Still Alice

Greetings fellow book bloggers…. So as the debate between Alice’s husband and their kids over the idea to move Alice to New York with her husband rages on, Alice finds herself lost about what they’re talking about but recognizes that it’s a very intense conversation. The oldest daughter reveals that she is pregnant with twins and would like her mother to be around to see them. Alice is brightened by the news that the dark haired woman with the pretty smile is going to have a baby, and hope she will be able to see the baby and hold it. It’s easy to want to condemn the husband for wanting to move Alice to New York but he is only in his 50’s and this has been a dream job for him. For couples struggling with onset early dementia this can be a challenge as one may have so many things they still want to do, I can’t imagine this is an easy decision for Alice’s husband and the guilt he must be feeling about wanting to move her away. So many emotions in the book at this point, hopefully in the next chapter we get the final decision…. stay tuned fellow book bloggers.

  1. I am really enjoying your book so far and being able to get a break down on what is going on! I hope for the daughters sake that she is able to stay close to the daughter and her soon to be born twins! Can`t wait to find out what happens next.

  2. Hi Leslie, This sounds like a very interesting novel. From what you wrote this seems like a very emotionally driven novel. It seems like Alice and her family have many current stressors happening at this current point in the novel. I hope to hear more about what happens next to Alice and her family.
