Short Story
the long goodbye
the long goodbye is a poignant story about love, loss, and resilience in the face of Alzheimer’s. Jo Anne finds solace in her daily routines, especially her morning walks and visits to her husband, Joe, whose memory is slipping away. A spontaneous trip to Las Vegas offers a fleeting sense of freedom, but her heart remains tethered to the life she’s built with Joe. As she navigates the heartbreak of his decline, she discovers unexpected strength and support from old friends and new experiences. A deeply emotional journey, the long goodbye captures the quiet beauty of devotion and the painful yet inevitable path to letting go.
