Married to Alzheimer's : a life less ordinary with Tony Booth

Booth, Steph2019
Books, Manuscripts
When her husband Tony was diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 2004, Steph Booth had to say goodbye to life as she knew it. The disease encroached into their lives, taking away Tony day by day. Open and honest, but with heart and warmth, Steph reveals and the hardship of caring for Tony and losing herself in the midst of it. Along the way we learn of the people they were, the dynamics of their relationship - Tony's theatrics, Steph's stubbornness - effortlessly captured with lightness and humour. Borne out of her much-loved Irish Times column, this is a poignant account of a life and love torn apart by dementia and a bond that was unshakeable.
