An enduring story of family love and Alzheimer's disease embedded in the rich Jamaican Culture. Amancia recently learns that her beloved Grandma has Alzheimer's disease. Initially, she is extremely saddened and thinks of Grandma as she once was. The Jamaican name of Amanicia means unconditional love and is the underlying message of this story. This story uses a problem solving approach to better understand behaviors associated with the disease and how to make the necessary adaptations. Amancia and Mother help to build upon Grandma's preserved abilities such as singing hymns and keeping her Bible close. Grandma is treated with respect and love. In addition, Grandma's dog Calypso, shows his faithful and protective nature when he senses something is wrong with Grandma. Calypso becomes an important companion to Grandma. The love and happiness in the final scene is palpable. Author notes are included for parents and teachers to assist them in enhancing the learning experience for the child.
