So my gram had dementia/Alzheimer's so I'm definitely feeling you but... You're killin' it on them keys, and the nails is on point! Dang!

I would like her to come play piano for me. Must bring the piano.

It's an awful day for rain.

I love it, but why are you playing it so fast? Just because they’re 16ths doesn’t mean they’re to be played quickly.
KissMyAshhole
is this prelude in C? it sounds like it. i learned to play it in high school and loved it. so beautiful. but this version is hella fast lol
lovesmallows
I had a resident, she didn’t know her name or who her kids were but she could play the piano without sheet music all day long.

I love this, and I think now-a-days people lack skills and talent. If you have passions that you can share and light up a seniors life, then
You are on the right path

Tony Bennet has Alzheimer’s, and his last televised concert with Lady Gaga had a behind-the-scenes intro. He recognized few people around
him. But it also showed him remembering his music, and also who Lady Gaga was when she stepped on stage to perform with him.

This stuff always gets me. It's a privilege to grow old.

I think deep down part of the reason why I have such an unhealthy lifestyle is that I don't want to live long enough for that to happen

My dad had Sundowners - ok during the day but bad at night. Was very hard for my mom the last year with him.

I think we all needed this today, @OP. So thank you very much.

My grandpa developed dementia after I moved from Canada to Boston 2 years ago. He forgets people daily but always remembers me when I call.

I used to play the piano for my Nonna and read to her when she was recovering from chemo.

2 kinds of people 1) People who are absolute dicks to Alzheimer’s patients because they think “they won’t remember” and 2) Folks like this.

gosh this hit me right in the feels. from her performance to his priceless reaction to the background... wholesome bliss post!

Ditto. This made me tear up. Beautiful. Thank you OP

Music processing involves parts of the brain not involved in other day-to-day activities; I recommend reading Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks.

As a piano teacher, this is so beautiful to me. Also as a piano teacher, I am FURIOUS at those nails lol
Sealkin
Why? She can still play. Does it supposedly damage the piano?
AluminiumFalcon
Time is precious? This mf is 93! He's had a good run. I can't imagine having to deal with 93 years of this shit.
Baltzdelirium
If i have grandkids and such at that age... I'd probably to try to live a little longer for them
gnomedeplume
the granddaughter has not had 90 years to appreciate the company of her grandfather wtf is the point of this comment
InsertYourOpinionHere
She hasn't known him for 93 years, and their remaining time together is precious and short for her. Learn to emphasize with a fellow human.
saldrSleepTaker
FUCK YOU. Alzheimer's has destroyed so many lives and torn down many people for losing their loved ones. Be ashamed you decided to comment.
And what?You think he's lives 93 years with Alzheimer's disease? Or are you saying you wouldn't want to put up with an amazing granddaughter

Hahaha I'll be taking this too..

This music video was so good! Also the track was a banger.
TheDreadPirateMontoya
Squints from The Sandlot was a brilliant choice.
AukyOH
My teacher would beat me with a stick if I tried to play with nails like that but it GIVES ME HOPE ONE DAY
No, but according to my teacher it "prevents your hands from being in the correct playing position" and "causes unnecessary noise"

Bach’s prelude in C major for those wondering. To me friend @grellbert for giving me this information last time it was posted

Is it played a bit fast?
It’s gotta be ALOT faster cause the few I found on Apple Music were slower and didn’t quite sound the same
dexlamrg
She is playing it too fast, yes. But the grandpa likes it so, it is still pretty.
True
I asked cause I loved how she did it. Not to take away from it but that’s just my style
Biocide669
I upvotes for the awareness, my dad always yelled at me the deeper his dementia got.
BermondseyRising
My step dad has become really nasty. It's so hard to stay kind and patient sometimes as I know it's the disease but fuck. What an asshole.
Deltablue
Same here - my dad developed early dementia from a rodeo accident when he was young- he has either yelled or apologized for 20 years
JakalSwitch
My mean ol grandma actually got *nicer*. My dad was the only kid to get a real relationship with his mother because she forgot she was mean!
IAmRelevantToThis
My mum is only 65 with it. She is getting calmer and calmer every year and now is more relaxed than she has ever been
spinbutton3
I'm sorry that happened to you. It hit my FIL like that too. He was so scared and angry. No real peace. Alzheimer's sucks
Yeah, it really sucked though moments when he remembered what had happened. When I saw him remember, was what hurt the most.
Ugh. It is so painful. When we'd get home after a visit my husband and I would put our arms around each other and sob outloud
namAehT
It's the part most people don't talk about. Dementia twists the mind in weird ways, some people become super sexual (borderline rapey) 1/
some become aggressive, some just become a puddle and stop talking, others have moments of perfect clarity, and some are all of the above 2/
If I ever develop it, I'm offing myself. I do not want to put those around me through that hell. 3/3
TsubakiTragic
feel ya, I looked after my old mom and she came to 'not like' me more and more as time passed.
Krobbt
Fuck that's sad. I was too young when my grandpoo got dementia so I can't remember what it's like. I'm not ready for my mom to get old.
howwouldyoudescribeyourself
Same! In 10 yrs my parents will be in their 70s. I find the thought terrifying. I just had my first kid, pregnant with Nr 2. I'm not ready!
It's not a given that all folks suffer dementia, some is just normal memories fading; it tends to come on gradually. Just be a good kid :)
