Knickers In The Fridge: Alzheimer's is no laughing matter ... or is it? Read Molly's heart-warming story and decide for yourself
Molly lives in a small village near The Lizard in Cornwall. On a moonlit night she sets off on a “walkabout” to go … who knows where? She invites herself to tea with complete strangers, and continues to present puzzling situations to all around her. What is a fanhawser? Who brawns the lean? Why are there cubs in the dick? Where did the woollid come from?
When Molly becomes less confident about living on her own, her family move in with her - four humans plus an entire menagerie. Molly’s delight in her new companions, and the hilarious antics of all concerned, ensure that her joie de vivre continues to sparkle.
Running alongside Molly's story is that of "Pob" in the USA, who is leading her daughter and son-in-law a merry dance of her own. Emails whiz back and forth across the Atlantic, and a mutual support group is set up. Molly's and Pob's stories reach to countries across the world ... America, Australia and South Africa to name but a few.
Jane Grierson, Molly’s daughter, presents a book that should be read not only by everyone who has concerns about dementia, but by all who like a joyful romp through an engaging story about real people.
