Description
Alzheimer’s is a merciless thief, but it can’t steal love.
Dementia is a terrifying disease, snatching away memory and independence from those close to our hearts. Early-onset Alzheimer’s takes even more, stealing whole chapters of people’s lives. But love and hope do not have to fall victim to the disease.
In Love Remembers, Kathe Ambrose Goodwin shares how her family has coped with her husband Steve’s battle with early-onset Alzheimer’s, from the first signs something was wrong to living with the final stages of the disease with dignity, peace, and even joy. Kathe lays bare the pain and frustration of their journey and how her family’s love and faith shine through, giving meaning and hope to even the darkest days.
Advance Praise
“Love Remembers is a beautiful read. It highlights important issues encountered on an incredibly difficult journey and how even the most brilliant individuals can be impacted by Alzheimer’s. It’s a story so many people will relate to.”
-Shelly Young, MS, program manager, Alzheimer’s Association, North Central Texas Chapter
“With unwavering honesty, Kathe tells the story of countless moments when faith, love, family, and community transformed chaos into order, darkness into light, and fear into peace. Love Remembers is an invaluable source of emotional support and spiritual comfort for those caring for their loved one through the devastating experience of Alzheimer’s.”
-Patrick O’Malley, PhD, grief therapist and author of Getting Grief Right: Finding Your Story of Love in the Sorrow of Loss
“Kathe’s story is both candid and heart-warming. It helps the reader process a heart-wrenching diagnosis of Alzheimer’s, using faith and hope as a constant guide. As I became immersed in her family’s journey, I found myself, at times, reliving our own family’s experience with dementia.”
-Gail Snider, executive director of Dementia Friendly Fort Worth
“From the prologue to the final chapter, Love Remembers brings the reader face to face with the realities of loving someone with memory loss. Readers will be able to relate to the stages one goes through when grieving the losses one faces through Alzheimer’s. Kathe is transparent in her telling of the struggle that is Alzheimer’s and generous with sharing the wisdom and insight she gained during her family’s journey.”
-Megan (Mrs. Victor) Boschini, wife of the chancellor of Texas Christian University
