Tanya A. Taibl
Elizabeth’s Writing Corner is pleased to present our latest author, Tanya A. Taibl! Her memoir, The Words She Left Behind: How Alzheimer’s Changed Our Story, is a touching account about family, Alzheimer’s, and forgiveness. Coming out officially on November 8, this book has already won several nationally acclaimed awards and been featured on a variety of podcasts.
Take a look at this opening excerpt:
“She didn’t know it, but her death sentence came in late July 2024. We all knew something was very wrong with my aunt Toni—she was unraveling. Toni became the worst possible version of herself, day by day, and sometimes, moment by moment. I never told her, but on a quick Saturday morning phone call with my aunt’s neurologist, she was diagnosed with the most common form of dementia—Alzheimer’s disease. This diagnosis changed everything, including the hate I carried for her for almost two decades.”
If you love memoirs, are looking for personal accounts of dementia, or just enjoy picking up well-written and gripping reads from newly published authors, you won’t want to miss this book.
