Publisher's Synopsis

After over half a decade of living under an undiagnosed behavioural dementia, problems with the use of P's hands leads to a diagnosis of Motor Neuron Disease and then, some months later, a diagnosis of established Frontotemporal Dementia. 

A series of failures by the NHS and Social Services leaves his children and wife alone to care for P to the best of their abilities, having already lived under the shadow of his undiagnosed dementia for years. 

The book shows love can resurface in the strangest, most difficult of circumstances and reappear stronger and deeper than life before P's terminal diagnoses. 

Each chapter of the book flows with a backdrop of music relevant at each stage of P's horrendous demise.
