The Velvet Bridge began as a means for a daughter to cope with her mother’s aging and encroaching Alzheimer’s. As the chapters unfold, they reveal a hurricane of tears, guilt, fear, loss, wonder, and laughter. Readers will follow the journey in real time. They will also visit the past and witness the formation of a special bond through stories told to jog a failing memory. In the end, it is a love story—a tribute to the complex and unique relationship of a mother and a daughter.
