    Something for us:

    John says,

    “My mom has been suffering from rapid-onset dementia, and has reached the point that she can’t form a sentence that anybody but her can understand.

    Tonight, I saw her for the first time in several months, and in the car on the way back home after dinner, I turned on the radio. Within seconds, she said, “Oh – Scheherazade! I’ve played this piece.” And she started humming along. It was Scheherazade, and she has played it – decades ago. The only other complete and understandable sentence she said tonight, when I was leaving, was “I love you.”

    Music is an incredible thing. It doesn’t pay well, and maybe your parents said it’s a terrible career choice, but the fact is that it reaches people on a level that nothing else can. If you’re ever questioning “does practicing all of these hours so I can play this instrument – does it matter?” The answer is yes.”
