| Publisher Description: Doable respite for busy care partners, friends, family members, and others impacted by dementia (and really anyone required to befriend grief on a daily basis). The essays and poetry in this book reflect our family's decade-long experience living with Alzheimer's disease. Without sugar-coating the experience, the book surfaces what our family has gained - for example, growing closer, letting go of the need to fix everything, becoming group improvisation experts together, becoming more fully present and bad ass, and becoming our own respite center - sharing a more whole story of Alzheimer's disease than is often told. Not a How-To guide: this is a book for "Why Me?" days. |
