I am here after a shout out from Midwest Cleaning. You have no idea how badly I would have wanted a Doom Fogger or two in this cleanup for myself. Those creepy crawlers made me itch
I have been diagnosed with dementia and it’s a hard season of life for me so I do know what I’m talking about. This person had hoarding issues along with the dementia . I too am in my mid seventies. My home is in a very normal condition, very clean. Tasks take me longer these days but they get done. I lose things and I find things because of my dementia but My home is clean. I tell you this to help you understand not all dementia people live anywhere close to the conditions in this video. I pray they received the assistance they need.
Reach out now before it gets worse set up services or have your family do it now before it progresses.my mom had it but I didn't realize.she was all alone .they have meals on wheels.tell trusted neighbors so they can keep eye out for you.sorry you have dementia.❤❤
My mother passed away from Dementia, Alzheimers disease. These beautiful people should NEVER live alone! This sweet lady needs a 24 hour nurse that specializes in Dementia and the torment it causes. You are an angel of Mercy to do this job and bless this resident. You amaze me sweet women, Barbie!!!
I agree I don’t understand why their doctors haven’t arranged home care or a rest home . And where are the family? Surely they should be able to help , it’s a very dangerous situation for this poor woman. My grandmother had dementia and there is no way we would leave her on her own her memory come and went thankfully she always remembered me and no matter how bad she got she always had everything clean and tidy even when she went into the nursing home .
Barbie, I'm here from Midwest Magic Cleaning and have to say you are a powerhouse of a person! Faced with that home, I wouldn't have even known where to start. But you just hopped right on in and got busy. I have subscribed and will watch all of your videos soon! All of those cockroaches made me squirm.
It's amazing how people can criticize you on how you cleaned when they have no idea how to even clean something like that in that condition. When dirt builds up on walls ,furnitures and floor for that amount of time it most of the time damages it. Even after you clean sometime it can still look a little dirty all because it's just damage. Just so you know you did a awesome job on cleaning the 74 year old woman's apartment. Thank you so much for having a heart to even clean it. You clean like a professional cleaner dispite what some negative people say. God bless you and may heaven smile upon you.
Agree 100 percent, from where it was to where it is is short of a miracle with not many days to do. It breaks our hearts that this woman did not get help sooner. I hope she is getting good care and help now. This is heartbreaking. Everyone, check on your elderly neighbors and have a couple of family members number to call.
Sweet lady I,m so thank ful you suit and mask up when you do these types of jobs protect your self first and foremost only one you BARBIE your a life savor and a BIG BEAUTIFUL BLESSING ALSO SWEET LADY you have a fantastic helper and both are very HARD WORKERS GREAT JOB YOU TWO
I came over from migwest magic cleaning. I especially appreciate this particular cleanup video because my dad, one aunt, & two cousins have had alzheimers type dementia. Alzheimers makes people do crazy things they never would have done before the illness. My heart is moved at your compassion for this lady. Instead of ignoring our loved ones when they fall ill, we have to help and encourage them.❤
That's how i also found Barbie's channel. I can't believe how this poor lady lived. Thank you, Barbie, for giving her a fresh start where she can have help. ❤ that and a safer, healthier place too.
When I saw you facing that huge pile just in the doorway, I thought how tiny you were facing all that garbage, but wow are you a brave woman! I was so happy to see someone helping you the second day, this job was by far the absolute worst I’ve seen. How tragic that a human being was living in a literal garbage dump. You are an angel!
I live in Canada. I have not (in my 77 yrs seen anything this bad). God bless the world for having people like you in it. I could never have cleaned this place! You are a very giving person.. thank goodness you received help. Thank you for everything you do. Do you realize I have never seen one cockroach, let alone the amount you put up with. Thank goodness you had coveralls and a good mask on. I am concerned about your health and what you could could bring back to your family unknowingly. That would be terrible. Please give a big thank you to your helper.
A couple of things really stood out on this video for me. One was the ironing board being completely free of trash and looked like it was being used. Just made me laugh. The other was the chair with the plastic cover on it. Just pull off the cover and it’s as good as new. Also,there needs to be an exterminator to help the neighbors. Those cockroaches are all going to be looking for new homes. 😢 Really great job Barbie!! I’m sure the whole building was happy you helped this lady.
@@sylvi4444 Not necessarily. Miami has a lot of roach problems, but once you get rid of the things in the home, such as appliances, trash, and open pet food,where they can hide and feed, and clean everything the extermination companies are good at getting rid of the ones hiding in walls and outlets in apartment buildings and condos.
This is amazing! My mother had dementia but I took care of her in my home. I can't imagine letting my mother live like this. Thank you for what you are doing!
Потому что это не деменция, а ОКР обсессивно-компульсивное расстройство, это совсем другой диагноз заболевания. У меня сейчас мама с деменцией, она так не делает.
Dementia is the brain's connections dying and disconnecting. Whether fast or slow, the parts of the brain it begins in, determines the symptoms. The very end stage of dementia looks similar person to person, but that is all. The other stages of dementia vary person to person, depending on the BRAIN REGIONS BEING AFFECTED. Dementia is a neurological deterioration. To say you know what it is and isn't, shows you don't know what it is. Symptoms vary. Please have compassion for what you do not understand.
@@НинаСмирнова-э4дRussian speaking populations know everything from study sample of one. From your own experience. Never understood why USSR mentality produces people this sure of themselves.
Words fail me! What a horrendous condition, how ever did no one realise this lady was is so much trouble. Just horrifies me to think of someone living like this. Barbie you are a goddess 99.9% of people would struggle to clear and clean this home. There are not the words to describe just how kind and awesome you are. ❤xx
I fell so sad that someone has to live in that condition and that nobody had checked on her 😢 all my respect for you people that got her place clean ❤😮
I am shaken that the building owner didnt completely gut the place with new dry wall, appliances, subfloors, all fixtures. Im shook that this in an apartment building and that got this bad before she was evicted.
