My dad has advance stage dementia. He can’t carry on a conversation with you for longer than 5 seconds. He no longer knows my wife. He no longer knows his grandchildren. He no longer really remembers anything about his life…
But you know what?
He is still… Him.
I catch glimpses of who he is.
There are tiny cracks into his soul that show up like magic every once and a while.
But I totally had forgotten about this treasure of a recording I had.
When I started noticing his memory problem…
I called him and recorded his story.
This conversation is 4 years old…
And it’s mind blowing how he could never have this conversation now.
But I’m so glad I had it with him then.
So please enjoy this conversation that may be the most inspiring conversation you have heard in a long time…
From my dad, who has dementia…
But dementia doesn’t have him…
