ما أحببته في هذا الكتاب هو ارتكازه على مراجعة متأنية للأدبيات الطبية وتقديمه بأسلوب يتيح للجميع فهمه. وما أحببته على وجه الخصوص أنه كتاب عظيم يعطي الأمل؛ فيعطينا الأمل بأنه لا يتعين علينا قضاء آخر سنوات حياتنا ونحن لا نميز بين أسماء أطفالنا أو حتى لا نعرفها، ولا نميز بين أقرب أصدقائنا أو أزواجنا، ونصبح في نهاية المطاف عالة بالكامل على شخص آخر يتولى العناية بكل متطلباتنا. يقدم هذا الكتاب ما هو أكثر من مجرد أمل في هزيمة الخرف، فهو يتشارك الأمل في تقديم حياة خالدة. في خاتمة الكتاب، وبعد مشاركته رحلة السيدة “ديل” مع مرض ألزهايمر معنا، يروي الدكتور فيرمان قصة زوج السيدة “ديل” قبل وفاتها بعدة سنوات.
