Dad With Alzheimer's Finds Out Daughter Is Pregnant

A dad with Alzheimer’s emotionally reacts to the surprise his daughter is pregnant after a three-year infertility battle before later discovering he went viral on social media. Olivia and Nick Salza from Trumbull, Connecticut, had tried for a baby for years but discovered Olivia developed polycystic ovarian syndrome causing difficulties becoming pregnant. After hearing this, she went for an ultrasound where her doctor scheduled her for surgery in hopes it would increase her chances. On February 3 2021, Olivia went to the hospital to undergo her surgery but after an hour of waiting her operation was canceled - instead, Olivia was told that she was 8-weeks pregnant. That same day, Olivia’s dad Joe was admitted to the very same hospital. Joe Cichon was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer’s in March 2014 and had been taken to hospital due to his Alzheimer’s taking a rapid decline. Once she was released from the surgical suite, she spent a few minutes with her Nick explaining what happened, and they agreed to find her dad in the hospital to tell him the good news. When she walked into her dad’s room, she asks him if he could keep a secret which he agreed to, and Olivia then says: “I’m pregnant!” As soon as Joe heard the news, he couldn’t contain his happiness. After posting the video online where it quickly went viral with millions of views, Olivia showed Joe the reaction and he was completely blown away.
