What would you do if your mother was having memory problems? Do you suspect your mother or wife has Alzheimer’s, or perhaps you are having problems with your own memory. What should you do? What tests should your doctor perform and what do the results mean? What is Alzheimer’s disease; what does it feel like; what does it look like? What are the best tests to determine if it is Alzheimer’s disease and what are the best treatments? The truth is, once there are signs of memory loss, you need a plan and that’s what The Alzheimer’s Action Plan provides.
The book explains the disease, treatment and how to maintain as independent a life as possible – from the early stages to middle stages and even when it becomes more than memory loss. Written by some of the country’s most respected experts on dementia, this book is "must read" and valuable resource – for persons with mild memory loss or early AD, their caregivers and healthcare professionals.
"Clear, compassionate and empowering, The Alzheimer’s Action Plan is the first book that anyone dealing with mild memory loss or early Alzheimer’s must read in order to preserve the highest possible quality of life for as long as possible."
Authors: P. Murali Doraiswamy, Lisa P. Gwyther, Tina Adler (449 pp)
What we like best about this book:
For years the primary resource on the toipic of Alzheimer's disease was The 36-Hour Day. For those who wanted to learn all that they could about AD, it still remains the ultimate resource, however, The Alzheimer's Action Plan fills the void -- not only in providing excellent, up-to-date information about Alzheimer's, but more importantly what to do if and when it appears. This book provides clear and expert answers to the very questions you are probably asking.
