Description
From the earliest indicators and faint forebodings to the eventual grim diagnosis, Deborah Shouse carries readers along on the difficult—and at times joyous—road she and her parents walked through the Land of Dementia—Alzheimer's disease. She shares the challenges she faced during the process of caring for both parents as her mother slowly vanished, to be replaced by a difficult but surprisingly no less valued and beloved stranger. Strong, fluid organization and tender writing distinguish this purposeful and compelling read on a heartbreaking subject filled with unexpected insights. In addition to its spiritual message, Love in the Land of Dementia includes practical suggestions and support for caregivers and other family members.
