Dr. Ruth's Guide for the Alzheimer's Caregiver: How to Care for Your Loved One without Getting Overw

I've been a caregiver for my husband for 4 years & have read many books. Dr. Ruth is right on target with her frank, nonjudgmental discussion of the topic. She seems to face head on many of the emotions & thoughts that come with this new role that you are just not comfortable mentioning to people who are not walking this path.

I would recommend this to anyone whose life is touched by someone with Alzheimer's.

Dr. Ruth outlines some very practical ways to help your loved one with Alzheimer's by doing subtle routine every day things such as cooking, establishing a normal routine that help your loved one feel at peace. That was my first reading. If I go back and study her techniques more carefully, I am sure I will see some things I may have missed. A very good read.
