Helping AFE survivor & cardiac arrest survivor and their family with free cleaning (Part 2)

- Опубліковано 29 лип 2023
- I am helping this family of 6 by cleaning their home for free after years of neglect due to the after effects of some health complications and bankruptcy. In 2014, after giving birth to her youngest child, Mom had an amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) and nearly died from this rare complication. She went into a coma and had some anoxic brain damage. Some of the long-term effects of this include neurologic impairment, memory loss, emotional and psychological effects, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Because of this, it has been difficult for her to manage day to day things like she used to and Dad had to try to pick up the slack, but when he had a mitral valve prolapse and went into cardiac arrest in December 2021, he, too, had long-term effects from this, causing things to become even harder to manage around the house. They have many other challenges as well so, when they reached out for help, I was more than happy to give them a hand with getting things back under control.

I’m so glad your son didn’t have any complications with the bullet! 🎉
😊❤️🙏
Being in survival mode means everything but keeping yourself and your family alive. Everything else can seem exhausting and overwhelming. I'm glad this family had you to help.
Yes! Love the animals, thank you for showing them
I can empathize with this family and what they’ve been going through. I was diagnosed at 18 with MVP, then at 44 with cardiomyopathy (heart failure). At 55 I had a life saving heart transplant and now 5 1/2 years later I’m still “recovering” from the after effects of surgery, specifically cognitive issues. My memory is awful and my organization and cleaning skills have suffered but I am working through it. This mom is not alone!
That makes my heart ache for you. I'm so sorry you've been through so much! It really does help to know you're not alone though, doesn't it. I know she reads these comments and I know she will love to know that she is not alone either. Thank you for commenting!
So happy you fighting against and you are not give up being alive healthy! You made it on earth! I think you would share your experience health with people who needs to know expect and needs help with same health heart.
Yes, I think life happens and cleaning becomes a low priority.
@@Cheirosa81yes, sometimes. And it’s great that there are folks to help, because the clean environment is important when folks are having serious health issues.♥️✌️
I had no idea that an operation for the heart could affect the mind like this. I hope you make a full recovery one day ❤
The scraping and scrubbing sounds are sssooooo satisfying and tingly! 🧽💖
Yes, they are!
Kids do the craziest things. So glad your son is ok. 🙏
That poor family! They've really been through so much. What an angel you are to help them. Another wonderful job!! Thank you for doing this. ❤
Thanks so much for watching!
Back when my sweet bunny was alive, it was so much work to keep his pellets, poop, hay, bedding cleaned up in the kitchen. I wouldn’t have had it any other way with him in the kitchen area because buns are very social intelligent creatures. Plus I really enjoyed his company too as much as he enjoyed mine. Seeing their pigs brought back some good memories, i can still smell his hay.
Thank you Bonnie for taking care of this family. I cant imagine the relief they felt when you showed ready to go and be Super Woman. I don’t know how you do it😊
So nice that you’ve been able to help this much deserving family who has been through so much. I enjoy cleaning and organizing too. It helps my OCD and anxiety to focus on something else, keeps you physically busy and always a difference afterwards. You are an amazing cleaner, compassionate and truly care about those you help. I love how you involved the kiddos too, that makes them feel good about being a part of it. Great job and love your videos❤
You're so kind! Thanks so much!
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp you’re very welcome, you’re doing awesome, wish you much success ♥️
You posted another video just in time! I was going through withdrawal. I've binge- watched all your videos. You are a fantastic cleaner, especially since you're having to use basic cleansers because if the parrot. My heart goes out to this family with all their struggles. Prayers for health for them, and prayers of health and strength for you in your sweet endeavor to minister to others by cleaning!
I love your super nice comments! They are very motivating! Thanks so much for your prayers and for your support!
I watch a lot of cleaning videos, and you’ve become my favorite. You do such a good job and your voice is so calming.
I can’t believe how clean you got that vent hood, considering you couldn’t even use strong chemicals!
Oh my gosh, you're so sweet! I was really struggling with my voice over on this one (as I mentioned at the end of the video). My head was just feeling foggy and I was having a hard time getting my thoughts out, so that really means a lot for you to say that as I didn't think I did that great with this one. And your favorite?! Wow, I'm so honored!! ❤😊
You are my favorite to watch also.
Always so thoughtful and kind to those you are helping.
Always encouraging your viewers to speak positively and respectfully regard the situations the individuals are going through. 😊😊
So much better! Their health will be impacted in a good way from this. And the organizing will help with thinking-if your surroundings are too cluttered, it adds to cognitive difficulties!
Thx for the update on your son. I'm glad he didn't need surgery.
Remarkable transformation! And she did great with the bins.
