Primary caregivers are the most important people in the diminished
life of anyone who has progressive dementia, such as Alzheimer's
Disease, Parkinson's Disease, and Huntington's Chorea. Dementia in
all its progressive forms has a devastating impact on caregivers
and other family members. They experience guilt, stress in the
extreme, exhaustion, and numerous other serious problems that
affect their physical, mental, and spiritual health. This book
inspires and empowers caregivers so that they can maintain their
own health, happiness, and sanity in order to provide loving care
for the person who is ill. With descriptions of the problems and
exercises to help in finding solutions, the book covers: the needs
of caregivers; communication and feelings; grief and its various
phases; sharing and support; and, stress management techniques for
everyone involved.
