I really hope everything works out fine!!!
Thanks for staying strong and wishing you the best
Nothing else needs to be said
✊🏽
Very ppc Savix
That's sad bro... We all hope that Savix!
Ppc💙
I would rather be without streams then have Asmon choose between us and his mum
@@jonathansoko1085 dude shut up. What are you 14? Obviously he doesn't need his permission the dude is just making a supportive statement.
@@jonathansoko1085 go back on your meds bud
I'd rather have my mother stay in the hospital than be at home making my life harder.
Asmongold is doing everything right, his mother isn't.
@@andregon4366 Youre probably not older than 18. Thatll change.
Her "making your life harder" is a small price to pay for all the love and care she has given you.
Gay....
And now she's passed. What a horrible series of events. Zack is such a good son. Neither his mom or him deserved any of this. Such peaceful, good people.
May she R.I.P, I remember seeing her on streams and some videos, she seemed like a nice mother to have, hope Asmon will recover
Depends on what you mean by deserve. I would argue someone who smokes all their life and lives an unhealthy lifestyle "deserves" it more than someone who leads a healthy life style. Noone deserves to die though, but its all coming for us eventually. Today we lost Asmons mother and hope she rests in peace.
@Daniel Foodist Man Ok, here we go again with the jacksepticeye shit
@@hellyeah2k183 it’s not even offensive, it’s just embarrassing
@Daniel Foodist Man it's not funny, stop it man
"I feel bad that my best isn't good enough."
Shit. I feel that.
I'm so sorry about your mom. Being a caregiver is honestly one of the hardest thing that can be asked of another human being. All you can do is your best, and all you can do is keep her as comfortable as possible. And it's enough. Just remember you're doing everything you can, and it's enough, don't ever think it isn't.
Very well put
Yeah, I took care of my Grandma until she passed. It was hell to watch her go, but I have no regrets. I was there for her to the end. Same for my dad, no regrets. Helping them to keep their dignity to the end was the best way for me to show them the love and respect I had for them for giving me the best of what they had for me my whole life.
When you see a parent degrade rapidly is heartbreaking. They are fine and then hardly a shell of a person. You never get over it. Spend as much time as you can with her asmongold.
Awww.. authentic message
my dad died to cancer in about 3 weeks from diagnosis , to see the man that was always strong , big man , dam so hard and everytime i was with him in hospital , we cried alot . fuck this shit . i know its life and stuff but hell , its so hard :(
I can relate to this, watching my mother go from a happy marathon runner to where she is today breaks my heart.
@@invisiblewombat123 Can relate to this. I moved out of state in 2017. When I left, my PawPaw (Who played the father figure role for most of my life) was old but in great health. He was the strongest, most stubborn man I knew. Still rode his motorcycle daily up until the time I moved. Heck at one point the man was riding with a cast on his leg after breaking his foot on a ride! I watched him move an entire household with his motorcycle and a camping trailer in tow. The man was a legend. I was so thankful I took a week off and went riding with him on our harleys before I moved because 5 months later he was diagnosed with Cancer and within 2 months it took him. I was able to fly back for 2 days to see him in the Hospital. The day after I got back for telling him goodbye and trying to make peace with the situation he had left this world for the Eternal one. Not a day goes by that I don't dwell in regret on making the decision to move out of state when I did. I lost
so much time with him.
It never gets better, just easier, with time. Just be thankful they aren't suffering any longer in this cruel twisted world we live in.
My wife has a chronic illness and I can really relate to being in the position of care giver. It has been encouraging for your opening up in this way. I am praying for you and your family. That there would be an abundance of peace in your home. Amen
Lol
why would you put Lol's on this comment. one where he Is just trying to send good vibes to Asmon. This is disgusting and disrespectful. This person and Asmon are going through a terrible time and that is nothing to laugh at. what is wrong with this society. Be respectful man, it will go alot further then this crap
@@LordRa88 lol
@@LordRa88 because no one loves him he’s alone in this world so he shits on others to make everyone else as miserable as he is
@@m9uniq581 I choose to believe he means 'Lots of love' ... or he's twelve lmao
As a daughter who has been through this and a momma, it is totally ok to break down sometimes. It's ok to show your emotions - it does matter.
@Daniel Foodist Man wow.. cringe dude.. go play fartnite
You are a good man Zack. Family first, everything else is secondary! Wish your mom will be OK!
Honestly a 100% valid reason for you to take a break.
Anyone who actually cares about you as a person in your fanbase will wait patiently for things to improve
Who cares about him as a person? You mean nothing as a viewer. Everyone deserves a break, some streamers work for much longer than others. The more people who treat streamers like a random person on a TV show and not a friend, the better off everyone will be. Stop parasocial behaviors.
@@Philosjutsu what
@@Philosjutsu aww look at the little Ludwig viewer, so cuute. Not all streamers are content monsters who only care about “bigger number better person” take your toxic rant elsewhere.
@@Philosjutsu pretty weird bro
@@Philosjutsu who hurt you bro?
im not sarcastic or anything but you don't always need to be rude.
I know exactly what this is like. Grew up poor. Even in emergencies my parents wouldn't go to the hospital if they could help it at all because they didn't have insurance. Mother was an alcoholic and abused prescription meds (not saying Asmon's mom did this). She overdosed several times and nearly died in my arms one time. Those were the darkest times in my life, and I think it's worse when you are poor because all you have is family and you are on the brink of losing the last thing you have. I hope his mom gets better. Nothing can describe the despair of situations like this.
