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.
