Summary:  "I know where I'm going. I'm still myself. I just can't remember things as well as I once did." Restaurateur, magazine publisher, celebrity chef, and nationally known lifestyle maven, Barbara "B." Smith is struggling at 64 with a tag she never expected to add to that string: Alzheimer's patient. She's not alone. Every 67 seconds someone newly develops it, and millions of lives are affected by its aftershocks. B. and her husband, Dan Gasby unstintingly share their unfolding story. Crafted in short chapters that interweave their narrative with practical and helpful advice, readers learn about dealing with Alzheimer's day-to-day challenges: the family realities and tensions, ways of coping, coming research that may tip the scale, as well lessons learned along the way. At its heart, though, Before I Forget is a love story: illuminating a love of family, life, and hope"--Provided by publisher. Other authors:  Gasby, Dan. Shnayerson, Michael.
