This book is devoted to those who care for loved ones with dementia, especially spouses, and the difficult and often heart-wrenching decisions that they are often confronted with. In writing this novel, I would like to acknowledge some of the people who have given their precious time in providing insightful critiques and encouragement. They have been an invaluable source to the writer in the development of this novel. First and foremost – to the Syracuse Writer"s Roundtable for their comments and suggestions; to the Central New York chapter of the Romance Writers of America for their timely critiques and informative workshops. Special thanks to Martin Meiss and Carolyn Ostrander who have been there from the beginning, and to my wife Linda for putting up with me for the last four years!
