OverviewAbout Alzheimer's Wife When Jensen's husband of nearly fifty years was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, her whole life changed, from mutual partner to primary caregiver. In Alzheimer's Wife, follow her journey through a process of loss and suffering. Experience a vibrant and loving relationship stretched to the breaking point, due to the deteriorating effects of this disease. Follow her as, in distress, she was falling apart - to the point of wanting to end her life. But despite the hurt, loneliness and painful endurance, Jensen came through to the other side. She emerged from utter despair to acceptance, with a deeper understanding of herself, and appreciation of the world around her. Jensen developed resilience, and built a new life for herself on this journey. This book is just one person's story, but the intention is to offer understanding, sympathy and encouragement to all who feel alone as the caregiver of someone with Alzheimer's disease. If you are walking through this process, or know someone who is, then this book is for you.
