"Alzheimers Disease- You Can Survive"will map out a clear and practical plan for caring for yourself and your loved one, living healthy and overcoming the challenges of caring for someone with Alzheimer’s Disease
WHEN YOU FIRST FOUND
out that your loved one had Alzheimer’s disease and you realized that you would have primary responsibility for their care, you probably experienced a wave of emotions: concern, fear, confusion, maybe even anger. You probably heard so much about the disease from friends and other family members and seen others go through the challenges associated with the disease that you were uncertain about your ability to cope. However, despite the fact that Alzheimer’s disease is a serious condition and being a caregiver to someone with the disease can be an overwhelming experience that can lead to burnout. And, despite the fact that it can bring irreversible changes to lives and relationships causing many caregivers to try balancing their role with job and family responsibilities, the good news is that there is a lot you can do to stay healthy and improve your quality of life as you journey through the unchartered waters of Alzheimer’s caregiving.There are millions of Alzheimer’s caregivers, just like you, all over the world who provide invaluable care to family and friends and are able to continue living healthy and fulfilled lives. One in eight older Americans has Alzheimer’s disease. It is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. Over 15 million Americans provide unpaid care for persons with Alzheimer’s or other Dementia. In Canada one in every five Canadians provide some form of care for seniors with Alzheimer’s disease and family caregivers contribute over $5 billion dollars of unpaid care. There are estimated to be over 670,000 people in the UK acting as the primary caregivers for people with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias and contributing over 8 billion pounds in unpaid care.
Always keep in mind that how well you fare during this journey is determined by you. Being a caregiver to someone with Alzheimer’s disease is something that you can manage well, by making some important lifestyle changes including mental, physical and spiritual changes. When you take the reins and make a conscious decision to survive, you will!
I have seen this firsthand in my life, and that of family members and friends who have changed their approach to caregiving and have reaped the benefits-Alzheimers Disease- Loves Lives On will map out a clear and practical plan for living healthy, overcoming the challenges of Alzheimer’s caregiving and surviving the journey physically, socially and emotionally sound. Once you know what the Alzheimer’s disease is, how it affects your loved one and in turn you and others around and you sincerely want to make life easier and happier for you and your loved ones you’ll feel more in control and less afraid of life and the future as a primary caregiver.
