“I had to rescue them. They are my heart.” This is a one amazing great grandmother doing it all by herself, until now. Best friends can be a true blessing.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate Miss Alice who recognised Miss Ella’s struggle and called Fox👏🏾 We wouldn't have know about this story otherwise🥺
This is my mom Alice and her sweet friend. Im tearing up at work . UPDATE: With Ella's approval I have today 12/26/18 set up a Gofundme IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE & SHARE Hi everyone, please click here to support my GoFundMe campaign, Great Grandmother Caring For 6 Kids: www.gofundme.com/6mcnw5s?sharetype=teams&member=1381142&pc=sms_db_co2876_v1&rcid=791c6cd761d9492eb49a57e869e5b6fa
I understand Heather. But this happens all the time. Irresponsible parents can be devastating to the family and I guess before the kids suffer the great-grandmother would rather take the children and on protect them as best as she could.
kuteboi05 I know it happens a lot nowadays. It’s unfortunate, especially for a great grandmother verses a grandmother having to endeavor such a huge responsibility at her age. Very sad situation for sure. It’s terrible . Very strong woman for perciveering through it all.
How can three generations just sit back and allow this sweet lady to take all the responsibility of raising each generation? This great-grandmother is absolute gold!
She said she had to rescue them. Toxicity somewhere... . Then, no one wants to split up siblings. Problem probably was: Who in the family could take them all? Zero. And probably, because it's kinship care, she's not getting any (or much?) help from Child Protective Services' budget. Social Security only stretches so far.... They're all very lucky to have each other.😅
Man... I wish I was someone who had money like bill gates or the Kardashian’s. I would help so many people just like this woman. One day, I hope I can help make a difference in someone’s life 🙏🏼
I just need ideas of how I can help someone, anonymously from my nursing home in Canada. I'm not rich, but in a few months time will be able to help someone. All I need are ideas. Thank you and God bless you. These shows acts of kindness have stirred my heart deeply.
@@cpmffeilberg4970 Something that I do, that doesn't take much money, is pick up a package of thank you cards & blow pops from the local dollar store, then, as I go about life, I periodically fill them out for various customer service associates (at the grocery store, pharmacy, library & so forth). ...It's very inexpensive but a great way to make someone else's day! Another thing I do (that's completely free) is make a point of greeting & complimenting strangers for anything nice I might notice about them---you never know when someone else is in need of a kind or uplifting word, & you could be the one who gives it. You can trust God to give you the courage to speak up: cuz He loves to spread love! Be blessed Caroline, & thank you for your lovely, generous spirit.
@@MultiDancing1 the complimenting I also do. It's amazing how people can be frowning 1 minute and grinning from ear to ear the next. We both have the same kind spirit. Bless you too.
That was the bit that burst my bubble, i thought i had an apple stuck in my throat, They might not have had money but by God they had faith, those kids were raised RIGHT by there beautiful Grandmother, love and blessings from a well wisher in the UK.
72 raising 6 young kids who are clearly put together and keeping that house that clean? She's super woman. She is an angel that everyone should strive to be and to look up to.
Can you imagine the stress this poor woman is under at that age? Every day she must ask God to keep her alive one more day so that those children don't have to go to foster care if she dies. What a sad situation, no mother OR grandmother to help. Not to mention any men!
May she live to be 120 !! Such a wonderful soul and spirit! Those children seem to have good spirits as well! They seemed so grateful and appreciative, especially that younger child!! Just bought me to tears!! I live to see stories like this!! Gives a little hope for humanity!!
my grandmother did the same thing she took my three nieces and nephews in but she has me and my mothers help tough my sister died in october i miss her greatly but i know she is in heaven not in pain anymore GOD BLESS this womans beautiful soul! such a strong woman such a beautiful soul and her grandchildren have beautiful souls little sweethearts
I had to instantly pray. A nother who left 6 children for thier great grandmother to raise. I had to pray and repent because I was like how that b...gone leave her children with the great grandmother. God for give me, but your children should always comes first. Some parents rather party a day, then raise there on children. Thank the Lord for the Great Grandma . May God contiually be with them. All of them.
