After enduring over half a decade of living with an undiagnosed behavioral dementia, difficulties with the use of his hands ultimately resulted in a diagnosis of motor neuron disease. Subsequently, a few months later, he was diagnosed with established frontotemporal dementia.

A series of failures by the NHS and social services left his children and wife alone to care for P to the best of their abilities, having already endured years of living under the shadow of his undiagnosed dementia.

The book showcases the remarkable resilience of love, emerging even in the most challenging and dire circumstances. It demonstrates that love can resurface, stronger and more profound than ever before, in the face of terminal diagnoses.

The book unfolds with a captivating backdrop of music, carefully selected to resonate with each stage of P's tragic demise. Each chapter flows seamlessly, creating a harmonious narrative that captures the essence of his journey.
