Where did you get your insight on alzheimer's? I wish "Hide the Elephant" had been written when I was dealing with my mother's alzheimer's.

Hi Leslie,
I confess to not having been personally affected by Alzheimer's, though I have friends who have been affected. I also did online research/case studies.
After that, I relied on my imagination and resources as a writer.
Thanks for your question. Its always humbling when a Reader has actually lived what is fiction for me. hope my book was positive in some way.
Onwards and upwards.

No need to respond. Just wanted to tell you I think it is really awesome that you are in touch with your readers and pay attention to their interests. Big part of the reason I followed you was because of your investment in your audience not just your fascinating story lines. Keep up the good work! Apparently I need a question mark?
