Nothing Forgotten: Where Love Lingers
At some time in our life, we will feel the sadness of cognitive impairment or memory loss. It may be our own or that of someone we love. We need stories to shape our sadness in heart-healing ways. This is one of those stories. In it, we follow "the woman who loved a thousand things" through a rich life in her home, in a small town on the march, through cognitive decline, and a move into assisted living. The woman finds new companions, feels her loss, and dreams a hidden growth.
"{Nothing Forgotten} is an exquisite, brilliantly writeen and tender picture book for adults - and maybe children who are ready, when a family member is experiencing memory loss... I can't think of a book that has moved me this much in a very long time."
- Sheree Fitch, storyteller, poet, educator, and member of the Order of Canada
