All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Darlene Fuchs as guest to the show.   About Darlene Fuchs: Darlene Fuchs's writing is shaped by grief and the kind of love that doesn't let go. Her memoir, Get In The Boat, began as a vow to her father and became a raw, clear-eyed account of staying when everything else falls away. She gives voice to the ache behind closed doors—and to the quiet kind of love that keeps showing up, even when no one sees it.   About "Get In The Boat":   Richard didn't just watch his wife disappear—he lived it. Dementia stripped Gail down memory by memory, until she became a ghost inside the body he still kissed goodnight. He stayed. Through the blank stares, the violent confusion, the heartbreak on repeat. Then came the gut punch no one sees coming: their great-grandson.   A brain tumor. Terminal.    Another slow-motion goodbye. And just as the grief settled, COVID slammed the door shut. No visitors. No help. Just Richard—grief rotting in one room, and a slow death unraveling in the other.   Get In The Boat is not a soft-focus memoir. It's raw. It's real. It's what love looks like when memory is gone, hope is thin, and staying feels like breaking.   Because sometimes love looks like hell. And you walk through it anyway.
