Finding Rita - Paperback

This is a daughter's journey with her mother as she faces emotional issues of anger and alcoholism and ultimately succumbs to the disease of Alzheimer's. It demonstrates the struggle everyone affected by this tragic disease endures and the need for more research into an eventual cure. In the meantime, the reality of caregiving should be shared in order to be understood, so I wrote this book to possibly help someone like me.
