All too often dementia can take everything from the caregiver too.

If you have someone you care about who has dementia it can feel like the world is pressing down on you. Not only do you need to take care of the person in need but you also need to take care of yourself. It can feel impossible. But it doesn’t have to be. This book will help you take care of your loved one’s need the right way. From start to finish.

Caregiver’s are the custodians of memories

“Dementia Caregiver’s Guide” is a practical companion for the caregiving community where empathy meets action. It transparently educates readers on all things dementia-related. They will learn that dementia is not a linear condition and that caregiving is not a one-size-fits-all position. Dementia presents a multifaceted disruption of cognitive function, and memory loss is only the tip of the iceberg. You will learn about the different types of dementia: Alzheimer's, vascular, frontal temporal, and Lewy body. It is important to diagnose the dementia type because care and medications should be tailored to every individual case. You will also have a greater understanding of how the brain and emotions change when dealing with dementia: anger, denial, bargaining, depression, and ultimately acceptance are all common. “Dementia, in its cruel unyielding progression, does not follow a single path but instead weaves through the fabric of cognition and personality in unpredictable patterns.” I appreciated the emphasis the author put on the importance of dementia caregivers. They play a role in assisting and advocacy and must be adaptable. Caregivers are the “custodians of memories.” The author thoughtfully reminds the audience that caregivers must have emotional support, too, and engage in consistent self-care. If you are a seasoned caregiver or about to become a caregiver, you will want to partner with this book.
