Wife surprises dementia-stricken husband by moving into his care home

This is the moving moment a devoted wife surprises dementia-stricken husband by moving into his care home after a month apart because she 'can't live without him'.

Heart-warming footage shows pensioner Kenneth Meredith, 96, walking through the door with his zimmer frame, before breaking down in tears as he sees his wife Betty Meredith, 91, sitting down in front of him.

Seconds later he rushes over to his wife of 71-years, who is seen sitting at a table for a make-shift date night, decorated with heart shaped balloons and roses.

With The Platters' 1954 hit 'Only You', playing in the background, the couple share a long hug, after spending five weeks apart.
