the book that inspired the play

Alzheimer's!  What is that?  That was the question I asked myself when I started my caregiver's journey.  I could not believe or understand how my mother contracted such a disease like this.  Laughing to Keep From Crying, This Alzheimer's Thing is No Joke delves into what my family, my mother, and I went through as we struggled with how to care for her with Alzheimer's. I witnessed the deterioration of my mother's laughter, love, and ultimately her life.

"an easy read, full of informaiton that can be used when coping with loved ones as a caregiver. It helps to know that someone out there knows exactly what you are going through emotionally, physically, and mentally. Thank you!!!
