What is he taking a break from TikTok?

There was a video posted on 30th January 2021 where Ryan explains to the fans that grandpa has lost his voice.

He explains that although Ronald has lost his voice for six days, although he is doing fine. Grandpa also had a cough but it has mostly subsided. They were all scared that it is a COVID-19 infection but he didn’t have a fever and there was no loss of taste either.

There was another update where Ryan says that it could be a fungal infection and that Grandpa still needs to take it easy for a couple more days until he can talk properly.

But in the last TikTok video, Ryan broke down while giving an update that his grandpa has been hospitalized and is not doing too good. There is no mention of how long this break could be which means that the grandpa’s condition must have gotten worse.

Update

Ryan Adams just posted on Grandpa Lou’s YouTube and TikTok to announce that he has passed away. The video was posted today (25th March 2021) and the years he lived were written in the title – from 1941 to 2021.

Grandpa passed away on 24th March 2021. The cause of death has not been revealed but he has been ill for a while because of the cough so the assumption is that he did not recover from that.