From working in property rental, building owners & landlords never want spend money in my experience. They often let their insurance lapse too, so any damage cost isn't covered.
They will have to. But first needs to be clean so that exterminator can come in and then maintenance. As far as eviction... Doubtful. Most won't as long as you pay your rent. If they had been checking in her she probably would have been evicted. As it is, she got help and will need follow up therapy and care. She will likely be moved to a nursing home at some point. Poor woman. I feel so bad for her!😭🙏
I was thinking the same thought. I'm sure there was a horrible odor emanating from that apt, probably long before it got to this point. And unless she has no family to speak of, and no other tenants lived in the building, I'm inclined to think that she was "forgotten about. Ms.Barbie, you have the heart of an Angel, and the stamina of a "SPARTAN", which is my way of saying that I don't know how you can stand the bugs. I was watching this on my tablet, and for the life of me, I kept seeing bugs on the top half of my screen and I almost threw my new tablet. You are a Saint, and so many of us (myself included) love and admire you. No cap! ( No lie).❣️💪🏾🙏🏾
Watched the separate videos of this but just watched this again. I much prefer to see the whole clean in one long video. I'm glad you got help on the second day because that apartment must be the worst you've had to face so far. You did an amazing job for this lady, I really hope she gets all the help she needs now.
Moi j avais baissée les bras pas aidée n'y pour les soins , la maison moi qui était méticuleuse, seule ...oui sa peut arriver à tous. Quand tu demandes de l aide décevant
This lady's apartment will need renovation, painting the floor, I don't know the condition, the kitchen, stove, refrigerator, some pan, plate, bed, mattress, when this situation is extreme, do a live stream so we can make donations and help, so one little of each it is possible not to overload anyone, I came from the MMC channel, I have already watched several of yours, congratulations for helping these people hugs from my country Brazil
I can’t believe how satisfied I felt when you washed the WALLS!!! I was shocked that all the roach poop was gone!!! I have the same microfiber flat mop and I too use it for walls and ceiling. That’s the best thing for the job!
Wow ! See what happens when we forget our elderly. Dementia is such a sad disease. God bless you on your efforts to give people their life back and start fresh.
Your tremendous efforts will allow other professionals to enter into this home owner's space and get her the help she needs. You are a wonderful person!!!!
Your channel was recommended by Midwest Magic Cleaning ( you know, the man with a thousand names…)You’re doing an important job giving back dignity to people in need of assistance ❤!
Barbie, this just makes me feel so hopeful for the lady to get her proper care. I think you should get an award for saving her from a horrible place!! ❤❤❤
Barbie, thank you for helping so many people in need. I often hear you singing in your videos, you must be such a special person and happy knowing you are helping people. May God Bless you and your mission.
Omg, Barbie, you are an Angel 😇. The kitchen looks practically new! And thanks to those who donated food, wipes, etc. to the woman since all that stuff was roach infested. The community looks out for each other.👍🙌
I've watched quite a few of your videos. This seems like the worst hoard, so far. Do you agree? Thank you so much for helping this woman take back control in her life. I hope she is able to get the helper she needs for ongoing care and safety. Getting old with dementia on top of that is such a sad and scary situation. I'm 68. Everyone I know is more afraid of something like this happening to them than actually dying. Keep up the good work!!!!
There is a special place in heaven for you. My Aunt Jean had terrible dementia. She was a wonderful woman. She worked hard all of her life. She and my Uncle Leonard were very special to me. I would go to their house and spend weekends with them. To see her decline so quickly was heartbreaking to watch. So, you should be very proud of yourself. Blessings to you and the lady who lives there 🩷
I thank God I am not in that situation. You are a true gift to those that are in need. We all need to ask blessing for you as you serve those in this situation.
Thank you Barbie for being the one that stepped up to help this lady. I saw an emergency pull string in the bathroom, which means this is at least a senior apartment or assisted living apartment complex. It is beyond understanding. There is no way she was getting weekly or even biweekly nursing or home health aide care, as they wouldn't have been able to access the inside of that apartment. And if they were truly doing home care visits they would have been required to call adult protective services way before it got to this point. They are mandated reporters. All the internal workings of the fridge, stove, tv's would still be infested with roaches. Even the walls would have been infested as they entered through the outlets. And those poor neighbors. They probably had them coming into their apartments as well. Especially during the clean out. Those millions of roaches had to go somewhere. And i cringed to see the piles of garage bags in the common area there. Those roaches were racing to anyplace they could. I hope the apartment manager provides extermination services for the whole building, as it will definitely be necessary. You did an amazing job, even though it is just the first step in this intervention. I hope she has more angels, like you, show up for her.
Barbie, you should be very proud of your work. You are compassionate, caring and try so hard to make homes so much cleaner and better than they were. You are an amazing soul❤
This was a job for a team of people. Edit: Spray all around the door frame and place a tarp which you have sprayed with roach spray in the hall where you can stack the trash bags so as not to contaminate the whole building any more than you can prevent. I’ve had to do this with some clients.
Тя сградата вече е заразена, хлебарките и техните яица са навсякъде.Минават през отдушниците трябва цялата сграда да се дезинфикцира,като се започне от този апартамент.Таваните, стените, ъглите, пода и отдушниците, иначе знам че няма спасение от хлебарките😮😢
You are to be HIGHLY commended for what you do!!! It looks wonderful, the bathroom is sparkling clean!! I bet this lady was sooo happy to see her clean home. I hope she can get help now to keep it clean. You were/ are her angel!!
I don’t see how u do all that by urself. That’s a lot of work. I watch ur videos u are an amazing person u have helped so many people . U should really get someone to help u sweety especially when u have back problems god bless u and thank u for everything u do to help people .
