When her mother was diagnosed with dementia, Lesa, along with her father and siblings, embarked on the isolating, challenging, and love-fueled journey of caregiving.
Caregiving is not for the faint of heart, especially when you choose to live in the same home as your ailing parent. But author Lesa Brand pens an incredibly immersive and heartfelt novel about her family's journey as caregivers for her mother.
From page one, Lesa offers readers a close, comfortable, and confiding narrative that makes them feel like part of the family. Sit with her and her sister at Jason's Deli as they talk over plans to move their parents closer to Lesa and build a home for the three of them to live in together. Walk back in time and meet Lesa's dad as a young husband and father, popping corn on the stove for movie nights and rousing the family for church on Sundays. Travel with Lesa through her parents' move and the beginning of care, then weather the storm with her as dementia transformed her mother.
Utterly vulnerable and incredibly poignant, Hello: My Name Is CHUCK is the story of one family and how they managed the care for their matriarch, relying on foundational strengths each member brought to the table. It is a story of multi-generational living, grace, and the power love has to heal us.
This book provides a true story of that journey with one family, infused with grace, love, and laughter for healing the caregivers. It will make you laugh, cry, hug loved ones, and reflect on your own life and strengths.
