Leigh's Review of the book:
In An Evolution of Love, Marie Sykes and her daughter Michelle share the story of how Frontotemporal Dementia hit their home. When Marie's husband was diagnosed their lives were forever changed by a disease that they had never even heard of before. I knew nothing about it either and found this book to be a great resource for those looking for an introduction, or for ways to cope. An Evolution of Love is written straight from Marie's heart, and she has delivered an easy-to-read and engaging book that I highly recommend for those whose lives are touched by FTD, and for those interested in the resilience of a family.
