Reason no. 352...

Yesterday I finished my book: Elizabeth is missing. It was definitely a good piece of fiction. It definitely highlighted what living with dementia is like. The reader sees a constant stream of thoughts. She'll be mid-conversation with someone and forget what they're talking about. We see the confusion she feels. Yet we also see how people respond to dementia in the family. We see people who respond well and some who definitely don't handle dementia very well. It definitely requires a lot of patience to work with those with dementia. At the same time of highlighting what living with dementia is like, we also see a 60 year old mystery being solved. 
It was a really good read. Reason no. 352 :)
