Fallen Leaves: Our Life With Alzheimer's And Lewy Body Disease
Fallen Leaves was written to inform the reader about Lewy Body Disease. It will take you through the land of no return. Lewy Bodies are small crystals in the brain. You must have a magnifying lens to find them. They can live about seven years from the time it starts until death.
Melba Williams Fisher wrote Fallen Leaves from the notes she took while her husband was tragically experiencing these diseases. She wants to inform readers about Lewy Body Disease since there isnt much known about it.
Melbas husbands leaf weathered many strong storms. It amazed the doctors. Then one big storm came, and his leaf fell. The wind blew it toward heaven.
We are all leaves from Gods Tree of Life. Some leaves hang on longer while others curl up and fall off.
