This short allegory provides comfort, insight, and validation for caregivers and relatives of loved ones with Alzheimer's. A Bird Named Payn illustrates how to process the complex emotions that arise when you walk through this painful journey. The insidious disease forces friends and family members to grieve the loss of someone who is still alive. Sharing her experience with her beloved Mother-in-law, Ann, Bernock reveals the love, the loss, and the permission to embrace your pain, reminding you that you're not alone.
