For many, Alzheimer's is a mystery disease affecting old people. Christine Boden was 46 when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and Who Will I Be When I Die?, is the story of her emotional, physical and spiritual journey in the three years since then.
Christine is living with the stages of Alzheimer's and provides a unique insight into how it feels to be gradually losing ability to undertake tasks most of us take for granted. Her story is remarkable because of the vigor with which she is undertaking this latest battle in her life and the purpose and meaning she derives from her Christian spirituality. Christine's approach to health and well-being makes this book a must for Alzheimer's sufferers and their families.
