Reviews"Excellent guidance and clear information of a kind that the family needs... The authors offer realistic advice that sometimes it is better to concede the patient's frailties than try to do something about them, and that a compassionate sense of humor often helps." --New York Times, "An excellent, practical manual for families and professionals involved in the care of persons with progressive illnesses... The book is specific and thought-provoking, and it will be helpful to anyone even remotely involved with an 'impaired' person... Highly recommended, especially for public and nursing libraries." -- Library Journal, "An excellent, practical manual for families and professionals involved in the care of persons with progressive illnesses... The book is specific and thought-provoking, and it will be helpful to anyone even remotely involved with an 'impaired' person...

Memory & Alzheimer Disease
Every family should read this book, even if they do not have a loved one with memory issues. The book will explain many issues to look for and how to deal with those issues. It was over a year before I figured out what was happening to my loved one, then and only then was I told about "The 36-Hour Day" book. Every family, please purchase a copy and read it, then reread it. Your eyes and mind will be opened up.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Last year a friend told me about this book and knew I would benefit from the valuable information as my husband was going through a very rough year and that meant I was also.
