this book is chock full of information on the realities of dealing with alzheimer's disease and other memory impairment disorders. it is clearly written and uses examples of real-time situations to highlight situations that can arise and suggestions on how to deal with them. highly recommend it for care providers and others in the lives of those with memory impairment disorders. required reading for adult children to gain an appreciation for the pressures on the care provider(s) for a parent.

This is a really good book. I kept borrowing it from the library and kept getting fined for having it too long, so I thought I'd save myself time and trouble (and money, too) and buy it. I've come across alot of the same things that are mentioned in the book. This book is helpful to give the caregiver a different perspective on AD and it's nice to know that you're not alone in your struggles. It also reminds you that others have it worse than you do. I recommend this book for anyone who has elderly relatives, with the increased incidence of AD the chances are pretty good/bad that a relative will suffer from it. I think it's best to be prepared for the worst before it gets here. That way you'd have a start on what care would be required and how much you'll have to change your life to accomadate your aging relatives.

As the caregiver (daughter-in-law) of a 90 year old patient with dementia (vascular/multi-infact type), I found this book to be profoundly helpful in dealing with the day-to-day activities of caregiving. In short, I felt as if the authors had spent several weeks in our home and then written the book just for us! This is a MUST READ for any caregiver of a patient with Alzheimer's or other dementias.

This is one of the first books I read and I found it quite informative. I find myself reaching for this one over and over again.

For anyone that is a part or full time caregiver for an elderly person with some form of dementia or alzheimers this book is a must read. I was a caregiver for my mother and another elderly relative with dementia. This book made all the difference in the world to me.
