Alzheimer’s is making more and more victims and many say that it is one of the most serious diseases because it does not physically affect the person, but his memory.
Tod McDermott is eighty years old and has been battling this disease for some time. Once upon a time, he was a professional singer that everyone loved and appreciated for his talent. In addition to his musical talent, Tod had an extraordinary memory throughout his life, knowing the lyrics of hundreds of songs.
When the disease began to affect his memory, the old man could not recognize his son, which affected those around him. Fortunately, his son realized this and did everything he could to help him.
The young man invented a kind of therapy for his father: he also tried to help him through music, a field that Tod has always adored. The songs not only helped him to lift his mood but also slowed down the course of his illness.
To draw attention to the impact that this disease has on people, Tod’s son filmed several videos in which he sang songs with his father on the radio.
The impact was so great that internet users went viral!
