The people in this video are afflicted with Alzheimers, which will affect 1 in 8 people by age 65. I hope and pray that the research can continue on this disease and others to help, but in the meantime there is dignity in living with faith in those final chapters of life.

Thanks for this. It has changed my attitude about my getting older. I have always said that I would grow old gracefully, but I understand now more what that means. I am not expressing this very well, but understand that I was inspired by this message.

And on another note, it reminded me of my father and mother during her last few years on this earth.

Jesus and God do not turn their backs on the sick and afflicted and neither should we. Even if they can't remember us, we should remember, love and take care of them.

The mind is so vast, what we know what we don't know about it's workings; but even greater is what our spirit can obtain despite physical illness. My husband lost access to memories over a yr ago and life is different now for both of us. We have been married 35 years and he cannot pull the memory of our beginnings. However from time to time, for some bizarre purpose, he gets access to memories even though they are short lived. Life is a challenge some days, but the gospel gets us through!

This generation of elderly really is the greatest generation. Living the last part of their life the way they always have...with dignity.

Who they are/were has really defined a lot of the best parts of who we are now.

Thank you Grandpa and Grandma!!

The timing of this video is perfect. I had to put my sister in a care center recently, and it was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I have noticed a difference between the patients who have faith and and those who do not.  Faith gives us strength in these times even as the care giver.

We are ment learn on earth is a selfless love one for another. Any one can love when health are good. The true self love rises to the top like cream to care for those who cant care for themselves.

Mosiah 2: 17

17 And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God.

Matthew 25:40 Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me

We all become old but love can never change..
