Rating:  Summary: Touching & Tender--A Great Help for Caregivers Review: Dorothy's experience of caring for her beloved husband with Alzheimer's Disease will help others who are starting the caregiving journey for a loved one with dementia. Although the specifics of each caregiver's journey vary, the common element is the roller coaster of emotions that caregivers experience, yet they feel they are the only ones going through it. You will identify with the love, the frustration, the sorrow and the small joys, which non-caregivers can't truly understand until they are there. This book will help you cope and make you feel less alone with your own unique situation.Jacqueline Marcell, Author, Elder Rage
Rating:  Summary: Even Experience Caregivers can learn from this one. Review: I found Dorothy Snyder's book to be extremely interesting and helpful. Even though I am a caregiver of 5 years to my father-in law who has this disease, I have yet to experience the very last days. This book helped me to "forsee" what awaits me ahead and has helped me to better prepare for those days. At the same time, I found that many of the techniques she used while caring for her husband are the same ones that I currently use to take care of my father-in-law. I was surprised to see that these techniques works for others like they have for me. A very good read!!
