A Return Journey is the result of Sue Petrovski's personal journals during her mother's 8-year illness and her correspondence with other caregivers who were kind enough to share their innermost feelings and lessons learned.
Most caregivers travel the journey of Alzheimer's disease frightened and alone -- forced to make difficult, guilt-ridden decisions along the entire way. All too often they come away from the experience unable to forgive themselves for what they feel they were unable to provide.
In A Return Journey, Sue Petrovski looks back upon the challenges she faced. What choices were right, what choices were wrong, and how can she now help those whose journey is just beginning. She clearly and wisely explains that in Alzheimer's there are no "right" ways, no "best" decisions, no "perfect" answers.
