"The Other Side of Alzheimer's, a caregiver's story"

By Marietta Harris

Angie is an Afro-American woman who grows up in Pacific Heights, one of wealthiest areas in San Francisco’s during the 1950’s. Despite the racial mix, neighbors respected and cared about each other. The struggles of discrimination and bigotry that was a focus in America was absent from her neighborhood. We watch Angie grow up to be a well-educated, gifted young woman. Her family is well respected and never struggles to make ends meet. This story is an in-depth look at how her life changes, not from outside forces, but from those within her own family. It’s a positive affirmation that you can make a difference, even when you've gone through the worst experiences of your life. It's not a book about Alzheimer’s; it’s a story about life. This book will help you change the way you face challenges in YOUR life.
