Hazel's Journey: A Personal Experience of Alzheimer's

From LibraryThing.com: Sue Pieters-Hawke has written this biography about her mother Hazel Hawke. Hazel is a well loved and respected Australian, best known for her marriage to former Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke. She went through their very public divorce with silence and dignity gaining the sympathy and respect of Australian people from all sides of the political spectrum.

In her own right she supported many social issues - and became a leading spokesperson in the areas of community work, women's and children's issues, music and the arts. So it was not surprising that she went public with her fight with Alzheimer's disease. The news of Hazel having Alzheimer's was broken to the Australian public in the ABC documentary series "Australian Story" in 2003. This was followed by this book Hazel's Journey.
