Husband With Alzheimer's Dances With Wife Again

This husband with Alzheimer’s is sharing a special dance with his wife on her 80th birthday.

Alzheimer's is a truly devastating disease for both the person and their family members. This disease robs people of their precious memories.

Our memories are what make up who we truly are and it's devastating to have those slip away. It's even harder to watch a loved one battle this disease. You see someone that you once knew so well lose their personality and spark.

Leo Balderaz was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease one year ago. Since then, he has lost many of his personal traits, including his love for dance.

It’s been difficult for his family to watch his beloved man slip away. But sometimes, they are blessed enough to see the real Leo shine through again.

Today is his wife's 80th birthday and the family wanted to make it extra special. So, they decided to surprise her by putting on the couple's favorite song and helping Leo to his feet.

With support from a family member, these two were able to share a special dance together and it's absolutely heartwarming to witness. Just watch as they sway along to the music as a world of emotions start to flow.

Near the end, you can even see Leo start to tear up. Birthdays can be especially difficult if you are without a loved one, so I know that Leo’s wife was grateful for this priceless gift.

What an incredible moment all caught on camera to cherish for a lifetime.
