The fact that Americans are living longer, healthier lives coupled with his own aging motivated the author to write this book. As Baby Boomers age, more than one in five Americans will be over 65 years old. This increase in the average age of Americans will have a widespread impact on every aspect of society, and is already beginning to be felt. This impact has inspired Dr. Liu to write this book in an effort to relieve the sufferings of those who have been diagnosed with this dreaded brain disease and their caregivers who suffer along with them. The author affirms that it is God's love through Christ which encourages him to provide reason of hope in God's remembrance: hope that is from an informed theological perspective, a sense of purpose in the face of this disease. Because of the author's godly motive and desire to offer help for sufferers, the author provides comfort through assurances that the sufferer's conditions are not leading to the end of their lives.
