Life is filled with complexities, ups and downs, bumps and bruises; yet, it is a beautiful journey. It's the love, the gift of extraordinary people along the way that makes it worthwhile. I had to write this book! I want to honor an inimitable woman named Mandy who taught me so much but most importantly, how to love. This book illustrates the fragility of family bonds, lack of understanding of the aging process and what is important in dealing with the davasting impact of a loved one's diagnosis and experience with alzehimer's. Even though this book journeys through some events from childhood to some of the most difficult chapters of my life, it is about unconditional love and learning that finger pointing and blame has no place during these heart wrenching periods. This is an account of life's lessons and the most valuable objectives being to learn to grow, to forgive, and to heal in order to move forward. Most importantly, it is a testimony of faith and knowing that no matter what we go through, God never leaves us to go through it alone. He knows our heart, sees our efforts and when others may forget, God Knows Our Name.
My uttmost desire is that this books (in honor of and in the spirit of Mandy), sheds light, enlightenment, and encourages and inspire you on your journey to being better.
Be blessed!! Ann
