Alzheimer's- What they forget to tell you Revised Edition

Although more and more people are being affected by Alzheimer's disease, there is not enough information surrounding the true daily struggle of the disease. Alzheimer's disease is savage and the collateral damage it creates is catastrophic. Although parts of this story were extremely difficult to write, and worse to ensure that the moments were captured exactly as they happened, it really is a personal journey. this is a story to inspire people not to take any moment for granted. This disease does not only rob a person of their memory, it takes their dignity and independence with it. It is a story of testing one's resolve, and realizing that life is truly what you make of it. This story is dedicated to my mother. It is hard to see what she has become, I know there are still pieces of her with me, and this is what I hold on to. I wish I had the information in this book when my mother was first diagnosed with this horrible disease, but alongside my story I have added many resources that are available to others. It also shows that even though you don't think that you have the strength, you find a way and you don't give up. I hope my story inspires you, and at the very least, you can use something in this book, whether the disease affects someone you know, or for preventative care.
