Subject: RE: did a show for Alzheimer's patients
shoot, wrong button.. wasn't finished.....

as I was saying.. they appreciate it, AND SO DO THEIR FAMILIES!!! More than you will ever know or imagine until you are there. I have a stack of cards from families expressing their thanks for me 'doing my job'. It meant so much more for them do see their parent/spouse enjoying themselves, singing, communicating, participating, smiling..... It brings back the person they once were and makes it easier for the families as well.....

I could go on..... and on......

ps. maybe one day I'll go back to it...... a great job for learning songs..... especially pre 1950....
