Tangles : a story about Alzheimer's, my mother, and me / Sarah Leavitt.

Leavitt, Sarah, 1969- (author,, artist.).

Summary:

"What do you do when your outspoken, passionate, and quick-witted mother starts fading into a forgetful, fearful woman? In this graphic memoir, the author reveals how Alzheimer's disease transformed her mother, and her family, forever. In spare black-and-white drawings accompanied by prose, the author shares her family's journey through a harrowing range of emotions - shock, denial, hope, anger, frustration - all the while learning to cope, and managing to find moments of happiness. This book confronts the complexity of Alzheimer's disease, and gradually opens a knot of moments, memories, and dreams to reveal a bond between a mother and a daughter that will never come apart"--Page 4 of cover.
