I really love the brother's girlfriend's attitude. She is so loving towards the kid. Like a mother. Family is lucky.
For real. I’m not a super emotional person by any stretch, seriously, but that stood out to me. I bet the older brother is so happy he found someone who can share their love with Jojo along side of them with no second thought. Super cool, no doubt
My best friend is intellectually disabled and her brother married a woman who is SO mean to her about her disability and it disgusts me.
@@destinyandseverus i know right.. I have a disabled cousin and I know how much just a friendly behavior mean to them. We live apart and meet once in years if I go to the native place, yet he always call on birthdays etc. Because I am the only cousin who actually talk to him normally and not just to see if he need anything.
@@destinyandseverus that's so sad.
I used to know a kid with bad autism and bad ticks. He was the sweetest. We had a school play back in the day, and he was my dance partner. Such a nice kid. His mom liked me, my mom and him were so nice to each other, and every other kid loved him. The only problem was that his para was mean to him. When he didn’t do something right away, or ticked, she yelled at him to do it or stop yelling. It was his ticks, he couldn’t hold them back! She was mean to the rest of us too. There was a really nice para too though, that helped him most of the day. But when she was sick was the worst. The kid loved everybody, so sweet, thought of everybody, and his mom was so nice. VERY kind family, and he didn’t deserve to be yelled at.. he went to middle school, and I’m schooling from home, but next year I get to see him again. My best friend also loved him and she’s sad she’s going to a different school. But I’m just happy he doesn’t have to deal with this para anymore
A few years ago my friend and his wife gave birth to the most beautiful special needs little boy. They had a hard time dealing with it and were in the verge of splitting up and giving the prescious little boy up for adoption. I showed them this video and BECAUSE OF YOU JOJO today they arw happily raising their son. They constantly thank me for showung them this video. It wasnt me It WAS YOU JOJO that changed their life. Thank you my friend fir just being you. Jojo. You are an inspiration and my hero. Thank you again you beautiful human being. You have a lot of fans now. I love you bro.
Wow. Happy a coincidence that a camera crew was there when George “surprised” her with that totally unexpected visit.
Ah this breaks my heart. Still to this day parents are offered the option of adoption, or if they are tested prenatally, to abort children with downs syndrome. From health professionals - people you often blindly trust to know what the right decision is! It's appalling when people with downs sydnrome are able to lead such fulfilling and whole lives! It is a SYNDROME not a death sentence. There are so many supports available for even more critical and life threatening conditions and this is how we treat people who grow up to go to school, work, fall in love and have children of their own!
You guys do a great job of it.
❤
This was so awesome. And my parents were told when I was born. That they could put me into an institution and forget about me. But here I am 61 years later , have had a good life
God Bless you my friend. I live in Canada and even though we've never met lm so proud of you
Makes my heart Happy to hear 😊 a loving, caring family is a treasure .
You are a strong person ma'am. Stay happy.
Such a lovely comment to read . Have a good life too Rebecca! Hugs and Kisses from Italy

When my 11 yr old little sister was born, we didn’t know she had DS until she was born. I had a lot of mixed emotions. I always knew of people with DS but I was never educated. My main worry was when she started school, her well being, eyes starring, EVERYTHING. I was stressed thinking how am I ever going to teach her about life but all along she was the one that taught me about life & continues. Her purity, innocence & contagious laughter washes off all my worries I could ever have. From the moment she was born & carried her, a maternal instinct was born in me to look after her (I have no kids yet). I’d give my life for her. She’s my beautiful angel that brings peace & serenity to my life. She’s my world.
Angels ❤️🙏
💝 beautiful 💝 my girl was diagnosed autistic n back then nobody really heard of that.i did everything I could for her n thought I'd b teaching her things as well,however shes schooled me n to this day shows me what's truly special in life💝 shes my living angel💝
Bless you.
Awwww such a blessing
So well said!
The way his Brother hugged him at 19:32 😭😭😍😍😍
I just cried. I have a brother with D.S. as well

The Family is so Good, I am happy for this, God bless.
