Tears In God's Bottle: Reflections On Alzheimer's Caregiving is the moving story of Wayne Ewing and his wife of 40 years, Ann Margaret Wentz Ewing. Ann fell victim to Alzheimer's, a progressive disease that destroys the brain and the personality/identity of the afflicted. The role of a caregiver to someone with this relentless affliction is unique and painful, and the need for understanding the demands of their responsibility are enormous. Tears In God's Bottle is a poetic, spiritual, and inspirational work of valued information for both the caregiver and the patient. It is both an important revelation for those who share the tragedy that is Alzheimer's, and a deeply moving, highly recommended testament of love and the human spirit for others.

Like a modern day biblical story. Ewing gives hope and encouragement and perspective to Alzheimer's caregiving. Using scripture and personal perspectives a story of increasing faith and love emerges out of the devastation of Alzheimer's disease. This book is a love story, a story of faith and most of all a story of hope. Whether you are a person of faith or a person who is struggling with the why of Alzheimer's, this book is a MUST read.

Why this book is relatively obscure is a mystery to me. Perhaps the size of the publisher had a part to play in this. This book should be read by anyone coping with a loved one afflicted with this horrible nightmare. Read the book.
