Guide for Caregivers of Aging Parents with Alzheimer's: Words of Assistance, Comfort and Inspiration

If you are interested in this book, you're probably in a similar situation as I find myself. I'm a baby boomer who is helping to care for a loved one with Alzheimer's. In my case, it's my 94-year old mother. How we may differ is that I'm also a grief and relationship coach, and I have had experience helping people deal with difficulties brought on by change and loss. Of course, it's a lot easier to offer assistance to others than to put these same suggestions to use in your own life. However, I try my best. In fact, that's why I've written this book. It's to constantly remind me about how I can best respond to my own difficult situation. The words of assistance, comfort and inspiration contained within these pages cannot make your parents well again. However, your power lies in how you choose to respond to their illness and failing health issues. This book provides you with concrete suggestions on how to handle common situations you will encounter. Additionally, it offers you an alternate perspective on how to view your changing circumstances as you become the parent and your parent the child.
