Publisher's Summary

A daughter's newfound love. When Lisa Hirsch found out her mother, Ruth, had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, her love, appreciation, and caring for her mother was transformed. To Lisa's surprise, it has brought her and Ruth closer together than they've ever been.

My Mom My Hero tells the story of this mother-daughter relationship through a series of entries from Lisa's internationally popular blog. Ultimately, this is an uplifting and inspirational audiobook for anyone who's going through the difficult and often lonely ordeal of caring for a loved one who suffers from this devastating illness.
