Aging Well 2020 and Caregiving
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99This is the newest and most comprehensive book on both subjects, not technical but conversational and sometimes even humorous. Most books on aging are written by those aged fifty or younger who never experienced the senior years. The authors of this book are 80 and 90 years old. They talk about aging and caregiving from the Old horse’s mouth.
Walter Oleksy, 90, author of more than thirty books and a former Chicago Tribune feature writer, reports the latest medical achievements for Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other afflictions of the elderly. From his own experience as a caregiver, he offers advice on caregiving and nursing home visiting. Avis Carlson wrote a weekly newspaper column on aging for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch when she was 80. She tells about the cons of aging: identity problems, self-esteem, aloneness; and the pros of aging: freedoms in aging, acceptance of age, sex and aging, achieving religious growth, laughing at life and death.

The Alzheimer’s Guidebook
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99Alzheimer’s/Dementia is out there in our world and creating distress and sadness in the lives of millions of people every day, and more in years to come. The number of people with this disease is staggering-MILLIONS! Who is going to be taking care of these people? If it’s not the family, it will be hired caregivers at home or staff in facilities. The concern is, will they be prepared!
Does someone you know–a loved one perhaps, have Alzheimer’s?
Are you concerned for a loved one that has increased forgetfulness, behavior changes and/or has wandered off and forgotten where they were or how to get home?
Do you work with Alzheimer’s patients and feel you would like to have a better understanding of this disease?
Are you having a difficult time coping with someone with this disease and you just don’t know how to handle things or even how the disease will progress?
IF YOU ANSWERED “YES” TO ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU.
This is a simple, easy-to-read, guidebook. It is designed to help you care for and better understand a person with Alzheimer’s. Many people have not been educated on what to expect or how to properly care for someone with this disease.
As a Registered Nurse, working for hospice, I had the opportunity of managing the care of Alzheimer’s/Dementia patients for over nine years, on a daily basis, in many aspects of their disease process. I shared in the lives of their families as I listened, watched, learned and took notes. From those notes, I comprised this guidebook. It includes actual stories told from the families who have dealt with this disease, personal experiences, factual information, and is put together with tips and scenarios.
MY HOPE, AS THE WRITER OF THIS BOOK, IS THAT BY SHARING THIS INFORMATION, PEOPLE WILL HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THIS DISEASE, AND THEY WILL RESPOND TO SITUATIONS WITH COMPASSION, SO THAT THE DIGNITY OF THE PATIENT IS MAINTAINED AND BETTER CARE IS PROVIDED. AT THE SAME TIME, BY HAVING THIS INFORMATION, THEY WILL BE FILLED WITH MORE ENJOYABLE, EASIER DAYS AS SITUATIONS ARISE, VERSUS DAYS WITH TROUBLES, STRESS, SADNESS AND THE LACK OF ADEQUATE CARE.
