Summary:  "The so-called "Golden Years." What if you are slowly losing your memories and your motor skills? Or what if you are the devastated witness as your partner struggles with dementia? Lewy Body Disease is a form of dementia second only to Alzheimer's in numbers, yet many doctors and almost no lay people have ever heard its name. Julie and Ken Sobol, life partners as well as writing partners. Caught up in the frightening and fatal fog of Lewy Body Disease, they started writing this book together. As Ken's disease progresses and his voice dwindles, Julie continues the narration, sharing her sadness, frustration, and attempts to find the best care for her husband. Their chronicling of the ravages wrought by LBD is intelligent, insightful, enlightening, and often humorous. It is at heart a love story. Julie Macfie Sobol is a musician and painter. As Ken's neurological illness worsened, the couple was forced to find new ways to live and write together. Julie, now a grandmother of six, continues to make her home in Toronto. Ken Sobol was a television writer. He also authored several children's books, and Julie and Ken began writing together in the 1980s, publishing two books together about Lake Erie. Ken and Julie collaborated on their last project until Ken died in 2010."--Provided by publisher. Genre:  Memoirs. Other authors:  Sobol, Ken.
