Description: "Most people think Alzheimer's disease is the same as memory loss or hope that if they ignore it hard enough, it will go away. That was certainly Marion Agnew's hope when her mother -- a Queen's and Harvard/Radcliffe-educated mathematician, nuclear weapons researcher, award-winning professor and researcher, as well as a mother of five -- began drifting away from her. This moving memoir looks at grief and family, at love and music. It is a coming-to-terms reflection on the endurance of love and family."--
