Forever Bound

<p><strong>No one can prepare you to become a caregiver to your spouse when they are diagnosed with and suffer from Alzheimer's. In <em>Forever Bound</em> devoted husband Michael compiles an anthology of poems for similar caregiving spouses. </strong></p><p>For nearly 40 years Michael and Diane shared the most incredible life together-building their dreams their family and their intertwined lives. When Diane was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease their life together continued... but roles began to shift. </p><p>Soon Michael's vivacious loving wife transformed into a wheelchair-bound person whose verbal and written skills have all but disappeared and who could no longer take care of her daily basic human needs. Through everything a deep love prevailed-but that didn't erase the emotional rollercoaster Michael unknowingly boarded when he took the mantle of <em>caregiver</em>.</p><p>To help himself process his feelings and to offer support to other spouses in similar situations Michael has crafted a small but powerful book of poems that encapsulate the litany of emotions that caregiving for a spouse with Alzheimer's brings. The poems within <em>Forever Bound</em> reflect the intensity of thoughts and feelings as a husband watches his wife decline knowing he can do nothing to stop the progression.</p><p>Early readers have termed the poetry collection powerful emotional and tough with refreshing candor and seemingly inspired by a higher being. At its foundation <em>Forever Bound</em> is simply meant for like minded readers to acknowledge the deep feelings generated by this Alzheimer's journey-and to recognize that they are not alone. </p><p>For husbands wives and other partners in life who have walked the Alzheimer's journey with their affected significant other... This poetry collection sees you hears youand validates you.</p>
