Description

This is a must-read story for anyone who even suspects that a relative or loved one may be entering this dark tunnel toward ultimate oblivion known as Alzheimer's. This book could easily be heeded as a caregiving manual in a very real sense. Not only was an Alzheimer's' victim impacted here - unfortunately the caregiving daughter and the close family were deeply affected also. For them to live through these 7 years was a nightmare - not comparable to anything or anyone else's scenario. This story covers many years in the life of an Alzheimer's victim, and her descent from a vital woman into madness and death. It is the gripping telling of a sad, and in some ways, heroic tale. It is a hard read! It is an important work and needs to be read by many, as Alzheimer's is an increasing spectre in the now-aging population of this country. Reading this book will give you an eyes-wide-open peek into the misunderstood world of the disease of Alzheimer's. You will find yourself living in the home of a caregiver, dealing with the traumas that occur during the Alzheimer's journey on a day-to-day, year-to-year trek. Theoretically, this book is a "can't-put-it-down story"!
