Written on April 11, 2007 Summary: A must for family members of people with dementia Actually a rather depressing book, but invaluable in helping you prepare for what is to come. If a loved one has exhibited signs of dementia, this is definitely a book you want to read - recommended by my mother's physician, it has been a God-send to our family.  Written on April 2, 2007 Summary: If you wanted a handbook on Alzheimers/Dementia this is it! This book has helped my sister and I come to grips with our mother's condition. I return to it for reference from time to time, and always come away with more useful "tips" each time. Worth it at twice the price. Written on March 11, 2007 Summary: The 36-Hour Day: A Family Guide to Caring for Persons with Alzheimer Disease, etc. A wonderful resource for the people who are dealing with family members or friends who have dementia or Alzheimers disease. It gives concise information and where to go for further help. Written on March 9, 2007 Summary: The 36 Hour Day I had the opportunity to have this book discussed by a colleague for me. I decided it would be worth my time to read. I was impressed by the wealth of information regarding persons who develop types of dementia and ways to provide appropriate care for them as well as caring for the care giver. It is appropriate for families as well as facilities such as nursing homes which care for these persons. It has been very insighrful for me as a chaplain and I continue to recommend it to others. Written on March 1, 2007 Summary: Very imformative, very helpful suggestions, deals well with a difficult topic If you have a family member or friend that is showing signs of dimentia, you owe it to yourself to read this book. It's not easy to read, because the subject is a hard one if you are exposed to someone with diminishing mental functions, but that's not the books fault. I have read about 40% of it, and have already learned more than I have in all of my other research on the Internet and in reading a couple of other books and talking to many people. It's well written, the language is easy to read (even if the subject matter is difficult to face), and it provides factual information that is entirely relevant. There is a chapter that explains many of the behavior changes you may face, with excellent suggestions on how to deal with each of them. Most sound like common sense once you read them, some are counterintuitive, but I believe all are more effective than what I had been doing. Knowing the most loving responses to a situation doesn't always give you the ability to implement them in the moment, but knowing is better than ignorance. Parts of this book are worth reading a few times, as you learn and try things and come back and review what's working and what isn't in re-reading the key parts of the book. I highly recommend the book. |
