The Secrets, Struggles and Successes of an Alzheimer’s Caregiver is a transformational account of a daughter’s twelve-year journey caring for her mother suffering with Alzheimer’s, a disease known for its cruel ability to erase memory, to blur identities, and to transform relationships—and transform it did. The book describes the relentless progression of the disease and its impact on both mother and daughter.

The daughter grappling with the role-reversal, navigating healthcare systems, advocating for her mother, and managing the day-to-day care while dealing with the emotional toll such responsibility brings. More than an intense caregiver’s journey, this poignant story is a universal testament to the human spirit’s capacity to endure, adapt, and find hope in the most despairing of circumstances.

It is a tribute honoring the courage, tenacity, and the unspoken sacrifices all caregivers make for their loved ones. .