When I was a child our home was literally spotless. Then both my parents got dementia. My sister and I lived quite a long way away from them. I do not drive. My sister went to visit and was so shocked by the state of the place. We moved them into a beautiful retirement home where they had a housekeeper, a care aid and nice meals in a shared dining room. They were much happier and they were safe. It makes me so sad to see people living in these conditions through no fault of their own. You did an amazing job on the place. It is now ready for the exterminator and to be completely renovated. Thank you so much for caring about these vulnerable people.
This is laudable. One needs to have immense committment and passion for this work to be able to go through this and achieve such result. I was finding it difficult to even watch without cringing. Respect for you guys.God bless.
Oh my goodness, you did amazing. Once I saw all those roaches, I probably would have run screaming as I abhor all creepy crawlies. Well done and that was an amazing transformation.
You can be very proud of your work, because you are very courageous, and you have done, ALONE, a job that should have be done by five persons .... and you look also so kind ....
I feel so bad for this lady and I don't even know her. Where is her family? Why isn't any of them helping her? I think she needs to be in assisted living or something where people can take care of her. Barbie, you are such a nice person. Bless you for all that you do for people. I'm so glad we have our very own @Aurikaterina right here in the US! You are wonderful. Hey! Here's an idea. You and her should get together and clean a house here in the US! I would PAY to watch that. It would be a golden palace by the time you two finished! LOL
Barbie, you have such a beautiful heart to help this woman the way you did. Now, the infestation can be addressed, which will also bring peace of mind. Will social services now be able to have the apartment painted and flooring added? ( not carpet to avoid tripping and add ease of cleaning? You are a gift to all you come in contact with ❤
Love hearing the cleaning sounds instead of music ( except for the humming you do as you work 😊 ). Another mammoth and amazing job done here Barbie. You are a saint for helping these people out without judgement. I really hope this lady gets all the support she needs or she goes into a home where she gets support.❤ That comment from that bloke about it being no better is just proof that he is a moron and you should just ignore the moronic comments like that.
You should DEFINITELY be proud of your work - you’ve done an AMAZING job! I was completely overwhelmed when you first got the door open; I don’t know how you do it - you’ve a warrior!!
You did a WONDERFUL, AMAZING JOB!!!! This transformation is incredible. This place will never look brand new. Chances are it will need to be gutted to the studs sprayed for bugs and completely rebuilt for it to ever replace all the damage years of trash and bugs have done. What you were able to do in just a few days though is absolutely incredible and no small undertaking. 🙌🏻 ❤ You should be so proud of this one! Way to go Barbie! Also love the steamer. It is so satisfying to watch. I do believe you can get different attachments for those to do larger areas, grout etc. Not sure if the brand you have offers them or not but may help in the future if you have to do floors or walls. ❤❤
Absolutely incredible, Barbie! This is the first video where it looked like the trash was actually DECOMPOSING at the bottom of the pile because it had been there so long. I want that ozonator, too. I'll check right now to see if I can order it through your page. ❤
I don't know how anyone cover looked this lady with Demetia and not notice she was failing. Good for You Little Miss Barbie. You did an amazing job. You are a true blessing to the people you help. God Bless you.
I don’t know how you could handle that one because it made me sick to see all the filth the poor lady was living in. You are a very special person Barbie to be able to do what you do. You help so many people doing what you do for them! Thank you for helping so many people who really need help!
You are any Angel don't listen to the negative words u get, u have done amassing job truely you have, u wash and clean your way I just wish u lived in England where I am, carry on your gorgeous gift of helping people that need help, ty sweetheart u are 1 in a million i have Alzheimer's I am in my 50s its hard so ty for helping this Lady xxxxx
A mind-blowing amount of work was involved in this clean up. You truly are a superhero, Barbie! Anyone who criticises you has never attempted to clean one of these squalid houses on their own. Ignore them. What a fantastic result.
ITS A OLD VIDEO BUT I FOUND IT AND DECIDED TO WATCH ITOMG GIRL GOD BLESS YOUR HEART AND SOUL SUCH A GIFTED WOMAN .AND YOU HAVE A STRONG STOMACH CUZ I WAS FREAKING OUT WHEN I SEEN YOU STRUGGLING TO OPEN THE DOOR .I THOUGHT THERE WAS A BODY THERE BUT THANK GOT NO.BUT I WAS IN A BIG SHOCH TO SEE HOW HORRIBLE THE CONDITION THIS POOR LADY WAS LIVING.GOD BLESS YOU AND THAT GENTLEMAN THAT GAVE YOU A HAND TO HELP. I AM SO AFRAID OFF MICE AND I WAS SO SCARED FOR YOU BUT YOU TOOK IT LIKE A CHAMP.GREAT JOB BARBIE AMAZING.AMEN
You gave her back her dignity!! That job was amazing. I hope she can have a housekeeper and a health aide to help her. You did a wonderful job and helped her so much. ❤❤❤
Barbie, you are THE Woman❤❤ you are the best cleaner I've seen when it comes to homes like this. That refrigerator is something out of a nightmare.. and the floors, wow. You have the patience and empathy of a Saint. God bless ya.. great job!!😊
YOU can be proud of your job!!! You are not a fairy, but you did a work of fairy..... Congratulations!!!! I admire you being able to clean so durty places..... Congratulations !!! And kisses from France.😊😊😊😊
Barbie you did an amazing job! The walls and the rooms look spotless and shiny you are a wonderful person to help this lady out i look forward to seeing your videos you rock!!❤👍
I love how you handle negative comments. This was a massive undertaking and you did an amazing job! Negative people are never satisfied. You were determined to better this person’s living condition and you did tremendously. I would like to suggest that you get a handheld pump sprayer for your cleaning solutions. Much faster than a squeeze sprayer especially for big jobs like this. Keep doing what you are doing. God bless you!
