"The Family Guide to Alzheimer's Disease" is an indispensable resource offering encouragement and instruction to those affected by Alzheimer’s Disease. For many families, Alzheimer’s means a gradually diminishing quality of life both for the sufferer and caregivers. All too often, the disease has led to isolation—and even a certain social stigma. It can impose psychological and emotional burdens just as heavy as the physical one.
"The Family Guide to Alzheimer’s Disease" was created to help families understand what to expect; deal effectively with the challenge of this disease; help their loved ones meet each day more successfully; and improve the quality of life for all involved.
