Synopsis
This story is about a promise I made to my mother to take care of her through her Alzheimer’s disease nightmare. >The book includes my mother’s own thoughts from her journal about her ordeals with the various stages of this debilitating and dehumanizing condition. Her outlook on life was remarkable, and although her mind began to wander, she never lost sight of who she was, her sense of humor, or her family. >
This is the story of someone whose courage went beyond what most people could endure, and whose never-dying zest for life kept her alive. >
I hope our story will help others in coping with this difficult and demanding affliction.
