What we like best about these books:

Alzheimer¡¯s disease and other degenerative neurological disorders present unfathomable challenges, both for the person with the condition and their caregiver. The most common feeling shared by caregivers is isolation and the sense that they are first and only person to have to deal with such issues. They are not. And in these books Kathy Laurenhue offers time-proven advice and suggestions with activities of daily living and caregiving. Each page provides valuable advice, tips and guides in dealing with common challenges of dementia.
