Even with dementia, the intellegence is oozing out of him. What an amazing man.
-
Even with dementia, he still communicates better than I do. He’s very articulate.
-
The emotional intelligence of these two is amazing.
-
The daughter is brilliant, and has an admirable control over her emotions.
-
Logic and empathy remain. That must help him and his loved ones a lot, despite the circumstances.
-
Even with a disease destroying his mind, he is still SO logical, calculating, and intelligent to be able to work out the current situation. What an absolutely incredible mind and heart he has.

My mum died last year from end stage dementia . All her memories were gone. I reminded her every day that she was my mother and I was her son and that I loved her very much. At the time of her death I held her hand and said I love you for the last time. She could no longer speak but she looked at me and smiled as she squeezed my hand then left this world. I believe in that moment for however brief a time she remembered me and the love she had for me.
-
The maturity empathy patience and understanding from the daughter is next level incredible.
-
“does that hurt?” he’s trying so hard. they all are. god bless them
-
Man this hurts to see. You can see so much compassion behind his confusion.
-
she’s so strong bc i’d be sobbing
-
He was trying not to hurt her feelings. Such a sweet Dad. You are blessed to have him.😊
-
How very sensitive of him, with dementia, to NOT want to hurt her feelings or upset her. It speaks beautifully as to who he is.. in his core. ❤
-
He has lost his memory, but not his character. He was a kind person, after loosing his memory he still is a kind person. And he successfully nurtured a daughter with such a kind heart too.
-
"In my heart we are"... He really meant it... Moving beyond words...
-
the fact he still knows that he loves her and tries not to hurt her feelings and he's still intelligent and logical about it despite the little information he has with his lost memory is honestly really cool
-
This man is reaping the benefits of raising a championship daughter. Much respect 🙏🏼🙏🏼🌹🌹
-
I would have broken down. But she handled that so well to keep composure in order not to freak her dad out. What a beautiful lady 💗💗xx

My father died suffering Alzheimer. During his lasts months, he couldn´t remember I was his son, but he frequently said to me: "my good friend, I know you are a good friend"... It was damn hard for me to be forgotten, yet still loved.
