Keeper

A hard read at times. This is an insightful and ‘laughing through the tears’ account of someone looking after a relative who has Alzheimer's Disease. It navigates the pitfalls and the high points, it is open and honest. It gives hope but also a true representation of the toll this can take on a carer. A must read for anyone looking after an Alzheimer patient, as it is incredibly comforting to know you are not alone. All this is done in a well-written and never condescending narrative. Even if you have not experienced this in your life, it is well worth reading. Your heart will ache but your spirit will soar.
