This was awesome. Thanks for posting this. That Wild World Of Animals commentary and the National Geographic music and feel was just perfect!!! But man, that ending was heart wrenching.
Dan you have a very nice relationship with your Dad I love how you express full conversation with your Dad and how sincere he is when he answers you or asks you different things and your so patient with your answers to him..my Dad use to say to treat people the way you want to be treated..
I have had MOHS surgeries for Squamous Cell CA, but a few weeks ago I was diagnosed with a large mass in my eye that's Choroidal Melanoma. My eye will be removed.
But unfortunately I don't have help it was only me my siblings wouldn't help and it's very hard just one person trying to take care of someone with dementia it takes a toll on you but I did it thank God that I don't regret it at all so I can really say you guys are doing a fantastic job pulling together
That is so beautiful with all the responsibility. He has and all this sadness. He's got to be holding in his heart because he knows he's losing his dad and reality that he can say his dad is still contributing.! That's some kind of a man right there too bed we don't have more! Because that's a choice!
I been keeping up with you and your dad . It’s great to see a son that loves his dad so deeply and how you take of him letting him live with you. Most family members put their parents in a nursing home for reasons like this . This what families are for . It’s very rare to see families like yours Dan. God bless you and your family 🙏🏻 Keep up the amazing work with your dad.
What a bunch of pu****s! Trail monitors, safety patrol, cables at river crossings, medevac, tables loaded with food and water, clear trail. When I did it in ‘79, the first 30miles to Robinson Flat was totally snow-covered and the only support you had was what you brought with you. I didn’t get an actual belt buckle but I was the first over-200 pounds and with a time of 28:40 got a plaque with a belt buckle on it.
Congrats on your participation plaque, your generation created the society that makes these safety protocols common and/or propped up the world of insurance and liability waivers. Either way, thanks for your comment. I hope I can brag about having done the race decades before the river dries up, but we can both take credit for that one.
Wow you're a tough guy. Thanks for sharing your story. Unsure why you feel the need to call people names. But I am sure the pioneers who blazed the trail would think the same of you in your fancy manufactured shoes and clothing. 😂
What irony. If Anderson Marsh means so much then why doesn’t the state just give it back? Because it’s federal money baby! Borax is a dumping ground. Literally burnt out cars and trash. And you’re worried about discarded tools from Natives? Unbelievable
Bank of America... They and their ilk are the ones who over values houses and their adjoining loans to start with, therefore driving the cost up of buying a home thru out the neighborhood beyond what the average person can reasonably afford, therefore driving otherwise POTENTIAL HOMEOWNERS into the arms of outrageous rent barrons. Its a racketeering under a hidden agenda of WHO sits on what corporate board controlling what practices are permitted. Example: A real estate sales company and a corporate landlord sitting on a banks board, could be the exact ones making the decisions of what a bank is willing to overvalue a home for, therefore making more profit for all of them but yet steadily driving the prices out of reach for the average POTENTIAL HOMEOWNER, and therefore leaving the POTENTIAL HOMEOWNER into the outrageous expensive renters world of entrapment for LIFE scenario.
Dan has a nice home, retirement, a wife, already has raised his children, and living a comfortable life, and had decided to take on his father to be with him….but Dan discovered the support of RU-vid followers, their advice and encouragement, their wisdom, which has been a source to back him up and strengthen him. Besides this his father has a cool, calm demeanor that everyone recognizes as “Dad energy”😀 plus “buddy energy”😊 and and he still has his instinctual energy about him so we are invested in his story. What’s amazing is how patient Dan is and Dans voice and words and directions are calming.
How dare our species not I repeat not HELP/ HEAL us?????? They experiment with almost everything!! Even the latest ( covid vax) they rule us yet all the SH.t they add put into our food!! I could go on and on most of you I think get my point without me writing a book!!!! Many, many could be helped NOW!!!!!
What a good example of honoring your father. I cannot tell you how much this means to people everywhere. I love that they present the family, this is truly real life. This is Ubuntu- seeing the humanity in the other person. Thank you. The best thing is knowing and planning. Thank you
I love when he tells his Dad you are fine you live with your kids it’s so beautiful the way he says it to his Dad God bless him for taking care of his Dad
It’s great to hear all these stories of how Americans of Mexican decent fought for this great country. My uncle who is Mexican American was in the Army in WW2 he was in the battle to retake the Philippines he was from El Paso. I know there are many more stories like this. I enjoyed it. It makes me proud of what Americans of Mexican decent contributed to this great nation.
I appreciate how Dan is opened to commentors opinions about his reaction to his father's behavior. And that he is willing to make corrections where needed. Overall he shows great patience and compassion. Much love to the Salinger family.
Years ago, in my early sixties, I saw a strange looking mole on my right forearm. I casually asked my regular doctor what he thought about it. He took one look and his eyes got big. He sent me to a dermatologist. The dermatologist cut the mole out and sent it to a lab. Then I got a call to tell me it IS melanoma and surgery will be necessary. While being prepped for surgery, the doctor could tell that I was not appropriately concerned about the melanoma. He got real serious, looked me in the eye and said, "sir, this could kill you". At that time, I was amazingly ignorant about melanoma. They ended up removing a lot of skin - about 2 inches in diameter and a 1/4 inch deep. They also took a biopsy of the lymph node in my arm pit. Thankfully, that came back benign (negative). They also took some skin from my thigh and grafted it onto the surgery site. My forearm now looks like something took a big bite out of it. Videos like this one do a great job of explaining the seriousness of melanoma.
