Book excerpt: Do you sometimes find it difficult to engage your loved one with dementia? To help them stay calm in the midst of an emotional reaction? To find activities you can share with them that encourage peaceful interaction? This book can help. Thumbing through this beautiful picture book with your loved one is an activity that will capture their attention, engage their mind, and encourage them to relax. It contains gorgeous illustrations of Victorian angels that have been digitally remastered to bring out their original detail, color and contrast. Each illustration is accompanied by a comforting, inspirational quote about angels. You'll find a lot of other picture books out there, mostly for kids. But it's demeaning for seniors to give them books meant for children. Adult photography books are usually large and heavy, and they often include long, frustrating paragraphs of text. At Sunny Street Books, we design books specifically for seniors with dementia. They're lightweight yet high-quality, adult in nature, with no paragraphs of confusing text to distract your loved one from their enjoyment of the images themselves. Families, caregivers, and memory care staff can share this book with the people they care for. It is also an excellent activity for seniors with Parkinson's disease or recovering from a stroke. Seniors with eyesight or strength challenges who find it difficult to hold a heavy book or read long paragraphs of text will also enjoy this book. FEATURES * Beautiful Content This book is filled with carefully-curated, full-color, digitally remastered Victorian angel illustrations accompanied by inspirational quotes about angels. * No Text The only text included in the book consists of the quotes about angels that accompany each illustration. * Manageable Size This is a 40-page, 6" x 9" softcover that's comfortable to hold and easy to tuck into a bag. * High Quality The quality of this book's cover and its interior design are indistinguishable from books created for other readers. Just because a book is simple and uncomplicated doesn't mean it has to be unattractive, unprofessional, or childish. * Discreet Packaging At no time is anything mentioned about Alzheimer's disease, dementia, or any other challenges the reader might be facing. This book can be given to your loved one without fear that they might feel embarrassed or offended. NOTES FOR CAREGIVERS * Sit beside your loved one in a quiet place that is free of distractions. * Allow them to hold the book if possible, and also turn the pages, which will enable them to become more engaged in the book. * Put a pillow in their lap to support the book as you thumb through it together. * Leave this book in an accessible place to allow your loved one to pick it up on their own when you're not there.

Book Synopsis What If It's Not Alzheimer's? by : Gary Radin
Download or read book What If It's Not Alzheimer's? written by Gary Radin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-10-15 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the public most often associates dementia with Alzheimer’s disease, the medical profession continues to advance distinctions of various types of “other” dementias. What If It’s Not Alzheimer’s? is the first and remains the only comprehensive guide dealing with frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), the most common form of dementia for people under 60 years of age. The contributors are either specialists in their fields or have exceptional hands-on experience with FTD sufferers. Beginning with a focus on the medical facts, the first part defines and explores FTD as an illness distinct from Alzheimer's disease. Also considered are clinical and medical care issues and practices, as well as such topics as finding a medical team, palliative approaches to managing care and rehabilitation interventions. The next section on managing care examines the daily care routine including exercise, socialization, adapting the home environment, and behavioral issues along with end-of-life concerns. In the following section on caregiver resources, the contributors identify professional and government assistance programs along with private and community resources and legal options. The final section focuses on the caregiver, in particular the need for respite, holistic health practices and the challenge of managing emotions. This new, completely revised edition continues to follow worldwide collaboration in research and provides the most current medical information available including understanding of the different classifications of FTD, and more clarity regarding the role of genetics. Additionally, essays written by people living with the disease provide moving, first-hand experiences. The wealth of information offered in these pages will help both healthcare professionals and caregivers of someone suffering from frontotemporal degeneration.
