Love has no age and doesn’t stop with time. This story shows how powerful love can be in today’s world.While his wife is in the hospital with dementia, 90-year-old Sam Jones has come to care for Nellie, his nearly 90-year-old companion, along with his son Jamie.
After 70 years of marriage, Sam has no intention of letting Nellie’s dementia alienate him from his life partner. As they stand by her side, his son shoots a touching video of Sam lovingly and devotedly caring for his wife.
It’s a simple but intimate and beautiful gesture of a 90-year-old man brushing his wife’s hair in a hospital bed.Every day, staying as long as possible at her bedside, he runs a comb through her hair and says:“You’ve combed my hair before, but I’ve never done it for you before, Nellie. This is a first, you know?”
What a touching image! Proof that love really can be strong even at age 90.
