Unveiling the poignant and deeply personal journey of a daughter navigating the uncharted waters of her father's Alzheimer's diagnosis, "Through the Fog" offers an intimate glimpse into the challenges, triumphs, and profound lessons that accompany caring for a loved one with this insidious disease. With raw honesty and compelling prose, the author transports readers into the labyrinth of uncertainty and loss, painting a vivid picture of the insidious decline that shadows her father's once-sharp mind. Through her poignant storytelling, she illuminates the rollercoaster of emotions, the heart-wrenching moments of clarity interspersed with episodes of profound disorientation, and the agonizing search for moments of connection amidst the fading memories. This poignant memoir delves into the practicalities of caregiving, exploring the complexities of medical interventions, navigating the healthcare system, and the emotional toll on family members. It candidly addresses the complexities of grief, both anticipatory and in the wake of loss, while offering a glimmer of hope and resilience. Ultimately, "Through the Fog" transcends the personal experience to become a universal testament to the transformative power of love, the fragility of memory, and the indomitable spirit that endures in the face of adversity.

An engrossing middle-grade novel set in a high-fantasy video game world that’s part Kathryn Erskine’s Mockingbird, part Patrick Ness’s A Monster Calls. Wellhall is an immersive online fantasy world full of giants, sorcerers, and elves—and it’s junior-high-schooler Nick’s only escape from real life. Nick and his mom used to play the online video game together before her early-onset Alzheimer’s forced her to enter an assisted-living facility. At first, Nick seeks distraction in the game, but he soon becomes convinced that his mom is playing the game as a character named Reunne, and dropping him hints about her diagnosis and how he can help her return home. Even as Nick becomes more and more certain that Reunne is actually his mother, Nick’s father and his new friend encourage Nick to confront the possibility that the game is just a game, and that he needs to be prepared to say goodbye to his mother as he knows her. . . . “Readers—gamers and nongamers alike—will cheer the resolution of Nick’s transformative journey. Thoughtful, earnest, and gratifying.” —Kirkus Reviews “A lovely, heartwarming story of a young man negotiating personal crises with the help of games, friends, and family, perfect for readers who appreciate a blend of fantasy and realism.” —The Bulletin “A complex, emotional story about grief and acceptance. . . . A strong, thought-provoking novel.” —Publishers Weekly

"Lyndon’s Fog" weaves together an eclectic group of past vignettes with present events which are echoed by many families who encounter Alzheimer’s. Exploring the topics of memory loss and taking responsibility while wading through the mucky morality of the diminishing brain is a wild ride. Every caregiver will grapple with either living lies or telling lies. A desperate lie is told to try to help the author’s father believe the truth that his wife is dead. With a fragile mind, simple tasks like cooking and driving become impossible. Even though they grieve and fight their loss of independence, the care giver also grieves and fights to take on the responsibility of caring for their loved one. Juggling all these balls in life are compared to a memorable raft ride down a raging river. The journey begins with frustration, confusion follows, and nonsense swallows up reality. Filters on speech seem to fail, life values appear to be in flux, losses on every front increase, but joy can be found in the story of living. Recording the tenderness of her father’s missed speech on her wedding day because he was thoughtfully driving his own dementia diseased mother-in-law back to the nursing home, embodies the cycle of life’s motto-- love equals family and families love. Sweeping up a crawling carpet of white maggots out of the back of a jeep and fishing a wallet out of a smelly outhouse will bring tears and laughter that meld together as you enter this family’s encounters. These and more treasured stories are crafted into a beautiful authentic tale of life shared. You will enter the emotional roller coaster and finally grieve when he breathes his last breath and death comes, even like taxes, inescapable; but there is purpose, even in all of this.

Do you wonder where God is in Alzheimer's? Are you searching for hope in caregiving? I searched too--I lost both of my parents to Alzheimer's. They were its innocent victims. Caregiving for someone with Alzheimer's can be painfully brutal. We know how it ends. There is no cure. It doesn't get better. But I learned that we don't have to be defeated by it. And there is much grace and collateral beauty to be found in the journey. From broken memories to broken bones, Alzheimers catalyzed terror and defeat in my family. My parents were terrorized by the scrambling of their minds. We who loved them had to suffocate our feelings of defeat as they returned to innocence. As a caregiver, God allowed me to share in my parents passages back to undefeated innocence. I gained loving moments that I would have missed if I hadnt been involved and if I hadnt taken up the proper vantage point to see them. Undefeated Innocence offers hope to caregivers by weaving poignant personal experiences, humor, and biblical stories with a study of the Beatitudes. It answers Where is God? in Alzheimers. It confirms that caregiving experiences are abnormally normal, and its okay to store toothpaste in an underwear drawer. Undefeated Innocence reveals Gods grace through the storms and affirms that caregivers are not alone in wondering if life can return to a place of peace.
