Alzheimer: Helping Your Loved One In The Alzheimer's Journey

"Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease or another type of dementia can be a long, stressful, and intensely emotional journey. As there is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s or dementia, it is often your caregiving and support that makes the biggest difference to your loved one’s quality of life. That is a remarkable gift.

If your loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, be prepared for anything — it can be a shocking disease. This book walks you through what can happen and prepares you for the challenges you may face on this four- to eight-year journey. It provides practical tips, coping tools for caring for those with Alzheimer’s, and conversation starters for those difficult talks you may have with your loved one and family members.

What is more, reading this book will help you learn how to communicate with Alzheimer’s sufferers, handle disagreements so they result in positive outcomes, and understand the stages and behaviors of Alzheimer’s disease. You are able to know a way to look at this journey a bit differently, not as a list of challenges, but as a way to expand your heart and transform the way you treat others."
