One is a child. Two is the elderly people. My dad was never diagnosed with Alzheimers but he had a problem with remembering. We listened to him tell the same stories from the past several times. He is gone now and how I wish I could hear the stories form the past one more time.<BR/><BR/>We are never blessed so much as when we are loved by children and older people. We know then that we have done something right in our lifetime. May God bless us all is my prayer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30847017.post-14513442722791366172008-09-22T09:20:00.000-04:002008-09-22T09:20:00.000-04:00Bruce, This was a very nice entry on your site.

After the morning funeral service we took Mom back to have lunch. After lunch, we went into the day room that also had a piano. I had not heard my Mom play a piano for years, and didn't know that she still could as she also suffered from Alzheimer's. One of us apparently asked her to try. In moments she was playing Christmas carols from memory. Then from a Baptist hymnal that was on the piano. I noticed that within a few minutes those in wheelchairs were gathered around the piano. Others that had been rolled in bedridden were moving their feet to the music. It was a very cheerful moment in an otherwise somber day.Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00974710767294731067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30847017.post-81717580879530711642008-09-21T21:35:00.000-04:002008-09-21T21:35:00.000-04:00Wonderful afternoon...wonderful lady.It was also a...Wonderful afternoon...wonderful lady.<BR/>It was also a good thing to see Mama clalpping and <BR/>singing to the music.<BR/>kgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
