Dementia: The Journey of Caring for our Father at Home: A Brother's and Sister's Story

The purpose of this book is to tell the story of our experiences in caring for our father who suffers from dementia. This book is not written by professional caregivers or medical professionals. It is, rather, written by us, a brother (Paul) and sister (Jean) who are faced with the challenges of providing daily care for our father in our home. We do not offer medical advice nor clinically proven solutions. Instead, what we offer are insights and practical solutions to problems and struggles that any person caring for a loved one with dementia will likely face. All of it comes out of real life experiences we have had with our own father, and nothing else. Each chapter in this book, written in story form, focuses on a specific aspect in our Dad's life. In this book, we have included photographs of our father. Most of these pictures were taken at the very moment of an "event." A free mp3 download of the original song, "I'm Still Here" is included with the purchase of this book.
