—Former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor
“There is a sweetness in the light Judith Fox finds that?softens a brutally unique and all too common experience.?Ms. Fox has made the story about love and devotion when it?might easily be expected to be about a more tragic and angry?vision. But the tough stuff is lurking around every corner...”
—Arthur Ollman, Director, School of Art, Design,?and Art History at San Diego State University

A poignant?and beautiful portrait of a man with Alzheimer’s as seen?through the loving lens and words of his wife and care-partner,?I Still?Do: Loving and Living With Alzheimer’s puts a?human face in front of the statistics, exploring the disease?through Fox’s intimate photographs and poetic writing.?While the details of I Still Do are personal and unique, this?deeply candid story of illness, aging, partnership, and loving?is universal.
