Coming from someone who's experienced Alzheimer's first hand w/ multiple loved ones. Brilliant story about its up's and down's and how to handle them. Also a great feel good experience w/ the meshing of different cultures and inspirational towards committing to your craft. Incredibly well written book including plenty of laughs and tears. This was really hard to put down. Would recommend it to ANYONE, especially those who've seen loved ones go through this debilitating disease.
