EMBRACING DEMENTIA
A Call to Love by Ellen Marie Edmonds

This is a book that all of us sooner or later will have to know about. People are living longer than they have in the past and many of their memories have not kept pace with their physical well-being. Those who care for them are often baffled as to how to deal with these poor souls. This book shows how this suffering can be coped with graciously and gracefully. I would highly recommend this book.

Listen to this paragraph of the Preface of the book written by Father Angelus. It will help you in your spiritual life.
“This thing called ‘dementia.’ An experience of the darkest night, some might say. And yet, we know that light is brighter when darkness is darker. Could it be that God has allowed the dark plague of dementia, in all its forms throughout the world, to help us see the light of His Love? Ellen’s love for God and for her husband, combined with her strong faith and hope, enabled her to fully embrace her husband’s illness and to companion him in the commitment of compassionate love. It is truly a story of faith, hope, and unconditional love.”
