📋 How Virtual and Augmented Reality Can Help Caregivers (AARP Article)

I'd sign him out of his assisted living facility, and we'd drive past farmland, saltbox homes and cranberry bogs outside Boston. Conversation was limited, but then I'd slip in a Frank Sinatra CD and watch his entire being change as the music entered his brain. A smile moved across his face, his shoulders relaxed, and with both feet tapping, he seemed transported to a 1950's high school dance in Ridgewood, New Jersey.
