Passengers Unite in Song to Calm Disruptive Elderly Traveler

TL;DR
Passengers on a plane were startled when an elderly man with Alzheimer's became frightened and belligerent, pacing the aisle and asking to get off. Assuming he was just a belligerent passenger, others filmed his actions. However, when his wife emerged from the restroom, she explained his condition and began singing their wedding song, "You Are My Sunshine." The rest of the passengers joined in, highlighting the importance of patience, empathy, and the therapeutic power of music for those with Alzheimer's.
