Opis

Marie Marley is the author of Come Back Early Today: A Memoir of Love, Alzheimer's and Joy. This book tells the powerful 30-year love story of a young American woman and a delightfully colorful, wickedly eccentric Romanian gentleman and scholar, interspersed with advice and inspiration for Alzheimer's caregivers everywhere. In addition to being a compelling love story, this award-winning memoir shows how one woman solved several specific problems that typically arise when caring for a person with dementia. Alzheimer's caregivers who have read the book say it helped them very much. Former caregivers say they wish they'd read it when they were caregivers. Come Back Early Today will make you laugh; it will make you cry. If you're caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's it will give you inspiration and advice. But mostly it will give you hope and it will help you see that there can be happiness - even joy - amid the darkness of dementia. The book was a finalist in the Santa Fe Writer's Project Literary Awards, Eric Hoffer First Horizon Awards, Readers Choice competition, Editors and Writers International Awards, and Indie Excellence Awards. The Foreword was written by Gregg Warshaw, MD, Past President of the American Geriatrics Society. Go to www.ComeBackEarlyToday.com to read the first two chapters for free.
