Updated in 2018, this reader-friendly book offers step-by-step instructions for comforting those with Alzheimer's disease and for supporting family members who provide ongoing care. Compelling stories illustrate the challenges of dementia: from Velma, an Arkansas sharecropper's daughter, to Willa, a physician once considered a candidate for Surgeon General, and many more. Cail uses insightful strategies and “do and don't” conversation guides to deliver a realistic message of help and hope in a clear, sympathetic voice. Filled with practical and empowering advice, this book is essential reading for friends and loved ones, as well as concerned professionals and community members.
