Alzheimer’s Today Features ‘Conversations with My Mother’
Alzheimer’s Today, the official magazine of the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, featured Conversations with My Mother in its March 2025 issue. Author Ronald-Stéphane Gilbert was interviewed in The Book Corner spotlight:
“Ronald-Stéphane Gilbert lived in Ohio and traveled widely as a global communications specialist. He experienced his mother’s encroaching Alzheimer’s condition on visits he made several times a year. What he learned is that family members should strive to recognize and cherish the remaining fragments of their loved one’s personality, even, and perhaps especially, as they steadily diminish. That message is the central theme behind his first novel, Conversations with My Mother: A Novel of Dementia on the Maine Coast. ‘The person doesn’t entirely vanish,’ he said.
