My grandpa has played ukulele at our family gatherings ever since I could remember. So when I found out that he was going to be in the hospital for a while and he's been having a lot of trouble (he had a heart attack, quintuple bypass surgery, and then a stroke when he was recovering), I knew that playing a few of his favorite ukulele songs ("Ain't She Sweet", "Red Red Robin", and "Five Foot Two") would make him feel better.

Here's my video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-hUzRI2R5U

My aunt brought her laptop with her when she went to stay with him the other day so she could play the video for him, and she said that when he was watching it, he remembered all of the words and sang along with me with a big smile on his face. Part of me had hoped that when he couldn't remember the days of the week or the alphabet, he would somehow still remember those songs, and he did. They never really leave you, I guess. :)

Anyway. I thought you guys might like it. Enjoy!
 
Wonderful story and video! I hope your grandfather has a speedy recovery.