Sorry to hear about your mom brother. Take solice in the fact that she isn’t in pain anymore. Much love. Praying for you.
@@DarthJarJarBinks_ yeah. It’s sad.
@Daniel Foodist Man dude wtf did u say it like that
@Daniel Foodist Man wtf is so funny about it. Ur a horrible human being for laughing at that jfc....
I'm a caretaker for my mom, it's the fucking hardest thing I've ever done. Everyday is a battle. It's so fucking hard. I wish you and your family the best. Take all the time you need
had to do the same for my grandfather, it's hard even for them, you can see in their eyes that they loose their dignity. i cried so hard when my grandfather told me "You're my grandson, it's not you job to wipe my ass, i'm so sorry"
@@pulseofme6884 that's completely different - you take care of baby while watching it grow, become better, grow into an adult. It's one of the greatest things one can do in life. Taking care of an ageing parent is the opposite of that - no matter what you do, how hard you try, how much you sacrifice - and it often takes a TON of sacrifice - , they will progressively get worse until they die. There're only few things more depressing.
Kell, I am also, my Mom is 91 yrs, & helping for care for my sister's husband's mom is 95 yrs. Its been difficult as in-law's Mom was being too difficult with at home nurse. We're working out what to do for future. I'm thankful I live close to my family's home & I do as much as I'm able to. I'm 68 yrs.
Same here for my mother that has Alzheimers and lost my dad on top of that last year while having a legal battle with the co owner of my fathers business. All during the covid era. Brutal times. I wish you and asmon all the best and also make sure you every now and then take time off for yourself. Hiking in nature help wonders for me.
My mother passed recently, after I had to quit my career to take care of her. It's taken me 3 years to get back on track and happy again. Even so, I'm glad I did it. People will pass. The biggest regret is not being there. Endure it, because there is no easy way through it. Tough memories are better than no memories. It means you stepped up and did what was required during a hard time.
Sorry for your loss bro
Im sorry for your loss
To be completely selfless in a time of need for your mother is a true man, respect bro . Shes an angel watching down on you 100%
♥️♥️♥️
I agree with your sentiments.
Dude's whole brand is Asshole on WoW/FFXIV, but everytime the curtain is pulled back, hes nothing but humble, caring, and trusts the same chat that mocks him with all of these details. He genuinely makes me...almost confused. Just seems so different from everyone around me in everyday life, and in the most unlikely of places.
You deserve what you have and more. I hope you all are well.
Public social anxiety, taking out the anger inside in a virtual world where there are no true consiquences, plus it being an act for Twitch. This is him, not asmongold/
He puts on an act for streaming to entertain he really is just a nice guy behind scenes from what i could tell meeting him twice
@Daniel Foodist Man you’re lucky
@@cosuinofdeath that he isnt dead.
@Daniel Foodist Man wtf?
I’m glad Asmongold was successful in streaming. He’s genuinely a good person. I’m glad he has the funds to help is mom. Keep your head up Asmon
He’s a multimillionaire, he has the money for the best healthcare in America

he's a literal nut.

So sorry to hear this
Ohio!!
Zack, remember to not forget to take care of yourself while helping your mom, YOU need to stay healthy if you want to help her
Hörru jag är futtogt förstår du vad jag emnar då???=
i can relate brotha in a similar situation myself.. stay strong... and do whats best for you and your momma!
I took care of my mom for practically my entire adult life to the point where i legitimately put my life on hold to be her caretaker. She passed away in May and it's been the hardest thing to get over and I'm kinda in a limbo since my whole life revolved around taking care of her. I pretty much don't have an identity aside from that.
I know where you're coming from, and I know how you're feeling. I hope things get better for you, man.
Currage to you too...It's very hard to feel this sudden and terrible emptiness...I know how it feels, but tell somone about your feelings, don't stay alone with your pain...and try to do something for yourself, that can make you feel better, a massage, a haircut, etc..take care of you know, it's important to help you to keep going and find a new purpous in your life, maybe a job within care to others who needs help would be an idea? Sorry for my english...I'm from Switzerland but your message touched me...I wish you to find something that will please you, maybe somone to share your life with too later...🤗 a warm hug from me😉
Inshalla you expierience a lot of love
you are awesome dude, remember that
should of gotten a good job and paid for a professional caretaker instead of reducing your entire existence to being her exclusive caretaker.
My story is pretty much like yours. My mom passed away in May 2020. Its so weird to live without all that... Its almost as if some part of us is missing... You and Asmon are in my thoughts. Take care.
Damn. As a paramedic, it's awesome to hear that someone feels safe when we arrive because thats not always the case.
Hope it all works out Asmon. You have a strong community and support. Sounds like COPD but I don't know. Either way, any medical issues that involve breathing are horrible. It's good she has such a caring family.
Paramedics rock, im in the army and i truly and deeply respect the paramedics job. To see them arrive is like a light of hope, a chance to live.
Thanks for your service Jay! That light guide you in your job and you help as many as you can.
Thank you for all you do. If it is not enough to save someone’s life, you also save people the heartbreak of losing all that is dear to them. You have my complete respect and all my love
I know people usually say this to soldiers, but thank you for your service.
You're not a doctor, who are you to tell him this?
I dont know what system you work in but people would rather have EMS than Police in my city. When Detroit EMS is on scene the calvary is here. Everyone feels safe. But thanks for your service and want not.
im going through the same family stuff zack ,stay positive & keep your head up brotha
Asmon is such a good dude. This breaks my heart to hear and I'm praying my buns off for his mom. Be strong, Asmongold. We all love you
Wishing all the best to your mom and you. Stay strong Asmon! 👍
Stay Strong m8
I agree stay strong asmon
He removed TriHard emote, he should also remove KKona. Or he's a hypocrite.
