I'll Sing Again Tomorrow: A Memoir

by Rene Terry Mucci

Overview

What do you do when a person you love starts forgetting dates, missing reminders, or not even recognizing who you are? And that person is your own beloved mother? You take a deep breath and begin seeking those moments of memory to keep her the way she was while loving her for the way she is.

 

This is what Rene Terry Mucci did after her spirited, strong, and independent Moma was diagnosed with dementia. I'll Sing Again Tomorrow is the memoir of a daughter as she and her mother navigate their journey with dementia, caregiving, and their shifting relationship. This lively book of mini-essays and photos offers snapshots of both heartbreaking situations and hilarious moments with tenderness, honesty, warmth, and grace.

 

This is a must-read if you're a family caregiver of someone with dementia-and it is an acknowledgment of how exhausting it can be to serve as their connection to life. But I'll Sing Again also lovingly reassures that you're not alone in your tears, grief, laughter, and faith, and that you will both sing again.