That fan, and those under cabinets remind me so much of what I had in my home before! That fan area was ridiculous! It was grungy and impossible to clean. Now I have a different set up! Great work! ❤
I am OCD about clean floors and having a clean organized home especially the kitchen. I have realized my through counseling that my obsessive tendencies are the result of childhood experiences. Your patience and understanding of what people have gone through and are going through is amazing. I love to see how you work your magic with seemingly impossible tasks while protecting the privacy of your clients.
The bullet “birth story” had me laughing so hard! 🤣 Poor guy, I’m glad he didn’t need surgery!
LOL, me too!
OUTSTANDING cleaning video!! Love your narration and love the scratching sounds. Thank goodness your son is OK and did not require surgery. Congratulations also on the growth of your channel, it is great!!!
Thank you so much!
Glad that the animals are on tile floor, easier to clean I guess, but also it’s near their kitchen table. Maybe they can figure out another place to put them later.
You did a super great job!
Thank you for all you do for others, and for the joy you give me in watching your videos. I think I've finally figured out how to do a super thanks.
Oh my goodness, Beth! Thank you so much. I really appreciate it!!❤
Amazing!! You gave them their house back. She did a great job decluttering. I am sure they feel more at peace in their space which is good for their over all well being. 🙏❤️
Thank you! She really has done so well. I've been super impressed!
Enjoying this video, you're such a great person to help them out. With the various issues the parents are dealing with would it be helpful to give them some chore/cleaning schedules? It might help them if they all can do 2-3 things daily and teach the kids to help if they are old enough - the guinea pigs look well taken care of so I think the kids could be a lot of help 😊
You have the right idea! I'm pleased to report that she actually has been creating some new habits now that things are a bit more manageable. They have a routine with their dishes in the morning now to where they put them straight in the dishwasher rather than letting them pile up throughout the day and there were also a couple other routines that she mentioned they are now doing. I think the biggest task was just getting through all the junk that had piled up, but now that most of that is done, I have high hopes that they will stay on top of it! The kids are also cleaning out the guinea pigs' cage weekly. They are doing great!
Oh my word! Thank you for helping this family! The transformation was incredible!!
Thank you!
Incredible job hon. I can relate to that thought process. Getting to 6 decades has increased it big time. Smh. I can’t treat my adhd due to my epilepsy. Little late in life as gpa would say. He passed 8 months ago from third with colon cancer. We been living here with him for last 7 yrs. He operated a wood repairing, restoration, refinishing, restoring flood damage molded furniture from hurricane Harvey and Ike. Needless to say his work was outstanding. Now we have tons of expensive wood species and tools. Overwhelming is an understatement. Plus they lived here since 1969. Our goal is to deal with this so we don’t leave it for our own kids to deal with. I never dealt with grief. Depression is real. We shut down. We isolate ourselves to decompress. I just so appreciate how you and Midwest majic guy understand all these different mental health issues. It confirms we are not crazy. Hugs sweetheart onto the next video lol. Oh ya peroxide works on tile grout so does Bar Keepers Friend. Also for mold and mildew. I used straight bleach in shower it was still there after bleach soak. I rinsed it off, got the peroxide and honey I watched it disappear before my eyes. It was in the wind sill area. So I was standing up on side of tub. We have shower head. But ya peroxide dissolved or did something to it cuz mildew/ mold was gone. Hehehe 🥳💕🥰💯❤️ P.S. sorry I ramble lol brain goes faster than I can speak write or type lol. Talking bout bullet I knew someone swallowed toothpick smh yes he had to have surgery
Oh my goodness, that does sound overwhelming! That's very cool, though, that he could restore stuff like that. I'm sure it was much appreciated by those whom he restored those for. And, isn't that crazy about bleach and mold? I actually first heard that it can make the problem worse from Mack, and, sure enough, there are a lot of articles out there about that very thing. But, yes, hydrogen peroxide is another great one for mold. Glad to know it worked for you. And, ouch, a toothpick?! That sounds pretty scary, actually.
First person Ive watched who cleans walls especially kitchen. I hate dirty walls even if counter and floors are cleaned
Right?! It's not truly clean unless the walls are clean, too!
I love how you leave the scrubbing sounds in!! It’s so calming for me to hear the scrubbing sounds haha.
You're welcome! I love them, too!
It’s nice to have some videos without music. Talking and actual cleaning sounds don’t bother me at all. I enjoy seeing the transformations and it’s just awesome motivation. ❤
Love the hanger trick.
That kid needs to change his room around. No wonder it doesn’t work for him.
Oh, that was genius putting a cloth over the scraper while using it on the range hood.
