Dr. Randi Lebar shares her discovery of the magic and power of music in dementia. You’ll love her stories about the wild ride she took with her mother, pianist Elaine Lebar, when she went viral on TikTok in 2020 while living in a memory care unit in Buzzards Bay.
Featuring many videos of Elaine at the piano, Randi’s humorous and hopeful talk includes lessons learned along the way about finding meaning and joy in their relationship, in spite of her mother’s mental decline.