I have the best older brother who is downs, and I LOVE him to death!!!! He was born in 1966, and they told my parents the he is a "mongaloid" and to leave him at the hospital because he will not live past the age of 2.....Fooled them, he is a very healthy 53 year young athlete!!! Very very smart, and talented. And he also LOVES basketball!!! He is the best person I have ever met in this world!!! Not a mean bone in his body!!! There should be more people like these special people in this world!!!
Same with my brother. He was born in 1962 & my parents were told he wouldn't live past 7. HA! He's gone 50 years past that and still, by the grace of God, is still going strong. Back then, they knew nothing or very little of what causes Downs. All I know is he was a blessing and still is.
They are the normal angels most pure people ever we are the weird ones for sure. If everyone had downs the earth would be the most beautiful place in the whole world.
That word makes my stomach turn in knots.
Jacki Pitsch 🙏🏼❤️
Praise be to God
i have also kid with down-syndrome and he also has epilepsy, now he is 6 year, he can't walk, can't talk, some times i think he can't understand anythings, but he is my lovely baby boy , i love him with all my heart, 😍😍
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I believe you love him more then anything and I truly feel he knows that no doubt about it...
@@ANI915 thank you 😍
He chosen the family in you bless
Oh he knows he might not talk I worked in a special needs school even when the children couldn't talk they showed pure love and affection back when they new they were loved and cared for my godbrother had ceryble palsy he couldn't walk talk but he could laugh and cry and new he was loved and I'm sure Ur son is the same 💜
May God bless your lovely son and you. Amen.
The way this two brothers love each other just made my day 😍😍
My daughter was born Down-Syndrome. When they came into my hospital room, right away the s-worker asked if i didn't want her. I replied, she is my daughter and she's coming home with me and her dad. Unfortunately she died after undergoing open heart surgery when she was 11 months 3 weeks old. I buried her a week before her 1st bday. They are extraordinary human beings just 1 year behind. I miss my girl.. i love this story and what george is doing for him and his family..
Oh my love, I am so sorry for your loss...you were blessed with a beautiful angel. She will always watch over you.
I'm sorry for your loss. 😔
I am so sorry to hear this but no matter what she new you loved her and still do and god bless you standing up to the case worker and taking your little angel home 😙 may she rip
I've found myself saying this alot lately: *There is wisdom in the house of Sorrow* Your loss, pain, and grief has given you the wisdom to appreciate what's _really_ important. Your experience could have driven you to madness (and I'm sure sometimes does) But, you seem to value what little time you had of being able to love her. I'm so very sorry for your loss
Hugs to you!!!
Children and adults with down syndrome are a gift from God they are the most lovingly people l have ever met
Yup
I hear people say this often, but is it really true? Are people with DS on average more loving than the general population?
@@MG-uz5mr I think so, every person i’ve met you has DS always wants a hug, or high five. they’re really just kind souls, and if you ever meet someone with DS you’ll understand right away
Actually, Downs was once known as being angel touched. I don't know why though. However, everyone I have met with the condition is so loving.
@@MG-uz5mr have you ever met a mean DS person?I have never, Theyre very nice, friendly, bubbly and always smile at you
This parents has the most beautiful kids....
My god. To have the audacity to walk into a family’s home and offer them “alternatives.” I have a child with special needs. Doctors and specialists are unsure what is causing her multiple disabilities. My daughter is only 3. Our society has become more inclusive, understanding, and loving towards special needs children and adults. I genuinely believe it is because of parents like you, that chose to love and care for their child just as any other child. You are pioneers. From the bottom of my heart, Thank You!
Try to find a special needs counselor trained in 360 care. I had two, one yr apart, different needs, and started counseling early. Both excelled, one is in the military.
@@chordsofgratitude2073 vgv
As a caregiver for people with disabilities, seeing that boy so happy was emotional for me. Bless this family.
