Davidson's account is unflinching. Although her husband goes through many changes and becomes increasingly childlike, she still finds many reasons to love him as himself, as he is at the time, as well as support and keep his mind as active as she can. The narrative takes the form of a daily diary, and Davidson tracks the subtle changes and reactions by friends and family members. She makes a good case for home care of those with Alzheimer's, because truly no one could love her husband as much as she does; but she is also realistic about the level of care required at the end stages.
