A daughter tells the story of her mother's
change from being a strong, loving, proud woman,
to a person bereft of smiles, laughter, and
dignity as Alzheimer took its hold.
Kathe lives on a 7,000-foot western Montana
mountain where she and her husband have raised
national champion spotted asses. Three grown children,
11 grandchildren, and two greats round out the
herd. Kathe has contributed to newspapers and national
magazines on Alzheimer's disease, and her stories
are found on many ezines. She is currently featured
in Chicken Soup for the Grandparent's Soul,
Chicken Soup to Inspire the Body and Soul,
and People Who Make a Difference.