Thank you for being so kind, to this family😊
My pleasure!🙏❤️
I think that all you guys that clean for free are amazing. You tackle some of the messiest homes. I wish there was a way that social services could get involved to help with aftercare so that they don't have to let it get to that point again. Thus seems to be a prevalent problem everywhere.
I know. I wish there was a better answer for this problem. Part of the issue is that these people usually are too ashamed to ask for help when it's become this bad, so their options are limited if no one is even aware of the problem. And then things just get worse and worse. I'm happy to be part of the solution, but it's just the tip of the iceberg. I'm happy to see more and more channels popping up like this, helping people in similar situations and bringing awareness to this issue because I think it helps others struggling to not feel so alone and maybe they will reach out for help if they know they aren't the only ones struggling.
Super job! You are a good person to help people like this.
Thank you for all you do! I’m so happy for that family that you are helping. I’m sure it’s been a positive new path for all.
It really has been fun and rewarding to see the changes that this has brought about! Thanks for your support!
Great job, I think it’s great you got her involved too, sometimes people do better with someone being alongside them.everything looked great!❤😊
I totally agree! It's a lot more motivating to clean along with someone else. Thanks for watching!
Another great cleaning! Glad your son had a safe "delivery"! As the mother of a son & the grandmother to 2 boys, my heart goes out to you.
Thank you so much!
Wow, having tile counters makes it so hard to keep the grout clean!! Good for you to take the time to scrub every inch of the grout!!
Appreciate you naming and linking your products. One thing I really like, and if you watch Jamie's Journey, she actually holds her container up to the camera long enough, so you can see the product see what the canister looks like which is very, very helpful. I wish cleaners would do that with mops, vacuums and that sort of product as well. Enjoy your videos!
Thanks for the feedback. I will start holding it up a little longer so you can see what I'm using. Thanks for watching!
How in the world does a child swallow a bullet of that size. No judgment at all, and l love what you share.. You bless many!
Seriously?! He has explained it to me several times and I still just don't get it. My daughter can't even swallow the smallest of pills and here my youngest can swallow an entire large bullet...and on accident?!🤦♀️😜
❤ your ❤ it is in the right place helping others.
I usually choose not to comment however after stumbling across this video and watching everything in its entirety I had too. Young lady God is truly going to bless you over and abundantly for your spirit of humility and unselfish service to others. This family is truly blessed to have your presence in their home as you help them reorganize and start afresh moving onto a new life chapter. You clean the way I was taught to clean before my medical challenges caused me to relinquish that ministry. I will continue to watch and support you because you’re an inspiration to others. God bless your heart……….
Thank you so much for your kind comments! I love that you mention God in your comments because I wouldn't have even thought to start doing this without inspiration from Him. I love helping my fellow brothers and sisters here on Earth and I truly feel blessed for it! Thanks for being here!❤❤😊
You are always amazing and inspiring. You keep it real. Everyone seems to be going through mental issues these days. When you do this I feel like you are doing it for me. Thank you!!
🥰🙏
Wow, look at all that room. Greatvjob Bonnie. Your Oregon Viewer. 😅
What a great job for a deserving family. Your son can really pack some heat!
Lol...I see what you did there! Yes, he can!🤣
Krud Cutter is amazing on getting rid of grease around the stovetop!! You did an amazing job and so did the homeowner! 👏👏👏
I haven't tried that one yet. I'm currently trying out Dirtex at the recommendation of a couple of people, but I like to try all kinds of products to see what I like the best. Sometimes the homeowner will have a different product that I'll try out so I don't have to buy a whole bottle to test it. I'm sure I'll get around to testing out some Krud Cutter!
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp When you spray it on you can immediately see the grease start to drip. I use it on the backsplash behind my stove and even though it might look clean, after I spray on Krud Kutter I can see the grease!
Tell the bird and guinea pigs I said hi!!! Thanks for the introduction to the fur babies! Great job btw. 😊
Also 6:20 thanks for leaving the ASMR scrubbing sounds in too!😂
18:53 This was work!, but extremely satisfying to watch.
Haha! I will tell them "LatherScreamRinse" says hi! Thanks for watching!
I can't believe how clean you got that range hood!
Hi, I just wondered why the parrot couldn't have been moved to another room or a sheet put over his cage while you are cleaning to keep him safe. That oven hood would have been easier to clean with oven cleaner. Thanks, great job!
He probably could have, but I also took it as a challenge to clean without all the heavy chemicals just to show it can be done. But, you're right, the oven hood would have been a lot easier to clean with oven cleaner! I was impressed with how well it worked on the actual oven though.
Wow it looks absolutely amazing it was really nice to see the whole family help as well.