Oui très grand merci pou l aide apporté. Elle sera encadrée aidée chaque jour pour qu elle jouissez de sa maison. Quand ont aa plus la santé ont peut être arrier très vite là ont critique , mais quand on voué baissé les bras. Tjs demande de l aide pour les course extoui moi aussi j ai peur, un jour fait si n autre sa., je ne boisée fume joue, me drogue pas, alors LE DEBOREMENT PEUX T ARRIVÉ VITE E T TOUT E MONDE TOMBÉE
Your compassion for people with mental and physical challenges is an inspiration. I watch and want to get in there and help you. God bless you for your heart and extremely hard work.
I’ve just started to watch your videos, Barbie. You are so compassionate to do this for others. Sometimes people just need a helping hand. I hope this person gets the help they so desperately needs. I’m glad you had someone to help you on that first day. So overwhelming. Side notes: 1. That STEAM CLEANER is a GODSEND! 2. The Harry Potter joke… gross but fitting. 3. Your struggle with the chair in the living room… at least you tried lol Lastly, for someone to say the apt doesn’t look any better is beyond asinine. You should be proud of what you accomplished here. Keep doing what you do, Barbie. I would have loved to see that stove pulled out. Too bad it was stationary. 🙌🏻
To have just cleared this apartment would have been a huge undertaking. To return it to a clean, safe, livable condition is amazing. Dedication, perseverance and hard work from you made it possible . 🤗
There is a quote from Shakespeare that my daughter likes: “And though she be but little, she is fierce”. That is you! You are little but fierce. Thanks for the work you do. It is so necessary. ❤
You are a God send. So grateful for you and your calling. When people get sick mentally n physically n cant even get out of bed or have anyone help in yrs then this is what happens. The mental stress for the poor lady is unimageable having no choice but live in it. Thank God for you and not making the people feel more degraded n ashamed than they already are ❤ much love
Thinking about someone with dementia living in those conditions is heartbreaking! What you accomplished in that apartment is nothing short of a miracle!
Barbie, you are such a beautiful person to realise human frailty and work so hard to make homes nice to live in. That will I am sure have such a positive impact on the people you are helping x
Barbie, You are a special Lady. You should be proud because the work you’ve done is such a huge turnaround from what it was and you have a huge heart to clean this home. The lady must be so so happy that you came into her life to help her. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Barbie, you are a tenacious woman. I love your steamer. We have one. It’s great. You need one of those pump sprayers that they use to spray yard chemicals. You could use it to spray product over a wide area.
Barbie, I encourage you to add Pinesol to your cleaning supplies. I have heard that bugs hate Pinesol. You want bugs gone, and to stay that way! God bless for helping those who can not help themselves.
You did an amazing job as always. My question is did anyone do anything about the infestation of roaches in her apartment? That needs to be addressed immediately.
Thank you, Barbie. Your videos have inspired me to do something every chance I get up and move around which has put a dent in the decluttering that needs to be done.
How could anyone let a poor person live in this terrible mess I do hope she has been put into a lovely care AND I THINK YOU ARE SOOOOOO BRAVE CLEANING THIS AWFUL MESS OUT WELL DONE TO YOU ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for helping her! Not caring for our elderly is one part of why the US isn’t considered a 1st-world country any more. There is a woman in my apartment building with dementia, who smoked inside and ended up starting a fire. Everyone was okay, luckily, but everyone had some damage from the incident. After insurance restored her apartment she moved back in with no increase in outside care 😱
I have literally cried and prayed for most of this video…..you are a saint for toughing this one out and I hope with all my heart that the lady wasn’t actually staying in this apartment at the moment
There is no way anybody could live in this house was the lady living with somebody or in the hospital while you clean this house I feel so bad for you. I don’t know how you do it so much work and scary stuff all the bugs you’re not afraid to bring bugs home with you I know your work always looks so nice when you get done and my hats off to you and your husband for doing all that hard that’s hard work. I know you’re gonna get many blessings for all the work you have done for people that can’t do it on their own, I kind a know how those people feel and I don’t have dementia like this lady but I’m starting to forget things I am disabled because I can’t walk through things like I used to and I keep thinking I’m gonna get it down sooner or later, but I think you’re a wonderful person and your husband, and whoever else helps you God bless you all now this lady will come back to this house I know I don’t look like 100% better on the whole will be thank you for all your work that you do for the people and you have a wonderful year new year👍👍👍🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️
Well, well, well- look who pulled off another AMAZING transformation. Barbie… you are an angel. I continue to be amazed by you. Fabulous job- again!!!!
You are a saint. This poor woman needs someone to be power of attorney, and she needs help. Probably, a nurse and a housekeeper as well as a therapist.
I'm proud of your work too, and I like how you show what products and mops and tools you use, and give a review of them. What cleaners you use in different situations. It is very informative and useful to know what works and what doesn't work as well. Thank you Barbie.

On hoarding TV shows they often have a whole team of people clearing the place out so I'm amazed at how tirelessly you tackled this home!
Now I’m surprised too! That fay when i had help, was the most helpful thing ever. Without that guy I still will be there…

That lady’s apartment was a biohazard. I cannot even imagine Mack agreeing to clean it. You gave her an amazing gift.
It's amazing how people can criticize you on how you cleaned when they have no idea how to even clean something like that in that condition.

I came over from migwest magic cleaning.
I especially appreciate this particular cleanup video because my dad, one aunt, & two cousins have had alzheimers type dementia.
Alzheimers makes people do crazy things they never would have done before the illness.
My heart is moved at your compassion for this lady.
Instead of ignoring our loved ones when they fall ill, we have to help and encourage them.❤
Welcome here 💓 😊
That's how i also found Barbie's channel.
