A diagnosis of dementia in a loved one is frightening. Many spouses and

family members face a “long goodbye” as they walk this pathway with their

loved ones. In this interview Sharon Betters asks Dr. John Dunlop, author

of Finding Grace in the Face of Dementia, to define dementia, the stages of

dementia, what it is like to care for a loved one with dementia, and more.

Dr. Dunlop’s compassion and passion for equipping and caring for older

people comes through in his responses. He reminds us that every person is

made in the image of God and that truth needs to be the grid through which

we view those with dementia and the kind of care we give.
