All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton sat down for an in-depth interview with Max Sherman the author of the book "Releasing the Butterfly: A Love Affair in Four Acts". Max Sherman, with a notable career in public service and academia, has served as a Texas State Senator, President of West Texas State University, and Dean of the LBJ School of Public Affairs. His leadership roles also include President of the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Vice President of the Harry S Truman Scholarship Foundation. Active on several boards, including the Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Sherman is also the author of "Barbara Jordan: Speaking the Truth with Eloquent Thunder". About "Releasing the Butterfly: A Love Affair in Four Acts": Three years since its initial release, Releasing the Butterfly: A Love Affair In Four Acts, authored by former Texas State Senator Max Sherman and his wife, Gene Alice, continues to make a profound impact on individuals and families dealing with Alzheimer's disease. The book, which has been celebrated for its raw and honest depiction of life as a caregiver for someone with Alzheimer's, brings a much-needed focus to the often-overlooked experiences of caregivers. Since its publication, Releasing the Butterfly has become more than a book; it's evolved into a movement of awareness and empathy for the millions of Alzheimer's caregivers worldwide. It tells the captivating story of Max and Gene Alice, who met as teenagers in a Texas Panhandle jail, forging a bond over shared interests in literature and the arts. Raised in humble, blue-collar families, their relationship matured in the 1950s, evolving into a partnership of mutual respect and equality. This decades-long love story, rooted in a strong foundation of education and faith, faces its greatest challenge when Gene Alice is diagnosed with Alzheimer's. The narrative beautifully captures their enduring love and resilience, showing how deep bonds can withstand even the most heartrending trials. The book has received acclaim from healthcare professionals, Alzheimer's advocacy groups, and readers alike. It has sparked conversations about the critical role of caregivers in the journey of Alzheimer's, leading to greater recognition and resources for those in this challenging role.

“I'm a lawyer by trade, politician by practice, and an academic by accident.” These are the musings of the remarkable, and I have to say, charming, Max Sherman. In Episode 89, we interviewed a young and energetic 89 years old, Max Sherman. Max's life has been significantly influenced by women. But one in particular has shaped who he is today. In 1953 Max was among 4 high school boys conducting a church service at a local jail when he first laid eyes on a Gene Alice, who was there with her fold up field organ. And their love affair still thrives to this day... In 2002 Gene Alice started noticing that something was different and soon after was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Through the inevitable progression of the disease Max and Gene Alice's journey together is now chronicled in the beautiful and poignant memoir, “Releasing the Butterfly: A Love Affair in Four Acts”. It's a caregiver's story and journey. An honest, heart wrenching and insightful look at not only the disease but of a bond that could not be broken. Max shares many of the insights he has gained as a caregiver, and thoughts on how to maintain connection even while grieving the losses of the fading abilities of a spouse living with Alzheimer's. Max boasts a rather formidable body of work which includes: Texas State Senator, President of West Texas State University, and Dean of the LBJ School of Public Affairs. His leadership roles also include President of the National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Vice President of the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation. AND recently he was honored as an 80 over 80 recipients. Don and I had the best conversation chatting with the author of this ode to a 70 year love-affair that will warm your heart and make you want to fall in love all over again! Support the Show.
