<b>A writing couple searches for answers when Alzheimer''s causes one of them to lose the place where stories come from ¿ memory.</b><br/><br/>At the age of fifty-three, Tony walks away from a life of journalism and into an unknown future. June is forty-eight, a writer and teacher, and over the following decade watches as her husband changes ¿ in interests, goals, and behaviour ¿ until Tony has a fall, ending the life they had known. <br/><br/>A diagnosis is seven years away, yet the signs of Alzheimer¿s are all around. A suitcase Tony packs for a trip is jammed with four umbrellas, a visual symbol of cognitive looping. But how far back do these signs go? The couple starts probing the past and finding answers. This is not an old person¿s disease.
