Fading Angel was a sad journey into the land of the aging for me. I personally know the author who is my first cousin and her Mom was my Aunt Alice. I knew Aunt Alice as a pleased, bouncy, highly intelligent woman who loved her life and family. In Aunt Alice’s late 40’s, she enrolled in classes to upgrade her accounting skills; she learned how to type and perform office work. She landed a job as the secretary to the Fire Chief in her city. I had small contact with Sande and Aunt Alice for nearly 30 years so presume my surprize and horror when I read Sande’s book, Fading Angel!!
I have read and re-read the book countless times. I’ve shed many tears, but everlastingly come to the same conclusion. The key is to handle the Alzheimer patient with the same respect you had shown them all their lives… be consistent, patient, assuring and constantly show the patient they are loved. The author shares with us that she balanced her Mother over and over that they would be together no matter what. My admiration and respect for Sande is limitless as she takes us down the long path to devastation of the mind which Alzheimers victims will endure.
This book is one to share with a loved one who is aging. Senior citizens who are unsure and dread their fate may find some hope and consolation in Sande’s well-written paragraphs. Caregivers will find her book especially helpful in “lining up their ducks”.
As I live in the State of Florida which has a vast senior citizen populace, I was honored to bestow Sande’s book to two Alzheimer Support Groups here on the Space Coast. I have also donated a copy of Fading Angel to our local library in my Aunt Alice’s memory. My sister, who lives in northern Wisconsin, has done the same.
Wonderful job, Sande, and a tribute to your Mom, my Aunt Alice, who will everlastingly be ageless in my memory.

I have had an opportunity to read Fading Angel’s. I personnally know the author which made it even more touching to read her book. Well, excellent isn’t the word. It is Magnificant tribute to her mother. The beauty of this book is that this really would help prepare yourself for what lies ahead if one of your family members was injured with this disease. It is a book anyone may possibly pick up and learn much about the disease and life itself. Life throws us curve balls all the time, it is how we handle them and get through them. Be prepared to laugh and weep at the same time with this book. Each chapter teaches you a small bit more of how to prepare and cope through some of the tough times. What I loved most is that it is not clinical nature, but right to life and very private, but also trying to share to all us readers that this is LIFE.
ENJOY!
