Grammy’s Yarns is a small, mom-and-pop publishing company established by Kenneth and Eileen Hill in 2013. Their goal is to publish “home-spun stories for the close-knit family,” books to inspire, entertain, teach and encourage children and adults alike. Loving a parent with Alzheimer’s is the company’s first release. Several children’s books are in the works. "Who’s in Mama’s Chair?" is a testimon
y of a loving daughter and a victorious Christian life. This book well chronicles the variable emotions, trials, joys, and sorrows in caring for a parent with Alzheimer’s Disease. Having seen this disease work its slow relentless demise in my own mother, Eileen eloquently and personally portrays her experiences along this road. As physician, friend, and fellow believer in Christ, I find this work a poetic encouragement for families caring for those with Alzheimer’s disease and a portrait of the triumphant outcome that can occur if they walk the path with God. We rejoice in God’s faithfulness through the journey, His wonderful promises of peace, joy in the midst of sadness, and life eternal with a loving God. – Daniel J. Sastic, MD, FAAFP, Medical Director, Yukon Flats Health Center
As I read "Who’s in Mama’s Chair?" I was often moved to tears as I remembered my friends, Ruth and Eileen, and felt the emotional pain and frustration each new day brought for you both while experiencing the difficulties brought on with Alzheimer’s. Having seen many patients and their families go through this process, it brought back many memories for me. The insight Eileen gained and is able to share through this book gives guidance, encouragement, and common sense ways to deal with situations one might encounter during this journey with a loved one. – Marie Allcorn, RN, BSN, former Director of Nursing at Friends Home
I love that each chair brings you to Jesus! No matter what stage you are in, you need Jesus there. – Mindy L. Laury, BSW, Director of Alzheimer's and Dementia, Sunrise Senior Living