I can't believe how this poor lady lived. Thank you, Barbie, for giving her a fresh start where she can have help. ❤ that and a safer, healthier place too.
When I saw you facing that huge pile just in the doorway, I thought how tiny you were facing all that garbage, but wow are you a brave woman! I was so happy to see someone helping you the second day, this job was by far the absolute worst I’ve seen. How tragic that a human being was living in a literal garbage dump. You are an angel!

Hope that poor woman is put in a care home , she can never be alone !!
Sometimes it’s their wish To remain at home until the end no matter what, she can still get the support she needs from carers
Barbie said now that the living condition are better it will open doors for her for more help and support.
If she has support at home from care workers then she will be fine. In uk we have many people with dementia living at home with support.
If she ever had support she wouldn't be living in that garbage dump !!!!
I live in Canada. I have not (in my 77 yrs seen anything this bad). God bless the world for having people like you in it. I could never have cleaned this place! You are a very giving person.. thank goodness you received help. Thank you for everything you do. Do you realize I have never seen one cockroach, let alone the amount you put up with. Thank goodness you had coveralls and a good mask on. I am concerned about your health and what you could could bring back to your family unknowingly. That would be terrible. Please give a big thank you to your helper.
Barbie.....you are Angel!!!! Thank you for everything that you do. God always be with you!!!
A couple of things really stood out on this video for me. One was the ironing board being completely free of trash and looked like it was being used. Just made me laugh. The other was the chair with the plastic cover on it. Just pull off the cover and it’s as good as new. Also,there needs to be an exterminator to help the neighbors. Those cockroaches are all going to be looking for new homes. 😢
Really great job Barbie!! I’m sure the whole building was happy you helped this lady.
I was thinking I’d hate to live there if they only exterminated her apartment. The entire building has to be done, multiple times.
She'll never get rid of the roaches until they haul the stove and frig out of there.
@@ohioitis200Those roaches and other critters are inside walls, baseboards and under floors. This place needs to be torn down, it’s a health hazard.
@@sylvi4444 Not necessarily. Miami has a lot of roach problems, but once you get rid of the things in the home, such as appliances, trash, and open pet food,where they can hide and feed, and clean everything the extermination companies are good at getting rid of the ones hiding in walls and outlets in apartment buildings and condos.
This is amazing! My mother had dementia but I took care of her in my home. I can't imagine letting my mother live like this. Thank you for what you are doing!
Потому что это не деменция, а ОКР обсессивно-компульсивное расстройство, это совсем другой диагноз заболевания. У меня сейчас мама с деменцией, она так не делает.
Dementia doesn’t do that, that person is a hoarder.
Dementia is the brain's connections dying and disconnecting. Whether fast or slow, the parts of the brain it begins in, determines the symptoms.
The very end stage of dementia looks similar person to person, but that is all. The other stages of dementia vary person to person, depending on the BRAIN REGIONS BEING AFFECTED.
Dementia is a neurological deterioration. To say you know what it is and isn't, shows you don't know what it is.
Symptoms vary. Please have compassion for what you do not understand.
Not everyone has kids.

Words fail me! What a horrendous condition, how ever did no one realise this lady was is so much trouble. Just horrifies me to think of someone living like this. Barbie you are a goddess 99.9% of people would struggle to clear and clean this home. There are not the words to describe just how kind and awesome you are. ❤xx
I fell so sad that someone has to live in that condition and that nobody had checked on her 😢 all my respect for you people that got her place clean ❤😮
I am shaken that the building owner didnt completely gut the place with new dry wall, appliances, subfloors, all fixtures. Im shook that this in an apartment building and that got this bad before she was evicted.
From working in property rental, building owners & landlords never want spend money in my experience. They often let their insurance lapse too, so any damage cost isn't covered.
They will have to. But first needs to be clean so that exterminator can come in and then maintenance. As far as eviction... Doubtful. Most won't as long as you pay your rent. If they had been checking in her she probably would have been evicted. As it is, she got help and will need follow up therapy and care. She will likely be moved to a nursing home at some point. Poor woman. I feel so bad for her!😭🙏
I was thinking the same thought. I'm sure there was a horrible odor emanating from that apt, probably long before it got to this point. And unless she has no family to speak of, and no other tenants lived in the building, I'm inclined to think that she was "forgotten about. Ms.Barbie, you have the heart of an Angel, and the stamina of a "SPARTAN", which is my way of saying that I don't know how you can stand the bugs. I was watching this on my tablet, and for the life of me, I kept seeing bugs on the top half of my screen and I almost threw my new tablet. You are a Saint, and so many of us (myself included) love and admire you. No cap! ( No lie).❣️💪🏾🙏🏾
Watched the separate videos of this but just watched this again. I much prefer to see the whole clean in one long video. I'm glad you got help on the second day because that apartment must be the worst you've had to face so far. You did an amazing job for this lady, I really hope she gets all the help she needs now.
Moi j avais baissée les bras pas aidée n'y pour les soins , la maison moi qui était méticuleuse, seule ...oui sa peut arriver à tous.
Quand tu demandes de l aide décevant
This lady's apartment will need renovation, painting the floor, I don't know the condition, the kitchen, stove, refrigerator, some pan, plate, bed, mattress, when this situation is extreme, do a live stream so we can make donations and help, so one little of each it is possible not to overload anyone, I came from the MMC channel, I have already watched several of yours, congratulations for helping these people hugs from my country Brazil
OMG I laughed when u said the little mouse was your supervisor 🐭
I can’t believe how satisfied I felt when you washed the WALLS!!! I was shocked that all the roach poop was gone!!! I have the same microfiber flat mop and I too use it for walls and ceiling. That’s the best thing for the job!
Me too! It was unbelievable.
Wow ! See what happens when we forget our elderly. Dementia is such a sad disease. God bless you on your efforts to give people their life back and start fresh.
