The Long Road Home

By Pamela Horner

Betty is exhausted, confused, and frightened. She has no idea how long she has been lost and wandering--now that she has finally managed to escape. But where is she now, and more importantly, how can she find someone to help her get back home? After finally evading her captor who has emotionally tortured her months on end, Betty seeks help from a man unknown to her, but well-known and well-loved by the strangers around her. When he questions her about her past, however, she is easily frustrated by the black holes in the fabric of her memory. Calm and kind, and oddly knowledgeable about her, the man helps her through the long journey of understanding where she came from, who she is, and where she is going. Alzheimer's Disease shows no discrimination, no mercy, nor does it limit its boundaries in its victims and their loved ones. This story reflects one family--a typical, everyday family--who finds itself thrown into an alternate universe and struggles to hold together and just...live. The Long Road Home was written as a tribute, a guide, and a memoir to those beautiful souls who lose their way once they are within the grip of this disease, and to their caretakers, and to give, perhaps, a glimpse of hope that the way will be made clear once again.
