1. A video of a guy in Louisiana who’s in his 90s is making the rounds. You may have also seen a segment CBS News did on him last year. He has dementia, and his memory resets every 15 minutes. But he’s the most popular guy on his block.
\nHis house is across from a daycare, and he loves kids. So each day, he gets to meet all of them again, like it’s the very first time. And it’s been happening like this for years.
\nThe kids love him and know he’s got memory issues, so they’re very patient. His daughter says he was lonely and suffering for a long time. But then the kids came into his life. So now he’s happy, even if he doesn’t always know why.<\/p>\n
