Son Shares Virtual Hospital Bed Sing Along With Father Dying From Coronavirus

As his father entered the final weeks of his life, Pennsylvania man Kenneth Keene Jr tried to keep his dad’s spirits up, with a video call sing along.

In footage posted to YouTube on May 9, Keene Jr can be seen talking to his father, who is laying in a hospital bed. Keene Snr, who has had his experiences with dementia documented by his son in a series of video blogs, was by this stage also suffering from the coronavirus.

“It’s really good to see you, I miss you,” Keene Jr can be heard telling his father, in between singing a variety of songs to him during the video call.