It is sad, but the best option for him would be to hire a qualified full-time caretaker. It's the best option for families of people that require full-time care, period. I have seen how stress and exhaustion can destroy the family that tries to look after the sick family member by themselves. I know they want to do their best, but sometimes the best would be to get the right help.
Yeah, Ive seen people get destroyed trying to take care of people by themselves..
Can confirm that. I mean this profession exists for a reason other than "if nobody else has the time to do it".
Well not only the time, but also capability, cuz let's be honest, they have proper knowlage to take care of sick people, sadly most of the people wont seek help because they scared of other opinions and guilt that they were not able to take care of someone, and put that resposibility on some strangers.
Its harder for those of us that cant afford it. And insurance wont cover full time. Or medicaid
@@Ronzeru sometimes you can. At least in my state we have Louisiana home health and Medicaid/Medicare pays it for at least daytime care
"I feel guilt for my best not being good enough"
Asmon!! Your best IS good enough. This is such a difficult and hard time for you and yours. We'll all be thinking of you and sending well wishes and good vibes to your mom. You're doing an amazing job. Your best is good enough. You are doing enough. Even during these difficult times, do your best to take whatever small time you can for yourself and your own mental/physical health. Your mom is lucky to have you, and I truly hope she turns around. Best wishes man!
Damn this was hard to watch, you never expect to feel that gut wrenching feeling with family sick. I’m wishing you all the best Asmon, stay strong man. ❤️❤️❤️
Dear Asmon:
As someone who took care of her disabled grandmother that raised her from the age of 6 til 18 when I moved out (due to an automobile accident), I will say that I understand where you are coming from. It isn't easy and from here on out, it won't really get easier. Just remember to take care of yourself as well as you and your mom get adjusted to the new lifestyle that the health conditions have brought on. Don't forget to take time to spend with each other. Streams can wait. The days that you need your 'out', your stream audience will be there. We'll be there. I hope you are able to find an in-home nurse to help with the care that your mom needs so you can take some breaks and get rest some nights. My mother is now caring for my grandmother and is having to look into the same thing for my grandmother since I moved away. It's hard. It really is. But stay strong, Warrior of Light. Stay strong.
I hope he reads this! You stay strong too! All the best to you and your family 🥰
My dad survived cancer and after that he got pneumonia that almost got him. He's still here years after. Stay strong Asmon and have hope
@@RealNotallGaming Ok who gives a fuck?
@@RealNotallGaming Cool story bro
@@RealNotallGaming Covid is way scarier than pneumonia or cancer, if you knew people who had cancer you would know that. People keep refusing to vaccinate and take up all the beds in hospitals. I personally know a guy who died 2 weeks ago because all the hospitals were full here due to covid. People who have cancer also cant afford to get sick of covid too, their immune systems are so weak due to different treatments they are receiving + their illness is taking toll on it too, so basically if you have any type of cancer or serious autoimmune disease and you get covid, you are screwed.
@@DF-be6pn wait... what?
@@DF-be6pn Covid is not "scarier" than cancer by any stretch of the imagination. Reevaluate that statement.
Hope your mom gets better Asmon! I have someone in my life who can be difficult about getting medical care as well, it is hard, and I don't understand it. Thankfully you're able to support her (emotionally AND financially) during this time, so that IS a big help bud. It has always been pretty obvious you care a great deal about her so I'm sure whatever you're doing is your best. All you can do is try to help her seek actual medical attention, and help her out during the hard times. Love you Asmon, love your mom, and hope she gets better soon!
Bro I don't even watch your videos. This came up as a recommended for autoplay. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom though it's rough trying to do everything you can to help. Definitely understand being poor and not bothering to go to the hospital. Just sleep it off and if it doesn't go away you get it checked out eventually. You seem super honest and chill. You got a sub from me off of this video. Hopefully things turn around man.
my dad passed away this year, his choice. he had been diagnosed with copd some years ago after almost losing him to a case of double pneumonia. they basically told him his lungs were toast and the best he could do is stop smoking to prevent further damage. my dad couldn't stop smoking. after a couple years and another couple trips to the hospital they gave him an oxygen machine. he was at stage 4 copd. 6 years i stopped by every weekend to do errands and keep his house clean. he lost a tremendous amount of weight and despite barely being able to walk and having difficulties breathing, he kept smoking. trying to get him to stop would make him depressed, combative, lethargic things that would seemingly make things worse. eventually living a daily hell of not being able to breath and being able to do anything finally took it's toll. he got sick for the last right after new years. and like you he hated going to the hospital. and i remember the day they were coming to get him he kept saying before they come he just wanted to spend more time with me, it wasn't until the ambulance was coming that i realized he was going to make this his last hospital visit. i was lucky enough to be able to hold his hand when he exited stage left. i guess some advice is don't beat yourself up for them not being able to change or looking like your enabling their behavior at this point, you and i know it's not that simple. sit and think about stuff you would like your mom to know, or to experience, or to show, that your not going to sit later and regret not doing, might be as simple as wanting to show off your cooking skills or to how much you appreciated certain points in time. and lastly, i'm not going to sugar coat it, things are not going to get any better and they will only get worse. unfortunately your going to have to do your best to soldier on in that situation, because time is limited, and even those things that she has you do that annoy you or make you angry, your going to be kicking yourself later wishing they could do it one more time. make best of the time you have, we only get one shot at this.
