She forgot herself — First by choice, Later by destiny.

Resilience is a poignant and deeply human memoir, a three-generation collaboration that preserves the life, legacy, and truths of Rachel, a mother and grandmother whose long-held wish was to write her own story.

When dementia silenced that voice, her daughter took on the deeply personal task of bringing her life to the page, an act of love, remembrance, and rediscovery. Joined by a granddaughter who helped shape these memories into a cohesive narrative, Resilience became more than a memoir.

Rachel’s journey unfolds from her spirited childhood to the quiet strength of her later years, a life shaped by duty and the subtle sacrifices made in the name of love. As dementia slowly takes hold, her fading memories illuminate how identity, love, and legacy remain intertwined across generations.
