Still Alice the movie

I am so happy that my friend Lisa  Genova's book, Still Alice is being made into a movie.  filming begins in February and Julianne Moore has been tapped to play Alice.  I am so excited  for Lisa.  If you haven't read Still Alice, you need to TODAY!  It is a fiction book about a young Harvard professor that is diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Lisa and I did not know each other at the time she wrote this book, but that is my life.  It was eerily scary to read for me, but it is a fabulous book.  Congratulations to my friend!

That's great news! It is indeed a wonderful depiction of what an Alzheimer's patient goes though. I can't wait to see the movie.
