Description
Losing My Mind: An Intimate Look at Life with Alzheimer's by Thomas DeBaggio is a deeply personal account of the author's experience with early-onset Alzheimer's disease. At fifty-eight, DeBaggio reflects on his life and the rapid decline of his cognitive abilities, which he describes as "self-destructive" and "silently hollowing the brain". Through this memoir, DeBaggio offers a unique insight into the effects of Alzheimer's on both the individual and their loved ones. His narrative is marked by moments of introspection, self-awareness, and resilience, making for a thought-provoking read. This book is a testament to the human spirit's capacity to survive and thrive in the face of adversity, despite the devastating impact of a debilitating disease.
