Book Review: "Like Crazy" By Dan Matthews

 


I'm at this point in my own life with two narc parents, both up in age, and being the only one left on this side of the country to tend to them both with three kids in extreme poverty.

It's heartbreaking to deal with personality trait disorders like narcissism, schizophrenia, sociopaths, psychopaths, bipolar disorders, etc.

This is one such personal discussion between Dan and his mother Perry whose cognitive abilities are on the decline and it's now showing as she's rushed to the hospital for evaluation.

During this process we see both sides of the fence, the discussions, the triumphs, the tragedies, and the right to life.

While for me it's no laughing matter other reviewers noted it was humorous and developed into an interesting blossoming romance for Dan and his partner only without his mom's presence.

All in all not a bad read as it highlights the importance of mental health, treatment, and hospice care.

Thank you to bibliotheca for this e-read in exchange for this review.
