What critics are saying

"DANCING WITH ALZHEIMER'S IS A WARM, COMPASSIONATE ACCOUNT OF THE AUTHOR'S EXPERIENCES CARING FOR AN ALZHEIMER'S PATIENT IN HER DECLINE; HUMOR AND PATHOS WALK HAND IN HAND IN THIS JOURNEY TO OBLIVION."

Diane Marcou, Author

An emotional novel of lost love and painful memories.

—Kirkus Discoveries

"Dancing with Alzheimer's takes you from the onset of the disease to its
>final stages ... sometimes understanding ... sometimes angry but mostly
>thanking God you don't have it."

Barbara Harrington, Author of Give Him Back To God, Laff Lines, and Nothing Is Forever, Darling

Ms. Attias has carefully woven her words into threads of memories taking
the reader through the development and progress of a difficult but
loving relationship between a caretaker and one stricken with
Alzheimer's disease. She has successfully and warmly captured the
trapped essence of the former dancer and Parisian performer, Elizabeth
Bromley.

What a book!  A great book by a great writer!

When I introduced Dolores to "Mr. Williams" as a possible
companion for his grandmother, I never imagined that Dolores would end up
writing a book about her experiences. And what a book! Since it features a victim of Alzheimers, it is tragic, of course, but Dolores sprinkles it with frivolity. That is, her subject does.
