Book Description
This is a book for lay people - those who live with Alzheimer's in their family. The book focuses on family relations as impacted by the illness and as a source for strength and coping. The book helps readers navigate through the experiences of dementia with the help of a phase model of Alzheimer's - a map which describes the common challenges faced by families from the very first symptoms to the end of life. It provides concrete suggestions for tapping family strengths to help cope with the special challenges of dementing illness.
