What Dementia Teaches Us About Love by Nicci Gerrard

5.0

---

Soooo many times I found myself tearing up while listening to this book. She nails what it’s like to love someone with dementia, she nails the stigma, she nails the fear from both the loved one and the people facing the disease from afar. She even handled the difficult and uncomfortable conversation about death with dignity surround dementia and how so many people find shame in “losing their mind” she also nailed all the stupid shit people say to/about the disease
 God. This is probably the best book on dementia I’ve ever read. Recommending this to everyone.
