As a new caregiver I asked our Doctors about what my role was. In return I received technical papers about Alzheimer's or small booklets which were written in vague generalities. This book by Nataly Rubinstein clearly explains the disease, the impact on the patient and the role of the caregiver. I constantly refer to it as the disease progresses and try to react in the most caring way that I can. The book is truly a road map and a survival guide.
