In the Moment

You're not alone in your caregiving role! This is about the journey taken by a brother and sister caring for their mother with dementia. The story begins just before the mother's dementia diagnosis and the passing of her husband. The journey carries you through six years of experiences from early onset to late-stage dementia. The first part of the book covers many first-time experiences and how to adapt to the ever-changing world of caregiving. The second part of the book covers a more practical side of the caregiving role. This will include age-appropriate activities for each stage of dementia, special meal prep ideas, hygiene, and sample poems created for later stages of dementia and much more. If the time comes to look for an outside caregiver or a dementia care facility this book covers what to look for and questions to ask. Let's make this challenging journey the best quality of life for all those involved.
