Loving Someone Who Has Dementia: How to Find Hope while Coping with Stress and Grief

CARE BOOK OF THE WEEK:

This book doesn’t tell you how to get your Dad to take a shower. It doesn’t tell you how to take the car keys away from your mother. It doesn’t tell you when it’s time for assisted living or nursing home care. Instead, it tells you how not to go crazy right along with your loved one. Actually, it helps you understand that you aren’t crazy — the conflicting emotions you’re feeling are normal. Because it is a journey … a long and tiring journey. But Pauline Boss can help you see the benefits of the journey again.

Caring for dementias such as Alzheimer's among family and friends, Peter committed to help preserve the dignity of people affected by Alzheimer's. AlzheimersWeekly.com is the fruit of that commitment.

This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.
