“It took great effort for Maureen to feel good about herself, and some people in her life took advantage of that.”
Scott M. Rose, We Danced: Our Story of Love and Dementia

“In the early eighties, Maureen started to bargain with God to try and turn her marriage around. She went with a neighbor girlfriend to get baptized and then asked God to heal her marriage. Surprisingly, her husband came home early from a trip that night. They talked for hours, and she told herself that God had helped them turn a corner. It did not last a month.”
Scott M. Rose, We Danced: Our Story of Love and Dementia

“Very few people in her life felt toxic enough to cut off completely. She did not hesitate to cut off people who were bad for her children. But to cut off people who were bad for herself, she had to first muster the self-confidence and realization that she deserved something better.”
Scott M. Rose, We Danced: Our Story of Love and Dementia
