Truth, Lies & Alzheimer’s – Its Secret Faces by authors Lisa Skinner and Douglas W. Collins is a concise guide for caregivers navigating the heartbreaking challenges of having a loved one diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia. Everyone has a story about Alzheimer’s. It’s time to start the conversation about Alzheimer’s and stop treating it like it’s only “Family Business.” #starttheconversation
Through a rich trove of stories culled from her years in the eldercare industry, author Lisa Skinner offers insight into the difficult questions families face, including:
- How do I respond to a loved one's false belief?
- Am I abandoning my parent if I place them in the care of professionals?
- How do we make the best of our time left together?
Skinner's original thinking and counter-intuitive solutions provide family members, spouses, children, caregivers, and others with the tools they need to effectively manage the symptoms of brain disease.
Readers will feel empowered to work through the difficulties of the disease and return to what matters - enjoying their remaining time with their loved one.
