Loved this book. An excellent story of survival, love, strength, and the dementia diagnosis of an amazing woman through her granddaughter's eyes. Keep your tissue close both for laughter and tears. Best read! Great laughs! I just finished reading your book and I really enjoyed it. I also went through dementia with my father and now we are going through it with my in-laws. I've read it already, but need to read it again. OMG...she really was a wild one!!! I started reading it and I can just picture Joan saying all those things. She was always the life of any event. I read a couple of chapters and I can't stop laughing. Please get this book.
