Head Case: My Father, Alzheimer’s & Other Brainstorms
Miriam Wallace, Professor of English & Gender Studies at New College of Florida, recommended this book on the Health Hum listserv. Author Alexis Orgera is a poet and the daughter of someone with early onset Alzheimer's. Said Wallace, "What's particularly lovely is the way it blends caregiving with learning about the disease--some great accounts of time she spent drawing with her father as a way to keep him connected as the disease progressed."
