Walks through Heaven with Dad: A Young Man’s Experience with Lewy Body Dementia

Daniel Woytowich’s father was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia while he was still in college. This memoir tells the story of the diagnosis of, acceptance of, and journey through the terrible illness that is dementia. Daniel hopes that his family’s experience can help others, especially young people, who are dealing with loved ones that have terminal illnesses. It is the story of how a young man watched his father’s life unravel in gradual progression, his coming to terms with the fact that his relationship with his father would be changed forever, and how he eventually came to the realization that no illness, no matter how debilitating, can ever touch what resides deep within all of us, and especially how it can never touch the everlasting bond of father and son.