My neighbors have a son with Down Syndrome and the first thing they told me when I met them was what a blessing and gift Daniel is. After meeting him I agree. He loves to hug and is such a sweetheart who always smiles.
I haven't seen so many kids suffering from Down Syndrome, but the few I saw are always happy, it's God's blessing.
The entire family has humongous hearts, beautiful spirits, just all very loving humans. This really made my heart smile❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I never realized that special needs kids were such a joy until my daughter had a special guy named Elijah. I now see special kids as a blessing and I want to Thank God that we had 2 1/2 years with him.
I am So Glad You look at it that Way. They Are truly A JOY.
What an amazing older brother. Those parents are doing something right!
The older son's girlfriend, if she was smart was overcome by seeing how he intuitively supported his younger brother. Most could not do that in the same situation. That means that when he is married, he will support his spouse in the same intuitive way. That's a big deal
@NONYA Business good point. Maybe no one will ever want to marry him. Or he will never want anyone.
@@PatrickPoet There was an update episode yesterday. The son proposed to his girlfriend and she accepted.

@@markdenio4537 thats awesome.
who has watched this over again because it's so touching
People with down syndrome are the best Teachers of the main mission of Humankind: Loving others in a Pure way.
The brother's girlfriend is like the actual sister to the kid. Eating from the same plate and feeding him, just wow!!
my brother was special needs, I wouldn't have changed him for the world. We got to keep him for 63 years. I know he is in heaven dancing away.
Ok, I’m not crying! Ok I’m crying ❤️. I had a cousin with Down’s names Brenda and we used to play together. She died at 18 from Pneumonia when I was about 10. She was a pure soul from heaven ❤️
I love they halted for the bird nest!
Yes, I thought no one was gonna say something about this!!
And then they literally so-not-fucking brutally murdered the trees.
And uprooted the trees perfectly from the roots, It was so satisfying to watch😍😍😍😍😍
I cried through this wonderful family video! George is a gift 🎁
He's the best!
This is a youtuber that everyone should more importantly supporting.
I want a hug from Jo Jo! Seems like the best hug ever
What a wonderful family. They so deserved this. It hits home as my younger brother has Downs Syndrome and 6th stage dementia. He was active in special Olympics for years, but our parents were in their mid 40's when he was born. I was 12 and I declared him mine. Even after I married, we didn't do anything without Alan. He was & is my #1 priority. I'm 69 & have slowed down a bit with my own medical issues, but as long as I have breath, I will be here for my forever fella. What this large group of people did for this family, and especially for JoJo, will be blessed beyond measure. God bless you all.
Ok...can't lie... I'm crying tears of joy !! Go Jo Jo go !!! You rock buddy !!
My brother is one year older and he also has down syndrome :,) they are the nicest people alive
As they get older, that never changes ❤☺️❤
That's because they don't know any better.
@@raccoonchronicles5134 no it's because you can't teach them to hate. They are humanity at its purest. They know what mean is but they just can't hate.
Kids with Downs are the bright smiles in our sad, bleak world... I've only had great interactions with them.
When JoJo started to cry,my heart was so full. He's a remarkable person with fantastic family and friends. Go JoJo!💯🙏🏀
That was so uplifting. Happiness is not about $. It's so nice to see a really tight and loving family.
Jojo is an angel given to you to protect you and relieve you of the stresses of the world. The back yard and dining area are amazing. If you've watched the whole segment you would realize that the family did this for Jojo. Whatever they may or may not have wanted they sacrificed for their child. An awesome family you are and another great renovation by George and crew.
What a beautiful family. So deserving and blessed.
Some of my friends have Down syndrome and like Jojo they are smart and friendly and Make every day a great day 🇨🇦✌️❣️🖐🇨🇦
The brothers have such a great relationship and it's so beautiful to watch 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Couldn't agree more!
God is good, Bless the people at "George to the rescue" Peace.
