This is very sad. But half way through the video there's an amazing,

inspiring moment.

1. amazing. Although to me he has always

been that. 95 years old. Definitely leaves me with a glass half-full view.

2. I've had that moment..

where Anderson Cooper teared up. I go with a friend’s church choir to sing carols for members in assisted living and nursing homes every Christmas season. It’s amazing how many “noncommunicative” people suddenly come back to life when they hear those familiar songs. Music works miracles, even if they’re temporary ones.

3. Could you describe it for us deafies? Thanks. BTW, Italian men always remind me of

my father and uncles.

4. They are discussing T. Bennett's Alzheimer's diagnosis and his day to

day routine with his wife. She reminds him of things he forgets and explains things to him. It's sad watching this "giant" struggle with his memory and communication. His manager/son decided to let him go on tour with the doctor's recommendation. Because it's one of those things that bring him back to his old self, even if for a moment. Halfway through the video they show him just "killing it" in rehearsals, like he used to. Then in concert where you see him come alive when singing w/ Lady Gaga.
