A short while ago, Authorhouse published my book, Vignettes of Yvette at Vi. This new book contains additional vignettes of my wife, Yvette, who is in a Memory Support unit at the Care Center that is attached to a large retirement home, called Vi at Palo Alto. These vignettes are meant to demonstrate that a new life can be created for dementia sufferers—a life that is interesting and enjoyable, contains much beauty, and presents challenges that can make this new life meaningful. Carmen, Marcela, the nursing staff, and I have worked hard and long to achieve these goals for Yvette, and we have had some measure of success. Carmen and I especially have absolutely not accepted "downhill all the way" for the beautiful woman we love so dearly.
