A Daughter's Love and Care for Her Mother with Alzheimer's
My dear friend, Marlene Beckner, recently lost her beloved mother to Alzheimer’s Disease. Marlene was blessed to be able to fulfill a childhood promise she had made to her mother to care for her at home if she ever became unable to care for herself. While taking care of her mother, God graciously helped her find the bright side of Alzheimer’s Disease and has become passionate about sharing her message with others.
FINDING THE BRIGHT SIDE: Actively Seeking and Finding the Bright Side of Alzheimer’s Disease is the story of how she and her mother gained victory over Alzheimer’s Disease. Marlene’s prayer is that many will see this difficult disease from a new perspective.
I've already read Marlene's wonderful book, and having lost my own very special mother to cancer, my vision was blurred many times with tears, as I read about Marlene's own down times, lonliness and grief.
She is such an amazing woman though, as she found a bright side to each difficulty she faced in caring for her mother. In her book Marlene also shares very helpful, practical tips that made caring for her mother so much easier. My husband said he wanted to read it as well, and found it to be helpful and inspirational.