Well Said
@@dra6o0n actually No lol
My father is heading down this path. Smoked for 50 years now. Basically retired. Refuses to quit, body deteriorating, can’t golf anymore, which makes him even more jaded and unhappy, leaving him with his only two pleasures: smoking and drinking. I feel guilty in a way, for spending nights by the fire, talking and drinking whisky, as if I were encouraging him. We’ve exchanged more words in the last 18 months than in the last 32 years of my life. But I don’t think anything is ever going to change him, and he’s going to destroy himself with or without me. I know I will be grateful that I spent this time with him when he’s gone.
Wishing the best for you both, love you mate
@Daniel Foodist Man the fuck's wrong with you?
@Daniel Foodist Man be careful with the things you say on the internet. There is a lot of crazy people with literally nothing to lose. Its easy to get IP's. And worthless people like you are an easy target
Keep ur head up Asmon. I feel you're pain brother. Been taking care of my dad he was diagnosed with Parkinsons Disesase 11 Years ago, every day is a struggle. Life is precious. We all love you
Wow hang in there that is relatable and brutal
Asmon, sending lots of love and strenght your way,
Stay strong and may everything work out for the better!
you're a legend for taking so much care and do all you can! ♥
@Daniel Foodist Man and how is that funny? it's quite sad she has passed away around a week ago. if you dislike Asmongold, fine, but his mom does'nt deserve any disrespect.
I lost my mom last year to cancer. You helped me through the that time and all the hard times that followed. I'm rooting for you bro. Take all the time you have with your mom. dont worry about streaming we aint going any where. I'll be thinking of you and sending sending my best thoughts to you and yours. good luck friend!
Sorry for your loss :(
I m sorry for your loss man, stay strong !
Sorry for your loss
Sorry for you loss my friend ❤
Cherrish your loved ones, boys. You don't want to regret it when they're gone 🥺
@Krissy I get those same feelings about blowing my father off, especially since I did the day before he passed. No changing that now, I just try and remind my friends to spend time with their parents because you never know when it will happen. Talking about it helps a lot.
My mom died Christmas Eve 6 years ago. Cherish every moment. Make them worth it.
Exactly! I am all my father has left now. Everyone else is gone. I lost my mother a few months ago. She passed away in a nursing home in Florida! She had Parkinson's really bad, and I was told she was completely out of her mind in the end! To make it worse, I couldn't be there because of the coof! I know all too well how Zack feels, I have been there, more than once! My aunt died when Texas froze, my husband passed away a few years ago, he had been really sick for a while, and one night, when I came home from work, I found him gone! I was NOT in a good place after that, but, I was lucky enough to have had help with that! I don't mean to depress anybody, but, a few months ago, the biological mother of my step-kids, passed away, and I am the only mother they have left now too! Before my husband passed, one of my closest BFF's from work died in a house fire, saving someone else. Me, and a couple of others that were the closest to her, were trying to get a little bit of money put together, to help with expenses. I was supposed to go to her funeral, then, my husband died. So, yeah, it has been rough as f%#@ for me as well these past few years, the last two especially! When I heard what was happening to Zack, and his family, I had to share some of what had happened to me as of late. Maybe it will help someone else? Oh, to make things even more f-ed up, before my husband passed, our place where we live almost burnt down! I really hope Zack's mom gets better soon, we will ALWAYS be there for Zack, like he is for us! Just take care of yourself and your mom, family always comes first! We all love and care about you! Sorry if I bummed some people out, I just had to share some of my story. YOU GOT THIS ZACK!
you will regret it no matter what, there's no way around it
@@Wolfrich666 Maybe so, but you'll only continue to regret if you don't find meaning in the loss
I remember that video of his mom dinging 60, and him asking her how she felt, and she said happy cause she was with him. Truly she loves him, and he loves her as it should be. I hope she's ok.
That is so sweet.
My thoughts are with you. I too am going through a very similar situation with my own mother. It's tough. Thinking of anyone going through this kind of situation. Stay positive.
Wishing the best to Asmond and his family,, breaks me to see him like this and know what its like to lose a parent. 17 years later and it doesn't get any easier so I understand his fear and the burden he puts on himself that he shouldn't. Hang in there!
I lost my dad to lung cancer in May. And he was really poorly towards the end and I was in complete denial. I did everything for him. It's only really hit me now. I keep even having dreams about letting him fall down and stuff. He was so headstrong too and really didn't want to be in a hospice or hospital even though I really wasn't equipped to deal with it. I really relate to the stress and worry of trying to look after him.
@@fionamb83 Lost my mother to lung cancer 9 years ago, such a painful way to leave.
Lost my dad to cancer. It never hurts less. You just get used to it.
Lmao
@@Mehrunes86 it was worse than I could have imagined. I sat by his bed in the hospital for a day straight without sleep till he took his last breath. He was comatose I think but the breathing was so laboured and tough. I wouldn't wish it for anyone to have to go through that. I never saw anyone dying before that. I am glad I was there though. I think he heard me a few times. Well I like to think it anyway
I feel sorry for asmond, it’s very hard to treat a person that doesn’t want to get treated. Hopefully he finds the strength to go through this.
I'm praying for you guys! I went through a lot of the same kind of stuff with my dad a few years ago. No matter what happens, you'll get through this.