I cried watching the lovely mom reaction whn she open the door👏
What a beautiful family! And JoJo didn't cry when meeting the Harlem Wizards, although you could tell he was totally stoked..What absolutely touched his heart was the basketball court in his own backyard..See people?, some of the most simplest things in life can bring SO MUCH joy..I pray this show never ends, or if it does another one picks up right where it leaves off.. because there will always be a need..both for those needing the help and for those who get the joy of providing the help.❤️❤️❤️❤️
What you have wrote is beautiful especially"What a beautiful family" my first thought and "See people?, some of the most simplest things in life can bring SO MUCH joy.."❤️ It was exact my second thought as I saw JoJo reaction:)
George To The Rescue did a great job here. What a wonderful family. And that brotherly love...grown man crying here.
They stopped transforming the lawn for two weeks for the little birdies to mature enough and fly....respect!
I would have left all the bushes/trees at the beginning but I do appreciate the concern and compassion for the birds. I like the end results and reactions. It shows how important what you are doing for others really is.
I worked with kids with down syndrome. They are the most affectionate, loving souls on the planet. I cried with JoJo. God blessed this family and George to the rescue got to be part of a bigger miracle. So happy for this family, the deserved that. Thank you to everyone that helped them.
This family is beautiful you can feel the ❤jojo gives hugs like george 😊
THAT BABY IS PERFECT IN EVERY WAY !!!
HE HAS ABUNDANCE OF LOVE !
This show is so AWESOME, GOD bless George and his crew.
Your son has the most beautifull smile and such a mischievious eyes. He is quite agile for a downs. He is simply lovable and you have a great family.
Jo Jo is a gift from God. He seems to love unconditionally. He is lucky to have all you guys as a family, but you guys are the luckiest family in the world to have him as your son/brother. You have done a wonderful job raising two wonderful loving sons. Him and his brothers relationship is so special. You should be very proud of both them. I cried at his reaction to his new back yard, it was the most special surprise for him. He is the sunshine in the world.
He is a beautiful loving boy, as they said he is a GIFT!!
Jojo has the best family especially his brother! Jojo you are a blessing to everyone :)
Oh my the reaction JoJo had was heart warming and made me tear up and the way his brother hugged and his familia was so sweet and cute funny dance JoJo lol
Oh, my heart! Jojo is a gift to this world and this family is absolutely precious!
This is beautiful and moving. So happy for him. George and his team did extremely well. The girlfriend of the other brother is soo caring and takes her time to get to know him❤️❤️ So happy he feels more comfortable
Jojo is so adorable! What a great story. George, you're an angel. Thank you for doing good in this world.

Saving baby birds! OK, I swore I wasn't going to watch the whole thing - cried from beginning to end.
Am crying. The girl is a lucky one since she got a beautiful soul of a fine man. Also, I feel that the girl has a lovely soul too. God bless Jojo. God bless this family. This video has brought a river of tears in my eyes.
George, you are God's hands and feet.
God Bless you for all you do.
You not only put a smile on God's face, those who you
help and a smile on my face as well.
You warm so many hearts!
Thank you, Thank you. Thank you!

My wonderful brother in-law has down syndrome. He is 60 yrs old and has 100's of medal's from special Olympics in swimming. He is still competitive today. He is the absolute best of us. Everyone in our town knows and loves Greg Brunt.
That’s awesome
The girlfriend is so amazing. I hate she feels the need to cover her mouth when She smiles. She is very deserving of a smile makeover.
Fabulous.....I do hope once the chicks are grown and they can take out that last fir tree that they add some fencing for privacy , I really wouldn’t want the whole street watching me eat , socialise or cook in my yard.
beckyluvstoscrapnsew I thought that plus that’s an incredibly expensive piece of kit on full public display....
And then murder another tree...
DS kids are THE BEST!!! They are angels sent from Heaven to bless everyone around them
This was sweet. You do good work, and I'm sure that you make a lot of people happy.
Incredible such a sweet boy. His reaction was the best. George and your team 💕💕💕
Thanks, Dorothy! Glad you enjoyed the episode.
@@GeorgeToTheRescue of course was up watching. Great spirit you have 💕💕💕
