My husband was a singer and loved music. But he will not listen because along with his memory loss his hearing is just about gone! Thank you for that wonderful story.

So sorry Gerri. Hearing loss can really make dementia worse because information can’t even get into the brain to be saved. Be sure you approach him from the front to avoid startling him and so he can maybe read your lips. Also fewer words and more hand motions and lots of smiles. You got this🤗.

Your couple minute videos are brilliant. They give caregivers time to absorb the process in reasonable portions. Delighted I found you searching for support for my dear friend London. Many thanks for helping her.❤
