Produktbeschreibung

A heart-warming story about friendships, love, intrigue, and the search for a missing woman. Set in Manchester, Spain and Devon, we meet Mary Reynolds, a lady who has dementia. But, behind the illness is a person, and the story follows her interesting and eventful life, starting in the 1940s. A novice care worker, Patsy Bennett, has the natural insight to see beyond Mary's dementia, and sets out on a path of learning more about dementia, so she can help Mary to find happiness once again. For anyone wanting a positive read about dementia, plus an interesting story, this book dispels some of the myths about the illness. Drawing on the author's many years of studying and working with people with dementia, the book tells the story of an intelligent, resourceful woman. A woman who is still the same person she always was but who, in later life, has lost her identity.
