 My " Go to " book. June 28, 2008
I am a caregiver, and this is very helpful.
It is a great reference book.
It helps to know I am not the only one dealing with these issues.
And that some of the things happening are a completely natural part of the aging process.

This book has been quite a blessing for those times when I need to look something up regarding this illness. I know that I'll find just the help I need and great ideas to make life easier when a family member is dealing with this. It's so great to have a reference book handy that seems to have all the answers I need. I am most grateful for this resource.
Must Read for Caregivers March 19, 2008
If you have a family member with Alzheimers you must read this. It explains what and sometimes why Alzheimers patients act like they do, and how difficult it can be to care for them. Even if you are not a caregiver this will help understand the stresses caused by having a family member with Alzheimers. Also gives good advice on how to deal with difficult circumstances that will arise.

My sisters and I come into contact with many people dealing with the devastating disease of Alzheimer's. This book is one that we often recommend. It is important that those with Alzheimer's disease keep active and feel that they are still useful. This book has many ideas for appropriate activites. Mary ... www.alzawareness.com ....

 Helpful only to a degree...... January 20, 2008
This book does give insight into the disease the experience your loved one is going through. However, it lacks in practical information as the disease progresses.
