Produktbeschreibung
On Easter Sunday, 2003, John Wilferth, a dynamic thirty-seven-year-old financial advisor, experienced a devastating status epilepticus seizure for over five hours. Two days later, he woke to find himself with a rare cognitive disorder-partial long-term memory loss combined with severe impairment of his short-term memory function. Not only had much of John's past disappeared, the way in which he experienced the present had changed radically. What is it like when you cannot remember what happened an hour, or even five minutes ago? How do you work? How do you plan your life? How do you even go shopping, hold a conversation, or take a simple walk without getting lost? >The memoir serves as a beacon of hope, aiming to shed light on the complexities of epilepsy and memory loss. During Melinda's caregiving odyssey, the act of writing became a cathartic experience, a therapeutic outlet for her emotions. Her aspirations extend beyond her narrative. With a mission to alter perceptions and diminish the stigma surrounding epilepsy and memory loss, she envisions her book being embraced by a traditional publishing company. Her dream is to see her book adapted into a movie, reaching a broader audience with its powerful message. Through her courageous storytelling, she not only shares her journey but also strives to instill faith in God and inspire others facing similar challenges. The sunset may descend like memories, but the scenery it gives is a reminder that we should view things deeply and find solutions to the difficulties we are facing because, after the sunset, there's a new tomorrow waiting for us.
