A candid account of one family's twenty-year struggle with Alzheimer's Disease. The author's wife (who has been totally disabled for a number of years) has been and continues to be cared for at their house by her husband with some part-time helpers. Although the story is told from a Christian point of view, it will be useful to all whose lives are touched by this disease which destroys brains. With so much practical experience gained in the "furnace of affliction," the writer has something significant to offer to the increasing number of families who have come under this dark cloud and are making this long journey into the night.