Love you my man, there is nothing I could say or do that would be able to help you through this rough time. Keep up with the positivity, I'm sure that's helping your mom a lot! stay strong dude
As someone who just recently lost his mother a few months ago, I can relate. This is probably something you don't want to think about, but you should have that conversation with your mom about her wishes should the worst happen. It will makes things easier if you already know what she wants if she were incapacitated or unlikely to recover, etc. Basically a medical directive that allows you to make decisions for her if she can't and what her wishes are in certain medical situations. These kind of things can happen quite suddenly. Three weeks before my mom died, I had talked with her doctors who told me that she was actually doing OK as her test numbers showed she was doing better now than 6-9 months previously. Three weeks later she was in the hospital and in just a few days later was in hospice and passed away. Knowing her wishes well before hand made decisions a lot easier to make with no delay or doubt.
Taking care of a sick parent is not easy. They may reach a point in which you cannot really take care of them anymore. All you can do is your best and make decisions that are best for their health even if it's not to their liking. At the same time, there is only so much you can do if your parent is dead set against it like staying in hospital. Some parents are rather stubborn and even if you were a doctor, they would just do what they want regardless of professional medical advice. My mom also left the hospital on a few occasions despite advice from the doctors that it would not be a good idea. She didn't care. She just wanted out of there (this was long before COVID). On one hand, you're the son so you're responsible for taking care of your mom. However on the other hand, you're just the son, the kid (in her eyes). She will always outrank you and not necessarily listen to you. Just do what you can.
My mom died of cancer 3 months ago. It hurts every day.
Mate, your comment is something that Asmon needs to think about. When I was a kid my father had throat cancer and was bed bound in the hospital back and forth. I saw him on the Sunday afternoon at the hostpial and he was supposed to come home on Monday as "he's improving a lot". Monday at 3am my mother wakes me and my brother up in tears, we went to the hospital to see him one last time. He already passed away before we got there.
That was in 2005 and still to this day as a guy nearing his 30's, it kills me.
I’m sorry for your loss. You came through with some important advice for anyone in that situation. Hope they read it.
sorry for your loss man. Lost my mother 3 years ago but still knocks me down every once in a while. Family took care of her while I was in college and every time she would visit, she would look so much thinner. got to a point they needed a fulltime aid and she helped out SOOO much and helped her until the cancer took her.
You’re such a sweet son for being there for your mom, I can’t imagine how difficult it must be to see her not well. I don’t even play WOW but I love watching your stream with my husband, so take your time dude. Take care of yourself, take care of mom, we’ll still be around when you get back into your groove!
Hey Zach. I'm sorry to hear that your mom isn't doing well. And I have an understanding of what you're going through. For the past couple years I've been helping my Mom take care of my Dad who is in hospice. It's not easy. It's stressful, it's emotionally difficult to deal with. It's very hard to watch your parents grow old, and feeble, and sometimes lose their minds and awareness. It's very hard to want to do so much for them, and be completely inadequate for what you want to do. DO find a nurse to come around a couple times a week to check up and help out. That does help to relieve the stress for a little while. You'll have tough days, you'll have okay days, and everything in between, but all we can do is take life one day at a time.
As an ending note, in July I cold-turkey quit sodas. It was hard, but not as hard as I thought.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Keep on being a good, loving son. That is ultimately more important than streaming, than the audience, etc, and I'm sure you know that.
Cheers from Colorado,
~SS
Much love and many prayers from Cali dude I went through the same with my parent man. You got this!!
Seeing him almost crying breaks my fucking heart man...

Get the brake pads changed
I replaced the breaks on my car, then I took a lunch brake.
I'm with you buddy
I've been taking care of my grandmother who can't take care of herself for 2 years now. She's completely dependent on me. I know exactly what Asmon is going through and it is one of the hardest things to deal with. My heart goes out to you Asmon and I hope your mother gets better.
You’re a good grandchild. Not a lot of people have the kind of heart or sense of duty/compassion to be a caregiver, even for family members.
I’ve been in the same situation for my family members and even a friend before, and it is so draining, in so many ways. Please practice self-care with the what time and energy you have.
I’m keeping you, your grandma, Asmongold, his mom, and everyone else in this situation in my thoughts.
You're a hero. Mad respect.
I am shocked. Watching your videos and stream now for about 4 years. Thankful for your content you brought up until now. You often got a good story of your mom from the past. Always felt that. All i wanna say I only can imagine the pain about your loss. I wish you the best Zack. Stay strong and who you are.
sad to hear, as a caregiver of my own mother, I would say don't forget to take care of yourself, so that you can be strong for your mom. Also, I also had amazing experiences with EMS (paramedics, firefighters), big THANK YOU if you are an emergency responder , they were have been so professional and kind. Wishing the best to you and your mom.
Lost my dad in my early 20s to a stroke, although it took half a year after the episode for him to pass. It sucks dude, no way around it. Just stay at her side, do what you can to not have her feeling alone, reinforce to her that she's got someone who loves the shit outta her unconditionally. Hire a nurse if she's down so that you don't get caretaker's fatigue (real thing) but what's most important is her comfort. Stay strong Zack and don't be afraid to leave the streaming behind for a while. I'd give a year of my life just to have a five minute conversation with my dad again. When they're gone, they're gone.
Yeah, hire someone like nurse could be very helpfull - even when you want to fully commit to supporting someone by yourself... More people is almost everytime is better - then you could give only your positive energy to someone that you cared, you don't get so fatigued by that and professional nurse could help because, well, its their job and they probably have some expiriense with this.
So, again, even when you absolutly love someone - you should take rests yourself. Because one thing, that I think you problem doesn't want to do - is to make your parents and loved ones worried about your own well being, especially because they, well, could think that this is their fault... So stay strong, stay positive, ask for help if its needed. Wish everyone a good luck!
