What's Next for Books & Chit Chat with AlzAuthors and Aging & Amazing
Oct 03, 2024 1:01 am
Hello ,
Please join us for our next book club discussion on Tuesday, October 29th at 7pm via Zoom. We're discussing "Walking With Fay: My Mother's Uncharted Path Into Dementia," by Carolyn Birrell. Her book starts, "In 2012, I flew down to Georgia to kidnap my mother.” From there we are taken on a rollercoaster of a journey with Carolyn, the unprepared caregiver, learning on the job, making mistakes, owning up to them, and doing the best she could in an impossible situation.
Readers say:
"This book gives you a day to day view of what to expect and how to understand the progression ahead of you."
"Carolyn provides a very flowing story and includes her honest feelings, which sometimes are not very positive, and gives caregivers the knowledge that these feelings are natural and felt by many, many others."
"Walking With Fay is a brutally honest, often uncomfortable book to read. But most importantly, it is a book that I will recommend to any friend (or acquaintance) who shares with me that they are dealing with a loved one with dementia."
Remember: it’s not necessary to read the books to attend the discussion. All are welcome. Please invite your family and friends for a vigorous discussion.
