1950s Diner Helps Alzheimer’s
VIDEO - INSIDE EDITION: A Californian "time capsule" kindles sparks of joy in Alzheimer's, as people see a world they remember. A '50s-themed diner has a jukebox playing rock 'n' roll classics and a 1959 Ford Thunderbird's on display. Phone booths with rotary dials, vinyl record players and vintage clothing round things out. See Jackie and her daughter Kimberly playing music to jog mom’s memory and make new moments possible.
