In My Two Elaines, author, former governor of Wisconsin, Martin Schreiber, watches his beloved wife, Elaine, gradually transform from the Elaine he fell in love with in high school, and who diligently supported his political career, to the Elaine who knows she is declining and can’t remember how to cook a meal, and finally to the Elaine who no longer recognizes Marty or their children. Excerpts from Elaine’s journal recount her thoughts, concerns, and frustrations as the disease progresses, and Marty recounts his struggles in caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. He offers sage advice throughout the book including: “What I Wish I Had Known.”“Marty shares a story of struggle that will resonate with caregivers. With a true public servant’s heart, he provides tips and encouragement sure to help male caregivers in particular.” — Maria Shriver, Award-Winning Journalist and Founder"I applaud My Two Elaines: Learning, Coping, and Surviving as an Alzheimer’s Caregiver for focusing on Alzheimer’s caregivers' trials and triumphs. Caregivers are heroes for their selflessness and love all while meeting challenges we never imagine. Cheers to Marty Schreiber as he shares how we as caregivers do everything we can to make sure our loved ones' physical needs are met, legacies are preserved and integrity remain in tact. — Jim Nantz, Founder of the Nantz National Alzheimer Center, National Sports Broadcaster.
