Navigating the Dementia Journey: A Compassionate Guide to Understanding, Supporting, and Living With Dementia

Book Synopsis: If you want to help stop dementia from robbing your loved one’s chance to enjoy life to its fullest, then keep reading…What was your first reaction when your loved one had been diagnosed with dementia? Perhaps like many who find themselves in a similar situation, you felt immediate sadness and grief. Maybe you also felt afraid… since you’re uncertain of what the coming days will be like and how it would affect your loved one. It's completely understandable – after all, dementia has been branded "the silent thief," stealing a person’s memories, identity, and independence. And for some dementia patients, it’s even worse – it has also taken away their family and friends.

In fact, a report revealed that one in seven people with dementia in the U.S. live by themselves, with up to 50% of them having no identifiable caregiver. However, your loved one does not have to be among those who suffer from dementia alone. Instead of being driven away by the negative aspects hounding the condition, you can offer the help and support they need now more than ever.

Fostering strong connections with people with dementia is extremely crucial. According to a study, having a close relationship with caregivers may slow down the progression of a patient’s decline. This means that while you cannot rid them of their condition, you can give them care… so they can enjoy life a little longer.

The key is to have a better understanding of dementia so you’ll know how to face it head-on. Fortunately, this book will provide you with everything you need to know so you can hold your loved one’s hand – literally and figuratively – while addressing their needs.

Inside, here is just a small fraction of what you will discover:

• What happens inside the mind of a person with dementia… and why they become completely different than they used to be as the condition progresses
• 100+ practical steps to take care of your loved one with dementia – how to meet their needs from nutrition and hygiene, to sleeping and coping with memory loss
