From the multi-award-winning author, Dr. Angela Arias, comes the perfect follow up to her coming-of-age memoir about her life in Bronx, New York, as a young Latina immigrant, Half a Century Ago.

In story after story in this brilliant collection of memories, Stories of My Dad as He Lay Dying, the author brings to life the last months of her father's existence as he struggled with two devastating illnesses. Both Multiple Myeloma and Alzheimer's created a cocktail of ailments that tested both strength of character and resilience for a loving family.

These stories narrate his last memories and show how the mind, as it fails, can retain some of its most important values. Humor, family love, devotion, and sacrifice are all beautifully portrayed in the stories portrayed in this volume.
