“Writing with remarkable candor, Peter Barnet brings a new and unsettling focus to this moving account of his battle against his wife’s Alzheimer’s. We learn that those at risk from this terrible malady are not just those directly afflicted, but their caregiving spouses as well. Lacing his narrative with insight and humor, Barnet does not shy from expressing his private thoughts and feelings as he relates this couple’s daunting struggle. Losing Cissie is at once a love story, a primer on how to manage spousal care and a warning of its perils. It should be required reading for the familes of the millions of Alzheimer victims. “ Barry Lando, friend, editor and retired 60 Minutes Producer “If you don’t cry, learn to. If you don’t laugh, learn to. Tears and laughter are the best tools to manage stress and win through” Peter Barnet
