Synopsis

Don’t Walk Away is a powerful and uplifting exploration of living with dementia, told from two perspectives in two different ways. One is the written account and insights of the author, Marilyn Raichle, founder of The Art of Alzheimer’s and Executive Director of Maude’s Awards for Innovation in Alzheimer’s Care. Marilyn's mother, Jean McFee Raichle, like many people in her family, lived with Alzheimer’s in her 80’s. The other perspective is that of Jean herself, who, through her vibrant and intriguing paintings, tells a story of creativity and community, one that has already touched and inspired thousands of families facing similar challenges. Indeed, a TV news report about Jean and Marilyn’s life together won an Emmy Award in 2013, illustrated by Jean’s fascinating artwork. The insights gained from Marilyn and Jean's journey together are part of a revolution in how those with dementia are supported and nurtured during this phase of life. This beautifully designed book skillfully weaves stories and insights from the author with rich colors and shapes from her mother's artwork, inspiring the reader to look at artistic creation in new ways and to find new avenues for embracing those with dementia.
