My dad was an old gear head with dementia also. As the dementia got worse he kinda disappeared. His body was there, but he was just missing. However, with the top down, at speed, he would come back for a little while. I imagined myself explaining it to the cop. 'Well, its for health reasons'
You can see something similar in Tony Bennet's final concert. Back stage, he was absent, but as soon as he was on the stage and the lights came up, he was right there. He remembered the songs, where he was, and peoples names. As once as the lights went down - gone again. |

I can chat "to" him a bit, but there's really not much there in response. It's tough, but I try to do what I can to "bring him back". The Porsche ride seemed to get him there for a little bit.
