That was amazing. She was so sweet and patient and when he recognized her, I lost it. ________________________ "Don't mistake activity for achievement." John Wooden, "Wooden on Leadership" | |||

My mom has dementia. That was beautiful. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation." Alfred Hornik, Sunday, December 2, 1945 to his family, on his continuing duty to others for surviving WW II. | |||

I was skeptical as in thinking it was possibly staged but that was a genuine reaction on his part in recognizing her. My dad had Alzheimer’s. We would take my parents to visit us for the day then bring them home. He had a habit of finding a way out of the house and wandering away to go feed his horses. Well, one day, my wife took my mom shopping at Costco or Walmart and left me to look after my dad. When they came back, I was asleep laying on the sofa while my dad was sitting in the chair quietly looking at me asleep. He didn’t know who I was but he instinctively was looking over me. He was in an Alzheimer’s unit for a long time, several years, maybe close to ten. He was bedridden unable to walk or talk. One Friday, my wife and I visited him. My wife, for some reason, wanted to reassure him that his son, me, was doing okay and his wife was doing okay and I was taking care of things for her. He smiled. That Sunday he died. My wife and I said he was standing his watch as the man of the family and wasn’t letting go until he was assured his family was okay and someone relieved him of his duty. Thanks for letting me remember my dad. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

That was cool but hard to watch. My father passed 2 years ago from dementia. | |||

Thanks for helping me remember my dad and being able to spend some quality time with him his last few years. It wasn't easy, but times similar to this one sure made it worth while. | |||

As sweet as it is…it looks staged to me. The bride and her MOH seem too campy, the 'you-are-there' style filming, and the father prominently in the frame is too much. Also, the father instantly trying to ask the bride who she was seemed off. The video not showing anything wedding related and not panning around…that, too seemed off. Yes, I’m an ass-hat, but real or not, it was very sweet. Retired Texas Lawman | |||

It seems that that is in fact the case.. And the consensus on Reddit. According to the video credits, it was "produced" by Network Media and Olivia. | |||
