The Dark Reality of Home Care: My Father's Final Days
When I launched my YouTube channel I promised myself and you that if I reached 100,000 subscribers I would tell the true story of how my dad died, and the horrors of home care. Unfortunately, on the exact day I reached 100,000 subscribers YouTube falsely demonetized this channel, and my others. The loss of my income was bad enough, but now YouTube hides my reach. Last year at this time this video would have gotten hundreds of thousands of views. Now that I am demonetized, I'll be lucky if a few hundred people see it. Honestly, that's the worst part because I produced this video to help people, and almost no one will see it. If you do, please leave a comment below and share your thoughts about this. And please join me over on Patreon so you can see all my content, including all my videos and podcasts that were once on YouTube. Thank you, and sorry for the hassle. It's not my fault.
