It's #Hour24 and this Californian is still awake and ready to read for a few more hours. 😳
Just finished this heart-wrenching, yet very powerful memoir about Alzheimer's. I lost my Dad to this horrible disease 4 years ago, and the author really tells it like it is thru her creative imagery and storytelling. I will be sharing this with my local Alz support group. It's that good.

VanChocStrawberry That sounds like a tough (and maybe cathartic?) read. 6y
UwannaPublishme @VanChocStrawberry Great point, it's definitely cathartic. Plus it's a sweet tribute to her mom who was an amazing teacher and also avid reader. But it's difficult because she holds no punches. And Alz, as you may know, is not pretty. 6y
Mollyanna I lost an Uncle and my Grandmother to Alz. What a horrible disease for the sufferer and those that love them. I may have to add this to my TBR... 6y

UwannaPublishme @Mollyanna So sorry to hear about your Uncle and Grandmother. My prayers are with you. It is such a devastating disease to see our loved ones go thru. I keep hearing that Still Alice is also a good book. 6y
Andrew65 Well done on the time 👍 (edited) 6y
Mollyanna Thank you. My thoughts and prayers to you as well on the loss of your father. It is definitely tough. And I worry about my mother (it was her mother) and myself for the future. 6y
