Thank you dear reader for this kind & generous review of Finding the Right Words: A Story of Literature, Grief, & the Brain, the #memoir I wrote with #UCSF #neurologist, Dr. Bruce Miller in honor of my father who died of #early-onset #Alzheimer's. For people interested in reading other books about #dementia, I would recommend #DashaKiper's Travelers to Unimaginable Lands, #SandeepJauhar's My Father's Brain, & #AmyBloom's In Love.

Today is the last day of #Alzheimer's & #Brain Awareness month. If you want to read about #dementia, consider #SandeepJauhar's My Father's Brain, #DashaKiper's Traveler's to Unimaginable Lands, #AmyBloom's In Love. Finding the Right Words, my #memoir, written w/#neurologist Dr. Bruce Miller, is about my father's #early-onset Alzheimers. We wrote it to share info. about #neurology, the challenges of #caregiving, & how brutal the #grief can be.
Remembering my dad today and everyday.

@IntentionallyBLANK. I am so sorry to hear about this incredibly difficult/painful/lengthy situation. I hear you about a care facility. If we are wise, we communicate to the people we love what we want. I recently read several books that touch upon different options. In case you're interested, there is #AmyBloom's In Love, #SandeepJauhar's My Father's Brain, #DashaKiper's Travelers to Unimaginable Lands. I also wrote a #memoir w/ #neurologist Dr. Bruce Miller about my father's dementia.

Having just read several recent #books/#memoirs about #Alzheimer's, I recommend #AmyBloom's, #DashaKiper's, and #SandeepJauhar's. Each tells the story of loves and losses (to borrow from Bloom's subtitle) in different and powerful ways.

Exit Strategy
Amy Bloom tells the story of her husband, Brian, getting Alzheimer's and wanting assisted suicide. Her search to find a way to do that led her to Dignitas, in Switzerland. Hear this intimate and frank account of the experience they go through, excerpted from her book, IN LOVE.
