Synopsis

"Â...an enthralling, ambitious and much-needed effort...most definitely the sort of work on Alzheimer's that needs to get public notice."

—Karla Morales, People's Medical Society

Nine women map the journey of a parent's journey through Alzheimer's disease, describing the evolution of their own emotional responses to the disease and the changes it effects in the patient and in her relationship with family members.

The book invites the reader to take a first step in healing from Alzheimer's ripple effect by beginning to journal about the experience. Kathleen Adams, author of four books on journaling, provides guidance in her introduction. "Daughters of Alzheimer's" promises to be a useful tool for families dealing with Alzheimer's.
