In a world where change is the only constant, we all are guilty of holding on to precious memories from the past. Those special moments that make us smile even on a bad day. Now, imagine how difficult life is for Alzheimer’s patients who can’t hold on to their magical moments forever. It’s certainly painful but it’s the little things in life that add up to become everything.
Like, recently a video of an elderly man with Alzheimer’s trying to sing along with his granddaughter made our day. The duo were singing the hit song ‘Somewhere over the rainbow’ from the 1939 film ‘The Wizard of Oz’, reports Indian Express. While Autumn sang the entire song in a melodious voice, her grandfather joined in occasionally.
Have a look at the video shared by the Alzheimer’s Society on their Facebook page:
