About the AuthorI had the pain and the privilege of caring for my mother from the beginning diagnosis of Alzheimer’s through eighteen years, until her death. Because of the close bond my mother and I shared, I was blessed to see the bright spots along the difficult path of caring for her through the progression of the disease. I want to share what I have learned to inspire and lighten the load of others going through this challenging experience. Press:“Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, ‘Adapting to Alzheimer’s: Support for When Your Parent Becomes Your Child' is thoroughly ‘reader friendly’ from beginning to end and will prove to be an invaluable, practical, and comforting read for anyone charged with (or anticipating) having to care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s. Simply stated, ‘Adapting to Alzheimer’s’ should be a part of every community library collection.” --Midwest Book Review |
