STILL A BIT WONKY: A record of the lived experience of Dementia: A record of the lived experience of Dementia: by Pat Simmons digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A daughter's tribute.

A father's legacy.

A love that memory loss couldn't erase.

When Jack Irving Edwards was diagnosed with dementia, he began filling his days and his diaries with sketches, lotto numbers, tender notes about his beloved wife Babs, and glimpses into a mind navigating change.

In Still a Bit Wonky his daughter Pat curates these diary entries and pairs them with her own reflections, creating a moving portrait of a man whose humour, warmth and optimism shone through, even as words sometimes slipped away. Heartbreaking and heart-warming in equal measure, Jack's story offers a rare and uplifting view of dementia - one where joy, connection, and love remain, even when memories fade.
