Hi Drew - I knew Dorothy for years.. a few decades actually. She was a rare person with the spunk and spirit of a teenager always. She served the community and always stayed true to herself. My heart goes out to you because I know what a special person she was. Your grief is only a demonstration of your love. My condolences to you .

oh what a touching tribute. i hope he sees this.

"Grief is unexpressed love" Your relationship with her was beautiful.

I'm actually really sad to hear about the loss of your Grandma. The way she loved you and accepted you no matter what was so heartwarming to see. I'm beyond sorry for your loss, Drew. May she rest in peace.

"I trusted that the salmon was done, with her" --I don't think you realize the impact of your words sometimes Drew. The way you put that, though the words are seemingly simple, actually holds such a powerful message underneath. You have such a way of saying things that resonate deep at the core. It's almost like poetry, and you convey things in a way that only you can do.

this video brought me to tears. “i always believed her when she told me she loved me” .. thank you for sharing this drew. The way you talk about things, stitching humor into the massive amounts of pain and grief you are speaking of, i don’t know.. it makes it so much more human? it makes me feel like i’m truly seeing that part of you. I hope you’re okay, and that you’re kind to yourself.

When my grandmother (95) passed away my mom said "you'd think it'd hurt less because you had so much time together, but it made me that much more used to having the time together."

“I dont think I’ll ever have a more meaningful dinner”😭 Your grandma was such a light to see in your videos. It was so obvious how much she loved you, and how beautiful to have some of that love documented. I am so sorry you didn’t get more time with her❤️ Please be gentle with yourself while you grieve, we love you drew❤️

The salmon eating alone and compilation of videos has me crying here. She was beautiful and so was your relationship with her❤️❤️

My 17 year old sister died in September due to an accidental overdose on Fentanyl. This video meant a lot to me and your humor mixed in with your fears and sadness really resonated. The whole "I have a feeling shes gonna live to 100" bit really got to me, because even though I knew my sister was an addict and was doing harsh drugs, I "had a feeling" she would just grow out of it. Ive also struggled with this new found fear of "I have a new feeling that everyones gonna die" and in a lot of ways I think ive been over analyzing my loved ones health and well being because of it. That realization of death being real is so hard to navigate and I still havent quite worked through it. Anyways.. enough rambling in the youtube comments. Im very sorry for your loss Drew. Ive been watching you for over a decade and your grandma always made me laugh my ass off. I hope you find peace. Much love to you and your family.

People really don’t understand what it is like to lose a sibling until it happens, it’s like losing a limb. And I get the fear of thinking now everyone else is going to die, it sucks, I have his cat and all I keep thinking is what am I going to do when his cat dies? And then I torture myself thinking about it. I am so very sorry for your loss, I hope you and your family find any amount of peace possible.

I’ve dreaded seeing this video posted. From the glimpses we had the privilege seeing of the woman your grandma was, she was an amazing person. She was so supportive of you and your craft and I absolutely adored her, as I’m sure I can say we all did. She was so proud of you and you can tell, and I hope you carry that with you forever and can remember that when you need it most.

This was a beautiful tribute to your grandma. I felt like an orphan when my 93 year old grandma passed away when I was in my 20s. Her age didn’t make it easier. You’re allowed to make it a big deal because it is ❤

the way this man can still make me laugh as i’m bawling my eyes out for him is incredible. we love you drew and we all felt the love you had for your grandma through the screen over the years. she was a special lady ❤

I've never heard someone verbalize feelings quite as perfectly as Drew does. Sending love

I think I speak for all of us when I say we absolutely loved your grandma. She was amazing, just from the little bit we saw, and hearing you talk about her, she sounds like anyone would have been lucky to know her. I'm sorry you're going through this. Please allow yourself to grieve and feel your feelings. We love you, and I'm grateful that you felt comfortable to be vulnerable like this with us. You know we are all here for you.

