Do we need "that clause" in this sentence or can it be avoided?
Hi friends,
Do we need "that clause" in this sentence or can it be avoided?

Thanks in advance!

Without 'that', you are talking about seeing the changes in the person.
With 'that', you are talking about seeing that the person is changing.
