“A touching video was filmed this month of an elderly man in Houston, Texas, dancing with his wife on her 80th birthday, even though she feared he had forgotten how to.

In the recording, his tearful family can be seen watching the couple, who have been married for 50 years, waltz.
At first, a family member can be seen helping the man up from a chair.”

Warning the video may cause a few tears.
 
I've read that hymn tunes are often the last memory that dementia patients express.

Wonderful to see this!
