Description

Although sex among seniors is generally not discussed openly, elderly couples affected by dementia frequently maintain physical intimacy, love, and romance. Sex, Intimacy, Love, and Romance in Elderly and Alzheimers considers the topic through the narrative of two women whose parents are experiencing dementia. Annie and Sherry, both in their sixties and retired or semiretired, meet by chance at Lakewood Nursing Home in Wichita, Kansas. Their parents are both residents, and the commonalities between the ladies lead them to develop a close friendship. Together they share knowledge and experiences regarding elderly people and nursing home residents with dementia. They compile a series of fascinating stories about love, intimacy, romance, and sexual activity among seniors and Alzheimers patients. Whats more, Annie and Sherry have begun to deal with several serious problems and hurdles often faced by the elderly, further complicating their consideration of elderly issues. Based on true stories and actual experiences, this novel explores intimate relationships and experiences of elderly people, particularly those dealing with dementia.
