Pitbull (Mix) and Alzheimers Patient
This is a short video of my Mom who was in the advanced stages of Alzheimers, with my sisters pit mix Lido. I shot the video to show how animals can be such good therapy for people with any illness. This video was shot in Oct. 2006. I’m sad to announce that my Mother passed away on July 6, 2009. Thank you all for the kind comments, private messages, and support. I won’t forget you. Peace.

thank you very much.
It’s been over 6 months that I have been without a Mother and I can’t tell you all how hard it has been even though I’m an adult. Still very difficult for me to watch this video without tears streaming down my face but I am thankful I shot the footage. You all have been so supportive and again I don’t know what I would have done without that. Hugz to all.
that was so sweet…sorry for your loss..
very very sad…my grandpa had alzheimers
Thank you for your comments. The song does make it sad and actually very difficult for me to watch but I am glad I have this video of her. We miss my Mother very much.
Your song is sad….but i like to see your mother smile (but I am crying cause the song is too sad).., love your video though–happy song-though

I’m sad to announce that my Mother Jackie (woman in the video) passed away on July 6th, 2009 at 77 years old, after a decade plus battle with Alzheimers. I’d like to thank you all for the kind comments and supportive pm’s. It has been a long and difficult road and we miss her terribly. Thanks again to all of you. Peace.

great video! Beautiful dog and I just love your mom’s laugh!!
That was a beautiful and very touching video. Thank you for being such a great pit owner, and a great daughter. Love your mom; she’s the only one you’ll ever get. Love your pit; he loves you more than life itself.
Thank you so much.
BLESS you for sharing this wonderful video and for showing the softer loving side of this incredible breed and as a vet tech thank you for cutting down on his groceries!!
I wish you and your mother the best of everything. Will always have her in my prayers.
Posted this video almost two years ago. He has long since lost the fat. Thanks for the comment!
Sweet video but you need to put that dog on a diet!
He is, he’s just incredibly chubby for a pit.
i feel for you my grandpa also has alzheimers
Superb!! georjous dog. Best of luch to your mum. I know its a hard time
Thank you for being so good to your dog. Love him and spoil him!
What a sweet sweet video. I just love your momma and the pup, It lifts my heart, and I wish your momma well.
this video made my heart melt.
Yes he is a loveball. My sister “inherited” him from our uncle who passed away in Jan 2006. My uncle’s gf was supposed to take the dog but my sister offered because the gf had a small house and too many dogs already. Now Lido and my sister are inseparable. Fate is a funny thing. Thanks for the thoughtful comment.
Thank you for the nice comments. She’s my Mother. I can’t imagine not being there for her every day.
