Alzheimer's/Dementia from the Experiences of a Caregiver

If you are a caregiver, or know someone who is, you owe it to yourself
to read this book. It is very important to know the phases of Alzheimer's
as well as the effects it has, not only on the patient, but on those who
care for, or live with the patient.
If you know someone who is struggling with the challenge you need
to know how to help them. This book will give you insight into the
challenges of dementia and Alzheimer's from the prospective of a
caregiver who started attending caregivers meetings shortly after he
realized that his wife was having unusual challenges and behaviors.
Frederick and Marjorie were caregivers for about three
years for a couple from their church. They were not able
to get satisfactory help from family members or friends
so they stepped in and got the appropriate legal Power
of Attorney and helped them get into assisted living. We
took care of their needs until they passed away. During this period we
learned a lot about care giving.
Frederick has been caregiver for his wife Marjorie for eleven years. His
wish is that the book he has written will get into the hands of those who
are just beginning to recognize there is a problem as well as those who
may be experiencing many years as a caregiver. He also wants people
to know that getting help early on is very important and makes the
challenge of care giving much easier.
For over forty years Frederick has served as Minister of Music/Organist
in eleven churches in New Jersey, Massachusetts and Georgia. He
attended Northeastern Bible College and Seminary in Essex Fells, New
Jersey, and International Christian College and Seminary in Plymouth,
Florida where he earned a Bachelor of Music and a Masters in Ministry.
