originated from the premise that there are endless amazing stories and memories in our culture that may never see the light of day. Stories that will simply be lost in the oceanic waves of passing time if they are not gathered and shared like the precious gems that they are. Stories of heroism, love, wisdom, spirituality, humor and adventure. “Alzheimer’s Caregiver; The Choice of Love” by Eileen Haight is one such story.

Alzheimer’s Caregiver (http://www.alzheimer-caregiver.com/)

- The Travel Log of an Amazing Journey

This story is about two ordinary people who discover that the love and happiness of their lives together was not lost by the "mere intrusion” of Alzheimer disease or even death. 　

Eileen intimately shares the story of her time spent being the primary caregiver for her beloved Joe who had contracted Alzheimer‘s disease. She invites us 　to come along on the journey. She introduces us to her spiritual guide who assists her through this process with his amazing wisdom. In this book Eileen shares his great wisdom and it’s effect with us.

As the story unfolds and challenges arise, we notice there is a very bright and guiding wisdom lighting Eileen’s path through extremely challenging times, and we follow along.

　Fear, anger, and sorrow, as well as, doubt and discomfort, hover around her; endlessly looking for an unlocked door. But for the most part, her intention turns to the words and wisdom instruction of her spiritual guide as she moves onward gracefully.

Joe travels through the early, middle; and late stages of his "journey” through Alzheimer‘s Disease to eventually find himself in a nursing home, which in his view appears to be snazzy resort! With great humor he asks Eileen, "Can we afford this?"

We meet Eileen and Joe's family members who travel with us on the journey, ready and willing to help, carrying with them the burden of their memories; and then, there is 　Ruth.

Ruth; whose husband is a patient at the nursing home, appears and joins us as a fellow passenger on this journey. Ruth is burdened with the baggage of fear, anger sorrow and doubt. When Eileen drives to visit Joe, she invites Ruth to ride with her. 　There is a picture of Eileen's spiritual guide on the dashboard of her car and Ruth asks bluntly, "Who's that guy!"

This initiates an ongoing conversation between Eileen and Ruth. Ruth asks all the questions we have been wanting to ask Eileen about her spiritual guide and his teachings. The conversation is a startling and profound sharing of many large and small miracles, resulting in a positive change in Ruth's view of life and her experiences.

There are other folks in our journey that step in to help along the way, so Eileen is given space to dance and sing with Joe. They laugh 　together, draw pictures together, and feel their love grow beyond mere consolation. They learn to “Be Love” rather than look for love.

And they talked!

They talked? Yes, they talked of many things, and Eileen shares with us the secrets of how she learned to talk to Joe even when it became impossible for Joe to put a sentence together.  Even though Joe at times, did not seem to be the Joe she married, and even though he mostly spoke in a language all his own, she discovered he was still there and she could communicate with him heart to heart.  They talked about death and Eileen read to him from books her spiritual guide had written on the subject. Before Joe died, he profoundly understood that "We are more than what we look like, and the part of us that is Real does not ever die."

When Joe's time came he was prepared, and he slipped away from this world as softly and easefully as one can fall into a deep dreamless sleep. His face was beautifully calm and even young looking. The room was filled with a profound “Brightness“. As Joe passed over he seemed to be dissolving into divine light and a tangible sense of universal love filled the space.

Several months later, Eileen traveled half way around the world to a remote island in Fiji to spend time with her spiritual guide who she refers to as; Spiritual Master. She asks him a question about death and dying and shares the content of his response in the epilogue.

　She also shares with us a second trip she made to Fiji in July, 2008 when she was given a private audience with her Spiritual Master three months before he transitioned from this realm.

　We invite you to take this journey through Eileen's book and discover that even when one is faced with difficulty, one can "Choose to be Happy”.

"Alzheimer's Caregiver The Choice of Love" is Eileen Haight's personal and heartfelt account of her profound spiritual process while assisting her husband Joe through Alzheimer's Disease, and the death and dying process.

While under the guidance of her Spiritual Teacher Adi Da Samraj and Adidam; Eileen shares great wisdom and insight for any caregiver who is assisting an Alzheimer's patient; or anyone who is approaching the end of their life's journey. This book is filled with great love, compassion, hope, faith and wisdom for anyone who is coping with loss and going through this process with a loved one.
