Letters to Josephine

By Jo Ann Chernushek

I miss my beautiful mother each and every day since October 27, 2007. I remember all the lessons she taught me: to live, to laugh every day, that "it's not how long you live but how well." She lost her childhood sweetheart to cancer then remarried and did well financially but still had some family issues. Instead of living comfortably into her old age she came down with Alzheimer's disease, deteriorated rapidly and died of a heart attack which was mercifully swift.

I am qualified to write this book because I lived it. I had to feel helpless because I could not save my beautiful mother from the ravages of the disease of Alzheimer's. I also like to communicate with people who may be going through something similar.

I live in Mansfield, CT - the home of the UCONN women's basketball team. I am married and have no children except Dougan, my pug and Marilyn Monroe, my cairn terrier. I read a lot, garden and write when I can.
