March 11, 2008: Quick read that's full of useful tips & suggestions. The author has detailed the methods that she used in handling her mother, some of which were very illuminating. I only wish she had concentrated more on the early stages of the disease because that's where I am with my mother, but I'm sure I'll use many of her suggestions along the way. It always helps to hear another caregiver's story, even if right now only a few things apply to your situation. This book has helped me to learn what may be down the road. You'll enjoy it!!
