Man sings to wife of 66 years from hospital bed

http://www.today.com/news/you-are-my-sunshine-man-sings-wife-66-years-hospital-6C10307075

I decided to post this to the 'Good News' group since the fellow did recover. But at the time, it was looking pretty scary, which makes the video that much more touching.

This is happening to my father as we speak. But in the last few days he's beaten it back and will make a full recovery, it seems.
