    "Caring for a Loved One with Alzheimer's: The Truth" is the memoir covering the episodic scenarios and events Judy and I experienced tracked through the seven stages of the disease. This is the I sought but couldn't find when my wife, Judy, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2013. This memoir is intended to help newbie caregivers prepare mentally and perhaps psychologically for the challenges ahead. This memoir also tracks the emotional bond between Judy and I formed in the earliest phase of our relationship and the resentment that the stress from long-term caregiving coupled with isolation focused on daughter, Suzanne, and came a climax toward the end.
