An 80-year-old man brought breakfast and flowers to his wife who was in a nursing home.
Someone who has spotted him doing this each morning asked him about his wife and why she was staying at the facility. The man replied that she suffered from Alzheimer’s.
“Would your Wife be worried if one day you didn’t come and bring her breakfast?” the curious person asked the elderly man. The man then replied, “She doesn’t remember. She doesn’t even know who I am, she hasn’t recognized me for five years.”
Surprised, the person asked yet another question, “So why do you bring your wife breakfast every morning, even though she doesn’t even recognize you?” With a smile on his face, the devoted husband answered, “She doesn’t know who I am, but I know who she is.”
