Whatever It Takes To Keep From Losing My Wife To Alzheimer´s | Sammie Marsalli | Nonfiction; Health and Wellness (B)
Fourth in the series: Preventing Her Shutdown From Alzheimer’s.
When my wife was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, our lives changed forever. What followed was not a medical case study, but the real-life journey of a husband determined to keep the woman he loved engaged, connected, and part of her family for as long as possible. Whatever It Takes is a deeply personal account of life as a 24/7 Alzheimer’s home caregiver. Through real experiences, challenges, setbacks, and small victories, I share the practical and emotional realities of caring for a loved one whose world is gradually changing. This book is not about finding perfect answers. It is about persistence, adaptation, and refusing to give up when confronted with the daily challenges of Alzheimer’s. It is the story of one caregiver’s commitment to do whatever it takes to preserve dignity, interaction, and meaningful connection. Written from the heart, this book offers understanding, encouragement, and hope to caregivers, family members, and anyone affected by Alzheimer’s disease. I like this version because it introduces the book as a **personal caregiving journey**, which fits the title *Whatever It Takes* and complements the more specialized focus of your other books.

Empress & Soldier | Marian L Thorpe | Fantasy, Historical (N) (I) (F)
A boy of the night-time streets. A girl of libraries and learning. Druisius, the son of a merchant, is sixteen when an order from his father that he can neither forgive nor forget drives him from home and into the danger and intrigue of the military. Eudekia, a scholar’s daughter, educated and dutiful, is not meant to be a prince’s bride. A decade after a first, brief meeting, their lives intersect again. When a delegation arrives from the lost West, asking Eudekia for sanctuary for a princess and support for a desperate war, Druisius is assigned to guard them. In the span of a few weeks, a young captain will capture the hearts of both Empress and soldier in very different ways, offering a future neither could have foreseen.
