This book covers a VERY WIDE VARIETY of TOPICS WELL. It's just that as a care giver, you don't have that kind of time to read everything, and continue giving good care. Read through the Table of Contents and hit the sections that "strike" / "Call out to" you. Somewhere in the beginning of the book, it does say that. That said, I got my answers about the seniors behaviors. "What to Do If...." sections are helpful for a lot of occurences. I felt like it covered 98 % of what you will run into. That is pretty good. My senior was exhausting me with his needs[take me here; take me there....Can you pick up for me...(I call to ask which one do you want...Oh, while you are there, can you also get....and then go....). I needed to set boundaries (I have something to do afterwards, next time I will...). I failed to set boundaries. I burned out, and then had to cut off contact [put on my oxygen mask], once, twice, and then for months on end. I found other 'friends' burned out and 'just disappeared'....The senior attends a senior day care now; happy as a clam. I have remade contact, but just don't make it a regular thing like before.

Have just started reading this book which has explained, in layman’s terms, what a family member is currently experiencing which helps me understand how to interact. Excellent book.

A most amazing book. I wish I had this years ago. It would have helped so much with lots of frustration we have had. I would tell anyone dealing with a relative or friend with dementia, to please buy the book and read.

全編をとおして細やかな心配りにあふれた内容に感動しながら読めます。同時に自分の将来を見るようで辛くなります。９８歳の母はまだしっかりしていますが、いつかここに書かれていることが起こるのではないかと思うと人ごとではありません。日本にはこういう本がないのが残念です。