This lady is truly a saint! She deserves all of this. But I am curious about her kids/grandkids and why on earth at her age she is having to take care of so many kids. She deserves her own life, too.
The crazy thing is, she probably STILL would've tried to get something for their christmas even if this didn't happen. She would've probably gone to the dollar store and stretched whatever she could to get them SOMETHING. Bless her ❤❤❤
I love the kids reaction when they came home and how they thanked god. Those kids are being raised well. They will forever be grateful for their grandma
There grandma is dead because I know the one in the red shirt which is called Ali and he said the $500 gift card he got a Nintendo. His auntie smashed it because he was being bad
The 520 people who disliked this need to go see an Optometrist for their eyes. They keep clicking on the wrong button. I teared up the whole way through this
They had to switch the reporters because she was getting so emotional about the situation, I find it so amazing that strangers can have so much compassion for each other, I love this
I don't know why this was recommended to me but I think I needed it. I cried so much watching this. It was so touching to see so many members of the community work together to help this well deserved family. I pray they are doing good better now. God bless them ❤️
That was priceless for a child her age!! See all the beauty they possess inside!! She captured my heart!! Grandma has definitely filled them with lots of Iove!! More of what this world is lacking! May she live a longer life!
"Love God and he will love you back, it's not about the presents it's about the family" That little girl has more wisdom in those statements than alot of adults have in a lifetime.
Thank you Lord for showing pup and showing out. They are very loving family and they never gave up on you Lord. I want to Thank Ms Alice for helping her friend 0ut, and Thank the 1one who came out and helped her friend out. God bless each and everyone of Ya'll in Jesus name Amen. 🙏
I cried during the entire video just witnessing the LORD'S goodness through the love of a friend. Ms. Alice is so precious. And them babies at the end, broke me down. Especially when baby girl said it's not about the presents, but to love GOD, and HE love you back and family. This video is the epitome of what true love looks like! Thank you for sharing!
@Nick Trybull I am not religious, grew up in a religious household, christians and the like. I do agree with not shoving religion down one's throat, however, I do feel that religion like christianity for kids growing up helps to surround them with people who provide good morals. However, as kids get older, the message tends to darken, not in all churches, but some, to where it changes from do unto one another as you would have unto yourself into do unto one another as you would have unto yourself except for all the people we believe should go to hell. It's a double edged sword. I don't believe in the christian religion, I honestly think aliens are more likely as crazy as that sounds lol But there are benefits I could see coming from it at a young age.
Reading thru the comments and seeing that Miss Ella passed 2 years ago... I just wonder where the children are now... Lord please keep them safe and loved 🙏
Jesus Jesus Jesus/YAHSHUAH HA MASHIACH is the best! And the great king of GLORY!!!!!! HALLELUJAH! He is on the move too! And the true and faithful that belong to him will receive a blessing they cannot contain! And I pray that this woman receives a brand new home she can own that she can pass down in the name of YAHSHUAH! Amen! Amen??
Satan is the one who comes to kill steal and destroy! But Jesus Christ came to give life and life more abundantly! Despite the wrong choices people make, Jesus still saves, still forgives, and still redeems!!! HALLELUJAH! Praise YAHSHUAH HA MASHIACH the king of GLORY! He is coming soon!
Man I just lost my Grandma at the beginning of the year. She told me once "if I only knew I was going to love you this much I would've had you before my daughter (my Mom). She made me the man I am today. I miss her so much. God bless this lady. ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for what do for others I am a 72 year old Pensioner I retired when I was 55years old and now live on a pension to see people being helped it great thank you and God Bless you all
When you see a strong ash black woman shed tears, she is in pain. Shes sacrificing. Shes hurting. God bless her and the surprise squad for helping her out. If I had the means I would be on her doorstep tomorrow.
