Overview

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.
