Just Love Me reveals the thoughts and emotions of a woman struggling with a suddenly unmanageable life; numerous hospitalizations, suicide attempts, everyday turmoil, and finally, the arduous search for an accurate diagnosis. By looking at the youthful, vital, attractive women before them, for years doctors never suspected the culprit to be Alzheimer's disease (AD). This account is unique in that most books on the subject of Alzheimer's are written by a care partner or medical professional. Lee's book joins only a handful of other accounts written by person's living with early-stage dementia. Just Love Me should be required reading for anyone who has any contact with a person afflicted with AD, whether by birth, marriage, friendship, or a professional relationship. Jeanne Lee's very personal, frank description of her life experiences before, approaching, and during the early stages of AD enables readers to better understand the disease from the inside out; a view not often seen by non-sufferers. By getting inside the mind of the author and experiencing with her the worries and frustrations that constantly torment her, the symptoms of AD become less enigmatic for the reader.