It's not supposed to be a uncommon thing for black women to show emotion we aren't robots and we must stop referring to black women as strong. We are just black women who are more than capable of feeling pain
@@stanislauscorruption3295, wow brother, I was just thinking that EXACT same thing about myself!!! I'm over here blubbering like a baby. Beautiful story, couldn't have happened to a more deserving woman!
I know that this was 3 years ago and I'm just now seeing this but it touched my heart I started tearing up! Ms.Ella is a true woman of God and faith and she rescued her great grandchildren and I know that they're going to look after her. They hooked that whole house up and I'm so happy that the United Nissan group took care of her rent for a year. I was hoping that they would so she can focus on the other bills and the needs of the children and God bless her dear friend Alice, bless both their hearts!😍😍😍
I just saw this video and was reminded of myself, God always always has a ram in the bush when you truely trust him and ask in Jesus name this is the results. Blessings, blessings, and more blessings. It’s not for a day but every day the children now have a new perspective and memories of the goodness of God. Praise his holy name.
such deep respect for this lady. to have taken that stress away and given the family the opportunity to relax and enjoy the festive season. God bless this family.
@@georgeleggins4664 Me too ! Three generations that just dumped their babies 💔 Why ? She was like a mule albeit a wonderful example of pure love from on High but she deserved kindness from her kids and grandkids and should have been the one being cared for by the younger generation just a sad 😔 story on the decline of the family
My heart breaks that Ms. Ella has not only raised her own kids, but THEIR kids, and now her grandchildren's kids! WHAT is happening in this family that NONE of the kids are able/willing to parent their own? It really is heartbreaking. I'm so thankful Fox Surprise Squad chose to help out this wonderful, deserving lady & her family of sweet great grandchildren. May these kids grow up to be responsible & able to take care of their own families -- & of Ms. Ella, who, IMO, deserves a break! Sheesh!
My grandparents adopted my brother and I when I was 7. They saved us, I have no doubt of that. They recused is from going into foster care. They put me and my brother first and made sure we knew we were loved. This is a story so close to my own. I’ll never get to tell my grandparents just how much they mean to me bc there are no words that can even describe my love and heartfelt thanks. This woman is so wonderful. She should be enjoying the company of her family without being a babysitter, but she gives her all for her babies. That right there is a woman with a heart of gold, she is worth more than any priceless jewel. I wish her and her family nothing but joy, happiness, peace of mind, and love. ✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊✊🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
KAVACIEAH Jones Amen he always did for me and my children. And still does even as adults. God is so good❣️🙌🏻☺️🙌🏻 I love that her faith set a example for all her grandchildren also. Instead of seeds of bitterness they showed love and they know even with hardship they were together and had love for each other. I’ve just seen on TV children that want to be adopted together with their siblings. It’s not just about themselves it’s about staying together and they will all remember her and her faith and trust in God. No one can change that. She doesn’t look to he in good health. I’m praying she is able to make it longer then it looks to raising them and that one of her children come and help raise them. She seems very tired. 😢♥️
@@gigisdiamonds ....Yes, I was thinking the same thing about her kids or grand kids stepping up. I moved to the south when I was 10 to find my great grandmother and great-grandfather raising 5 teens. I didn't understand and still don't till this day. Two of there parents lived in the area and the other 3 parents lived in NY. But no one talked about it even though they had more kids that they were raising that lived with them.
@Paloma San Basilio other people rape children Other people eat dog meat. Other people are flat earthers. It doesn't mean that I have to lower my standards to your level
Lebron James, T.I, 50 Cent, The Kardashians, please step in and save this woman from the stress of bills at this age so she can focus all her energy on those children and her health. For a celebrity her monthly basic needs expenses are pocket change but for her it is always $1 away from a crisis. She deserves ALL the help to just have piece of mind. ❤️Ms Ella
You can start at any time. All it takes to start is finding out if anyone needs anything, and most people need a hug and just an ear to listen. You don't need much to make someone's day. God bless you so much.
Where the hell are her children and grandchildren ? who leaves an old lady to raise her own great children ? truly despicable. Well done to this team for making her life better.
