Paperback. Promise Me, Daughter highlights the heartbreaking dilemma that adult children (or anyone caring for a loved one) often face when their parent is diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease or other debilitating conditions. How do you respond when your loved one cries out: "Promise me, promise me, that you will never, ever, put me in a nursing home!" Written from the perspective of a devoted daughter who is also a nurse and attorney, this book offers invaluable insights into many of the medical, healthcare, and legal issues that families may encounter during the course of this devastating disease. During her mother's long illness, the author worked as an attorney representing entities on the continuum of long-term care. She shares her personal and professional knowledge through poignant educational narratives. The author guides readers through the challenges of a daughter's enduring love for her mother, including the realities of long-distance caregiving. Sharing the caregiving burdens with siblings, she demonstrates how grief in families caring for a person with Alzheimer's can take its toll while also strengthening bonds. This memoir is a blend of a daughter's journey, her mother's story, and enlightening anecdotes. While not a self-help book, the author hopes the reader will gain practical insights and nuggets of comfort, courage, and confidence. ********With kindness and compassion, Kathleen Hessler guides her readers through the complex maze of options that must be considered when caring for a loved one who suffers from dementia. Both a lawyer and a nurse, Kathleen is uniquely qualified to explain the legal and health challenges involved in this daunting process. Her book brought tears to my eyes, but also warmed my heart and made me laugh out loud. Read it. You won't be sorry. Judith Schiess Avila, co-author of the NYT bestseller: Code Talker: The first and only memoir by one of the original Navajo code talkers.
