❤ Barbie please don't ever apologize or make excuses...you did a beautiful job on this home and it's clean and organized. That is a huge thing for a person with dimensia. You are such a a blessing
Great job! I can’t imagine how depressing it is to live here. You did a great thing for this man. His family now has to step up and get him into a place where he can live a healthy life,
I hate dementia. Thank you so much for helping him and his family. Unfortunately, I don’t think he’ll ever be coming home. 😢 Let us know if you ever hear anything.
Hi Barbie. My mom had dementia eventually for these individuals it is no longer"safe" for them to live alone. I hope that this family has had this gentleman evaluated by a professional to determine this. Great job as always you are awesome!
My thoughts and concerns exactly. My husband had this terrible disease and could not have managed on his own. I pray he won't have to be alone any longer 🙏 😔
@@waksa72it's not that simple, eventually they can be dangerous for themselves and the other persons in the building. As the illness progresses they can easily forget to turn off the stove, candles, cigarettes and so on...
Thank you Barbie for stepping up and cleaning this man's home. "Sam" needs to either be with family, in an assisted living home or have a caregiver. He should never be left home alone again.
All started 2 years ago. The family member lives on the other floor, and they was checking him. But he didn't let them in. One day the owner didn't answer for phone call, or knock on the door. Than the family entered to the apartment and realized what is going on. They asked my help and now we hoping help from the city. I don't charge, I help for free, but the family paid $600 :)
You are so brave Barbie !!! Spectacular job as usual. I know I'm supposed to be nice so I'll just say I really hope this family pays much better attention to this man, is shameful on their part.
I bet it smells so much better. It will make it much easier for his family now that they know he needs help. You are so brave and hardworking Barbie! Amazing job.
Barbie, you did such a wonderful job cleaning and you are so kind. Be careful with rugs, they are a trip hazard for the elderly. Physical therapists and social workers usually advise that rugs be removed for safety.
WOW! Nice transformation! The rug really helps elevate the now clean room and distract from the poor condition of the flooring. I feel really bad for this guy and his relatives. Dementia is scary. Thank you for helping these people. You are an Angel!
You did do such a great job but to help Sam the family has to back up his personal belongings. Get all the furniture to the dump. Pest control in. Then paint and floor renovation.
Hi Barbie. Ich folge deinem Kanal schon sehr lange und jedesmal denke ich aufs neue: "Diesmal schafft sie es nicht das es danach einfach toll aussieht" aber jedesmal am Ende des Videos bin ich wieder mal begeistert. Ich bin und bleibe einer deiner größten Fans❤
The first step is to make the environment hostile/inhospitable to the infestation. No piles of paper and no exposed food. That's what Barbie does to prepare the space for the specialists. Barbies role is critical in the process.
I watch alot of these cleaning videos and I often think if people would just throw their garbage out every week it would make a huge difference...so much is from food waste and empty bottles.
Very wonderful of your friend to offer the rug for his place. It fits perfect in the space and looks very nice. Bless you and all the kind people who help and do what they can be it big or small.
super nice job, i bought a wall mop and did my walls with a little dish detergent and it was super fast. its just a kind of modified mop but you can do a room in no time
I dreamed last night that I came to your house and cleaned for you! You were just like, yeah, go ahead. 😂 You are awesome at what you do Barbie and you make a difference in so many lives. Thank you for sharing it!!!
🤗🥰❤️🤗🥰❤️ Hi Barbie, You are an angel 😇 on Earth! It's not the fact that you clean for people for FREE... it's the fact that you do it with so much love, care and compassion for the person, people or the family. The "Before" and "After" pictures speak for themselves... amazing! As far as the cockroaches go, you are correct. You cannot get rid of them by cleaning the place. But, if you have food rotting in the house you will get them. You can try to keep food in containers, do the dishes and throw out the trash. Once again, a HUGE Thank You for what you do and I'm pretty sure that you're not going to read this but, I feel that it needs to be said! 👍
@@cathyprosser1050 WOW 😳... thanks Cathy! I can't believe anyone really reads comments like I do. I actually find myself getting ticked off at people and their ability to "Couch Potato Clean" and make a comment like, 'Hey, you missed a spot!' Enjoy your weekend ahead my friend! 🙏
@@anniewardlow9297 I read a lot of comments, and I actually like the really long ones. I like seeing the different opinions from other people, and I find awesome tips and ideas on how to clean effectively and efficiently. Your comment is lovely. Have a wonderful and blessed weekend.
@@sharong8511 Hahaha, I can ramble on so, thanks for reading the long comments. I agree 💯% ... you sure can get a lot of helpful hints and hacks. I went out and bought a bunch of microfiber towels to use when I clean. They save money on paper towels and do a much better job! Take care, Sharon! 🙏
You are amazing in all you do to help people. Barbie never apologise for all the work you do because I like so many others wouldn’t touch it. You are so kind, caring, thoughtful and generous in all you do. Wishing “Sam” and his family the best. Belated Happy International Women’s Day and Happy Mother’s Day too (it’s Mother’s Day here in Ireland). Have a great week. Mary, Joes wife 🙇♀️👏👍💪🙏💐
If this poor man is this stricken with dementia he shouldn't be living alone. I just lost my mom, she had dementia and lived with my brother when not in a rehab facility (where they send older folks after being in hospital, she was not an addict, it was not that sort of rehab).
This looks like a different room. Thanks so much for helping this poor gentleman. I hope he can get the support he needs. We need less judgement and more compassion in this world. You are an example of what this looks like in action.❤
There's a lady on RU-vid called fly lady & she says that even if you did a small amount of work on a room & you didn't get to finish all the work needed to be done - at least you "hit a lick on a snake" & it's better looking now that it was before... you rock Barbie for doing this for this man 🫂🫂🤗🤗👏🏻👏🏻💯💯💪🏻💪🏻💕💕
Barbie, I don’t talk much on here but follow you & Mac closely. You did WONDERS with this house & I am always so proud of you. God bless your sweet soul!❤
Thank you for helping this man Barbie👏🏻👏🏻💯💯💪🏻💪🏻 you did a wonderful job. You don't need to apologize because even if you did 5% of a cleaning job - it was way better than what you found it. Sometimes the dirt that is there is in layers & you have started by cleaning the first layer. I hope that this man will be given a full time carer & cleaner to keep this home clean on a regular basis. You are the best 💪🏻💪🏻💯💯👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗🫂🫂
We Seniors need to have a “kitchen size trash can “ in living room and our bedrooms. That way we can throw away all food containers. I have one in my bedroom and it really helps.
Hi Barbie. I think what you do is absolutely amazing! The difference from beginning to end is astounding. I hope that the family of the gentleman living in this apartment contacts the landlord to make the necessary repairs so that he can continue to live comfortably. They took an amazing step by reaching out to you for help ❤
Awesome result! It looked a different room when you had finished. A proper living room. Clearly this poor gentleman can't manage on his own anymore so I hope his family get him regular help to keep down the dirt and mess.
You do such a good job for people and I look forward to your videos every week. Hoping to get myself in gear! I did finally clean the top of my fridge!! Enough dust to make a small wig! I don't know what would scare me the most. The bugs or the maggots!! Poor guy. He has such a beautiful place to come home to now. See you next week!!
i just watched the kitchen clean up before this one. all that food going to waste hurts my soul. i worry hes eating stuff that not fresh. my nana did that once upon a time when i was young. made her sick. ask family about it maybe.
