LAS VEGAS—In a new book, Dementia: You Don’t Know Unless You Know, adult star Amber Chase, published under her legal name as author Lillian Amber Rachel Getchell, lifts the curtain on the reality of dementia care, offering both practical guidance and “unflinching truth for families, caregivers and professionals alike,” a spokesperson said.
“Unlike clinical manuals or single-perspective memoirs, Dementia: You Don’t Know Unless You Know weaves together story, science and soul. Drawing from her background in CNA training, years in fitness and yoga, and the lived experience of caring for her father, Getchell captures dementia in all its complexity—its relentless unpredictability, its impact on relationships, and the small, sacred moments of grace that shine through even in the hardest hours,” the spokesperson added.
“People think dementia is just forgetting. They don’t see the midnight falls, the infections that come out of nowhere, the toll it takes on a marriage, or the way it rewires the caregiver’s nervous system. Silence is part of the problem—and this book is my refusal to let misunderstanding have the last word,” Chase, aka Getchell, added.
