Description:
This book is a tribute to all caregivers, whose dedication often goes unrecognized. It offers comfort and understanding to anyone who has cared for someone with dementia, or anyone who has witnessed the slow unraveling of memory. It should be obligatory reading for all clinicians working with patients with dementia and their families as a loud and needed reminder of the moving humanity in the privilege of our responsibility.
It is a gift to be able to share in this journey through these poems, and I hope readers find the same solace and insight I have.
