ALZHEIMER’S/AGING/PSYCHIC AWARENESS


Elsie Nurmi rides to her Minnesota school in a prairie wagon speaking no English. Yet she becomes a U.S. Protocol Officer escorting dignitaries such as Astronaut Frank Borman and Edward Marcus (Neiman-Marcus) abroad. She meets heads of state, a pope, views moon launches, and preps presidential visits. Yet when diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, she begins her most dreaded—and transcendent—journey.


Elsie at Ebb Tide tells the story of a woman whose soul transcends disease. She fails all cognitive tests, yet her spirit-soul appears to be actively aware. One afternoon with shocking lucidity Elsie cries out, “I can’t stop him. He won’t listen.”  When asked who, she answers, “My brother.” The next day, her daughter Barbara learns this brother died that very afternoon. … How could she have known?


Traveling down untested roads, Barbara begins to explore a different language—one of intuition, mental telepathy, inner listening, and love—encountering a new world that continues until her mother’s death … and beyond.


Elsie at Ebb Tide is a story of love and a willingness

to explore the deepest communication possible:

soul to soul.



What Caregivers Say…

I am captivated by a totally new way of communicating with a loved one who has dementia.  Enlightening, funny, sad, amazing, thought-provoking, it makes me wish I had handled my own mother's dementia differently.   — Diane Beattie Tidd.  Missouri


You changed my whole way of thinking.  I realized it wasn’t about how I thought my father should behave.  It was about letting him be engaged in that part of his journey in the way it needed to happen, for him.  — Wanaree Tanner, Illinois



Barbara Erakko, award-winning author, has also written: Silence: Making the Journey to Inner Quiet, and Silent Dwellers: Embracing the Solitary Life
