NEW RELEASE! Who the Hell Are You? Alzheimer’s the Wrong Diagnosis by Virginia Wright

I did not care about the gift, the cake, or balloons. I just wanted to hear “Happy Birthday, my darling,” from my mother.

Who the Hell Are You? Alzheimer’s the Wrong Diagnosis, is the true story of my mother’s battle with Hydrocephalus. Initially diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease, it was only when her condition worsened and we sought a second opinion, that the true extent of her illness was revealed.

What were her symptoms?
Why was a “telltale” sign overlooked?
Could YOUR loved one be suffering from Hydrocephalus?

I hope that by sharing our experience, other families will be spared the heartbreak of losing a loved one to this frequently misunderstood disease. Unlike Alzheimer’s when diagnosed early, Hydrocephalus is treatable with a good chance of recovery.

About Dennis Higgins 

Distant relative of Davy Crockett…World traveler.
As a native of Chicago, Illinois, I have always possessed a romance with things of the past that are gone but not forgotten. I now live in the suburbs with my lovely wife, our dog and a couple of birds.

The Writer’s Apprentice is the 8th published book of  Author Dennis Higgins.

Check out my other releases on my website: http://www.timepilgrims.com/

The Writer’s Apprentice can be purchased here:

https://www.amazon.com/Writers-Apprentice-Dennis-Higgins-ebook/dp/B01N7MYA4U

Description: 

“Suddenly she felt something like a beckoning to the inner pantry door within the den. It was as if it called to her.”

Indie author Maren Brown is overjoyed when she receives a letter from her literary idol inviting her to meet with him to discuss a collaboration. Jack R. Croft has made millions from his time-travel novels and Maren is amazed at how realistic his books are. However, the truth is stranger than fiction, and there is a LOT more to Jack’s proposition than it initially seems.

Who is Jack Croft and what is his connection to Maren?

Why is his housekeeper so frosty towards her?

Can Maren set aside her skepticism about what she is being asked to do, lay ghosts to rest, and find a resolution to a love story that spans generations?

The writer’s apprentice is a classy, genre-busting time-travel story with an element of mystery which invites the reader to question whether true love ever really fades.
