“By drawing upon the words of caregivers who have walked the journey of dementia, the authors cast much needed light upon this long and winding road. Through the experience of caring for loved ones, these unsung heroes have made the path less difficult for others who will follow in their footsteps.” – Daniel Kuhn, MSW, Director of Education, Mather LifeWays Institute on Aging