(Sorry for bad grammar)
My dad I used to have to take care of him after a surgery and he had other medical issues due to his drinking requiring him to need constant help but I left finally after my dads friend bullied me out now I worry about my dad a lot knowing my dads “caretaker” is enabling him now to continue drinking and other things I miss taking care of him we had some fun memories I had been making sure he got outside and we both would go out to lunch or I’d take him somewhere now my neighbor calls me and let’s me know how sad it’s become and how sad he looks idk sorry this is a shitty word salad but I miss my dad and my dog (I must emphasize I made my dad start smoking pot again and stop drinking so I really was trying)
i understand the caregivers fatigue cause i am taking care of my dad. im just glad that my work has a therapist supplied for me to talk to to vent and get things out cause i sometimes feel overwhelmed cause i am essentially taking care of myself and another adult completely and its stressing me out and i wish i could convince him to get more professional help
When my grandfather had a heart attack my mom prayed the god so he could live for at least 1 year more, i dont believe in god myself, but he did live exactly 1 year more, but as a shell of his former self, not being able to move around on his own, not being able to go to toilet, he refused to take medicine and was constantly ranting. Then another heart attack put an end to his life. I wish i could have seen more of him in his prime, i dont remember him all that well, but ive heard stories of what kind of man he was and im so sorry i didnt get to see it myself. So be careful what you wish for i guess. Sometimes i wonder if its better when they pass away peacefully and quickly instead of having so much struggle before finally leaving us.
ok but who asked lol
It’s always hard to watch the people that took care of us grow older and need help from us in return. Acknowledging that you need help and support for things out of your control is incredibly admirable. Stay strong and all the best to you and your family!
hope everything works out my man, thoughts and prayers don't really help much, but hell, I'm sending mine on the off chance, and remember, we're all here for you dude if you ever wanna vent
I know how it's like to have your health torn to shreds, and you just have to hang in there, and I'm sure things will get better
Honestly hope he comes to the conclusion he doesnt have to put on this energetic persona that he puts on, it obviously is exhausting for him.
I like him as the way he is when he is himself, and the most important thing he should worry about is his wellbeing.
Stay strong Asmon!
I 100% get Asmongold's feelings atm, my dad just had a stroke last week (as of my comment) and seeing my dad go through this, someone who I've always seen as a rock in my life break down to someone who can barely talk, walk or even give respond to a yes or no question breaks you down on every level, being strong is one of the hardest things you can do at times like these.
Edit :To the community thanks for the kind words please keep giving Asmon the same!!
I hope the best for your dad and stay strong my guy.
My mom had a stroke too last October left hemisphere she can’t feel temperature on her left arm and leg she can speak but, it was hard to see her struggling. Good luck man
As I said to Zack, try to see the positives every day, I know how much it hurts, I saw similar during my Mother's brain cancer.... She couldn't even remember who I was, but she was still as sweet as ever, even though she didn't remember me. Stay strong ❤️
Look through our shell, your dad is still there, still as strong as before under all that.
Stay strong dude!
Wishing asmon and his mother the best. Hope everything gets better soon
Pray for him and his mother. 🙏❤
I wish you and your mom all the best. Hope she gets better soon.
It sucks being stuck in a situation like that and feeling kinda helpless about it, but stay strong mate. I hope everything works out in your guys' favor after all.
We'll be there for you no matter what.
many hugs loves and prayers for you and your sweet mama!! ive been a sub for a little over a year now i LOOOVE watching you but i think now is a good time for you to step back and care for your mom....GOD BLESS YOU!! ♥
I lost my mom this past Feb after 2 long painful years bed ridden on home hospice care.......those home hospice nurses were a god send for our family, just use every moment you have with her while she is still around, don't leave anything unsaid, I really wish the best for you and your family asmon :) , we will all still be here when you get back :)
Sorry for your loss. It's hard watching them go from a superhero to bed ridden..
Even entertaining the thought of my mother dying breaks my heart. It's so hard to imagine, sorry you had to experience that so early in life
@@minecraftminer59mineboymin38 no parents?
@@tanelviil9149 Dude, he said that reffering to when he was young and his family didnt have money, and even if he has lots of it now its an habit after years of having to deal with not going to the hospital because they couldn't afford it.
My mother's hospice nurses were awesome too. I lost my mother 9/10/21 so I'm still in shock and denial. Catch myself calling her phone and realize she won't answer anymore.
keeping you in my thoughts big dawg
@Daniel Foodist Man thats gonna be you when some crazy dude with nothing to lose gets your IP
man this must be really rough i hope she gets better best wishes to her,you and your family stay strong
*hug* I'm sorry to hear about your mom, especially in light of the most recent news. I truly with the best for you and your family. While it may be easy and tempting to isolate at the moment I truly hope you have people to talk to and share your grief with.
I normally don't post...but Family first. You did the best you could, and you supported her like a wonderful son. You took her to the place where she could get the best possible care you could give her. Take the time you need, take the moments left to spend with your dear mom, and love yourself for being a caring and wonderful son. Please seek out a MH counselor to help you make the hard decisions you may be soon facing. Have a game plan for the worst days, it will help you heal when the good days are there. *Super hugs*
Good tip on finding a mental health counselor. If anyone reading this has the money, I especially recommend looking for licensed therapists with a Master’s or PhD degree in psychology, or an MD in psychiatry (many psychiatrists also offer counseling). Especially those that use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). I find that they tend to use the most evidence-based practices and are typically the most professional (will respect your boundaries, won’t push a specific religion on to you, etc.). Also, if you don’t click with your therapist for whatever reason, feel free to find a new one. It’s important to take care of our mental health-it’s like getting a doctor’s checkup and regular appointments, but for the brain.
