When a beloved elderly relative begins showing signs of dementia, what starts as a struggle for caregiving soon descends into a vicious power struggle over money, control, and legacy. As tensions simmer beneath the surface and family wounds open, the truth becomes harder to face–and even harder to fight for. With intimate access and raw honesty, this book expands on the critically acclaimed film, Edith+Eddie, revealing what was left unsaid on screen. As executive producer, Cher propelled the original film all the way to the Academy Awards. This book is a harrowing but essential journey into the realities of: • Financial exploitation of the elderly • The emotional toll of caregiving • Race, privilege, and trauma • Rich vs Poor • Guardianship struggles This is more than a story of a family in crisis. It's a wake-up call — and a call to action. If you have experienced a family member with any form of dementia and want to help us help others facing this disease, this powerful memoir deserves your consideration.
