Music has a wonderful effect on alzheimer's patients. When Henry hears 'his' music, part of his identity came back and he became the old fun-loving man that he once was. The organization Music and Memories helps to put together individual music for alzheimer's patients.
It's fantastic that such a thing exists, and it is incredibly touching to see the old Henry reappear. Share this beautiful story with everyone that you know.