You’re talking like she’s already gone or soon to be, you don’t know the situation and neither do I. But staying positive is the best thing to do but also to have realistic expectations.
Asmon is such a good son. He worries that he's not doing enough for no reason. He's doing more than many other sons ever have.

I'm confused.
I like Asmongold, but saying he does much for his mom is a joke.
They live in a shithole, kitchen is full of rodents, he will also cut corners at every occasion.
I really don't mind that he wants to not spend much, but as a millionaire he should not let his mom live in these conditions.
@Ten too What the hell does that mean
Youre 110% right i tell him that everyday.
I feel you so much I know it's hard and it sucks..
My Grandfather is going trough the same stuff right now.. he has COPD and I also needed to convince him to stop smoking(he did stop!)
I hope all will be better soon Asmon! Wishing you and your mom the best! ♥
Dude im sorry to hear this news, I really am. Sitting here tearing up a little, while recognizing what you and your family are going through, she is your mom after all. As so am i . My sis has been dealing with stage 4 colon cancer and has been battling this since as of 2019 in November. Seeing what she goes through with her chemo treatments does suck royally and the toll it take out on her and the family. But the silver lining all we can do for now is just pray for them. Reguardlessly if you are a relgious person or not. It is all that we can do to show our support and be there for them, as a strength and a guidling light for them to hopefully make it out of this somehow. Community is here for you.
Men when you said that cody came and cried, that hitted different. You and your mom deserves all the best right now.
I helped my stepmom take care of my dad when he was dying from cancer over a year and a 1/2. We lost him on his birthday last year in January. I know almost exactly what you are going through right now. Stay strong for her. But do your best to take care of yourself as well as she needs you to be healthy. My prayers go out to you both
My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 congestive heart failure last week, I feel you on the stress. I felt like the worst son almost feeling bad that he was coming home from the hospital. Its not that I didn't want him home, its more so I didn't know what to do, when they're at the hospital as you said they're under the best treatment and in the best place for when something goes wrong.
Now im his caregiver, low sodium diets, managing medications, to and from doctor visits, managing liquid intakes and exercise amounts. Its a lot, also they gave him this heart attack life vest. Hearing that beep go off even just because a sensor isn't reading correctly is anxiety inducing.
Man, I can totally relate to the feeling of seeing one of your parents deteriorate like that. My dad battled lung cancer for 10 months and it was the hardest thing being totally helpless other than just being positive and trying to pretend it doesn't exist.
Just, take the time to be with her. It will make the biggest difference to her in the long run. Whether she gets better or not, you both will cherish that time you spent together.
Thinking of you, Zach. Much love.
I'm a Respiratory Therapist with 10 years of experience and I can tell you that you're handling this better than the vast majority of people do. Props to you man, I hope things work out the way that's best for everyone. Much love.
What life expectancy do you give his mom at this moment?
@@SquishyEggo well I know absolutely nothing about the situation so...
Man, Asmon you’ve got a beautiful heart. Seriously you should be proud of yourself for always being there for your mother, and taking care of her like she’s the last person in your life. I know that she’s proud of you, for having such an amazing son. I pray for your strength and for your mothers health. You guys got this 🙏🏻
Past months have been rough for me as well. I truly hope all goes well for you and your mom. Your content has helped me through a lot and the few appearances your mom has made on the streams we’re really awesome. God bless 💜💜💜
Watching this now really breaks my heart. I've always felt a connection to Zach/Asmon because we grew up in very similar ways. Seeing him like this and knowing how everything ended up just kills me inside. I've never met or talked to him obviously, but I felt his pain, and I felt his loss. He's a long lost brother from another Mother. My she rest in peace brother. And I'm happy to see you these days having healed.
My father had poor oxygen levels too, he had reduced lung capacity and a heart that worked too hard to make up for the lack of oxygen.
Touch wood and not to scare you, but if ever she wakes up with uncontrollable shivers call the Ambulance. Don't make the mistake I made and wait it out. I pray for her health, and hope she gets her quality of life back.
It's words if wisdom like this that need to be heeded.
As someone who's also really poor, man, I felt this. "Sleep it off" or "wait and see" have always been my MO too.
He's not poor dude. He's got a FUCK ton of money. He was just saying that because of their frugal mindset
@@GeneralDisarray666 because he grew up poor... didn't always have a "fuck ton of money"
I am really sorry about your Mom. Prayers and good vibes to you and your mother. I hope that she is able to pull through. Keep positive!
"I feel guilty for my best not being good enough a lot of times ..."
What you do is not only good enough, it gives people hope and happiness. You deserve the support for being legit.
My mother got on an oxygen machine but I used some of my training to help her. I make a bath of 1 cup of 35% hydrogen peroxide and 2 cups of Epsom salts for oxygenation of tissues and aiding in tissue recovery and relaxation. I had her eat 1 tablespoon of plain kitchen mustard for her lungs because mustard seed is a powerful expectorant (clears the lungs) like mucinex but better, and it's been used as a chest pack for eons for lung disease and other ailments.
Keep going. All you can do is care and help her. Stay strong.
