Summary: HOPE AND UNDERSTANDING
Comment: LARRY ROSE has Alzheimer's disease. It is little comfort to him that he is among the millions of others strickened with this debilitating disease. What should be of comfort to the reader is that this warm, witty, and intelligent man is willing to bare his soul and share his experiences so that we can understand more about this disease. In his touching book, SHOW ME THE WAY TO GO HOME, Rose gives us a brief glimpse into a window of life that few understand. Rose presents each stage with the freshness of someone who knows not what the future holds. Breathtaking in its innocence, Rose's words hold special meaning to anyone who knows someone suffering from Alzheimer's disease. The book opens with a penetrating look at the "Man that was"---a brilliant electrical engineer with a thirst for knowledge and a passion for life. Rose's son, Jeff, has written a beautiful introduction that describes his joyful memories of growing up with his dad---and the deep love that exists between them. Rose's son also express his frusteration with a disease and his sadness at its striking such a wonderful and young (54) man as his father. This book is written with the goal of giving the reader a deeper understanding of the disease's affects from the inside. A perspective of someone who knows of what he speaks. SHOW ME THE WAY TO GO HOME, is an outstanding, provocative read. Rose has not only found a way to tell us about the disease, he's also found a way to make us comprehend and empathize with sufferers around the world without once asking for pity.

Summary: AN INSPIRATION
Comment: I have heard it said that "He has achieved succes who has lived well, laughed often and loved much". Larry Rose, the author of "Show me the way to go home" has achieved success. Rose will leave this world a better place than he found it by giving us this book. It is a book that cannot be put down until you have read the last page then leaves us wanting to learn more. Rose has given us the best he has to give and has never lacked the appreciation of others that have helped him along his journey through Alzheimer's disease. His life should be an inspiration to all of us. Through his book, Rose has gained the respect of intelligent people and the love of all who have been fortunate to read it. Rose is fighting this disease with the grace of a true hero. His story in an inspiration: his memory will be a benediction. I am looking forward to reading his next book. Kathy Smith RN

Summary: Don't go through early diagnosis alone...
Comment: My mother was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's Disease at fifty years. I found Larry Rose's account of what was happening to be a wonderful way to relate to her in a way that she was unable to describe to me. This book will be a "hard to put down" account of daily life for those facing similar experiences along the way through this dibilitating illness that robs so much. Larry finds a positive light to shine on purpose in life and to keep on living. He is truly a courageous story that should not be missed. A big five star read with a human approach.
