Publisher's Summary

What happens to YOU when the person you love slowly unravels from a chronic, incurable disease?

With raw honesty, piercing insight and deep love, Slow Loss chronicles a woman's emotional journey as her husband succumbs to Parkinson's and dementia, and she evolves from wife to caregiver to widow.

Heartbreaking and laced with dark humor, Kelly's poignant memoir unveils the realities of caregiving, from being crushed by anger and fear to making hard decisions with surprising outcomes. It is brave, fresh, inspirational, and encouraging with no toxic positivity.

Slow Loss speaks to anyone facing the gradual loss of a loved one—or recovering from a recent loss. It offers hard-earned wisdom, a beacon of hope, and so much love.

Let Lois Kelly's unflinching account be your lifeline.
