The Life of an Incredible Woman: A Story Worth Telling

Eugeria's Take

Nancy's books were an instant favorite for Team Eugeria. What a great idea presented in a stylish way! The questions are varied, without taboos, and each life phase is covered. Letting our elderly loved ones to tell their stories and reminisce is invaluable!

Eugeria replied:

Every time we complete a column section, Mother's eyes light up as she recalls her memories. Her happiness at sharing this with me is as nourishing for her as it is for me. It's her story, her life, her words that will remain on paper.

Great tool! WOW, it creates great exchanges!

The Life of an Incredible Woman: A Story Worth Telling

I bought this book for a friend, who has always loved to write and writes very well. She was also a woman who loved to read. She has Alzheimer's disease. I had informed her husband of my intention to give it to her, and he thought it was a good idea. He told me that my friend no longer had the perseverance for intellectual effort that she used to have (she's in stage 3). After starting to write the first few pages, she never touched it again... I went to visit her twice afterwards and she confirmed that she hadn't continued and would do so after I'd left... I had the impression she was telling me this to please me... Her partner tells me he'll try to remind her to start again... etc. I think this approach is probably more appropriate for someone in the early stages of the disease? I can't remind her every time I visit, because she might get upset about it...

Hello, thank you for this beautiful document. It allows my sister and I to retrace the life of our beloved mother who is 100 years old, soon to be 101. Very well structured, the steps, the questions serve as a starting point.
