When writing "The Nurse," these characters lived in my heart. Now, Sandra's extraordinary narration brings them to life in ways I never imagined possible. Her voice carries every tear, laugh, and tender moment of Jill and Jim's love story. #Truelove www.audible.com/pd/B0DSCNRPF...

For those navigating memory changes - your stories are precious treasures waiting to be shared. Start small: a memory over tea, flip through photos, or record a quick voice note. Every story, every piece of wisdom matters deeply to those who love you.
