This is a moving, inspirational personal journey into Alzheimers disease. Gerry has incorporated many techniques with a gentle loving approach to address complications arising from crippling disease. Her diary excerpts are real and honest. This book is not only emotional, truthful and educational; it expresses the bond and undying love between mother and daugher. Caregivers must read it. It is a powerful book.

From the author:
My title refers to the journey Mother and I took into the world of Alzheimers. As I listen to others talk about their experiences, they also refer to it as a journey. In many ways that word accurately describes the experience. When you start out on a journey, you often meet many obstaclestwists and turns in the roadmany joyful and some not so happy events occur. Much the same happens when you care for someone with Alzheimers. The road ahead is unknownsometimes scary with many bumps, twists and turns, and sometimes precious and breathtakingly wonderful. I hope somehow that because of this book your experience may be less scary and much more precious.
The author was born in Mowbray, Manitoba, in 1927. Gerry moved to BC in 1950. She married Martin Meggait in 1952 in Armstrong, BC, and has lived there ever since. They live on a family farm that has hosted many Boy Scout and Girl Guide camps, church events, and school outings.
Gerry has spent a lifetime caring for people. She and Martin had four children, one of them (Billy) died of leukemia in 1963. This only intensified her desire to help others - family and people within her area of influence. Gerry's main community involvement has been in the church, Scouting (at the boy level and as an adult trainer), seniors, and for twenty six years has held various positions in an association for persons with developmental disabilities - Board Chair, Manager of Programming/Training, and honorary member of the society, as well as instructing at the local community college. Although this background has been valuable, she writes as a daughter and not as an expert.
Gerry's desire is to futher help people through the publication of this book.
