George and Grace Goodrich looked forward to his retirement, and enjoying the rest of their lives together. He arranges with the travel agency for tickets to go to Paris, France two months after his retirement luncheon to make up for the honeymoon they couldn't afford when they married.
One day George mistakes Grace's tube of anti-wrinkle cream for a tube of toothpaste. Often, he repeats himself. Suddenly, he decides to move out of their bedroom. Then the mail brings travel tickets...not to fly to Paris, but to see the Hot-air Balloon Festival in Alberquerque, New Mexico, his wife is upset and puzzled.
Grace realizes George's behavoir and actions need to be examined. The doctor advises her to place him in a gated facility for his own safety.
Since George has no memory of Linda or Grace he meets and falls in love with another patient. Grace must face the question of staying married to a man who has forgotten who she is. and has fallen in love with another woman. What will she do?
Inspired by the death of her husband the author has written this book to demonstrate to the reader signs of the slow progression of dimentia in the hope as you read you will recognize when medical attention is needed; thereby prolonging the onset of this disease; thereby giving you more time to spend with your loved ones.
