Old Man Whose Memory Resets Every 15 Minutes Greets Kids Every Day After School (popcrush.com)

 

Our faith in humanity has been restored!

An older gentleman named Gene, who has dementia, sits outside his home nearly every day and waits for the school bus to drop off the neighborhood kids so he can say hello to them.

A woman shared a clip of Gene via TikTok, explaining that every day Gene "makes his way outside, not even knowing why," but that something "every day tells him to go outside and wait."

She also shared that "Mr. Gene's memory resets" about every 15 minutes, but he somehow drawn to go sit in his chair in his front yard at a certain time each day as the kids get home from school.

The woman, Megan Nunez, noted the heartwarming moment has been "going on for two years."

Viewers who watched the video were moved by the sweet story.