It’s heartbreaking seeing you so vulnerable and going through such a rough situation. Keep trying to help your mom please don’t give up, I know the last thing you want to hear is advice; approaching it in the most caring way possible as I’m sure you are, don’t beat yourself if your not feeling enough, be as inconsistent with streaming as you need cause honestly your mom and caring for her is first as frustrating as it may be cause I know older folk don’t like seeking medical care keep pushing for medical in the most caring way possible. ❤️
Hope all will get better soon. 🙌🏻 Cheers from Germany
I hope he gets better soon too. 🙌 I won't cheer, but i will say something more appropriate. Asmon, Stay strong in these tough times and i'm here for you. Big hug from The Netherlands
I love your covers
Take your mom and move to Germany, free medical threatment for everyone!
Heil asmongold
@@Rauteeins its not free ^^
... we just pay differnet for it...
so we dont get these big numbers that fuck your live up xD
You’re a strong lad.
Stay strong in front of her and hopefully your positive energy will make it’s way through.
Stay strong man. Fight the good fight. Much respect.
I've been there dude.... very very relatable.... right down to the smoking.. it's tough. you'll be alright. you will.
I lost my mom to Alzheimer's a year and a half ago. Watching someone you love suffer is the worst ever as I'm sure you already know. this is coming from a small voice, far far away from you but stay strong and do what you can but at the same time take care of yourself as well. Hope all goes well with you and your family.
My dad had a heart attack a few months back and my mom had a stroke in may, I was taking care of them full time and then my dad got way down and we lost him on August 22. You are an amazing son, trust me when I say that your mamma loves you and appreciates everything you do, and you will not regret being the person you are to her. You are a good man. People will just have to be patient with you. I completely stopped playing wow 4 four months, after playing for 15 years, just to help my parents.
who are these people, that give dislikes to a boy caring for his mom?
chat giving love to him through the video is wholesome.
Keep your head up, hoping ur mom recovers. You are a good son.
I'm going through a similar situation with my mom right now, and it's so damn hard. Wishing you and your mom nothing but the best
I’d really recommend getting a caregiver to come either daily or at least a few days a week. They will be able to make you and your mom feel more at ease with their knowledge. It’s always scary to deal with this type of stuff on your own. Praying for you and your family and anyone else that is going through tough times.
Yeah, he can easily afford some amazing help
yeah, tell that to a person who has been pretty poor their entire life and try to convince them to act normally when they have expensive caregivers around. it doesn't work that way. i can say from experience, it's very hard to convince older people especially to be okay with things like that. imagine spending your entire life worrying about every single cent and now having a lavish lifestyle just like that. even when they know they can afford it now - it messes up with your brain a lot you'd rather not.
I concur, not knowing how to help a sick/old person can be counterproductive, for example, if you don't help them stand up the correct way you risk hurting them. When I helped my grandma get out of the car while going to the bank an old guy lectured me on why I was doing it wrong and how I could hurt her shoulders, hips, risk a fall etc. There's a lot when it comes to care taking.
Stay strong, all the best for you and your mom
@@JBPVFL i didn’t say it was a bad advice, chill, you have your experience others have theirs, just offering to look at it from a different perspective, that’s all
@@JBPVFL where are you from I’m wondering? I’m curious which country offers caretakers for free other than in senior housing...
Taking care of family is important. Streaming is just a job, and you've managed to build a community who have chosen to empathize with you and remain loyal, regardless of your presence or absence. The majority will likely wait for you to come back for as long as it takes, so please focus on your mom. She's what's important right now.
Your exactly right I do watch you to distract myself from alot of bull crap going on. Good vibes and prayers for your mother man and I really hope everything works out love you man
Wishing you all the best. I cared for my mum for a long time and totally get it when it comes to persuading them to get help / have help in / stop smoking etc.
There is also help out there for home carers, it might be worth looking into that to get yourself the support you will also need through this.
been in the pretty much exact situation with a relative. hated going to the hospital, just wanted to be in the comfort of her home. reassurance is a good tool. make sure she knows she's not a burden, that she's safe. it takes an emotional toll on everyone. take care of yourself as much as you take care of her.
This made me cry. For more than a month I've feared for my mom's life and been taking care of her as best I could. Stay strong Asmon, and let yourself feel what you need to sometimes. It's important not lose yourself in the process of being there for her
Asmon, you are a good son and You being a good son makes your momma so proud. You just keep doing the best you can because in her eyes that will always be good enough. This is one of those times that sucks and is hard but it's also where you and your mom become much closer, come to a much deeper understanding of the love you have for each other, and this will be a time you will cherish for the rest of your life. it's hard but eventually these times will be a memory. One of love, respect, and admiration for one another. Love your momma and that will always be good enough buddy. Sending love your way.
Thank you for this video, cant imagine it was easy to make. All the best to you and your mom, hoping she gets better soon.
Sending you guys so much love from the UK. I might be a parasocial andy but you've helped me get through a tough time at university with some of my family having to go into hospital, and not being there and able to support them properly hurt us all; I want you to know you're appreciated and that there are a lot of people who want to be there to help you the way you've helped them. I hope your mom feels better soon, and I'm sure you'll be able to get through this thing
Your mom is your number one priority, streaming, UA-cam videos, etc, all of that is secondary. You do what you need to do however long it needs to take. Your community will be there all the time to support you. Sending prayers for your mom, that she will make a full recovery and that you all have the strength to see her through this.
hey asmon, its really sad seeing you like this and hearing whats happening, ive lost my dad about year ago i know the pain, stay strong my man
Sending my support and love for you and your mom Asmon. I know what you’re going through is extremely difficult but you’ve got a lot of support out here. Please do whatever you need to for your family, it’s understood. Take care man ❤️
