    About this ebook

    I am Dr. Jack Rosenberg. My wife’s mother is suffering from severe dementia and we have gone down the same road that you are walking on right now; facing the same heartbreaking decisions that you face. It is my purpose to empower you to make good decisions for your loved one’s health using the knowledge and experience I’ve obtained as a medical doctor for the past 20+ years.

    It was months of frustration for me to learn the ins and outs of all the documentation, legal forms and information that I needed to compile in order to get the treatment necessary for my mother-in-law. I hope that by reading this book, you’ll change your perspective and get organized to make caring for your loved ones a little easier.
