Thank you dear reader for this kind & generous review of Finding the Right Words: A Story of Literature, Grief, & the Brain, the #memoir I wrote with #UCSF #neurologist, Dr. Bruce Miller in honor of my father who died of #early-onset #Alzheimer's. For people interested in reading other books about #dementia, I would recommend #DashaKiper's Travelers to Unimaginable Lands, #SandeepJauhar's My Father's Brain, & #AmyBloom's In Love.

@IntentionallyBLANK @MardraS @LaNaehForaday. All of this is very true. In the spirit of support, I'd like to recommend #DashaKiper's Travelers to Unimaginable Lands: Stories of Dementia, the Caregiver, and the Human Brain. It's about how very hard #caregiving is, especially in the context of #Alzheimer's. It is available as an #audiobook if time for reading is scarce.

@design_law. Fun!

@lastrobot. Oh, that's a really great one! I was JUST thinking that #DashaKiper's #TravelersToUnimaginableLands would be a good non-fiction book to include. Thank you!

@andisheh. Love this question! I read the Everett and Oshetsky a while ago but they remain very much with me.

@IntentionallyBLANK. I am so sorry to hear about this incredibly difficult/painful/lengthy situation. I hear you about a care facility. If we are wise, we communicate to the people we love what we want. I recently read several books that touch upon different options. In case you're interested, there is #AmyBloom's In Love, #SandeepJauhar's My Father's Brain, #DashaKiper's Travelers to Unimaginable Lands. I also wrote a #memoir w/ #neurologist Dr. Bruce Miller about my father's dementia.
