Produktbeschreibung
In this gripping autobiography, I share my experience of holding on when everyone else let go. With every ounce of strength, I gripped tight, silently screaming on the inside, unable to surrender or relinquish my right to live my own life. Despite the choices of those around me, I had none of my own. My sanity teetered on the edge between a frenzied, rabid dog and an existence of task-oriented groundhog days. I didn't recognize myself, yet the merry-go-round kept turning, and I couldn't step off. I had already witnessed more than my eyes should have seen, but leaving wasn't an option. The reason why? She devoted her life to protecting me from bullies, silently absorbing their scorn. Now the tables have turned, and it's my turn to protect her. No matter the cost, I vowed to love her, keep her safe, and give her my undivided attention and lifelong support. We're in this together, no matter how long it takes.
Autorenporträt
Juli Flintoff is an English artist from West Yorkshire. Initially studying drama, she later obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree from Sunderland University. For several years, Juli was a successful community arts development worker facilitating workshops throughout the Bradford, Calderdale, Leeds, Wakefield and Halifax areas. After exhibiting five large banners at the Bradfords International youth event attended by delegates from all over the world, she became involved with projects for young offenders. This led her to train as a prison officer and later a drugs dog handler. For the past 13 years, she has dedicated her life to caring for her elderly parents. Blame, Shame and Guilt is a prequel to Juli's first publication aptly named The Secret Back Door-an inspiring book depicting the struggles of living with dementia.
