I thought this video was so sweet as my Dad is in assisted living and I could relate to what life is like for the elderly that can no longer live alone. So many with dementia just sit and stare. I did wonder about sanitation issues.

Yes, I wondered about sanitation issues, too. However, they do make chicken diapers! Older folks who grew up on farms might connect readily to chickens. Some with Alzheimer’s and dementia do retain earlier memories.

LOVE THIS!! Besides the diaper possibly I noticed most folks holding the girls on their laps had a pee pad for them.
