Gap Between

One woman shares her emotional experience navigating her parents’ declining health, culminating in her mother’s years-long struggle with Alzheimer’s.

Mary Moreland details her journey through the stages of grief as she comes to terms with her father’s death, followed by her mother’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis. As her mother’s disease progresses over eight years, Mary walks readers through the earliest phase and all the way to her mother’s deathbed. She provides insightful advice on grieving and caring for loved ones with dementia or Alzheimer’s, alongside her own story of loss.
