Synopsis
Mom, I Think You May Have Alzheimer's. These Words Were Life-changing For Award-winning Novelist Raynetta Manees. Alzheimer's Disease Had Already Ravaged Three Generations Of Her Family-her Grandmother, Mother, And Brother. Now It Was Her Turn To Face The Harrowing Prospect Of Dementia For Her Own Future. She Shares Her Apprehensive Journey Of Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis In This, Her First Non-fiction Book. Manees Focuses On The Process Of Alzheimer's Disease Diagnosis. This Critical Phase Of The Deadliest Form Of Dementia Is Often Inadequately Addressed Amid Data On Dementia Warning Signs And Caregiver Guidelines. Manees Tackles This Somber Subject Respectfully, But Also With The Light And Often Humorous Touch That Is Her Trademark. The Book Is A Memoir, But Additionally Gives Informational And Technical Insight, Including The Projected Alzheimer's Disease Tsunami.
