Susie and Me Days

Purchase Susie and Me Days

Written as seen and experienced through the eyes of Susan Garbett, who cared for her father diagnosed with both Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia, her story takes you from the earliest signs through the full journey, complete with the pitfalls, obstacles, stresses, challenges, joys and upsets that any caregiver can expect and should anticipate. Learn from her experiences and gain insight from the solutions. Listen for the questions you need to ask, and appreciate your family member for who they still are. Susie and Me Days is as much a personal story of love, tradition and honor as it is a textbook and guide for all caregivers. Author: Susan Garbett

"It offers hope for continued connections and engagement for the person with dementia by using what remains, by going to where the person is, and by sharing time, attention, and love. Susie and Me Days is truly a great read, but it’s also an impressive guide to others dealing with the illness." Teepa Snow - Dementia Care Specialist

Product Features:

What we like best about this product: Though Susie and Me Days is about one daughter’s experience caring for her father with Alzheimer’s, it is also your story, offering answers and insights that every caregiver wonders about. The answers are both to the point, poignant and typical, as typical as one can expect from a disease so unusual and challenging – to the caregiver and the patient.
