Christine Tirman

I have worked in the medical field for 50 years, caring for the needs of patients and their families. When my mother was diagnosed with Dementia, my outlet and saving grace was writing. I started a blog about our journey, which spanned many years, and decided to put our journey to print.

There are millions of stories out there just waiting to be heard. Our journey is just one of them and what a story it is! The first book chronicles the first three years (2011-2013) "In the Beginning."

The rest of the story will be out later this year (2014-2020) "The Final Chapters."

Our story is raw, real and moving. It also deals with situations like how to cope, how to survive, how to advocate, how to keep your sanity and how to navigate the world of confusion and despair that Dementia throws at you and your loved ones.

My hope is that you will be inspired and uplifted by those of us that walked the same path as you...
