    You are a good son, Carlos. Many of us are dealing with this same issue as well as helping with our grandchildren. It's not easy. Your parents raised a good son. It is also heart-warming to see you and Arne and how much you care for each other. Sending you both lots of love.

    Oh Carlos, I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. Please never apologize for taking care of your parents. We all understand. Dealing with elderly parents can be hard. We will always be here whenever you return.
    I am sending much love and light from Los Angeles, CA. Both you and Arne take care of each other and be well.

    Arne, you have so much fun with your dolls and making them clothes. You just light up. Both of you were so much fun in this video. There was so much interesting information coming from the two of you. Very enjoyable.

    My grandmother passed away 22 years ago. She had alzheimer's disease for the last 5 years of her life. It was hard to see such a vibrant, talkative woman slowly fade away into a person who became almost silent and the spark was gone. The visits were difficult, but i wanted her to have a familiar face to see at every visit. Toward the end, i would sit next to her and hold her hand and talk to her even though she didn't know me anymore. I am glad i could be there for her until she died. My heart and best wishes go out to Carlos.
    Hope you get a few more years to share with your mom.

    Another enjoyable video with the two of you. Carlos, I hope your mother is holding her own with her illness. You are such a good son to recognize and do all of the extra things that a mother loves from her children. You will have good memories from all of those visits. My mother is 97 and I go visit her often and I am so blessed to still have her with relative good health except for her vision. The sweater that the two of you purchased on your trip is so gorgeous and I bet the store owners appreciated it. It is so nice to try to support small business owners, especially in these times we are living in. Happy everything to the two of you………………

    Enjoyed hearing about all of your adventures on the cruise. I wish I could accomplish all of the knitting Arne gets done!
    I haven't found the time to get back to my knitting since I moved two weeks ago. You always motivate me to try to keep going.
    Big hugs for you both and sweet, little Freja too! Have a great week! ❤🤗😘

    Arne, right before the pandemic, I saw you working on your scrapbooks in the garden using a sewing machine. That did it for me and now I have many many junk journals that have unleashed a creative spirit I never knew was there. Thank you and Carlos for your wonderful channel and keeping us inspired .

    I’m glad you are back with your exceptional podcast. I always enjoy them. Carlos I know just what you must be feeling. It was like that with my mother too and every visit not knowing if it would be the last. It was almost unbearable. She was in England and I had to travel from the US where I live to visit her. Sending a big Norwegian bear hug to you and Arne and prayers for your mother.

    Carlos wshing your mother good health and sending warmest thoughts to your Father, you and Arne. I know exactly what you mean about being separated. My husband and I have been together since July 1996 and hated being apart. Thankfully we no longer have to do this but when my husband was taken into hospital during Covid and I was not allowed to go with him or visit him it felt absolutely horrendous. We have worked together 24/7 since 1996 and as you say Arne you do not feel complete unless your other half is there with you. It would be absolutely marvellous if you could please do something similar to the lecture you were talking about. The history would be fascinating. Take care and good wishes to you both.

I was my mother's caretaker, so I appreciate all the love and generosity that you are putting into helping your parents live their last years well and comfortably. I know you assume that this caring you give is just a part of being family, but please be proud of yourselves. The world is full of people who cannot do it. Many blessings!

    I really enjoyed this episode. In a way it's nice when you do fewer. It gives us something to look forward to ("absence makes the heart grow fonder"--does that expression exist in Norwegian?) My heart goes out to Carlos as he faces a difficult time with his mother.
    Your relationship reminds of mine with my husband. We were both easily amused by small things. And in the thirty years we had together, we were only apart a handful of times as well. Your next episode will air on the third anniversary of his passing. I will be extra grateful for your love and friendship on that day. Cruising with you was the biggest thing I have done on my own since losing him, and it helped me realize I can still have fun, so thank you.❤

    @mariabell7574 Год назад

    I can't thank you enough, gentlemen, for the joy and hope you've brought me over the past five years. During the pandemic lockdowns, your videos encouraged people like me (I'm a shut-in) to learn to quilt, embroider, crochet and knit. Your fearlessness to take chances, to do the unpredictable, and to embrace life is very inspiring. I haven't started knitting--YET--but my crochet projects have grown by leaps and bounds. I've had several health problems over the years. My recent surgery was successful, and I still have a few more procedures to go, but I have hope and a plan! With your gentle encouragement and beautiful videos, I've also begun learning Norwegian and plan to visit next year, along with a few of my grown children. I have hope like I never did before. I cannot wait to cruise up the stunningly beautiful coast of Norway, and up a fjord (or two or three), see the Northern Lights, shop in Norwegian yarn stores, and confidently roam the city of Oslo. Just wanted to tell you both, from the bottom of my heart: Bless you, bless you, bless you!!!!!🥰
