Hi Charlotte,
Fred and I had dinner with Ron after the play last weekend and he gave us both a copy of your book. Thank you! I opened it up this morning while eating breakfast and read the whole book in one sitting. It’s great! Written with insight, humor, honesty and love. I found myself completely engaged in it. I plan to give copies to several of my friends who I know will benefit from its practical advice and heartfelt stories. Thank you (and your sister) so much for writing it!

I am going to read it again!
Dear Charlotte,
How great is this book! I am going to read it again. I am going to read it again.
I loved all of the explanations of the causes of Alzheimer’s. I never had thought about other illnesses harboring Alzheimer’s disease.
Your book is easy to read. The gems about care of any Alzheimer’s patients were helpful. Getting into the Alzheimer’s patients’ world instead of making them conform to our world was great advice.
I learned a lot about your creative side in this book and loved the Palo Pinto / Lone Camp references.
Virginia’s comments on the bottom of page 17 hit home for me. Those words helped me understand my youngest brother. The comparison to the lessor known goddesses is a good theme.

Thank you for sharing your story with its insights & beauty.
Dear Charlotte,
Your book arrived yesterday, and I was so happy to receive it. I had happened on the book website way back in the summer and was deeply moved to hear your story regarding your mom and her journey, and you and your sister’s journey along side of hers.
I read a few pages of the book late last evening and quickly see why it is an exceptional offering amidst so many other “guides” for caregivers of aging parents, especially when dementia is involved.
Thank you for sharing your story with its insights and beauty.
Karen
