My mother (b. 1923) died some years ago from dementia, and when I visited her, no matter how removed from reality she was, no matter who she thought I was or what I was doing there, singing this song with her and eventually just to her brightened her day like nothing else could. Thanks.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
