"My life couldn't become an endurance test.”

Written from the lived experiences of a wife, a mother, a grandmother, and a care partner for her husband after his diagnosis of Alzheimer's, Myrna shares her story in hopes that readers will move from the "tragedy talk" surrounding a dementia diagnosis to a mindset of possibilities she calls CareLiving.

“I couldn’t let our bad news become a bad life.”

Myrna's book is different from others on dementia. It describes a way of "being," not "doing." It wasn't what she did but why she did it that resulted in redefining the term caregiving to Care-LIVING.

Note the difference:

"Giving" --- heavy, burdensome, overwhelmed, about HIM/HER—a JOB.

"LIVING" ---lighter, peaceful, grateful, about US—a CHOICE

“Because there was no book out there to help me, I wrote my own. To my surprise, it became a love story that covers five years from Larry's diagnosis to his death. It's honest, true, and hopefully inspiring. It might even put a smile on your face. I wasn't perfect, but oh, how I tried.”
