Trying to Remember is a stirring and intimate memoir recounting one family’s struggle with the debilitating effects of Alzheimer’s on a remarkable woman, Betty Nicholas, and the hope that comes from choosing to remember. Its poetry is at once accessible and elegant, creating a moving experience for the reader. This is the story of what Betty remembered, what she forgot, and what those around her remember for her. Trying to Remember is her story of unwavering hope-and theirs.