Dementia doesn’t do that, that person is a hoarder (well before getting ill).
Hhhhh y y
Your tremendous efforts will allow other professionals to enter into this home owner's space and get her the help she needs. You are a wonderful person!!!!
This was no small task. Bless you for helping this woman!
Your channel was recommended by Midwest Magic Cleaning ( you know, the man with a thousand names…)You’re doing an important job giving back dignity to people in need of assistance ❤!
Thank you!!! Dr. Ungala is always mention me in his videos!! 😂😂😂😂
Barbie, this just makes me feel so hopeful for the lady to get her proper care. I think you should get an award for saving her from a horrible place!!
❤❤❤
💯💯💯
Je suis d accord une médaille .
Franchement SUPER .
courageuse merci pour la vieille dame se desaroi pouvais lui être fatale
Barbie, thank you for helping so many people in need. I often hear you singing in your videos, you must be such a special person and happy knowing you are helping people. May God Bless you and your mission.
She is the real life Snow White 😊
The refrigerator should be thrown out ! You should never reuse it once it had rotten food in it!
@@theresebegin817Bleach can disinfect it.
You are a wonderful and kind person to help people like that. I wish more people were like you. You are great.❤
Omg, Barbie, you are an Angel 😇. The kitchen looks practically new! And thanks to those who donated food, wipes, etc. to the woman since all that stuff was roach infested. The community looks out for each other.👍🙌
God bless you for your hard work and compassion.
Midwest magic cleaning suggested your channel. This is an amazing thing you did. ❤
I've watched quite a few of your videos. This seems like the worst hoard, so far. Do you agree? Thank you so much for helping this woman take back control in her life. I hope she is able to get the helper she needs for ongoing care and safety. Getting old with dementia on top of that is such a sad and scary situation. I'm 68. Everyone I know is more afraid of something like this happening to them than actually dying. Keep up the good work!!!!
Boy oh boy, what a battleground! 😳
Maybe this was the worst home... yes :(
I agree with you. Most of us oldsters DONT even want to think about the possibility of memory problems.
It's not about judging the people will illness its about the amazing job barbie does
There is a special place in heaven for you. My Aunt Jean had terrible dementia. She was a wonderful woman. She worked hard all of her life. She and my Uncle Leonard were very special to me. I would go to their house and spend weekends with them. To see her decline so quickly was heartbreaking to watch. So, you should be very proud of yourself. Blessings to you and the lady who lives there 🩷
I thank God I am not in that situation. You are a true gift to those that are in need. We all need to ask blessing for you as you serve those in this situation.
Thank you Barbie for being the one that stepped up to help this lady. I saw an emergency pull string in the bathroom, which means this is at least a senior apartment or assisted living apartment complex. It is beyond understanding. There is no way she was getting weekly or even biweekly nursing or home health aide care, as they wouldn't have been able to access the inside of that apartment. And if they were truly doing home care visits they would have been required to call adult protective services way before it got to this point. They are mandated reporters. All the internal workings of the fridge, stove, tv's would still be infested with roaches. Even the walls would have been infested as they entered through the outlets. And those poor neighbors. They probably had them coming into their apartments as well. Especially during the clean out. Those millions of roaches had to go somewhere. And i cringed to see the piles of garage bags in the common area there. Those roaches were racing to anyplace they could. I hope the apartment manager provides extermination services for the whole building, as it will definitely be necessary.
You did an amazing job, even though it is just the first step in this intervention. I hope she has more angels, like you, show up for her.
Barbie, you should be very proud of your work. You are compassionate, caring and try so hard to make homes so much cleaner and better than they were. You are an amazing soul❤
Your video kept me company as I prepare for a yard sale. It is inspiration to not keep STUFF! My hat is off to you for tackling that hoard.
That’s definitely the biggest clean you’ve done. You did a great job for what you had to work with.
This was a job for a team of people. Edit: Spray all around the door frame and place a tarp which you have sprayed with roach spray in the hall where you can stack the trash bags so as not to contaminate the whole building any more than you can prevent. I’ve had to do this with some clients.
Тя сградата вече е заразена, хлебарките и техните яица са навсякъде.Минават през отдушниците трябва цялата сграда да се дезинфикцира,като се започне от този апартамент.Таваните, стените, ъглите, пода и отдушниците, иначе знам че няма спасение от хлебарките😮😢
Thanks for sharing this great idea!
You are to be HIGHLY commended for what you do!!! It looks wonderful, the bathroom is sparkling clean!! I bet this lady was sooo happy to see her clean home. I hope she can get help now to keep it clean. You were/ are her angel!!
Wow!!!
Barbie, I don't think I've ever seen anything like it! For ONE person to do!!!!!
That was truly a superhuman feat!!!
I don’t see how u do all that by urself. That’s a lot of work. I watch ur videos u are an amazing person u have helped so many people . U should really get someone to help u sweety especially when u have back problems god bless u and thank u for everything u do to help people .
What a friend you have! He deserves new shoes and a steak dinner at the very least lol. Good job guys!
What you have done here is incredible and you have given this woman her home back
When I was a child our home was literally spotless. Then both my parents got dementia. My sister and I lived quite a long way away from them. I do not drive. My sister went to visit and was so shocked by the state of the place. We moved them into a beautiful retirement home where they had a housekeeper, a care aid and nice meals in a shared dining room. They were much happier and they were safe. It makes me so sad to see people living in these conditions through no fault of their own. You did an amazing job on the place. It is now ready for the exterminator and to be completely renovated. Thank you so much for caring about these vulnerable people.
This is laudable. One needs to have immense committment and passion for this work to be able to go through this and achieve such result. I was finding it difficult to even watch without cringing. Respect for you guys.God bless.
Oh my goodness, you did amazing. Once I saw all those roaches, I probably would have run screaming as I abhor all creepy crawlies. Well done and that was an amazing transformation.
