Great experience with this one.

The part of this book that is unique and amazing is the emphasis on your relationship with the person you're caring for, and making the most of it. Tons of compassion in this book. Excellent narrator as well.

Watching my grandfather fade into the fog of dementia was heartbreaking. The frustration of not being able to connect left me feeling helpless. Then I found this book, and it became a lifeline.

It helped me see my role not just as a caregiver, but as a companion on my grandfather's journey. Now, we spend our mornings looking at old photo albums together. He might not remember everything, but the joy in his eyes tells a different story.
