I first came across Marianne Talbot because she was writing a blog published on the SAGA website in which she recounted in real time her experience of caring for her mother, a sufferer from Alzheimer’s Disease. To begin with she was caring for her at home though towards the end of her mother’s life, she went into residential care.
The blogs were very popular and have been turned into a book, Keeping Mum.
You can find out more about Marianne Talbot, especially her work as a philosophy lecturer at Oxford, and buy her book, Keeping Mum, on her website.
