deep to anyone that's lost a loved one.
This took me ages to make. I wanted to use all my effort as it's in honour of my grandpa. I kept procrastinating because doing this project hurt me a lot mentally, but the final product was worth it. Thanks to everybody who watched this video and for taking your time to read this lengthy description.
Edit: Some of you guys have asked me why I added 2 rather long clips of Tony's father in this video, which had no proper relevance to the edit. I merely added them as they reminded me of my dear grandfather, who had dementia himself and acted strikingly similar to Ray in After Life. My grandpa used to finish up random childhood nursery rhymes we sang to him, even though he could not even remember our names. And whenever he did remember our names, those moments were very emotional for us all, and he always made the funniest remarks that cheered us up. Although for so long I whined about how I lost him due to his dementia 3 years ago, during those moments I still knew a part of his former self was always there, as suggested by those clips.

"I'd rather live missing him than for him to live missing me. That's how much I love him."

My Mammy died after 7 years of vascular dementia. I and my brother cared for her 24/7 and I have massively struggled to get over her death
What you are done here is absolutely beautiful and I have found it helps me with my mental health and trying to make sense of the world without her
Thank you so much
Kieran
I have dementia and I've already said to my wife if you want to put me in a home when I get bad then do so, I won't mind at all because it's for her not me
@@DaveB-gm9pj my Mammy had vascular dementia and was bedridden for the last seven years of which my older brother cared for her with a little help from me. We covered her bedroom in photos and memories of her life and it was very helpful to prompt and remind her of her life and her family. She died at the age of 97 surrounded by love but the hard fact is that we had the time to do that and most people don't. whatever you do I am sure it will be for the best and I wish you and your wife all the best for the future
God bless you all

Losing someone you love is the hardest thing in the world. Sometimes I don’t think I’ll ever heal. Miss you so much, not a day goes by that I don’t think of you
I felt so much empathy watching this show.ur right losing somebody I love is a harrowing experience to live through,tore the heart out of me.4yrs and not a day goes by without thinking of my angel.but love is eternal and I save myself by thinking wht a privilege it was to bask in her light and love
I'm so sorry for your loss. We will both make it through this. Much love@@NatBustamante
@@silenz_178 they say after every dark night there comes a dawn
thank you ricky for this show.. i lost my beautiful angel to cancer last year and im still hurting... to anyone who has lost their better half.. hang in there.. it might not get any easier.. but your power to push through that pain is far greater than you can imagine! im proud of you for not giving up! be the person your better half fell inlove with.. its not easy.. but its possible.
I lost my wife six months ago, and i am still lost. She was my soilmate and best friend, it still seems like too much to take. Pray for me.
@@ToneSandvigI will my friend
You'll carry the ones you love with you the entirety of your life. Their memory makes you who you are. I'm sure he's proud
Well, you pulled a ‘’Tony’’ here man. Thank you for editing this together. Brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful work. Sorry for your loss. Time does heal. Not everything, but it gets better, no doubt. Thank you for sharing.
It's perfect. I'm absolutely sure this would have made your grandpa proud. Deeply sorry for your loss❤
This says it all. I can’t move on. The sadness doesn’t go away.
Me too pain is unbearable sometimes ❤
I can’t really say anything other than I sympathize with you. Any more than that is needless I believe. Though your love and grief over your grandfather permeates throughout this edit and through your words. In a way, I can empathize with your mental state. All I can say is that may your grandpa be happy and well wherever he is and that I hope you’ll be proud of yourself as much as your grandfather is. This was a great edit. Take your time.

Thanks so much for your sympathy Aster. And yeah, I hope I can become the man my grandfather always envisioned, and to bring pride upon my name and his
You’re getting there. I think so with genuine respect. However, there’s no need to thank me. It’s just being human. Thank you for this edit.
This is excellently put together!!! I'm here because I'm still grieving for my daughter still after 9 years. I wish you all the best and I think what you have created here is really special ❤
I would never be who I want to be without you
I love you
Thank you for sharing. The writing on this show is extraordinary. One of my favorites.
Bless you mate and rest in peace for your grandpa. They’d have been proud of this beautiful art you’ve crafted. ❤️
Thank you 💞💞
Stay strong, friend. Make your grandfather prouder. I guarantee he's looking down on you smiling and proud already, so go make him even prouder. ❤️
Thanks! And I definitely will
Great editing work! Love this show have watched all episodes probably 6 times !
My grandmother had Alzheimers.. she couldn't remember who i was for 7 years... then a week before she passed... after feeding her breakfast... I sat talking with her.. and as i got up to leave, I asked her if she knew who i was and she said "you're my Jessie" and I replied "i love you grandma" I then smiled and walked out.. dropped the dishes in the sink and hitnmy knees. I cried like a baby. I had already lost my parents before she got sick so she was all i had left.
4 days later she started going down hill. She had congestive heart failure.. thats what killed her eventually.
Its been 4 years now... I miss her and my mom so much. Cancer and Alzheimers take so much...
There have been a couple of doctors over the years who have tried and tested cures for cancer and their reputations get utterly destroyed. Im not going into details, but, at least in America, cancer is a massive money-maker and will never be cured for this reason. Money has always been more important than life to the people running things. It's so sad.
I haven't felt more depressed while watching the show, or hearing about the first time your grandfather died. I can really tell what he meant, means actually, to you if you've made such a beauty. Hope your grandpa does rest in power, sincerely from all your viewers.
Other than that, After Life is a fucking genius show, one of the best I've ever seen. If you haven't seen it, go watch it right now. This edit sums up the show and the music connects so well. Good job Iasonas. I hope we have many more gems like these incoming.
From a hardcore fan/friend
Thanks man, your words mean a lot to me

This show had it all and i'm at a very dark place right now and it made me cry what a show😢💔❤️ Also hope it gets better for you day by day that we make it in the end❤
Beautiful mate. Stay well love to you all
Thank you so much!
I dont think ur meant to heal. The pain is there to remind us the love is real. Just learn to manage it and keep moving. ❤
Masterpiece truly amazing
I lost my mother after caring for her for seven years. This is exactly what I feel
Beautiful.
I miss my cat so much

😭