It looks so nice. I know the family will function better and be happier in the clean and organized space. You did so well!
Thanks so much!
I don’t comment much but I try and watch at least one video a day of my favorite cleaning channels to help your algorithms. It’s my way of helping you guys help others. Anyway, I had to jump on real quick to scream, GRANDMA SYCAMORE!!!! I can’t get that bread out here in California and it’s been years since I’ve been to Utah. Please enjoy a sandwich while thinking of me. I’m seriously living vicariously through you right now. Keep doing what you’re doing, you all are saints! Cheers to clean houses and scrumptious bread! It’s also been a while since I’ve had a Morrison’s meat pie. My parents would always stop at the factory and bring home a cooler full of them. There will never be another like it! 😿 Have a wonderful weekend!
I love this so much! That's so sweet of you to do your part in helping the algorithm. I try to do the same thing while I'm cleaning houses, just have my favorite cleaning channels on in the background and listen to them while I'm cleaning. I'm with you on Grandma Sycamore's! I kind of try not to buy it because I know I will end up eating more of it than I should. Probably not the healthiest, but it sure is delicious! I can't say I have ever had a Morrison meat pie.
Thank you for your support! Much appreciated!❤️❤️🙏
@@ABeautifulMessExtremeCle-zl1wp Oh, man!! You missed out!! Those meat pies soaked in au jus were AMAZEBALLS!!! My sweet husband tried baking some years ago and they just weren’t the same. :( I seriously need to find a store that ships that bread though. I’m Jonesing for some now so badly!! 😹
Love watching you clean!
I'm so glad! Thank you!
You do a fantastic job! Blessings!
Thank you so much!
Glad to hear your son had he’s ‘baby’ 🤣 TG he didn’t need surgery. The transformation in each area of the kitchen/dining is unbelievable. Well done to you all on a fantastic job done. Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 🙇♀️👏💪👍🙏💐
Wow! Great job.
Thank you!❤😊
Thank God for your son 🙏🏾
God bless them and you are doing amazing great job here God bless you 🙏❤️
🥰
Wow, that was one of the most satisfying before and after shots I have ever seen. You and this family did an excellent job!

Huge improvement! ❤👏🏻
I'm so happy to have discovered your channel. I think it's better than all the other channels, it's different in all the right ways. Keep going! And keep including laundry, i love it! 😊

This was awesome
I’ve recently found your channel and absolutely love watching you clean and listening to your voice overs. You are an incredible human being who is changing so many lives ❤
Thank you so much! You're so kind!
Thank you so much for helping this family 😊🎉
Amazing job! It looks great! 🩷🩷
Thank you!
What an amazing blessing you are to this, well deserving family.
Can’t wait to see the whole house getting cleaned.
I understand when housework just gets too overwhelming over a period of time. It’s just builds up and builds up until it is way outa control and you need help.
I’m glad this mum was able to reach out to you for help. It’s the start of a long recovery road for them now.
It’s also great to see that all the family is helping in the clean up.
Good luck to the family.
blessings from TERANG Victoria Australia 🇦🇺

Thanks!
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you. ❤️🙏
Wow. Great job.
Thank you!
This was a great video! You work so hard and the payoff is amazing. Great job.❤
Thank you so much!!
Overhead cleaning, like the under range hood, is tough on the arms. It seems as if you need twice the strength to scrub “up” versus “down.”
Seriously! My shoulders and arms were getting tired!
Congrats to your son. That must have been a difficult situation to explain at the hospital.
What a wonderful gift you gave this mom at such a difficult time in her life.
Lol...yes, it was an odd thing to happen. But we got a little baby Bullet from it. 😁
Thank you so much for supporting and watching!
You did a wonderful job 😊love watching your videos!!
Thank you so much!
Wowza!
So impressed with how much progress this family has made!!
You are such an amazing and inspirational young lady.
God bless you and your lovely family ❤
Thank you so much!
I don't think that you get enough credit for the absolutely amazing work and service that you are doing, not to mention your mad video skills. God bless you 💖
Wow, thank you! That's so kind of you!❤😊
I enjoyed watching this video and all the others. You are amazing.
Thank you so much!
Fantastic job! That was a real struggle to clean without using strong smelling chemicals. You're a real trooper!! So happy for the homeowners that they are still motivated to maintain the home. It's difficult to keep up with the cleaning when dealing with so many health/mental challenges. You've given them a fresh start and that helps them a lot. Thank you for helping this family. 🥰
Thank you! It was kind of a fun challenge not to use really strong chemicals. Thanks for your support and your kind comments!
well done, splendid job!!
Many thanks!
Bonnie you r the sweetest❤❤
Awww...thank you!🥰