“I want to hang out with my friend” got me. Your relationship with grandma means so much. Even those who aren’t regular, long term fans of your content could take away so much from this friendship. There’s literally no doubt in my mind that you two are the bestest friends I’ve ever gotten the pleasure to know about. This video and your feelings are so important. Thank you for being open about this Drew. You didn’t have to but I know a lot of people are glad you did, including me.

This prompted me to give my Grandma a call. She's 95 and I know our time is limited. I feel the same way about her as you did for your wonderful Grandma. I'm sending you so much love and hugs. The loss of a special person is one of the most painful things a human can experience.

I have two things to say. First I don’t have a normal family structure and I’m so grateful you shared your wonderful grandma with us all this time. It brought me so much joy. Secondly. My best friend passed away last week in a car accident and to watch this video and parasocially spend time with someone I “know” who is also going through loss was helpful. I’m so sorry for your loss but I’m so grateful for you sharing yourself and this amazing woman with us.

I don’t care at what age this happens, it’s never easy. The longer they’re around, the greater the bond! I always thought of her as a bff to you and she’s wonderful to get to know through your channel. Thank you for having her here and thank you for sharing this moment the way you have. It’s relatable yet lighthearted (not that it has to be).

My grandfather was unconscious and snoring a lot when he was on hospice, but my family and I would still talk to him and had normal conversations because we were sure he could hear us. When I had told him I loved him for the last time, he had skipped a snore… I would like to think that was his way of telling me he loved me too. Thank you Drew for sharing this video, it’s really important.

I’m so sorry Drew. Thank you for letting us get to know her in a weird internet relationship kind of way. She was a queen and I’m grateful you let us experience her incredible personality. It was so evident how much you both meant to each other. This video is an amazing tribute.

I feel weirdly personally affected by this. Your grandma was clearly the coolest grandma ever, and a loss that great is awful to go through. I'm so sorry Drew ♡

Yeah I didn't see my grandparents that much because I lived in another country during my teenage to adult life. When they passed away, I didn't really feel any sadness... Just kind of nonchalant about it and I feel ashamed and guilty about that honestly.

The story about your grandmother making you dinner when she could barely move made me cry. I lost my grandfather to esophageal cancer back in 2012. The last few months of his life, he could barely eat. Anything he did manage to get down usually came back up not too long after. I stayed with him for a few days during the winter holidays, and he would make me elaborate dinners every night even though he was sick and could not eat himself. Cooking for people is how he showed someone he cared for them. Even 11 years later, it's still really hard for me to reflect back on those last few days I had with him. I miss him every day. There is no timeline for grief, and it never truly goes away. It just becomes slightly more manageable. Your grandmother being 93 and you having lots of time with her doesn't diminish your pain in any way. That is someone that you love very deeply, and it hurts nonetheless. I'm wishing you all the best, Drew. Your grandmother was a funny, and beautiful woman, and from the videos I've seen of her over the years, it was clear to everyone how much adoration and love she had for you. 🩵

we're so privileged that you shared grandma dorothy with all of us. she really was a kind and interesting and beautiful person, and the world feels a little bit empty today.

the “excuse me?” after “i used to be a nudist”, my GOSH this woman was and will always be a treasure drew, and everything you feel is valid. we love you!! and so does your grandma!! so much!!!

Eternity wouldn’t feel long enough for the people you love. Remind yourself that it’s okay to be sad about missing someone you love

I lost my grandma last January. And it hasn’t really gotten easier. Your relationship with your grandma reminded me of mine in a lot of ways. My grandma was one of my few “safe” people. How lucky are we to experience that kind of unconditional love? I’m so sorry for your loss, Drew. Your grandma seemed like an absolute joy, and really hilarious. Sending you a lot of love 💖

I loved watching those video clips of your grandma, what a light. I just lost my grandma and felt like watching this video again would be a comfort. It was.

Losing someone with unconditional love for you is one of the hardest things to go through. So sorry for your loss

Your grandmother was genuinely an icon. She made me less scared about getting older and her personality shone through every video you made together. She will always be a dazzling star and I have no doubt she is liking and sharing this video from the great beyond 🧡

There is no time limit on sadness. My grandma died long ago and I still get sad and miss her. I really loved watching your Grandma. She was a fun lady. Thank you for sharing this with us. I will pray for peace for you.

