As a RN myself I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend

Revisado: 01-13-21

I bought this book in print for myself, my sister and my dad. My mother was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s and despite being a a critical care nurse with lots of experience caring for patients with varying types and degrees of dementia while in the hospital it in completely a different story when my mother has been diagnosed with it and going through the entirety of the progression. We are only in the first stages. I have read a couple books so far desperately trying to gain as much knowledge in this disease only to be filled with gut wrenching fear but I know knowledge is power so I continue to pick up the next book. This book is AMAZING. Gail’s knowledge and experience and expertise as a nurse has enabled her to write this book in a very methodical way that does not sugar coat the disease but she is able to compassionately talk through this book to the reader as if she is having a conversation with you at a table. I found this book comforting and filled with hope despite the fact that there is no cure for this disease and our loved ones demise is a bleak one. I am very confident that this book will possibly be my #1 go to resource as I help my dad care for my mother. If it’s not my #1 it will be one of my top 3 hands down abd I have at least 8 books to read still...please read this book and PLEASE listen to her suggestions about the binder to have prepared for those hospital visits. That binder she talks about to have on hand with all that information included is pure gold to those nurses and doctors taking care of your loved one. You have no idea how massively important we need that information and how most the time no one has that information readily available.
