The Daddy Chronicles: A 31 Day Devotional of Lessons and Experiences from a Son's Vantage Point, Taught by a Dad Dealing with Alzheimers

Overview

Daddy Chronicles is a monthly, daily devotional of themed stories, experiences and lessons about a son dealing with a father that has Alzheimer's and dementia and a teenage son. Three generations under one roof. Daddy Chronicles provides an on-scene account of my experience of becoming ""full circle"" as a parent and father. A birds eye view from being on top of the hill ( middle life) and being able to look to my left or down the hill, watching and aiding my son to climb up and looking to my right, down the hill and witnessing my Dad's decline and trying to help him manage but all the while realizing that my life was heading where he now was and fully understanding the circle of life. I was nally at the point that all the lessons, experiences and advice that my dad imparted to me, now all made sense, and it was these same lessons, experiences and advice that I now was trying to share with Tay, my son. The true de nition of full circle indeed! There are thirty-one stories that are aimed to be a daily devotion, along with thirty-one bible verses that correspond with that day's devotion. There are also thirty-one songs that have YouTube addresses attached that coincide with each story and theme. Some of these songs were my dad's favorite; the others I have chosen because of their lyrical content and how they undergird that day's devotion. I have also created a ""courage card"" for each day. The card is that day's lesson condensed into a short reminder that can be carried in a pocket, purse wallet or used as a bookmark. Hopefully, this card will help with the ""courage"" to carry out and integrate that day's message into your daily routine. Lastly, I have also included a song written and performed by me entitled ""Half Man My Daddy Was."" Lyrics inspired by lessons taught to me by my dad. It is my hope and prayer that the stories and lessons of this book will encourage the hearts of those who are dealing with a parent, especially a father with dementia or Alzheimer's and give spiritual hope to help them continue giving the care that at times is so difficult to give.
