Book excerpt: "Hell No I Don't Remember, I Have Alzheimer's!" were the very words spoken by one of our loved ones when asked if they remembered. Dementia and Alzheimer's are inordinate diseases that steal away the thoughts, memories, and perspectives of those impacted. They are villains that corrode the filters of one's mind leaving them open for more decay. Four authors have collaborated to share their experiences about the reality of caring for loved ones who have dementia/Alzheimer’s. If you are struggling with this disease as a caregiver, you will undoubtedly identify with many of the same experiences. It is our hope that our shared stories give you solace in knowing others are walking this journey with you. You are not alone. Perhaps you can find a respite in each chapter and take away valuable information.

Book Synopsis What If It's Not Alzheimer's? by : Gary Radin

Download or read book What If It's Not Alzheimer's? written by Gary Radin. This book was released on 2022-10-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the public most often associates dementia with Alzheimer’s disease, the medical profession continues to advance distinctions of various types of “other” dementias. What If It’s Not Alzheimer’s? is the first and remains the only comprehensive guide dealing with frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), the most common form of dementia for people under 60 years of age. The contributors are either specialists in their fields or have exceptional hands-on experience with FTD sufferers. Beginning with a focus on the medical facts, the first part defines and explores FTD as an illness distinct from Alzheimer's disease. Also considered are clinical and medical care issues and practices, as well as such topics as finding a medical team, palliative approaches to managing care and rehabilitation interventions. The next section on managing care examines the daily care routine including exercise, socialization, adapting the home environment, and behavioral issues along with end-of-life concerns. In the following section on caregiver resources, the contributors identify professional and government assistance programs along with private and community resources and legal options. The final section focuses on the caregiver, in particular the need for respite, holistic health practices and the challenge of managing emotions. This new, completely revised edition continues to follow worldwide collaboration in research and provides the most current medical information available including understanding of the different classifications of FTD, and more clarity regarding the role of genetics. Additionally, essays written by people living with the disease provide moving, first-hand experiences. The wealth of information offered in these pages will help both healthcare professionals and caregivers of someone suffering from frontotemporal degeneration.

Book Synopsis Undefeated Innocence by : Cheryl Crofoot Knapp

Download or read book Undefeated Innocence written by Cheryl Crofoot Knapp. This book was released on 2017-03-27. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you wonder where God is in Alzheimer's? Are you searching for hope in caregiving? I searched too--I lost both of my parents to Alzheimer's. They were its innocent victims. Caregiving for someone with Alzheimer's can be painfully brutal. We know how it ends. There is no cure. It doesn't get better. But I learned that we don't have to be defeated by it. And there is much grace and collateral beauty to be found in the journey. From broken memories to broken bones, Alzheimers catalyzed terror and defeat in my family. My parents were terrorized by the scrambling of their minds. We who loved them had to suffocate our feelings of defeat as they returned to innocence. As a caregiver, God allowed me to share in my parents passages back to undefeated innocence. I gained loving moments that I would have missed if I hadnt been involved and if I hadnt taken up the proper vantage point to see them. Undefeated Innocence offers hope to caregivers by weaving poignant personal experiences, humor, and biblical stories with a study of the Beatitudes. It answers Where is God? in Alzheimers. It confirms that caregiving experiences are abnormally normal, and its okay to store toothpaste in an underwear drawer. Undefeated Innocence reveals Gods grace through the storms and affirms that caregivers are not alone in wondering if life can return to a place of peace.
