Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

SLOW DANCING THROUGH THE FINAL YEARS is a feel good story about the joys of leading a loved one through the many stages of a degenerative illness, such as Alzheimer's, Muscular Dystrophy, Parkinson's, or a stroke. It is a chronicle advancing the idea that caring is joy, that slow good-byes are not all bad, and that life's greatest reward is the giving of one's best love.It is an inspirational self-help guide, offering pathways of discovering one's own personal growth in the process of caring for a loved one with an illness that chips away at their life, little by little each day. This story is about a mother who had a twenty year walk with Alzheimer's. The author, her daughter, imparts her very happy and active life during her years of part-time care for her mother and offers her method of segregating time for each of her life's demands. The underlying theme is: "Make lemonade with lemons".SLOW DANCING offers enlightened options for the caregiver to investigate and choices to consider. For many it seems like a long dark tunnel, but this book offers them encouragement and a glimpse of the bright light at the end of the tunnel.
