The house will never be the same. Your heart will never feel the same. But in spite of its bad reputation, living with Al isn't all about heartbreak. It is about change for Al refocuses the way you see yourself, your home, the people around you and the way you wake up to your day and envision your future--and some of those changes are quite liberating. Buy a copy for yourself if you are a caregiver of someone with dementia or for a friend who needs a boost of encouragement. All caregivers need encouragement WHAT AL LEFT BEHIND is a follow-up to Daphne Simpkins' touching memoir A LONG GOOD NIGHT: My Father's Journey into Alzheimer's (Eerdmans). |
