Autorenporträt

Author, Melodie Yates, 74, is a survivor (you can read about details in her next book, I've Climbed Invisible Mountains). Married for 50 years to an amazing man, who for the last 16 years has progressed deeper into his Alzheimer's disease, she wrote poems as a release. They were a means of letting off steam, naming and claiming her frustration and emotions as they came. Her related credentials are flexibility, love, perseverance, and desperation. With no formal training in writing, no particular expertise in caregiving beyond learned experience, she hopes by sharing her journey, others will find solace and confirmation. Through the Write to Unite Program, led by Kim Douglas, Melodie has been able to create Love is an Action Verb: A Caregiver's Journey. These poems and their accompanying reflections are a piece of the author's soul. Join her to experience the validity of our interconnectedness.
