I Will Never Forget is the incredible true story of the author’s talented mother’s poignant and humorous journey through Dementia. As their relationship evolves and a new paradigm is formed, Betty exhibits goofy actions, uncharacteristic verbal assaults, and bizarre thinking. Although clearly mystified by her mother’s irrational behaviors, Elaine does not initially appreciate the extent of Betty’s mental decline. Her mother’s amazing ability to mask the truth clouds Elaine’s vision and prolongs her denial until one cataclysmic explosion of reality over an innocuous drapery rod launches a waterfall of destructive events.
This is the background for this episode's conversation. Elaine & I discuss what may or may not actually be happening with our loved ones' memory. You'll learn from Elaine that dementia doesn't always show us its true face.
