A chronicle of the profound, life-changing, and laugh-out-loud funny moments in the journey of an Alzheimer’s caregiver
In this unsentimental memoir of watching her mother fade away, Kate Whouley brings us right into the laugh-or-you’ll-cry experiences of meeting the challenge of Alzheimer’s. In her mother, we meet a strong-minded, accidental feminist with a weakness for unreliable men. And we meet a daughter who learned early to fend for herself. We encounter their shared passions: books, words, and music. As her mother falls into forgetting, Whouley remembers for her. And when the books are forgotten, and the words begin to fade, it is the music that matters most. Holding hands after a concert, with a shared joke between them, their relationship is healed—even in the face of a dreaded and deadly diagnosis.
