His Brain Won't Reboot Ernestina Connolly

This book was written to educate the public about the medical condition called Primary Progressive Aphasia ("PPA") and what we can do to encourage more research to find a cure. This book is for anyone who's experiencing the frustration and anxiety of the disease and what Dan, aka "Sweetiepie" and I went through before we found out about this rare condition, my whole experience about how PPA affected Dan, and what we went through changed our lives forever. I want everyone to know about this condition so that I can help others deal with the frustration and emotional rollercoaster you go through when someone you love is diagnosed with PPA. It includes information about what age group can get it, what signs to look for when you think your loved one has it, what you can do to help your loved one with this condition, the resources available to you, how it affected our lives, and what I did to overcome the frustration that came with knowing my husband, best friend, and lover has Aphasia. Here's hoping my experiences will help you and your family to understand and cope.