There are many possible reasons why she is raising them but it's sad that other adults in the family who are younger don't step up to the plate. She shouldn't be responsible for all of them. And, heaven g orbid, what if she were to pass away? Then what would happen to the kids.
Because anyone that does a thumbs down is so clueless. They need to stop thinking negative. Wake up in the morning, be optimistic. Think positive. Stop looking for the bad.
This one here.. This Ms. Alice has me in tears. Im so honored that she kept her faith in God, and the love she has for her Great Grandchildren. God Bless You
The limo driver with the flowers is trying not to cry at the back of the room when he tells her they're paying her rent for a year. So sweet! X Love these.
Catherine, maybe there someone not far from you who needs just that - love, understanding, and support from a stranger with a big heart... And yes, she's an amazing woman. Can you imagine the responsibility and how much stress she had?
Catherine Huang me too 😩 she shouldn’t have to raise those kids by herself!!! i would love to help her. omg 😭 the whole time i was watching this, i was thinking bout helping her with those kids man. 🤦🏾♀️
I felt this my great grandmother raised me when since I was 3 days old she was 69 when she got me she's 87 I love this so much frfr a black grandma will never give up on her family ❤❤❤❤👏👏👏
Oh my word. Her best friend is there. I havent even made it through the whole clip and I am sobbing away. What a genuinely loving woman. I am so sorry she is alone in all of this.
2:46 "Guess what" "What" "Miss Alice is here today" "Oh no she ain't" I literally started laughing at the way she said it and crying of how sweet this is.
Lord my left eyelash done fell off..whew....I can't stop crying....AMEN THANK YOU LORD FOR THE BLESSINGS YOU HAVE POURED INTO THIS FAMILY...THANK YOU JESUS!!
Can you imagine having your water bill paid as the best gift ever?! Breaks my heart. And for her to come home to this?!!! Love it!!! Miss Ella, you’re amazing, you’re raising those babies right!!
Well the gift isn't the water bill. The gift is the removal of a burden of worry that has been around your neck for years. Just the sheer release of stress was a tremendous gift, even if it was "just' about a water bill
That what I was saying at first. It's like the parents rather party and have fun all day then to raise there on children. Instead of taking care of thier children.
She's teaching those children to be good people by showing them everyday what a good person does. They are so lucky to have each other. I'd love to see an update on this family.
I'm a 32 year man this had me greeting! I was in foster care for the first 7 years of my life because of abuse and poverty. I've turned it around and dedicated myself to the care of the vulnerable as a learning disabilities nurse. I just wish more people out there were kinder and supportive of those in need. This woman should have been afforded the luxury of enjoying her golden years after already giving enough. I may be in Scotland but I felt this from the other side of the world. Bless.
Mag ik zo vrij zijn om te vragen, met een naam als Bart Hagen ben je Nederlander, of niet? Ik was ook een jeugdzorg kind, een pleegkind, dakloos voor ik goed en wel volwassen was. I see you live in Scotland, did you move there? Or were you a Scottish fosterkid. I would anyway really reálly like to talk to you, exchange stories, i dont know any ex-foster or streetkids that didn't end up right back where they started. You studied, turned it all around, that's ashtonishing man!
Literally this grandmother is the nicest and loving person. The grandkids are so lucky to have a grandma this loving. She deserves this and much more. I can’t stop crying and I’m writing this. 😭
Oh I love the cry thank you so much 63 year old white man bawling my head off LOL I love God so much Jesus works God bless the children of the Lord this touched me so much she did everything she could and someone noticed it's so great to see someone care for someone that's doing so much for others God bless her and the lady everybody God bless world or without the Lord there is no salvation
I love how over the top they went for Ms Ella, she has spent her long beautiful life taking care of everyone else and finally she’s going to be taken care of. 🥺❤️
I dread to think what kind of situation those children were in for their great grandmother to have to rescue them and take them in to raise them. I don’t know how many years she’s had them living with her but they sure looked happy, healthy, clean and well dressed. She’s clearly doing a good job and I hope those children really appreciate her and help her.
