Do you know • that Alzheimer’s is one of many forms of dementia and the predominant one? • that there is currently not a cure for this disease? • the difference between old-age symptoms and Alzheimer’s? • the signs of Alzheimer’s and the tests available online that you can use to test for Alzheimer’s? • what to do if your family member is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s? • where you can find help to learn more? • the various types of facilities available for your family member? • how to determine which facility is the best for your family member? • the purpose of hospice and the significance of when they are called? • what medical, legal, and financial actions you should take in supporting your family member? The answers to these questions and more are in this book, and it includes a checklist of things to do with and for your family member. All profits of this book will go to Alzheimer’s disease charities. Both authors have years of hands-on personal experience in dealing with this deadly disease as well as other forms of dementia. Their first-hand knowledge is based on dealing with and caring for their family members with dementia.
