Hebrews 13:5 God said, I will never leave you nor forsake you.
CHELTENHAM, MD, May 08, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Statistics show that 5.3 million Americans suffer from Alzheimer's Diseas. Yet, many are still unaware of the devastating effects it has on family members and relative caring for them. I Choose You Again is a personal testimony about the day and life of caring for one diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. In this book, Valentine- Barber tells the poignant story of how she and her husband journeyed through the world of Alzheimer's.
The author paints a vivid picture of the challenges, highs and lows and triumphs. Despite educating herself about the disease, talking to specialists and praying, nothing could have prepared Nikey for the road she and her husband were about to travel. Nevertheless, she found strength and hope in God who brought her through her darkest hours.
There's nothing more heartbreaking than when a loved one has no recollection of memories shared with those closest to them. But despite her husband's loss of memory, Nikey still has an undying love for him and given the chance, she would still choose him again.
This book expresses my purest of feelings as I encountered each stage of the disease," said Nikey. The experience has taught me that it is okay to cry and express my feelings without feeling that during the tough times I was not connected to God."
The author had an encouraging word for individuals who are caring for loved ones with Alzheimer's. She said: "God understands your pain. He said I will never leave you nor forsake you. You may have to shift from reality to their world in order to communicate with them, especially when they have lost their memory of you but God is able to sustain you.
"I Choose You Again" is a powerful resource that will help individuals recognize the warning signs and stages of Alzheimer's. It will also encourage and inspire loved ones to lean, believe and trust in God regardless of how hard it gets.
