Theirs had been a love story, a story of friendship, courtship and marriage, beginning when she was seventeen and he was a dashing Navy officer. It was a fairytale that never ceased-even Alzheimer's couldn't come between them. Phyllis Brown relives this one-of-a-kind love she shared with her husband, Bert, in HELP ME I'm Slipping. According to the Alzheimer's Association, there are many signs of the disease. The author noticed some of these signs in her husband, but she completely ignored them at first. A highly successful businessman, a gentle yet hardworking person who never stopped until he accomplished his goals, Bert was adept at hiding his memory loss. But as soon as it was confirmed that he had Alzheimer's disease, his wife went into action. Phyllis may not have been well-equipped with medical information and guidelines, but she was determined to give all her love and support to make the last years of Bert's life as happy as they could possibly be. HELP ME I'm Slipping follows the author's difficult yet rewarding experience as she helps her husband through the uncharted waters of Alzheimer's. From her journey, she shares lessons that she learned with her readers. In each day, she found something they could enjoy together: moments of love, and even fun and laughter. From strategies for helping her husband maintain his dignity to tips on activities that can be enjoyed daily, this book provides a truly inspiring testament to a love that endures.

Joe and Wanda found each other in midlife. Deeply in love, they'd just bought their new home when Joe's diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer's changed everything. "Until death do us part" took on an immediate, deeply personal meaning.

"White Knight "recounts the couple's four-year journey through Alzheimer's, a journey that ended with Joe's death. Initially Wanda, like many caregivers, mourned for the husband she used to have, teetering between despair and panic while she adapted to the couple's new reality.

Then something wonderful happened. Wanda came to a realization that helped her and Joe cope with the daily struggle of living with Alzheimer's. Wanda discovered living in the moment helped her enjoy and cherish the limited time she had left with the man she loved. By dedicating herself to filling Joe's remaining days with as much laughter and love as possible, Wanda found strength and purpose in the midst of sorrow and despair.

Written with heartfelt honesty and love, "White Knight" reveals how living in the moment helps keep caregivers and Alzheimer's patients calm, improving quality of life and reducing stress for all concerned. Wanda's message, simple but powerful, will change how you view Alzheimer's.

Most families have "skeletons" in the closet. For my wife's family, there was a Monster, a type of dementia that robs loving, intelligent individuals of everything-their dignity, their personality, their memory, their finances, and their minds. The "skeletons" are the remains of loved ones after the Monster has finished with them. The family members who are not devoured by this beast are, even so, crippled and maimed by its effects on their loved ones. Little did I know when Evelyn and I married in 1970 that this "Jabberwock" would come a'calling on us. My wife at age 60 is now vastly gone, with no memory of her children, or me, or our life together. To our horror, one of our children has tested positive for the autosomal dominant (inherited) gene that is the pathway for the dementia Monster's entrance. We pray for a cure. Dementia: The Monster Within is not an extensive explanation of dementia, although we show some of the science involved to help give understanding. It is first and foremost the story of our family, along with the stories of a few others who have met the Monster. Our experiences may be helpful in recognizing the initial assault. This book also provides a framework of essential steps necessary to prepare both caregiver and loved one for their futures. Most importantly, if you have been affected by this Monster, you should understand that you are not alone in your struggle. There is an enormous responsibility in giving balance when sharing hope of curing these diseases. It would be unconscionable to offer false hope. Yet, there is every reason to have hope. As we write, clinical trials are being conducted for treatments, but each individual needs to be realistic-not every disease will be "cured" before causing harm to some of our loved ones. Tens of thousands of scientists in hundreds of research facilities around the world are making discoveries about dementia almost daily. Some of these discoveries will lead to treatments, and some will lead to cures of some of the dementias. This enormous investment in research will pay off with dynamic discoveries. We cannot give up hope that the future holds a way to ... SLAY THE MONSTER
