Alzheimer’s doesn’t just change the person diagnosed.
It changes everyone who loves them.
For eleven years, Joshua Pettit walked beside his mother, Betty, through every stage of Alzheimer’s — from the first quiet memory slips to full-time caregiving and final goodbyes.
He didn’t study it in a classroom.
He lived it.
In The 7 Stages of Alzheimer’s Disease: Walking Betty Home, you’ll discover what most families desperately search for after a diagnosis:
• What each stage actually looks like in real life
• What’s happening in the brain — explained simply
• What to expect next (so you’re not constantly blindsided)
• Practical caregiving guidance for every stage
• Emotional reassurance from someone who has been there
This is not a cold medical manual.
It’s a roadmap written by a son who walked the entire journey.
If you’re caring for a parent…
If you’re watching someone slowly change…
If you feel exhausted, confused, or afraid of what’s ahead…
This book will help you understand the stages —
and help you find strength in the middle of them.
Because dementia may steal memory.
But it cannot erase love.
And sometimes the greatest act of devotion
is simply walking someone home.
