A woman with dementia stunned everyone when she sat down at a piano and played beautifully. Despite her condition, the woman put on a jaw-dropping and magnificent musical performance. Watch the short but powerful clip to listen to and see how the woman battling dementia played the piano. You likely will not believe your eyes or ears!
Currently, it’s still impossible to stop, slow down or even pause the passage of time. Although many may try, no one has yet found a way to accomplish that goal. Despite our objections, time continues marching forward with every passing second, minute, hour and day. So, that means aging is just a natural process, and there is nothing you or I can do about that. We will all continue to get older, even if we do not acknowledge our birthdays.
Sadly, while aging is a process we all endure, it is often not fun or enjoyable. That’s especially true when it starts to rob us or our loved ones of abilities we once took for granted. When people reach an advanced age, they might lose their ability to walk, speak, or even have trouble recalling memories, which is always painful to see a loved one endure. That’s why a clip posted on YouTube of an older woman playing a piano will likely bring you to tears.
The woman in the video has dementia. Sadly, she says she no longer remembers being able to play the instrument. However, she sits down in front of the piano and is told to “just try.” What happens next is mind-blowing!
Right before she plays, she says, “I don’t know it.” However, when her hands touch the keys, it’s like it all comes back to her. Her hands remember exactly how to play the instrument.
Even after putting on that outstanding display, the woman still says, “I don’t really know it.” As the video’s narrator points out, this clip indicates that music is powerful, and can and does have an enormous impact on our brains.
