<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Brutally honest about her feelings when life dealt her husband the greatest setback one can imagine-a diagnosis of Lewy body dementia and Alzheimer's-Mary Monroe lamented, "I didn't sign up for this!" All her dreams of living her "golden years" with her husband of forty years disappeared, and a new "normal" had to be established. After living in a caregiving role for over six years, Monroe shares the lessons and tips she learned to survive-and even thrive-as a caregiver to a loved one with dementia. You'll enjoy the frank and revealing way Monroe looks at every aspect of being a caregiver, even approaching "taboo topics," rarely discussed. Her tips, tricks, and strategies will give you hope and encouragement to reflect and journal about your own journey, helping you make the best out of a situation no one would wish on their worst enemy!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Mary A.
