Sparky is my special teddy bear who Dad creatively and magically gave life to when I was a child. Sparky was always our special father-daughter connection! This video demonstrates the POWER of music!!! When verbal skills become illusive with the mental impairment of Alzheimer's, it takes your breath away when that person still can muster up words to a song...

  • The love is pooring right out of you in this video and your father is responding to that love. That is one thing that never leaves an individual with Alzheimer's, their feelings. He is very happy in your presence and more present too. You are showing everyone how to get to communicate effectively.

  • I so regret not taking videos like these, I totally got lost in the sickness and never even thought of it even though I always had a cellphone or could have brought my camera. I hear Old Blue Eyes in the background my Dad's favorite. You are so selfless, but we do what we have to, it's amazing how much your Dad reminds me of mine in his gestures. He too ate napkins LOL,I hope you are finding yourself smiling when thinking of Dad with less tears everyday.

  • You are an amazing daughter!