You can be very proud of your work, because you are very courageous, and you have done, ALONE, a job that should have be done by five persons .... and you look also so kind ....
I feel so bad for this lady and I don't even know her. Where is her family? Why isn't any of them helping her? I think she needs to be in assisted living or something where people can take care of her. Barbie, you are such a nice person. Bless you for all that you do for people. I'm so glad we have our very own @Aurikaterina right here in the US! You are wonderful. Hey! Here's an idea. You and her should get together and clean a house here in the US! I would PAY to watch that. It would be a golden palace by the time you two finished! LOL
😢 This video really made me cry. I have a neighbour with dementia, but she's cared of nurses each day. I wish that lady all the best and care. ❤
Barbie, you have such a beautiful heart to help this woman the way you did. Now, the infestation can be addressed, which will also bring peace of mind. Will social services now be able to have the apartment painted and flooring added? ( not carpet to avoid tripping and add ease of cleaning?
You are a gift to all you come in contact with ❤
Love hearing the cleaning sounds instead of music ( except for the humming you do as you work 😊 ). Another mammoth and amazing job done here Barbie. You are a saint for helping these people out without judgement. I really hope this lady gets all the support she needs or she goes into a home where she gets support.❤ That comment from that bloke about it being no better is just proof that he is a moron and you should just ignore the moronic comments like that.
This woman needs much more help than just a weekly nurse. She can't live alone anymoe. :(
You should DEFINITELY be proud of your work - you’ve done an AMAZING job! I was completely overwhelmed when you first got the door open; I don’t know how you do it - you’ve a warrior!!
You did a WONDERFUL, AMAZING JOB!!!! This transformation is incredible. This place will never look brand new. Chances are it will need to be gutted to the studs sprayed for bugs and completely rebuilt for it to ever replace all the damage years of trash and bugs have done. What you were able to do in just a few days though is absolutely incredible and no small undertaking. 🙌🏻 ❤ You should be so proud of this one! Way to go Barbie! Also love the steamer. It is so satisfying to watch. I do believe you can get different attachments for those to do larger areas, grout etc. Not sure if the brand you have offers them or not but may help in the future if you have to do floors or walls. ❤❤
Thank you! 💗
Absolutely incredible, Barbie! This is the first video where it looked like the trash was actually DECOMPOSING at the bottom of the pile because it had been there so long. I want that ozonator, too. I'll check right now to see if I can order it through your page. ❤
I don't know how anyone cover looked this lady with Demetia and not notice she was failing. Good for You Little Miss Barbie. You did an amazing job. You are a true blessing to the people you help. God Bless you.
Blessings to you Barbara.
Thank you so much 💓
I don’t know how you could handle that one because it made me sick to see all the filth the poor lady was living in. You are a very special person Barbie to be able to do what you do. You help so many people doing what you do for them! Thank you for helping so many people who really need help!
Oh Barbie! I wish I had your energy! You are amazing!
You are any Angel don't listen to the negative words u get, u have done amassing job truely you have, u wash and clean your way I just wish u lived in England where I am, carry on your gorgeous gift of helping people that need help, ty sweetheart u are 1 in a million i have Alzheimer's I am in my 50s its hard so ty for helping this Lady xxxxx
A mind-blowing amount of work was involved in this clean up. You truly are a superhero, Barbie! Anyone who criticises you has never attempted to clean one of these squalid houses on their own. Ignore them. What a fantastic result.
ITS A OLD VIDEO BUT I FOUND IT AND DECIDED TO WATCH ITOMG GIRL GOD BLESS YOUR HEART AND SOUL SUCH A GIFTED WOMAN .AND YOU HAVE A STRONG STOMACH CUZ I WAS FREAKING OUT WHEN I SEEN YOU STRUGGLING TO OPEN THE DOOR .I THOUGHT THERE WAS A BODY THERE BUT THANK GOT NO.BUT I WAS IN A BIG SHOCH TO SEE HOW HORRIBLE THE CONDITION THIS POOR LADY WAS LIVING.GOD BLESS YOU AND THAT GENTLEMAN THAT GAVE YOU A HAND TO HELP. I AM SO AFRAID OFF MICE AND I WAS SO SCARED FOR YOU BUT YOU TOOK IT LIKE A CHAMP.GREAT JOB BARBIE AMAZING.AMEN
You gave her back her dignity!! That job was amazing. I hope she can have a housekeeper and a health aide to help her. You did a wonderful job and helped her so much. ❤❤❤
I am a new subscriber and am amazed at ur commitment to what u do. Absolutely not my calling but what a blessing to those u assist.
Thank you ❤️
I am proud of you. You are a Godsend, a hero. So sorry someone made a mean remark. I hope my comment will help to forget it.
Barbie, you are THE Woman❤❤ you are the best cleaner I've seen when it comes to homes like this. That refrigerator is something out of a nightmare.. and the floors, wow. You have the patience and empathy of a Saint. God bless ya.. great job!!😊
Это была огромная работа! Моё уважение и восхищение, как Вы справились с ней !!!
Your humor is amazing Barbie! 😂😂 moving picture like in Harry Potter 🤣
😁
YOU can be proud of your job!!! You are not a fairy, but you did a work of fairy..... Congratulations!!!! I admire you being able to clean so durty places..... Congratulations !!! And kisses from France.😊😊😊😊
Barbie you did an amazing job! The walls and the rooms look spotless and shiny you are a wonderful person to help this lady out i look forward to seeing your videos you rock!!❤👍
I love how you handle negative comments. This was a massive undertaking and you did an amazing job! Negative people are never satisfied. You were determined to better this person’s living condition and you did tremendously. I would like to suggest that you get a handheld pump sprayer for your cleaning solutions. Much faster than a squeeze sprayer especially for big jobs like this. Keep doing what you are doing. God bless you!
