Acerca de esta escucha
Early Onset Alzheimer’s: A Love Story
It started with strange behavior—a hostile outburst here, a peculiar lapse of memory there. Then it became violent. The beautiful, vivacious Carmen Moffett was behaving in ways her husband Pat could not understand. Their marriage had been a long love affair. Together, they raised five beautiful children in Great Neck, New York, and were looking forward to planning their retirement together. Then came the outbursts, both verbal and physical, and the forgetting.
Confused and increasingly nervous, Pat consulted doctors, but no one could find anything physically wrong with Carmen. Worse yet, she could not remember doing the things that rattled Pat. Finally, several years later, incidents at Carmen’s work forced her to another doctor, Gisele Wolf-Klein, who diagnosed the devastating illness. As she slipped away, Carmen reached out for Pat. He was the one she could remember, even if she did not always know exactly who he was.
With remarkable grace and an incredibly strong will, Carmen accepted that she was fading, that she would disappear. But through all of it, she managed to reserve three words for Pat. These three words exemplify the theme of their lives together, to this day.
“Ice Cream in the Cupboard takes the reader on the tumultuous journey of one family’s struggle with early onset Alzheimer’s disease. Mr. Moffett’s soul-bearing account is painfully honest and gives the reader a very personal perspective of this insidious illness and its overwhelming impact on all in its path.”—Barbara Vogel, Northwell Health
“With considerable polish and frankness, Moffett crystalizes the issues surrounding Early Onset Alzheimer’s, a disease that will become increasingly prevalent as baby boomers move through their 50’s. Cathartic and cautionary.”—Kirkus Discoveries

Almost six million Americans—about one in every ten people over the age of sixty-five—have Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias, and this number is projected to more than double by 2050. What is it like to live with and amid this increasingly prevalent condition—an affliction that some fear more than death? In My Father’s Brain, the distinguished physician and author Sandeep Jauhar sets his father’s descent into Alzheimer’s alongside his own journey toward understanding this disease and how it might best be coped with, if not cured.

This book is everything a caregiver for a loved one with Alzheimer's needs. There is much to be said about the practical advice that Lisa offers: navigating the tangled world of American healthcare systems, finding tricks and strategies to support the patient at home, moving through to higher levels of care, and much more. These things are invaluable. But what really shines through and captivates the reader is Lisa’s love for Peter, her skillful storytelling, and her passion for making his life all it could be, then sharing that with others.

The result is an achingly beautiful work on the fragile human condition from a profoundly wise and empathetic writer.

But he'll take care of that easily, by divorcing her—even if his adult daughters protest. Tully and Rachel Aston look upon Heather as nothing but an interloper. Heather is the same age as Rachel and even younger than Tully. Clearly she's a gold digger and after their father's money.

Excellent and heartbreaking
This was an absolutely great book. The narrator was about perfect.
Mt Dad died from Alzheimer’s Disease so I know firsthand how hideous this disease is for all involved. I was able to relate to almost everything Pat Moffet went through as a caregiver and how sad it was for Carmen. I highly recommend this book for anyone currently dealing with this disease and anyone who has already lost someone to it.

Touching & Honest
A glimpse into the window of the man & family who lost their beloved matriarch to early onset Alzheimer’s.
There were moments the author could have omitted, but he didn’t. He left it all on the table. I found this very brave & courageous.
