Caroline Court is a retired journalism/English teacher who turned her attention to freelance writing following her mother's Alzheimer's diagnosis. Her first two books, Mum, Alzheimer's and Me: Staying Alive and Rescuing Park Ranger Billie have helped readers cope with issues ranging from compassionate care and patient advocacy to grief and recovery. Court’s publications challenge common assumptions about skilled care and offer sometimes painful, sometimes funny realities of coping with Alzheimer's disease while seeking a renewed enthusiasm for life.  Court's third book, My Most Amazing Year: 1965-1966 A Diary  is a sometimes hilarious and other times poignant look at teenage angst from the point of view of a 17-year-old in America's very transitional 1960's.
