Book Synopsis Where Has Grandma Gone? by : Anne F. Butler
Download or read book Where Has Grandma Gone? written by Anne F. Butler and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-04-22 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a mental health therapist contracted at a nursing home and rehab for thirteen years, I had the opportunity to observe the reactions of children visiting a loved one. My clients were those with mental health issues, various kinds of dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease. Most of these would spend the rest of their lives there. It was especially disturbing to see the responses or lack of responses of the children visiting Alzheimer’s patients. It was so obvious they did not understand the change in their loved one, and it made them fearful. Also, the patient, most often a grandparent, would be disturbed that the child did not respond to them as they remembered. It was even more disturbing to a child, as their loved one moved through the more advanced stages of Alzheimer’s. Due to my concern for these children, I wanted to write a story that would help them understand Alzheimer’s disease and dispel their fear. Where Has Grandma Gone? is a story to be read by the child. Later pages will contain information for the adult reader. The writing of this book has been my dream for many years as I’ve seen the need for such a book. My prayer is that this book will be of great value to all those having to deal with Alzheimer’s disease. May God bless the reader and strengthen them in all their ways.

Book Synopsis Grandma, It's Me! A Children's Book about Dementia by : Y. Y. Chan
Download or read book Grandma, It's Me! A Children's Book about Dementia written by Y. Y. Chan and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-07 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riley loves spending time with her grandparents, but after visiting them one day, she notices Grandma doesn't recognize her. Mommy explains that Grandma may have dementia, so her memory isn't as good as it used to be. Riley tries her best to help Grandma remember and writes about their time together in her diary. This uplifting and touching story encourages young readers to support and care for the elderly with love, patience and understanding. Written as a series of diary entries, Grandma, It's Me! also encourages journaling as a way to process emotions and feelings in order to become resilient to face life's many challenges. Foreword by Teresa B.K.Tsien, Gerontologist Hong Kong Alzheimer's Disease Association Board Member "Ms. Chan wrote Grandma, It's Me! with experience from her caregiving journey with her grandmother. The story was written with a dash of humor and lots of love from a child's perspective. It helps to take away some of the mystery, and reminds us that even though the disease has changed the mind and body, the person with dementia is still there, and still loves us. She has illustrated an important message that people with dementia might not remember the events, but they will always remember the feelings that they experienced. I highly recommend this book to families and schools." Endorsed and Recommended by Dementia and Alzheimer's Professionals and families "I found that many aspects of dementia / Alzheimer's were touched upon. I see this process every day in my profession. One of my very favorite sayings is "to love them through it". This is a shining example of doing just that-loving someone through it." - Cindy Swanda LPN Memory Support Director, Fremont, Nebraska, USA "The book has been a blessing for me-I think for the past two years taking care of my mom, I sometimes have a picture in my mind that is full of grey-and oh so dreary! This has lifted my spirit up and I find that nowadays, even when I think of my mom, the picture has become more colorful." - Serene Low, Singapore Five Star Reviews from Readers' Favorite "... Grandma, It's Me! A Children's Book about Dementia, is a caring, compassionate way to teach young readers about memory loss and how they can help... Young readers will certainly connect with Riley's feelings as she deals with a difficult and confusing situation affecting someone she loves. The power of love shines through this touching story. Beautifully told." - Emily-Jane Hills Orford for Readers' Favorite "... This book offers so many wonders in learning about the journey of loved ones living with dementia or Alzheimer's and those who care for them... I was able to personally connect with Grandma, It's Me! by Y. Y. Chan because I've had six aunts that lived in a state of dementia for over ten years... Since dementia and Alzheimer's is occurring in many homes, children need to have the tools and a better understanding of what is happening right before their eyes. It was difficult for me as an adult and it can become tiring as Riley witnessed, but with helping her grandma to tap into music, photos, and sharing other memories, this journey can become a beautiful experience. I loved this book and highly recommend it for young and old alike." - Vernita Naylor for Readers' Favorite Resources and Activity Pack available for download here: https: //bit.ly/yychan_grandma
