‘An honest and thoughtful memoir. Moving but, ultimately, full of hope. Beautiful.’ KATE MOSSE
‘Superb. Love & Care is a book about the unbreakable bonds of family, the cruelty of passing time and a love that never dies.‘ TONY PARSONS
‘A beautiful, intimate story of love and understanding – candid and funny. This is a lyrical memoir of hope and forgiveness.’ RAYNOR WINN, author of The Salt Path
*
Shaun is finally free of responsibilities to anyone but himself; single, with two grown up daughters, he is just embarking on a new life in a new country when he gets a call to say his father is dying.
His mother has Parkinson’s Dementia and is in a care home. Shaun faces a stark choice: should he give up his new-found freedom, or turn his back on the woman he’d fought so hard to protect, not least from his own father?
Shaun’s mother had loved and cared for her son all her life. Could he now do the same for her?
‘A heart-warming, heart-wrenching, and beautifully humane account of loving and caring.‘ NICCI GERRARD, novelist and author of What Dementia Teaches Us About Love
‘An insightful tale of care . . . this book needed to be written.’ JO GOOD, BBC Radio London
‘A vital subject, a really strong voice and, hurrah, humour makes this absorbing reading.’ CAROLINE RAPHAEL, Radio 4’s Book at Bedtime
‘An eye-opening – and at times jaw dropping – account that will make you weep with its tenderness and compassion . . . A highly readable tale of redemption and a celebration of love’s many hues.‘ PAUL BLEZARD, Love Reading
