Current, mistaken identity , borrow…
Fred has a chance for a fresh start at 82 years of age, when he is able to substitute himself for Bernard at Wattle River Nursing Home.
Just how did this opportunity arise? A few staff members think it’s dementia effects when Fred tries to tell them he’s not Bernard. (Although “Bernard” seems to have had a personality transplant!)
A tale of grief, loneliness, forgiveness, chosen family, and persistence.
The “dance of life is unscripted. Remembering that life can have missteps, learn to make these missteps
…more a part of life’s dance.”
THOUGHTS:
Great debut! A bright spot! Hopeful at times. A feel good story.
Dynamic characters with an inspiring, uplifting storyline.
An enlightening story about the elderly.
This will definitely be in my top reads for 2025!
What a tribute to the author’s Grandfather! (less)
