Informative

I found this book to not only be informative about the disease, but also encouraging.

Battleground of a disease unimaginable till you join the dance.

Beautiful story of loving and living with a partner whom is held in the grips of Alzheimers. The battle fought between The compassionate giver and The Taker of life before death. Slow Dancing with a Stranger is a must read for those who love deeply for better or worse.

Heartbroken wife

This was excellent and so very eye opening. I cried uncontrollably for your loss and bravery. I will be going through this same thing. I can only hope I’m just as brave.
