DESCRIPTION:
From the AuthorAs you may know, for the last 20 years I have written romance novels, which I love. But Alzheimer's has taken so many family members, including my mother, I had to write this book, in their memory.
Alzheimer's disease had already ravaged three generations of her family—her grandmother, mother, and brother. Manees focuses on the process of Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. "Mom, I think you may have Alzheimer's." These words were life changing for award winning novelist Raynetta Manees. Now it was her turn to face the harrowing prospect of dementia for her own future. This critical phase of the deadliest form of dementia is often inadequately addressed amid data on dementia warning signs and caregiver guidelines. She shares her apprehensive journey of Alzheimer's disease diagnosis in this, her first non-fiction book. The book is a memoire, but additionally
"You Too Can Overcome a Difficult Situation" according to Ms. Ruby. Very good read for anyone going through the trauma of Alzheimer's or caring for someone with it. Ms. Manees tells how with faith, family, positive karma and strength a person can overcome adversity or make the best of a difficult situation.