Can’t explain how deeply this hurt me. You’re so valid Drew. It’s going to be hard. Nothing but love. I’ve been here since 2014 and I loved all your videos with her.

I feel like grief never really goes away, but in my case I was grieving pretty heavily for like a year and I felt so guilty about it like because she was in her 70’s I wasn’t allowed to or that people would judge me.

this was a beautiful video and tribute to your grandma, one of the most relatable ways ive heard someone speak about death. I lost my grandma a little over a year ago, and there is no shame to be had for wishing you guys had more time, no matter how old she was, it will always be sad and your feelings are always valid. grief changes but it’s always there, which sounds depressing BUT there will be a point where you feel shes “in your heart” and you can carry her memory with you with less sadness, and that not being how you feel now is totally okay and normal. i bet she is so proud of you drew and you should be too

When my grandmother died, people would say the same thing, “you’re so lucky you had so much time with her.” Like I’m happy I did, but I want more. I felt very much like you felt. I’m sorry for your loss. This was a great video.

ʕっ•ᴥ•ʔっ hugs for all of u

I feel honored to have been able to experience her in some small way in your videos over the years. She seemed like such a genuine and interesting person and she will be sorely missed. Rest in peace and power!

Take all th e time to grieve. Talking does help and here you are, talking about it. I miss my 97-year-old grandmother every day. She was the perfect grandmother and I loved her dearly. Love is the most powerful thing. I love the end of this with her throughout your years on KZread. She always made me smile.

Thank you for making a video about this Drew, you have such a way about talking about hard things such as grief. Usually I'd pass up watching a heavy video, but watching this wasn't heavy. It was happy, yet sad but in a good way, hearing all the little things your grandma did was so special. Like the jazz, or the Panera membership. Tears were definitely shed with you over the course of this video haha. Your grandma's memory will live on for years to come in the minds of so many who watched her over the years, even if it was just a short video here or there. Not sure if you will ever read this, but if you do, thank you 💕 and I am sorry for your great loss.

As someone who grew up without grandparents, I very much loved watching your collabs with her. May she rest in peace.

Seeing you talk about the grief of losing your grandma hurt my heart more than any other person just talking about the loss of their grandparents. I've never met her in person but I weirdly miss her too. I've seen u talk about ur grandma being gone in ur more recent videos and I'm glad to see you're still shining thru this.

I avoided watching this video because I almost expected it was about her after watching you so many years. As soon as you said I’m in that persons house I broke. The way you articulated death and pain and hurt. It was powerful. My cousin just lost her nana and when she didn’t cry her brother (half brother) told her she was hard for not crying and how dare her after she seen her suffering. I never seen it as a sign of being hard. I think this video will not only help her but help people who don’t understand ways of grieving. She loves everyone so much. I’m sure your grandmas out there but she’s too busy haunting your enemies. I’m joking see you got me trying to be funny. love you drew

As someone who’s grandparent also passed away this year (causing me to relapse every single day until May, only because i ran out of money) thank you for sharing this. They live in our memory now and would want us to be present.

sorry for your loss stay strong!

Your grandma will forever be loved and remembered, I will always remember how she made me laugh and brightened up my days. I’m sorry for your loss, she will be dearly missed.

I’m so sorry to hear about your grandma. I am going through grief right now as well and this has been one of the only things to make me smile and laugh in days. That’s how you know someone is special, just talking about them makes other people smile.

So sorry Drew😔 I lost my grandmother a few years ago and it still hurts so much❤️ sending love

Back in 2021, my grandma passed away. A few days after she passed away you posted a video with your grandma and it made me so happy to see her and to see that grandchild/grandparent relationship as weird as that sounds. Your grandma was a treasure and we will all miss her.💕

I was going to come and comment something very similar. My grandmother also passed away in 2021 and she was sincerely my best friend in the whole world. Drew had posted something with his grandma shortly after mine’s passing. It really did make me feel good to watch. It truly helped a little.
