Bleeding Hearts: A True Story of Alzheimer's, Family, and the Other Woman Second Edition

A kind of death...Alzheimer’s not only steals the patient’s life but also devastates the family—no one more so than the spouse, who is now married to someone no longer “here.” Bleeding Hearts is the candid narrative of a husband torn between love for his wife and the need to move on with his own life. Told by “the other woman,” whom he meets at a time when he most needs her, the story of Eric, his wife, family, and new love, Tami, breaks the silence on a sensitive subject–offering comfort and insight to those struggling with the conflicting emotions that arise when Alzheimer’s strikes the one you love.
