Mary's Story
I still live in the Dallas area. I am a GG (alias Gorgeous Grandma) to two beautiful grand children.
My greatest love and God given talent is my ability to put my feelings in print. In 2005 I wrote the words to one song published by a Christian group (Forgiven) out of Arizona.The song is titled IT WAS NEVER ENOUGH. I am the mother to the most beautiful, intelligent, human being on Earth and her name is Mindy. When Mindy was about 12 I went back to school and I decided to get into the nursing field and absolutely loved it. I put so much of my heart into it for 11 years that I became totally burned out. After that, I fell into a wonderful selling job for a lucrative investigation company.

g to the horrible disease of Alzheimer's. It was a long journey for both of us until she passed in March of 2015. A year after she was gone, I kept a promise I made to her and to myself. I wrote the book FADING IMAGE. It is a story that encompasses all that is good with a mother and daughter during good times and bad times while dealing with a disease. A disease there is no cure for...none. I evolved as a better daughter but also a much better person dealing with all aspects of caring for my mom. Today I do speaking engagements and still write. I have a children's book in the making called TEACUPS AND RADISHES. My next book will be on forgiveness. If you have a loved one dealing with dementia or Alzheimer's or you know a caregiver; please find my book at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble online. You can also contact me concerning the book on the web at maryraybirdwell and on FB.
Much love...
Mary
