How much would I give to still be a wife and not a carer?
Steph Booth watches helplessly as her husband succumbs to Alzheimer’s. Diagnosed in 2004, Tony’s memory is fading fast, and most days he doesn’t remember who she is.
For quite a time Steph assumed that some of the increasing strangeness of Tony’s behaviour – leaving things in peculiar places or forgetting what she had just told him – was normal. But there was more to it.
Alzheimer’s is a cruel disease, and it has robbed Tony and Steph of the life they knew. In this honest and moving account, at times sad and funny too, Steph details the darker days when she can no longer cope, and her fears of losing Tony as well as her own identity in the process. There are happier moments too, remembering the people they once were, Tony’s antics that had everyone entertained, and the timeless bond that united them.
Borne out of her much-lovedIrish Timescolumn,Married to Alzheimer’sis a poignant account of a life and love torn apart by dementia.
