The first part of this story was printed in the National Ataxia Foundations quarterly magazine called Generations, which appeared in their April 2006 issue. I received so much positive input from doctors, nurses, home health aids, caregivers, and nursing home administrators and family that it encouraged me to write the middle and end results of being a caregiver. It is my hope that this book will help promote stem cell research and give hope to the many caregivers across the country that have one of the hardest jobs imaginable, trying to cope with brain ataxia.
