This is the moving, courageous story of a wife who bravely helps her husband cope with Alzheimer’s disease. In fall 2007, Bebe Bralley begins to notice that her husband, Bill, is acting strange. First it’s just little things losing the keys again and again, forgetting where he’s kept his hairbrush for decades. Then he’s hiding the keys all over the house, stuffing the hairbrushes into his slippers (where burglars won’t find them), and flying into a rage when he can’t start the truck with his pocket knife. Soon he can’t bathe himself or tell his home from a hotel. Doctors confirm Bebe’s worst fears Bill is already in the late stages of Alzheimer’s. When Bill wakes up one night and attacks Bebe, thinking her an intruder, she accepts that she can no longer give him the care he needs. They move Bill to a nursing home, where Bebe visits him almost daily for the next three years, until his death. In this poignant account, Bebe records the details of these visits, from the time she first noticed the changes in Bill until the end. Something in the Way is a wife’s honest, unflinching memoir about the final journey with her husband of 58 years.
