As she says "Never give up on yourself, you only get one chance at life, LIVE IT, don’t give up".
Instead of taking the dementia as an end she took on new challenges, and started ticking off all the bucket list experiences, she had wanted to do from skydiving to photography.
Becoming a best selling author was not actually even on this list, but here she talks of her 3rd and final book, "One Last Thing :
How to live with the end in Mind" and how she came to writing and managed to write three books and why this will be her last.
