Nora Scruggs McCall was a deeply religious woman, who never lost her faith that God was always in control, and that everything would work out, as it should. Even as her dementia progressed, she continued working as a volunteer grandmother. She also continued attending church services at Mount Calvary Baptist Church every weeknight and on Sundays.
As Nora goes into decline, the task of taking care of her falls to her second eldest daughter Gerry. With power of attorney, Gerry must try and unite her siblings John, Jessie, Jeannie, and Carolyn, in agreeing how to handle their mother’s declining health, and eventually how to settle her estate.
A Journey Through Dementia/Alzheimer’s Disease is Gerry’s story as she struggles to take care of her mother and resolve her divided family’s conflicts. It is a story that will undoubtedly resonate with anyone who has cared for a family member suffering from Alzheimer’s or Dementia.
Geraldine McCall was born and raised in Pompano Beach, FL and now resides in Ft. Lauderdale. Now retired after a career as a systems administrator and software instructor at the Florida Department of Transportation, she now enjoys annual get-togethers with members of her class from Blanche Ely High Previously she has authored three other books: Conflict of Emotions, Winston Dressler, and Unequally Yoked.
