Coles When God Creates a Musician: A Caregiver's Story at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

Tony had pretty much lived his life on his own terms but now, in his eighties, things were much more challenging. "Getting old isn't for sissies." he often said. He needed help and needed it fast as his world was rapidly changing due to his illness and age. Help would come, but from a most unlikely source.
"When God Creates a Musician" is a true story about a caregiving journey that Tony, a renowned musician, and his son-in-law would take over a five-year period as they fought the ravages of the elder's dementia. It is a memoir about highs and lows, successes and failures, hope and despair and, most importantly, about courage and love. While the story ends the way all stories about dementia end, it is a unique account about an epidemic-sized problem facing countless families, which is set against the backdrop of South Carolina's Lowcountry. It might make you laugh, cry, smile or sigh, but hopefully it will give you an insight into the tough challenges that millions of professional and lay caregivers face each day as well as give you an acute appreciation for the tremendous job they do.
