31 Days - The last thing that made me cry

The last thing that made me cry was this beautiful video on Upworthy.

This is Joe Fraley, singing for his mother, Judy.  Judy has Alzheimers. This video is one of the last times Joe sings for his mother at home before she is placed in a care facility. Judy is confused, but Joe connects with her through his song.

This is the final piece of conversation after the song ends.

Mom: I don't know what's happening here, but it's been so long ago. How come it's so long? I don't know where we live. I don't. I don't know anything.
Son: It's okay.
Mom: It's okay? Now how do you know where we are, honey?
Son: Well, we're right here. We're right here, right now.
Mom: It's pretty here.
Son: It's pretty here.
Mom: It's very pretty here. I love you, and you have a nice face and a pretty smile, and you're a nice person.
Son: Thank you, Mom. You, too.