Oui très grand merci pou l aide apporté.
Elle sera encadrée aidée chaque jour pour qu elle jouissez de sa maison.
Quand ont aa plus la santé ont peut être arrier très vite là ont critique , mais quand on voué baissé les bras.

T TOUT E MONDE TOMBÉE
Handle the negative comments = deleting them. Amazing indeed 😂
Saw your post From Free stuff NYC. Sending you little support ❤❤❤❤
Awww thank you so much 💓
Your compassion for people with mental and physical challenges is an inspiration. I watch and want to get in there and help you. God bless you for your heart and extremely hard work.
I’ve just started to watch your videos, Barbie. You are so compassionate to do this for others. Sometimes people just need a helping hand. I hope this person gets the help they so desperately needs. I’m glad you had someone to help you on that first day. So overwhelming.
Side notes:
1. That STEAM CLEANER is a GODSEND!
2. The Harry Potter joke… gross but fitting.
3. Your struggle with the chair in the living room… at least you tried lol
Lastly, for someone to say the apt doesn’t look any better is beyond asinine. You should be proud of what you accomplished here.
Keep doing what you do, Barbie. I would have loved to see that stove pulled out. Too bad it was stationary.
🙌🏻
Thank you so much and welcome here 💖
To have just cleared this apartment would have been a huge undertaking. To return it to a clean, safe, livable condition is amazing. Dedication, perseverance and hard work from you made it possible . 🤗
There is a quote from Shakespeare that my daughter likes: “And though she be but little, she is fierce”. That is you! You are little but fierce. Thanks for the work you do. It is so necessary. ❤
This is perfect for Barbie, adding with a heart of gold and hands that make a difference.
You are a God send. So grateful for you and your calling. When people get sick mentally n physically n cant even get out of bed or have anyone help in yrs then this is what happens. The mental stress for the poor lady is unimageable having no choice but live in it. Thank God for you and not making the people feel more degraded n ashamed than they already are ❤ much love
Thinking about someone with dementia living in those conditions is heartbreaking! What you accomplished in that apartment is nothing short of a miracle!
Barbie, you are such a beautiful person to realise human frailty and work so hard to make homes nice to live in. That will I am sure have such a positive impact on the people you are helping x
That man helping doesn’t fuss with trying to salvage trashed items, good for him!!
Amazing job you gave this lady her dignity back and also the ability to get help to live safely for the rest of her life
Barbie, You are a special Lady. You should be proud because the work you’ve done is such a huge turnaround from what it was and you have a huge heart to clean this home. The lady must be so so happy that you came into her life to help her. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Barbie, you are a tenacious woman. I love your steamer. We have one. It’s great. You need one of those pump sprayers that they use to spray yard chemicals. You could use it to spray product over a wide area.
Barbie, I encourage you to add Pinesol to your cleaning supplies. I have heard that bugs hate Pinesol. You want bugs gone, and to stay that way! God bless for helping those who can not help themselves.
What a terrible mess, you did a wonderful job! Bless you Barbie!
I love your talking about how you have to clean the whole house so this poor lady can stay at home. You care. You also do a great job.
You did an amazing job as always. My question is did anyone do anything about the infestation of roaches in her apartment? That needs to be addressed immediately.
Thank you, Barbie. Your videos have inspired me to do something every chance I get up and move around which has put a dent in the decluttering that needs to be done.
How could anyone let a poor person live in this terrible mess I do hope she has been put into a lovely care AND I THINK YOU ARE SOOOOOO BRAVE CLEANING THIS AWFUL MESS OUT WELL DONE TO YOU ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for helping her! Not caring for our elderly is one part of why the US isn’t considered a 1st-world country any more.
There is a woman in my apartment building with dementia, who smoked inside and ended up starting a fire. Everyone was okay, luckily, but everyone had some damage from the incident. After insurance restored her apartment she moved back in with no increase in outside care 😱
Are you gonna offer to help her? Check on her?
We are indeed a first world country. Not sure where you get that idea
You cleaned this house like it was your own home, you are truly an angel.You are amazing❤
I have literally cried and prayed for most of this video…..you are a saint for toughing this one out and I hope with all my heart that the lady wasn’t actually staying in this apartment at the moment
Every time I watch a video, I am amazed by you. You are an amazing young woman.
Thank you 💓
There is no way anybody could live in this house was the lady living with somebody or in the hospital while you clean this house I feel so bad for you. I don’t know how you do it so much work and scary stuff all the bugs you’re not afraid to bring bugs home with you I know your work always looks so nice when you get done and my hats off to you and your husband for doing all that hard that’s hard work. I know you’re gonna get many blessings for all the work you have done for people that can’t do it on their own, I kind a know how those people feel and I don’t have dementia like this lady but I’m starting to forget things I am disabled because I can’t walk through things like I used to and I keep thinking I’m gonna get it down sooner or later, but I think you’re a wonderful person and your husband, and whoever else helps you God bless you all now this lady will come back to this house I know I don’t look like 100% better on the whole will be thank you for all your work that you do for the people and you have a wonderful year new year👍👍👍🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️
Well, well, well- look who pulled off another AMAZING transformation. Barbie… you are an angel. I continue to be amazed by you. Fabulous job- again!!!!
Thank you! ❤️❤️
What you did in that apartment is amazing. You are a beautiful woman inside and out. ❤
You should be very proud of yourself! You make a lot of people have such better lives!!!
You are a saint. This poor woman needs someone to be power of attorney, and she needs help. Probably, a nurse and a housekeeper as well as a therapist.
I'm proud of your work too, and I like how you show what products and mops and tools you use, and give a review of them. What cleaners you use in different situations. It is very informative and useful to know what works and what doesn't work as well. Thank you Barbie.
Overwhemed just looking at this 😮
Huge job
