Emotional Moment When Deaf Mother With Dementia Recognizes Her Daughter

A heart wrenching video of a mother with dementia remembering her daughter was captured on film and also captured the hearts of almost 9 million viewers online.

The clip shows the elderly lady and her daughter in the car, MJ’s mother is deaf and suffers from dementia. They begin to talk to each other about their lives using American sign language, and the lady has no idea MJ is her relative.

The mom then goes on to ask her about her family and she tells her that both her parents are deaf and taught her sign language.  While talking to her a light shines and the lady remembers that MJ is her daughter and that she has another child too.

Keep a box of tissues handy because you are sure going to need it especially when MJ signs ‘You’re my mama!’

Verse of the Day

“[The Way, the Truth, and the Life] “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.”

John 14:1-3
